(看看那些单词不认识?句子能不能切分?猜一下文章背景是什么?)

先做一下思考题：

第1题：

Americans in remote locations were expected to rely more on e-commerce.

(T or F)

第二题：

Besides education levels, online shopping is also under the influence of population density.

(T or F)

再看一下词汇：

1. Yet 但是         2. instead 相反，但是         3.contrary to expectations, 与预期的相反

4.remote locations 偏远地区         5. online shopping 网购         6.densely populated areas 人口密集的地区

7. be tied to 与…相关联         8. education levels 受教育水平

9. access to Internet connections 接入互联网连接         10.banking services 银行服务

第1句：

Yet, contrary to expectations, Americans in remote locations did not rely more on online shopping.

主干识别：

Americans in remote locations did not rely more on online shopping.

切分成分：

contrary to expectations 与预期的相反

参考译文：

但是，与预期的相反，居住在偏远地区的美国人并没有更多的依赖网络购物。0

第1句：

Instead, the researchers found people in more densely populated areas were more likely to do their shopping online, though that may also be tied to education levels and access to Internet connections and banking services.

主干识别：

the researchers found (that)people in more densely populated areas were more likely to do their shopping online (宾语从句)

其他成分：

though that may also be tied to education levels and access to Internet connections and banking services. 状语从句(可以先翻译)

记住：…, though,… ; …, though. 只有这两种情况下的though 才表示但是。其他都是虽然。

参考译文：

但是，研究者发现在人口更密集的地区居住的人们更有可能网购，虽然这一情况与受教育水平，互联网连接的接入以及银行服务也有一定的关系。

所以思考题：

Besides education levels, online shopping is also under the influence of population density.

除开受教育水平，网购也受到人口密度的影响。是正确的!
