1.Apart from the fact that twenty-seven acts of Parliament govern the terms of advertising, no regular advertiser dare promote a product that fails to live up to the promise of his advertisements.
【词汇突破】apart from 除外(相当于 besides;in addition to)Parliament 议会promote 促销live up to 不辜负(在翻译时常处理为“符合”)
【主干识别】No regular advertiser dare promote a product+定语从句。
【其他成分】apart from the fact 为介词结构作状语;that twenty-seven acts of Parliament govern the terms, of advertising 为同位语从句对fact作进一步阐释;that fails to live up to the promise of his advertisements 为定语从句修饰 product。
【难点揭秘】这句话的主干较为清晰,复杂的地方在于多重否定。我们可以找到no和fail这两个具有否定意思的词,根据汉语知识可知双重否定为肯定,这样一来句意就会清楚很多。对于否定词的敏感度不够会造成歧义。状语部分的识别也有一定难度。

3.The notion is that people have failed to detect the massive changes which have happened in the ocean because they have been looking back only a relatively short time into the past. 【词汇突破】
detect 检测,侦查massive 巨大的,大规模的(写作中可用到的替换词)
【主干识别】
The notion is that+表语从句。 【其他成分】
people have failed to detect the massive changes 为表语从句(对主语 的阐释);which have happened in the ocean 为定语从句修饰 changes;because they have been looking back only a relatively short time into the past 为原因状语从句。
【难点揭秘】
句子的主干是 The notion is that+表语从句,而定语从句则是修饰表语从句中的一个词,因此在翻译时需要注意主次关系。对于fail这一类带有定意味的词可直接当作not来理解,relatively 修饰 short。
