要點分析和參考譯文

要點：句子主干有兩個并列的謂語部分，即" is contrary to……and is contrary to……。" 詞組mercy killing 是對前面內容的概括。for which the medical profession stands 是"that"的定語從句。

參考譯文：有意識的結束一個人的生命——安樂死——既違反了醫學界的職業立場，也違反了美國醫學會協會的宗旨。

要點：此句的主干是一個由and 連接的并列結構。第一部分有幾個并列祈使句組成，第二部分是一個完整的主謂結構，全句主干即"Put…exalt…，forever free … strife and you have a future…colors of hope.由于第一部分并列祈使句較長而第二部分較短，而且連接兩部分的and前面有存在著另外一個and(need and strife)從而致使句子的結構較復雜，不易看出主干的并列結構。

參考譯文：把這一切集合起來，加以提高，使之超越現存的缺點，再加上人類得到拯救的憧憬，永遠無求無爭，那么你將有一個閃耀著希望的絢麗多彩的未來。

要點：全句為并列復合句。 "and"連接并列句。第二個句子是主從復合句。"which"引出非限制性定語從句，修飾"area"."that " 引出限制性定語從句，修飾 "villages"."what" 引出名詞從句作"form"的賓語
