2018考研英語長難句解析（49）

America's capacity utilization, for example, hit historically high levels earlier this year, and its jobless rate (5.6% in August) has fallen below most estimates of the natural rate of unemployment -- the rate below which inflation has taken off in the past.
    詞匯突破：
    1.capacity utilization產(chǎn)能利用率，也叫設(shè)備利用率，是工業(yè)總產(chǎn)出對生產(chǎn)設(shè)備的比率，簡單的理解，就是實際生產(chǎn)能力到底有多少在運轉(zhuǎn)發(fā)揮生產(chǎn)作用
    2. estimate 名詞;評估
    3. inflation 通貨膨脹
    4. take off 起飛(發(fā)生)
    看完這個句子后判斷下面那個選項是選項：
    A. An extremely low jobless rate will lead to inflation.
    B. A high unemployment rate will result from inflation
    句子解析：
    并列分句一：America’s capacity utilization, for example, hit historically high levels earlier this year,舉個例子，美國的產(chǎn)能利用率在這年的早期時候達到了歷史新高。
    并列分句二：its jobless rate (5.6% in August) has fallen below most estimates of the natural rate of unemployment -- the rate below which inflation has taken off in the past.
    主干識別：its jobless rate (5.6% in August) has fallen below most estimates of the natural rate of unemployment.美國的失業(yè)率已經(jīng)低于大多數(shù)評估的自然失業(yè)率了。
    同位語：the rate= natural rate of unemployment 或者 its jobless rate (5.6% in August);
    定語從句：below which inflation has taken off in the past.(which= natural rate of unemployment)
    調(diào)整一下： inflation has taken off in the past below the natural rate of unemployment.
    在過去，低于自然失業(yè)率，通貨膨脹就會飆升(發(fā)生)了。
    即使你不知道take off 是什么意思，你也就和答案比對就好了。不要糾結(jié)于翻譯本身，我們的目的是作對題!
    below the natural rate of unemployment.(原因)
    inflation has taken off (結(jié)果)
    要判斷下面的兩個選項就要和最后的一個定語從句進行比對：
    [A] An extremely low jobless rate will lead to inflation
    [B] A high unemployment rate will result from inflation
    所以很容易得知A是選項。
