今日长难句：

On the other hand, he did not accept as well founded the charge made by some of his critics that, while he was a good observer he had no power of reasoning.

参考译文：

另一方，对于一些评论家对他的指控——虽然他是一个好的观察家，却没有推理能力——他认为毫无依据。

句子解析：

【结构分析】倒装：[He did not accept as well founded the charge]，正常的句式是[He did not accept the charge as well founded]他认为这个指控没有根据，well founded作the charge的宾语补足语，the charge made by some of his critics 动词分词做后置定语，之所以要把as well founded提前，就是为了让made部分能够直接修饰charge

同位语从句：the charge that while he was a good observer, he had no power of reasoning.(while部分表示charge的内容)

while表示转折，虽然他是一个好的观察家，但没有推理能力。

下期预告：
