英语四级阅读理解之破译长难句(1)

　　A survey found an overwhelming pessimism about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is “slipping away, and that bothers me.”(08.6 Passage 2)

　　分析主干：A survey found an (overwhelming) pessimism...

　　句中with 引导的介词短语作状语，其后带了复合宾语(即宾语+补语)。该复合宾语用现在分词saying 作补语，saying 还带了一个宾语从句they feel...，而feel 也带有宾语从句，由and 连接两个分句their privacy is slipping away 和that bothers me 构成。

　　译文：一次调查发现人们对于隐私普遍持悲观态度，60%的受访者说他们觉得隐私正在“离自己远去，而这让我很忧心。”
