句子分析:主干是Foreign companies feel +宾语从句。宾语从句的引导词that被省略了,本句原句可以还原为Foreign companies feel that they are at a competitive disadvantage.
In the most regulated sector of all—banks—their market share has fallen to 14% from 18% in the past 24 months, partly, they argue, owing to onerous new rules.
在银行业这一监管最严的领域,它们所占的市场份额在过去24个月里已从18%下降至14%。它们认为繁重的新规定是导致这一结果的部分原因。
生词和词组:onerous 繁重的a
句子分析:主干是their market share has fallen. In the most regulated sector of all是介词短语做状语,破折号之间的bank是前面名词短语the most regulated sector of all的同位语,对其进行解释,to 14%, from 18%, in the past 24 months这三个介词短语都做状语,partly owing to onerous new rules 是原因状语,they argue是插入语。另外也可以把they argue看做是整个句子的主语和谓语,放到最前面,剩下的部分是argue的宾语从句,这样句子可以还原为They argue, in the most regulated sector of all—banks—their market share has fallen to 14% from 18% in the past 24 months, partly, owing to onerous new rules.

生词和词组:discretion 酌情处理权n
句子分析:主干是Volkswagen and BP have admitted their respective responsibilities。In carmaking and energy, 是介词短语做状语,for fake emissions tests and the Deepwater Horizon oil spill是介词短语做responsibilities的后置定语。

但许多欧洲公司老板相信,两家公司已支付或目前面临的累计700亿美元的诉讼费用及罚款远超过通用汽车和埃克森美孚为类似的严重错误所付出的代价。
生词和词组:grave 坟墓n,严重的a
句子分析:主干是many European bosses believe +that 引导的宾语从句。宾语从句当中有两个定语从句,第一个是they have paid or currently face,这是个省略了that的定语从句修饰 legal costs and penalties。第二个定语从句是that General Motors and ExxonMobil paid for similarly grave mistakes修饰those。
我们将在后面的文章中继续带领大家学习后面的部分。
