19考研英語：屠屠長難句（九十六）

1、每日一句長難句
These letters are filled with his wrestling with the consequences of being the part-private, part-public creature that he became, desperate to devote himself to his writing, and yet subject to endless invasions of his privacy. 

2、【句型分析】
These letters are filled with his wrestling是句子的主題，後面with結構是狀語，that he became是修飾creature的定語從句，難點在於最後兩個形容詞詞組的成分（desperate to devote himself to his writing, and yet subject to endless invasions of his privacy）。這兩個形容詞詞組用來修飾前面的名詞creature。

3、【詞彙】
wrestling n.掙扎，鬥爭

be desperate to do 強烈渴望做

be subject to 遭受到

invasion n.入侵

4、【參考譯文】
這些信中處處都顯現出他因爲自己成爲半私人、半公開這樣一個人物反覆掙扎的心理，他渴望將自己奉獻給文學，但又時時受到私人空間受到侵襲的威脅。

5、【明日長難句】
