 16. In their recent work, however, some researchers have come up with the finding that influentials have far less impact on social epidemics 2 than is generally supposed.


【分析】多重复合句。句子主干为 some researchers have come up with the finding that...,that 引导的从句作 finding 的同位语。同位语从句主干为 influentials have...impact on social epidemics,其中包含比较结构 far less...than“比...少得多,远远不如”,far 表程度。
【译文】然而一些研究者在他们最近的工作中发现,有影响力的人物对社会流行风尚的影响远远不如想象的那么强大。
【点拨】come up with“追上;赶上;提出”,本句中是“提出”的意思。
【临摹】社会改革家有时会提出某些极端理想主义的想法。
17. The researchers' argument stems from a simple observation about social influence: With the exception of a few celebrities 3 like Oprah Winfrey — whose outsize presence is primarily a function of media, not interpersonal, influence—even the most influential 1 members of a population simply don't interact with that many others.
【分析】冒号前的句子主干为 The researchers' argument stems from a...observation。冒号后的内容是对前一个句子中 observations 的解释,其主干为 even the most influential members of a population simply don't interact with that many others,其中 of a population 作 members 的后置定语。破折号前的 with 短语作状语,破折号之间的 whose 引导的定语从句修饰前面的 Oprah Winfrey。
【译文】研究者的评论来源于对社会影响的一项简单的观察:除少数像奥普拉·温弗瑞(她的超凡形象主要是通过媒体作用而非人际关系影响)之类的名人外,就连那些在某些群体中最具影响力的人物,其交流对象也不是那么多。
【点拨】1)outsize“特大的”,本句中意为“超凡的”。2)presence“出席;仪表;风度,气质”,本句中是“外鸟,形象”的意思。3)population 常用作不可数名词“人口”,本句中用作可数名词指代“特殊群体”。模拟答案:
