今天的句子：

In fact, it is difficult to see how journalists who do not have a clear grasp of the basic features of the Canadian Constitution can do a competent job on political stories.

昨天句子的解析：

His function is *** ogous to that of a judge, who must accept the obligation of revealing in as obvious a manner as possible the course of reasoning which led him to his decision.

词汇突破： *** ogous 类似于

Obligation 义务

Manner 方式

Reason 推理

Reveal 揭示（在这个句子中更好翻译为“展示”）

Function 在这个语境中应该是“职责”

句子主干：His function is *** ogous to that of a judge

其他成分：who must accept the obligation of revealing in as obvious a manner as possible the course of reasoning which led him to his decision.定语从句

微观分析：who=judge 或者就是前面的he,因为两人的职责是类似的所以指代谁都是一样的。

这个部分的难点在于你要识别出revealing的宾语

revealing the course of reasoning which led him to his decision.

in as obvious a manner as possible做的是状语，看看刚才我们是怎么处理的：

in a manner as obvious as possible

用尽可能明显的方式；

（ ，in the manner of a hero ,用一种英雄的方式）

后面的which led him to his decision修饰过程，你问我为什么不修饰reasoning，你自己翻译就知道不通顺了，这是语法解决不了的二义性，从语法上讲都是可以的时候就只有看语境了。

参考译文：他的职责与法官相似，他必须承担这样的责任：用尽可能明了的方式来展示自己做出决定的推理过程。

是赞赏的时候了！
