  句子分析:

  第一、句子可以拆分为三段:Astrophysicists working with ground-based detectors at the South Pole and balloon-borne instruments / are closing in on such structures, / and may report their findings soon.

  第二、句子主干结构是:

  1)主语+并列谓语Astrophysicists...are closing...and may report...2)分词短语working with ground-based detectors at the South Pole and balloon-borne instruments是主语的定语。

  第三、词的处理:

  working with 使用,以……为工作手段

  ground-based detectors 陆基探测器

  the South Pole 南极

  balloon-borne instruments 球载仪器

  are closing in on 正越来越近

  structures 云系

  findings 观测结果

  完整的译文:

  73)天体物理学家使用南极陆基探测器及球载仪器,正越来越近地观测这些云系,也许不久会报告他们的观测结果。

  74) If the small hot spots look as expected, that will be a triumph for yet another scientific idea, a refinement of the Big Bang called the inflationary universe theory.

  句子分析:
