例100 "Your abilities and wisdom count", Explained psychologist Michael Scheler of Carnege-Mellon University in Pittsburgh, but the belief that you can succeed affects whether or not you will succeed and whether you can make a triumph persistently after achieving your goals.
【结构分析】这句话是典型的转折句,转折句子前面的主干是“Your abilities and wisdom count”,转折后面的主语是the belief,后面加上同位语从句that you can succeed,动词是affects,后面加上两个并列的宾语从句,第一个宾语从句是whether or not you will succeed,第二个宾语从句是whether you can make a triumph persistently after achieving your goals.
【亮点回放】此句话的亮点在于转折句的合理使用,先说成功和能力相关,在通过否定上文,让自己的观点更加具有说服力,说成功与自信相关,很霸气的转折句子,后面又套上了两个神奇的宾语从句whether,让句子的延展性得到增加。
