英語六級(jí)-完形語法關(guān)鍵句361. Watching the U.S. economy soar during the

361. Watching the U.S. economy soar during the '90s, the Germans had decided that they, too, needed to go the high technology route.

譯文　看到20世紀(jì)90年代美國經(jīng)濟(jì)的騰飛，德國人決定，他們也得走高科技之路。

點(diǎn)睛　本句的主干是...the Germans had decided that...。其中they, too, needed...route是由that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句，作decide的賓語；現(xiàn)在分詞短語watching...during the '90s在句中作原因狀語。soar的本義是“急速飛入高空”，這里引申為“上漲，高漲”。route的意思是“路途，路線”；high technology route意為“高科技之路”。
