句子翻译分析 :
几个世纪以来,有关法律的研究一直被看成是欧洲各国大学的一门基本的知识学科。不过,只是在最近几年有关法律的研究才成为加拿大大学本科课程的一个专题。
1、首句较为简单,主干为主谓宾的被动形式 = the study of law/ has been recognized as / a basic intellectual discipline. =有关法律的研究一直被看成是一门基本的知识学科。for centuries 和in European universities 为句子的时间状语和地点状语。
2、二句为倒装结构,语法规则为:only+状语位于句首或主语之前时,主句半倒装(has it become a …)。如果对待倒装理解困难时,可将句子的主干和修饰成分进行拆分之后,将半倒装句改写会正常的语序,则整个句子重组为:only in recent years + it has become a feature of undergraduate programs in Canadian universities. = 只是在最近几年+ 它才成为加拿大大学本科课程的一个专题。
