第151句 降格
Priestly explains how the deep blue color of the assistant s sweater descended over the years from fashion shows to department stores and to the bargain bin in which the poor girl doubtless found her garment.
译文:
普利斯特里解释了这位助手毛衣的深蓝色这么多年来是如何降格的:从时装秀降至百货商店,最后再到打折区,这个可怜的女孩肯定是在那里买到了这件衣服。
点睛:
本句为主从复合句,主句是Priestly explains...,how引导的从句作explain的宾语。该宾语从句的主语是the deep blue color,后面的介词短语of the assistant's sweater是其定语,谓语部分是descended from to...and to...,其含义为“从…降至…再降至…”,over the years作时间状语,in which引导的从句作定语,修饰the bargain bin。over the years意为“多年以来”。fashion show指“时装秀”。bargain bin惠为“打折区,廉价商品处理区”。
