tlylow-level”是“findings”的定語(yǔ)?！癮boutfactualerrorsandspellingandgrammarmistakes”是介賓短語(yǔ)做定語(yǔ)?！癰inedwithlotsofheadscratchingpuzzlementaboutwhatintheworldthosereadersreallywant”是一個(gè)過(guò)去分詞引導(dǎo)的伴隨狀語(yǔ)，其中“aboutwhatintheworldthosereadersreallywant”是“puzzlement”的定語(yǔ)。Thereexistsasocialandculturaldisconnectbetweenjournalistsandtheirreaders,whichhelpsexplainwhythe“standardtemplates”ofthenewsroomseemalientomanyreaders.【構(gòu)造分析】主句是“there+系表構(gòu)造”?！皐hich”引導(dǎo)一個(gè)非限定性定語(yǔ)從句，該詞指代前面一句話。而在這個(gè)定語(yǔ)從句“whichhelpsexplainwhythe‘standardtemplates'ofthenewsroomseemalientomanyreaders”中，又出現(xiàn)一個(gè)“why”引導(dǎo)的賓語(yǔ)從句。Ifitdid,itwouldopenupitsdiversityprogram,nowfocusednarrowlyonraceandgender,andlookforreporterswhodifferbroadlybyoutlook,values,education,andclass.【構(gòu)造分析】本句的主句中，“it”代表上文提到的“atroubledbusiness”，即“備受困擾的新聞界”?！皀owfocusednarrowlyonraceandgender”是插入語(yǔ)，也是修飾“program”的定語(yǔ)。后面有兩個(gè)并列謂語(yǔ)“wouldopenup”和“(would)lookfor”。這里需要注意的就是一個(gè)意思上的問(wèn)題，那就是“雖然報(bào)業(yè)也有多樣性工程，招收不同的人當(dāng)記者，但是這樣的多樣性僅僅局限于性別和種族，而報(bào)業(yè)需要多招收那些具有不同的人生觀、教育以及于不同階級(jí)的人”。為什么那么多美國(guó)人不相信自己在報(bào)紙上所讀的東西?美國(guó)新聞協(xié)會(huì)正試圖答復(fù)這個(gè)令人痛苦的問(wèn)題。該組織正在深入開展一個(gè)名為“新聞可信度工程”的長(zhǎng)期自我剖析工程。遺憾的是，這次工程只獲得了一些淺薄的發(fā)現(xiàn)，諸如新聞報(bào)道中的事實(shí)錯(cuò)誤，拼寫或語(yǔ)法錯(cuò)誤，以及許多關(guān)于讀者到底想讀些什么這樣的令人撓頭的困惑。但這種不信任有更深刻的根源。多數(shù)新
