复杂的倒装句的拆分和理解 例157

例157　Only when money is gained by means of honest labor and used for the benefit of not only oneself but also his people and country can it bring a person real happiness.

【结构分析】这句话是典型的only引导的倒装句，only放在句首，加上任何成分都可以引导倒装句，only加上时间状语从句when money is gained by means of honest labor and used for the benefit of...，后面是两个并列名词短语做the benefit of的宾语，也就是not only oneself but also his people and country，后面加上句子的主干can it bring a person real happiness。

【亮点回放】此句话的亮点在于only引导的倒装句，表示一种强调某个成分，比如I only love to talk about the story at school，为了强调at school，可以说Only at school do I love to talk about the story。

【核心词汇】

gain　获取

by means of　通过

honest labor　诚实劳动

for the benefit of　为了……的利益

real happiness　真正的快乐

【参考译文】只有通过诚实的劳动去赚钱而且把钱不仅用于自己还用于帮助他附近的人和他的国家，一个人才能获得真正的幸福。
