例119　If Gilbert and the Philharmonic are to succeed, they must first change the relationship between America's oldest orchestra and the new audience it hopes to attract.

【结构分析】这句话是典型的条件状语从句，开头是个条件句If Gilbert and the Philharmonic are to succeed，句子的主语是they，动词是must first change，宾语是the relationship，后面是介词短语between America's oldest orchestra and the new audience it hopes to attract修饰前面的名词，其中有个省略that定语从句it hopes to attract。

【亮点回放】此句话的亮点是介词短语between...and...里面套上定语从句，各种各样的定语是这句话的特色。

【核心词汇】

change the relationship　改变关系

America's oldest orchestra　美国最古老的乐团

the new audience　新的听众

【参考译文】如果Gilbert和他的乐团要进步的话，他们就必须首先改变美国最古老的乐团（就是纽约爱乐乐团）同他们想吸引的新观众间的关系。
