然則，沃爾澤的論點(diǎn)，無論它不充分到何種地步，確實(shí)揭示了資本主義體制中最嚴(yán)重的一個(gè)弱點(diǎn)，即它將某一類人置于社會(huì)中的顯赫地位置，這類人無論以怎樣合法的方式獲得了其物質(zhì)報(bào)償，卻常常缺乏其它那些能喚起他人受戴和欽佩的品質(zhì)。
難句類型：復(fù)雜修飾、插入語、倒裝
解釋：第一個(gè)插入語however deficient 中的however在此不是轉(zhuǎn)折連詞，而是副詞，等于no matter how，但是因?yàn)楹竺娉霈F(xiàn)了no matter how，而作者又追求語言表述的多樣性，所以作者在此使用了however deficient這樣較為少見的(但在gre考試中多見)的語言。
盡管本句的插入語較多，第二個(gè)插入語很長，但是本句的真正難點(diǎn)在倒裝上。破折號(hào)后面的部分是主句賓語的同位語從句，此從句中固定搭配bring a to b被倒裝成了bring to ba。如果把這句話恢復(fù)成正常語序，則是it brings people who, no matter how legitimately they have earned their materiall rewards, often lask those other qualities that evoke affection or admiration to predominant positions in a society。很明顯，這樣的語序會(huì)顯得頭重腳輕。

注：the difficulty (….) of：括號(hào)中的是插入語
難句類型：復(fù)雜修飾、插入語
解釋：本句的插入語不好對(duì)付，一來它的長度比較長，而且修飾層次多，內(nèi)容也不甚好懂，二來這個(gè)插入語正好嵌在difficulty of的中間，割裂了句意。

難句類型：復(fù)雜修飾、插入語、抽象詞
解釋：與前面的絕大多數(shù)句子相比，本句的結(jié)構(gòu)算不上復(fù)雜。但是由于句意抽象，所以讀到the cultivation of individuall powers to be placed in servicee to the comm.unity的時(shí)候容易讀不懂，因?yàn)楹竺娴倪@個(gè)不定式既有可能是修飾cultivation的，也有可能是修飾individual powers的。這里修飾的是后者。而且這里的individual powers to be placed in servicee to the comm.unity不應(yīng)翻譯成“individuall powers to serve the comm.unity”即可。此文強(qiáng)調(diào)這種individual power被置于一種位置、一種定位。當(dāng)然這種細(xì)微的差別不一定會(huì)影響答題，但有時(shí)會(huì)對(duì)文章的理解產(chǎn)生影響。

解釋：讀者們閱讀本句的時(shí)候一定感覺極其別扭。首先，我們盡管知道it has been …that..。這種結(jié)構(gòu)是一種強(qiáng)調(diào)語氣，但是it has thus generally been by way of the emphasis on oral literary creativeity that…看上去就極不舒服。當(dāng)然從語法上講這么說是可以的，可是我們確實(shí)很少見到it has been 和that之間插入這么多東西的說法。解釋一下by way of的意思，就是通過什么樣的方法、通過某種手段的意思。其英文釋義為by the route of，同義詞是via。

這一在第十四條修正案的文本中被復(fù)述的宣言，主要是旨在對(duì)抗法院在“dred scott訴sandford”一案中的判決，此判決裁定，在美國的黑人可被剝奪公民權(quán)。
難句類型：復(fù)雜修飾、插入語
解釋：句中的兩個(gè)插入語分別起到了兩個(gè)有效的分割作用：第一個(gè)隔開了主句的主語和謂語；第二個(gè)分開了作狀語的不定式中的賓語及其同位語從句。
意群訓(xùn)練：this declaration，which was echoed in the text of the fourteenth amendment，was designed primarily to counter the supreme court’s ruling in dred scott v. sandford that black people in the united states could be denied citizenship.
