It was on a Sunday evening,when he was lying in the orchard listening to a blackbird and composing a love poem,that he heard thegate swing to,and saw the girl coming running among the trees,with the redcheeked, stolid Joe in swift pursuit.一个星期日的傍晚,他正躺在果园里,一面在听画眉鸟的啁啾,一面在写一首爱情诗,忽然听得大门砰地关上,接着看见那姑娘从树丛里奔出来,后面飞跟着那呆头呆脑的红脸的乔。

这是个英语强调句,其重心是:he heard the gate swing to and saw the girl com ing running am ong the trees.,而when he was ly- ing in the orchard listening to a blackbird and com posing a love poem是一个时间状语从句,这两个句子通过itwas...that...这个强调句型巧妙地合为一个复合长句,整个句子简单明了,结构紧凑,若用汉语表达则须分成好几个短句。再如:

The president said at a conference dominated by questions on yesterday's election results that he could not explain why the Republicans had suffered such a widespread defeat,which in the end would deprive the Republican Party of long-held superiority in the House.在一次记者招待会上,问题集中于昨天的选举结果,总统就此发了言。他说他不能理解为什么共和党遭到了这样大的失败。这种情况最终会使共和党失去在众议院长期享有的优势。

这个英语长句是由一个带有分词短语的主句,两个宾语从句和一个非限制性定语从句组成,整个句子的主干简单明了:The president said...that....,若用汉语来表达,须把此长句拆开分成三个单句来分别叙述。
