  2. The same thing happens to this day, though on a smaller scale, [wherever a sediment-laden river or stream emerges from a mountain valley onto relatively flat land, dropping its load as the current slows]: the water usually spreads out fan-wise, depositing the sediment in the form of a smooth, fan-shaped slope.

  【结构简析】主语 + 谓语 + 状语从句 + 简单句

  【参考译文】只要多泥沙河流从山谷流入平原,随着流速变缓一路沉淀泥沙,这种情况今天依然发生,虽然规模较小:水往往呈扇形扩展,从而泥沙沉淀为平缓的扇形斜坡。

  3. Some early societies ceased to consider certain rites essential to their well-being and abandoned them, nevertheless, they retained as parts of their oral tradition the myths that had grown up around the rites and admired them for their artistic qualities rather than for their religious usefulness.

  【参考译文】一些早期社群组织不再认为这些仪式与幸福息息相关,并废弃了它们,但是,还是将源于这些仪式的神话作为口头传说的一部分保存了下来,欣赏它们的艺术品质而非宗教意义。
