词汇突破
psychologist [sa??kɑ?l?d??st]
n. 心理学家,心理学者
artificial [?ɑ?rt??f??l]
adj. 人造的;仿造的;虚伪的;非原产地的;武断的
结构分析
句子的主干是 social psychologist asked volunteers to hold a pen。不定式短语 to hold a pen 作宾语补足语。Fritz Strack of the University of Wurzburg in Germany 是主语的同位语,解释说明主语的情况。In an experiment published in 1988 是状语,并列连词 either… or… 连接的介词短语 either with their teeth 和 or with their lip 作谓语 hold 的方式状语。thereby creating an artificial smile 为插入语,作结果状语。which would produce a disappointed expression 引导非限定性定语从句,修饰前面的情况。
参考译文
