19考研英語：屠屠長難句（四十四）

1每日一句長難句
It is entirely reasonable for auditors to believe that scientists who know exactly where they are going and how they will get there should not be distracted by the necessity of keeping one eye on the cash register while the other eye is on the microscope.
 

2【分析】
本句的主體結構是it is adj. for sb. to do …., believe後面是that引導的賓語從句。從句中scientists是主語，後面是who know exactly where they are going and how they will get there定語從句修飾，謂語動詞是被動語態should not be distracted by，the necessity是賓語，of keeping one eye on the cash register while the other eye is on the microscope引導結構做定語。

3【詞彙】
entirely reasonable 完全有理由

auditor 審查者

distract 分散注意力

cash register 收銀機

4【譯文】
審查者完全有理由相信，知道自己準備做什麼、怎麼做的科學家不應該因爲必須一隻眼盯着收銀機，一隻眼盯着顯微鏡而分散了注意力。
