  托福阅读长难句:怀孕鱼龙群

  But these factors do not account for the interesting question of how there came to be such a concentration of pregnant ichthyosaurs in a particular place very close to their time of giving birth.

  (Of结构作定语:of how there came to be such a concentration of pregnant ichthyosaurs…)

  翻译:但这些因素并不能解释这个有趣的问题:为何在一个特定的地点会如此集中地出现即将临产的怀孕鱼龙群。

  分句1: But these factors do not account for the interesting question

  分句2: of how there came to be such a concentration of pregnant ichthyosaurs in a particular place very close to their time of giving birth

  分句1中嵌套着分句2.

  分句2是of结构作后置定语修饰说明question的内容。
