1. Sad to say, this project has turned out to be mostly low-level findings about factual errors and spelling and grammar mistakes, combined with lots of head-scratching puzzlement about what in the world those readers really want. (2001. 阅读. Text 3)

　　【译文】遗憾的是，这次新闻机构新都调查计划结果只获得了一些肤浅的发现，诸如新闻报道中的事实错误、拼写或语法错误，和这些低层次发现交织在一起的还有许多令人挠头的困惑，譬如读者到底想读些什么。

　　【析句】英语阅读中有不少长句自成一段，本句就是一例。句子的主句是this project has turned out to be ...finds, about+后面三个名词作宾语的补语；逗号后combined with...puzzlement是过去分词引导的伴随状语，里面又含有what引导的宾语从句。

　　2. There exists a social and cultural disconnect between journalists and their readers, which helps explain why the “standard templates” of the newsroom seem alien to many readers. (2001. 阅读. Text 3)

　　【译文】新闻记者和读者之间存在着社会和文化方面的脱节，这就是为什么新闻编辑室的“标准模式”与众多读者的意趣相差甚远。

　　【析句】句子主干是there be的主句加which引导的非限制性定语从句，定语从句中why引导宾语从句作explain的宾语。如果考生不理解standard templates,可以参考上下文中给出的解释即standard patterns。

　　3. If it did, it would open up its diversity program, now focused narrowly on race and gender, and look for reporters who differ broadly by outlook, values, education, and class. (2001. 阅读. Text 3)

　　【译文】如果它能注意这个问题，它就应该进一步开放其多样化项目（这个项目现在还只单纯考虑不同种族和性别的员工），寻找那些世界观、价值观、教育水平和社会阶层各不相同的各种记者。

　　【析句】句子的主干是If it did, it would open up ...program and look for reporters，it替代上文a troubled business，即“问题重重的新闻界”。其中，主句用了虚拟语气，now focused ...gender做插入语，修饰diversity program；还有who引导的定语从句修饰reporters。
