复杂的并列句的拆分和理解 例262

例262　Hardy's weakness derived from his apparent inability to control the comings and goings of these impulses and from his unwillingness to cultivate and sustain the energetic and risky ones.

【结构分析】主语中心语是Hardy's weakness，谓语动词是两个derived from，其中第二个from前面省略了derived，第一个宾语是his apparent inability, to control the comings and goings of these impulses是个不定式，修饰前面的his apparent inability，第二个宾语是his unwillingness，后面是个不定式to cultivate and sustain the energetic and　risky ones，修饰前面的his unwillingness。

【亮点回放】此句话的亮点在于采用了两个并列的宾语，每个宾语后面都有不定式，两个不定式都修饰前面的宾语，并列的宾语和并列的不定式是重要的并列功能成分，作文可以去写，增加气势和文章的魅力。
