原句

There exists a social and cultural disconnect between journalists and their readers, which helps explain why the “standard templates” of the newsroom seem alien to many readers.(Text3. 2001)

exist / iɡˈzist / v.存在

disconnect / ˌdiskəˈnekt / n.分离;脱离

template / ˈtempleit / n.样板;模板

alien / ˈeiliən / adj.陌生的;不熟悉 n.外星人

你需要知道

1.逗号隔开的which引导非限制性定语从句,既可以修饰主句中的一个词,也可以修饰主句。在这里是修饰主句。

2.help do并不是两个谓语。我们平时常见的help sb. do 或者let sb. do里的do 实质上都是不定式to do 省略to 以后的形式,称为省略to的不定式,都是固定搭配,见到背下来即可,所以自己不要随便省哦!

翻译

新闻记者和读者之间存有社会和文化方面的脱节,这有助于解释为什么新闻编辑室的“标准模式”对众多读者来说似乎很陌生。
