例2 Gilbert's own interest in new music has been widely noted: Alex Ross, a classical-music critic, has described him as a man who is capable of turning the Philharmonic into "a markedly different, more vibrant organization."
【结构分析】冒号前面的句子主干是Gilbert's own interest in new music has been widely noted,冒号后面的主语是Alex Ross,后面是插入语a classical-music critic,动词是has described,直接宾语是him, as后面是间接宾语a man,后面是定语从句who is capable of turning the Philharmonic into "a markedly different, more vibrant organization"。
