考研英语!求这句话的正常语序?
Emerging from the 1980 census is the picture of a nation developing more and more regional competition,as population growth in the Northeast and Midwest reaches a near standstill.

Answer 1

1998年考研真题阅读第4篇第一句；
正常语序：
As population growth in the Northeast and Midwest reaches a near standstill,Census emerging from the 1980 is the picture of a nation developing more and more regional competition.
翻译：
由于东北部地区和中南部地区人口的增长近乎停滞（状态）,1980年表现出的人口普查数据（被认为）是一个区域竞争日益增长的国家的写照.
分析：
1、后半句为as引导的原因状语从句,可前置
2、near standstill 几乎停滞,reach sth 达到某种状态；
3、sth is a picture of sth 某事是某事的征兆/写照/产物
4、Emerging from the 1980现在分词短语做定语修饰census,可后置
