Answer 1

Lenovo is almost as entrenched in China as the Great Wall,with a network of 9,000 retail stores and other sales outlets ,giving it an indisputable advantage over its competition in the world's fastest-growing economy.聯想在中國的根深蒂固，幾乎如同長城，﹙因為﹚它有著﹙with﹚9000家零售店和其他銷路(經銷商店)的﹙銷售﹚網路，這個網路使它在這個世界上成長最快的經濟體﹙中國﹚之中，有著﹙giving it﹚勝過競爭對手的無疑的優勢。整句可分成三個部分：1. 主要子句﹙句子之主體﹚：Lenovo is almost as entrenched in China as the Great Wall   be動詞is之後接主詞補語﹙形容詞片語﹚，形容主詞的特徵：主詞 + be 動詞 + 副詞 + as 形容詞 + 介詞 +名詞 + as 名詞 ﹙is為文法上虛詞，所以中文翻譯時可略去不譯出﹚2. 介詞片語： with a network of 9,000 retail stores and other sales outlets 主要子句之後逗點，再接上去的介詞片語，可補充形容主要子句的意思﹙主詞有何其他特徵，如具備什麼，或位於何處…﹚：介詞 +名詞 and +名詞3.分詞片語：giving it an indisputable advantage over its competition in the world's fastest-growing economy (= which gives it an... →which代替前面的a network of 9,000 retail stores and other sales outlets，補充說明此network帶來的影響)這裡的分詞片語 ﹙Ving...﹚置於前面句子結尾的逗點之後，可補充敘述前面句子尾端的名詞：giving + 間接受詞 ( it ) + 直接受詞 (名詞 + 介詞 + 名詞 + 介詞 + 名詞)
