状语从句（一）：时间、原因、条件、让步

Marketers have embraced the two-step flow because it suggests that if they can just find and influence the influentials, those select people will do most of the work for them.

主干Marketers have embraced the two-step flow because it suggests that...

营销人员已经接受了两级传播，因为这表明，如果他们能够找到并影响那些有影响力的人，这些被挑选出来的人就会为他们完成大部分工作。

看点because引导原因从句交代为何接受，if引导条件从句嵌套在宾语从句中，只是suggests的假设前提。

Sadly, the spirit of inquiry once at home on campus has been replaced by the use of the humanities and social sciences as vehicles for publicizing “progressive,” or left-liberal propaganda.

主干the spirit of inquiry has been replaced by the use...

遗憾的是，曾经在校园里常见的探究精神，已经被利用人文和社会科学作为宣传“进步”或左翼自由主义宣传的工具所取代。

看点本句无状语从句，只有副词Sadly和介词短语as vehicles作状语，切勿把介词短语误判为从句。

Some species of trees have been “read out of the party” by economics-minded foresters because they grow too slowly, or have too low a sale value to pay as timber crops.

主干Some species of trees have been “read out of the party” because they grow too slowly, or have too low a sale value...

一些树种被具有经济头脑的林务官“开除出局”，因为它们生长得太慢，或者作为木材作物的销售价值太低。

看点because引导原因状语从句，解释被开除出局的原因，主句才是被强调的结果。

But the market generates interest far beyond its size because it brings together great wealth, enormous egos, greed, passion and controversy in a way matched by few other industries.

主干the market generates interest because it brings together great wealth...

但是，该市场产生的兴趣远超其规模，因为它以很少有其他行业能匹敌的方式将巨额财富、极度自负、贪婪、激情和争议结合在一起。

看点because引导原因从句，解释为何interest远超size，主句是现象，从句是原因。

It is stuck because the euro zone’s dominant powers, France and Germany, agree on the need for greater harmonisation within the euro zone, but disagree about what to harmonise.

主干It is stuck because the euro zone’s dominant powers agree on the need..., but disagree about what to harmonise.

它陷入了停滞，因为欧元区的主导力量法国和德国，在欧元区内需要更大协调这一点上达成了共识，但在协调什么上存在分歧。

看点because引导原因从句，从句内部包含but连接的并列谓语，说明停滞的根源。

These labels encourage style-conscious consumers to see clothes as disposable meant to last only – a wash or two, although they don't advertise that – and to renew their wardrobe every few weeks.

主干These labels encourage consumers to see clothes as disposable and to renew their wardrobe although they don't advertise that

这些标签鼓励注重款式的消费者将衣服视为一次性用品——本意只洗一两次，尽管他们并不这样宣传——并每隔几周更新他们的衣橱。

看点although引导让步状语从句，承认“不宣传”这一事实，但主句encourage才是商家的真实意图，让步被推翻。
