[长难句突破]
The Aswan Dam, for example, stopped the Nile flooding but deprived Egypt of the fertile silt that floods left - all in return for a giant reservoir of disease which is now so full of silt that it barely generates electricity.
主体句式:The Aswan Dam stopped the Nile flooding but…
结构分析:本句主语后面跟了一个插入语“for example”,说明“The Aswan Dam”是作为一个例子来进一步说明上一句的内容。这个句子的主干部分由两个以but连接的并列结构组成、且构成了转折关系。后一个部分包含了一个that引导的定语从句。破折号后面的内容一个独立的句子,也是对前文进一步的补充说明。句子中首先包含了一个which引导的定语从句用来修饰disease,该从句中又包含了一个so .. that…结构。

在重大技术工程中,很少能像巨型水坝这样令人心驰神往的。可能正是因为人类长期听任旱涝灾害的摆布才使得人们如此痴迷于治理江河、使洪水听从人类调遣的理想。但使人着迷的同时也就造成了人们的盲目。有几个巨型大坝项目就颇有弊大于利的危险。
