Questions are increasingly being asked by the councils about how they can be sure that misconduct is not taking place on the grants they provide.
    【核心词汇】
    increasingly ad.越来越多地，渐增地
    council n.委员会，会议
    misconduct n.不端行为，处理不当
    grant n.拨款，授予物，同意
    【结构分析】
    本句主干为Questions are increasingly being asked about...，动作实施者by the councils构成了分隔结构，将ask和about分开。在翻译时，我们可以化被动为主动，the council are increasingly asking questions about...，由介词about后的宾语由how they can be sure...充当。
    【参考译文】
    各委员会越来越多地提出问题——关于他们如何能够确保在他们同意的情况下避免发生处理不当的行为。
