【句子考点】定语从句;同位语
【句子结构】本句主干为主谓结构,谓语动词为has been widely noted,主语为Gilbert’s own interest in new music,其中介词短语in new music在修饰interest,译为:吉尔伯特本人对新音乐的兴趣众所周知。此外,冒号后面进一步解释说明。名词短语a classical-music critic作为Alex Ross的同位语,对Alex Ross的身份进行解释说明。从句who is capable of turning the Philharmonic into “a markedly different, more vibrant organization在修饰a man,在做a man的定语从句,进行修饰限定,译为:有能力将纽约爱乐乐团转变为“显著不同的、更具活力的团体。
