2016考研英语作文必背高分句：宗教信仰

sexual confusion, economic frustrations, and religious hope-all cametogether in a decisive moment when he opened the bible, told his father thefirst line he saw would settle his fate, and read the magical words: "come outfrom among them, touch no unclean thing, and i will be your god and you shall bemy people. "

译文：性的困惑、经济困顿和对宗教的祈望，所有这一切都汇集在那关键的一刻——他对父亲说，自己打开《圣经》时看到的第一句话将决定自己的命运，他看到的第一行充满魔力的文字是：“务必要从他们中间出来，不要沾不洁净的物，我要做你们的神，你们必须做我的子民。”

点睛：这个复合句的句式比较复杂，主干为：sexual confusion, economic frustrations,and religioushope——all came together。破折号后的all是对前面三个名词的概括总结。when训导的定语从句“…when he opened thebible... shall be my people.”修饰a decisivemoment，在这个定语从句中有opened、told、read三个并列的谓语动词。settle one’s fate意为“决定某人的命运”。如：

actually, nobody but yourself can settle your fate.

实际上，除了你自己，没有人能左右你的命运。
