今日长难句：

though often viewed as a problem for western states, the growing frequency of wildfires is a national concern because of its impact on federal tax dollars, says professor max moritz, a specialist in fire ecology and management. （英语二 2021 t4）

温馨贴士：

本句骨干为主系表规划：the growing frequency of wildfires（主语）is（系动词）a national concern（表语），because of引导缘由状语，says professor max moritz可视为刺进语，a specialist in fire

ecology and management为max moritz的同位语，对其身份进行说明阐明，句首的though引导让步状语，其省掉了主语和系动词，复原后为though（the wildfires are）often viewed as a problem for western states。

背记单词：

1.frequency ?[?fri?kw?nsi] n. 频率；频频

【拓宽】frequent [‘fri:kw?nt] adj. 频频的；惯常的

2.concern ??[k?n?s??n] n. 忧虑，关怀

3.federal ?[?fed?r?l] adj. 联邦的；同盟的

4.specialist ?[?spe??l?st] n. 专家；专门医生

【拓宽】special ?[?spe?l] adj. 特另外，特有的

5.ecology ?[i?k?l?d?i] n. 生态学

参阅译文：

火灾生态学及消防打点专家马克斯·莫里茨教授说，尽管常被认为是西部州的疑问，但频频发生的野火对联邦政府的税收现已构成了必定的影响，这使其变成了全国重视的论题。

翻译技巧：

同位语可测验翻译为定语，例如professor max moritz, a specialist in fire ecology and management，咱们翻译为了：火灾生态学及消防打点专家马克斯·莫里茨教授。
