主谓被隔开：为什么找不到谓语

The digital services tax now awaits the signature of President Emmanuel Macron, who has expressed support for the measure, and it could go into effect within the next few weeks.

主干The digital services tax awaits the signature and it could go into effect

数字服务税现在等待马克龙总统的签署，他已表达对该措施支持，它可能在几周内生效。

看点本句主谓未被隔开，tax awaits和it could go都很紧凑，who从句修饰Macron，别把has expressed当成主句谓语。

If it is trying to upset Google, which relies almost wholly on advertising, it has chosen an indirect method: there is no guarantee that DNT by default will become the norm.

主干it has chosen an indirect method

如果它试图让谷歌不安（谷歌几乎全靠广告），它选择了一个间接方法：无法保证默认DNT成为常态。

看点从句中Google和relies被which隔开；主句主语it和谓语has chosen紧挨。别把which从句的relies当成主句谓语。

Psychologist Nina Strohminger at the University of Pennsylvania, who was not involved in the study, says she wants the effect to be real but cannot rule out some unknown confounding variable.

主干Psychologist Nina Strohminger says she wants the effect but cannot rule out variable

宾夕法尼亚大学心理学家尼娜·斯特罗明格（未参与该研究）说，她希望该效应是真的，但无法排除某些未知混淆变量。

看点典型主谓被隔开。主语后挂了介词短语at...和who定语从句，把主句谓语says推到很远的地方。

In particular, they called for forging closer collaborations with western state governments, which are often uneasy with federal action, and with the private landowners who control an estimated 95% of the prairie chicken’s habitat.

主干they called for forging collaborations with governments and with landowners

特别是，他们呼吁与西部各州政府（常对联邦行动不安）及控制草原榛鸡栖息地约95%的私人土地所有者建立更密切合作。

看点主谓they called for未隔开，但宾语collaborations后跟了极长修饰语（which从句和and并列的with短语），易把are当成谓语迷失主干。

But to win over these young workers, manufacturers have to clear another major hurdle: parents, who lived through the worst US economic downturn since the Great Depression, telling them to avoid the factory.

主干manufacturers have to clear hurdle: parents

但为了争取这些年轻工人，制造商必须清除另一主要障碍：经历了大萧条以来最糟经济衰退、叫孩子远离工厂的父母。

看点冒号后parents被who定语从句和telling分词短语重重包裹，同位语内部的核心词被修饰语隔断，导致读完修饰才看到核心词。

A return to that version of scientific literacy, which focused more on teaching what science is and how it works and less on memorizing scientific facts, seems like something society today desperately needs.

主干A return seems like something

回到那种科学素养版本（更注重教科学是什么及如何运作，较少注重记忆科学事实），似乎是当今社会迫切需要的东西。

看点典型主谓被隔开。主语A return后挂了to介词短语和which定语从句（内含and并列），把主句谓语seems推到句末，极易把focused当成主句谓语。
