如何在学习考研英语长难句的同时一举多得?

我们在做题和阅读的过程中，长难句都为我们带来很多理解上的困扰。长难句的解析和学习也成为我们降低语言阅读障碍必不可少的学习内容。

我们在学习长难句时除了理清句子结构

Their analysis ruled out the possibility that it was firms' political influence, rather than their CSR stand, that accounted for the leniency: Companies that contributed more to political campaigns did not receive lower fines.

句子主干：(Their analysis主语)(ruled out谓语)(the possibility宾语)

从句：

1.that it was firms' political influence, that accounted for the leniency为同位语从句，解释possibility, it was (firms' political influence主语), that(accounted for谓语) the (leniency宾语)为强调句型，it is....that...

2.Companies did not receive lower fines为补语，冒号后面可以跟句子对前面内容进行补充说明

3.that contributed more to political campaigns为that引导的定语从句，that指代companies并作定语从句主语

理解句子大意：

参考译文：他们的分析排除了让公司受到宽大处理的原因是其政治影响力而非其企业社会责任立场的这种可能性：对政治活动投入更多的公司并没有处以更少的罚金。
