【疑难长句】

1.In the coming months, we are bringing together artists from all over the globe, to enjoy speaking Shakespeare's plays in their own language, in our Globe, within the architecture Shakespeare wrote for.

本句的逻辑结构简单，但各个组成部分较为复杂，主句中谓语的时态是现在进行时表示将来，后接动词不定式短语做目的状语，句首为时间状语，句尾为地点状语。句中出现两个globe，第一个是指“地球”，第二个是指位于英国伦敦的“环球剧场”。

（参考译文）未来几个月，我们将来自世界各地的艺术家们聚集在环球剧场，这个莎士比亚为之进行创作的地方，欣赏艺术家们用自己的语言表演莎翁的戏剧。

2.by translating the rich and humourous text of Love's Labour's Lost into the physical language of bSL, deafinitely Theatre creates a new interpretation of Shakespeare's comedy and aims to build a bridge between deaf and hearing worlds by performing to both groups as one audience.

本句主句是一个包含creates和aims to build的并列谓语结构，句首和句尾均为由by引导的方式状语。

（参考译文）通过将《爱的徒劳》内容丰富且幽默诙谐的文本翻译成英国手语，deafinitely剧院开创了莎翁喜剧一种新的演绎方式，为的是在失聪人群和听力无障碍人群之间建起一道桥梁，让他们能够同场欣赏莎翁喜剧。
