复杂的分割结构（插入语）的理解 例231

例231　I have discovered, as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized resignation from the editorship of She after a build-up of stress, that abandoning the doctrine of "juggling your life", and making the alternative move into "downshifting" brings with it far greater rewards than financial success and social status.

【结构分析】主干是I have discovered that...，动词和宾语之间有很长的插入语as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized resignation from the editorship of She after a build-up of stress，后面是that引导的宾语从句，宾语从句的主语是两个动名词短语abandoning the doctrine of "juggling your life"和making the alternative move into "downshifting"，宾语从句的动词是brings，宾语是far greater rewards。

【亮点回放】此句话的亮点在于插入语特别长，很有气势，而且宾语从句很有特色，里面居然用了两个超级动名词短语abandoning the doctrine of "juggling your life"和making the alternative move into "downshifting"，后面的宾语上还有比较级，值得学习的是作文可以用长的并列的动名词短语。

【核心词汇】

much-publicized resignation　公开地辞去

editorship　编辑一职

【参考译文】或许正像凯尔西在不堪积劳重负而公开地辞去她在《她》杂志社的编辑一职之后一样，我已经发现，放弃那种“为生活忙碌”的人生信条并转而追求比较悠闲的生活带给你的回报远远大于经济成功和社会地位。
