例一：So many of the productions currently to be seen on the London stage are concerned with the more violent aspects of life that is surprising to meet a play about odinary people caught up in ordinary events.

这里的主句和从句通过so...that...进行衔接，说明了两句之间的因果关系。我们进行切分后，利用因果关系词进行衔接：

伦敦剧场最近上演的戏剧中大多是关于生活中的狂野暴力种种冲突，所以看到一部平常人的平常生活的戏，实在是出乎意料之外。

例二： In fact the surface is so bland that attention is constantly focused on the care with which the play has been put together, and the calrity with which its argument develops;

这里的主句和从句再次通过so...that...进行衔接，说明了两句之间的因果关系。同时在表示结果的分句中又出现了两个定语从句，一个with which the play has been put together用来修饰the care，一个with which its argument develops用来修饰the clarity，如果切分为四句，形式上就过于松散，所以这两个定语从句可以利用我们课堂上讲的前置法进行处理。

译文：事实上，戏剧看上去平淡无奇，倒使观众的注意力都集中在作者构造戏剧的匠心独运上，以及戏剧对白的清楚明晰上。

例三：During this conversation, in which the author shows a remarkable talent for writing dialogue which is entertaining and witty without being so sparkling as to draw too much attention to itself;

我们把这里的定语从句和状语都进行切割，就会产生四个小分段，然后逐一翻译，就能得到理想的译文。

During this conversation, in which the author shows a remarkable talent for writing dialogue which is entertaining and witty without being so sparkling as to draw too much attention to itself

译文： 言谈间，作者展示了构造对白的非凡才能，戏剧对白笑话百出、妙语如珠，却又不至于喧宾夺主，抢走戏剧的风头。
