【語法分析】

 

這句話的主語是"Howe’ s idea"，謂語"finds"，賓語"a complementary underpinning"，"what Matt Ridley describes in his book"為介詞賓語從句，"The Rational Optimist"是書的名字也就是"book"的同位語成份，"wherein"算是定語從句修飾"The Rational Optimist"，定語從句內的"concludes"后面是賓語從句。

 

【譯文】

 

豪的想法在馬特·里德《理性的樂觀主義者》一書中得以進一步證實, 里德在該書中得出的結論是, 創新的動力在于交換, 在于人之間思想的交流。

 

【考情分析】

 

"in what Matt Ridley describes in his book"是句子主干的地點狀語，也就是在那兒"find"的，"what"在賓語從句里面也作賓語。"wherein"相當于"in which"，所以這句話也可以寫成---"in which he concludes that..."，再次變形一下就是"he concludes in the book(The Rational Optimist) that..." ；在"concludes"引導的賓語從句其實是強調句，把"it is...that"去掉，"trade has been the engine of innovation"，語法結構和意義都很完整，至于"people exchanging ideas"其實應該也是主語的一部分，或者說它和"trade"是并列的關系，也就是"trade"和"people exchanging ideas"都是創新的動力 。
