# A foreign publisher of my first book confessed that he could not sleep for three nights after reading it, (A)[ ] troubled was he by what he saw as its cold, bleak message.
[「이기적 유전자」, 리처드 도킨스 서문 중에서]
# 빈칸 (A)에 적합한 단어는?
[해석] 내 첫 저서의 한 외국의 출판자는 자기가 보기에 그 책의 차갑고 음울한 메시지에 아주 고통스러워서 읽은 후 사흘 밤을 잠을 잘 수가 없었다고 고백했다.
[정답] (A) : so
[해설]
~ confessed that [he was so troubled by what he saw as its cold, bleak message that he could not sleep for three nights after reading it.]
= ~ confessed that [so troubled was he by what he saw as its cole, bleak message that he could not sleep ~]
'so troubled'을 앞으로 선행시키면 수동 조동사 was를 he 앞으로 보내서 'was he'의 순서로 위치시킨다.
= ~ confessed that [he could not sleep for three nights after reading it,(comma) so troubled was he by what he saw as its ~ message].
'that he could ~' 절을 주절로 앞으로 보낼 때는 당연히 'that'은 없애고 뒤에 'comma'를 사용하고 원인에 해당되는 'so troubled ~' 절을 위치시킨다.
'근거 제시의 for'는 사용할 수 없다. 'troubled'가 홀로 앞으로 선행될 수 없다.
'too'는 물론 부정사와 연결되어야 하므로 사용할 수 없다.
