15、ry spells this year.分析：在这个句子当中，句子主语是 the Karamojong，谓语是had，宾语是no safety net。Robbed of.和frightened away.是过去分词做状语表示原因和背景，该部分结构的逻辑主语是the Karamojong，因其与动作之间是被动关系，所以是过去分词。译文：今年干旱期间，卡拉莫琼人（Karamojong）的牲畜被抢夺，他们吓得离开了自己的领地，没有任何安全保障。原文：Auda Lokwang leaves her children at home from sunrise to sunset while she g
16、athers firewood in the scrubland, exchanging it in Moroto town for adakai, the edible residue left after brewing sorghum beer.分析：在这个句子当中，while做连词连接两个句子表示对比。前面的句子主语是Auda Lokwang，谓语是leaves，宾语是her children，其中at home属于宾语补足语。while后面的句子中，句子主语是she，谓语是gathers，宾语是firewood in the scrubland，其中exchanging是现在分词做状
17、语，而the edible residue left after brewing sorghum beer是 adakai的同位语，对其进行解释。译文：奥达洛光（Auda Lokwang）从早到晚把孩子们留在家里，而她自己则在莫罗托镇的灌木丛中捡柴火，用柴火来换取adakai（酿造高粱啤酒后留下的可食用残渣）。写作技巧Only when the bloodshed stops will the rains return.只有杀戮止，则风雨至。表达：当“only when”位于句首时，其后习惯上要用部分倒装，即将be动词、助动词或情态动词放在主语之前。在only后作状语的是从句时，从句不要用倒装
18、，要部分倒装的是主句。例句：Only when a reservoir is built here can we solve our irrigation problem.除非在这里修个水库，才能解决灌溉问题。Only when each logical step has been checked by other mathematicians will the proof be accepted.More from Wechat Subscription:Richie英语教书匠。只有在每个逻辑步骤都由其他数学家验证之后，该证明才会被接受。背景知识在非洲东部的乌干达和肯尼亚、苏丹交界处的近3万
19、平方公里的卡拉莫地区，生活着一个至今保持着奇特风俗的部族卡拉莫贾人，主要分布在高原和草原地带，人数大概有30多万，卡拉莫贾人棕黑色皮肤，身材高大，臂力过人，在非洲东部很受关注。卡拉莫贾人视牛为一种财富，很多事都需要牛，比如牛在青年男女的婚事中占有重要地位，没有牛甚至娶不到老婆，因为他们的彩礼中就需要很多牛，那么如果没有很多牛怎么办呢？于是有的卡拉莫贾穷人为了筹集彩礼，便拉帮结伙拿着刀枪到离家较远的地方去抢牛，这种野蛮的行径在卡拉莫贾部落渐渐形成了风气，虽然抢牛是为了付彩礼，但谁的牛也不愿意被别人抢走，所以抢牛总不免会打架，伤人事件常有发生，而当地政府和警察局也对此毫无办法，因为当地的传统观念认为：“抢牛”是求婚者机智勇敢的表现，为了彩礼去“偷牛”并不是什么丢人的事情。段落大意【1】事件背景：卡拉莫贾牲畜抢夺事件重出江湖【2】历史地位：牛的所有权是卡拉莫贾人粮食财富的彰显【3】矛盾动荡：多因素导致抢牛现象卷土重来【4】警钟提醒：抢牛盗牛事件是时候罢休了学科网（北京）股份有限公司
