长难句解析
The manager of a wet market1 told2 Reuters reporters3 that prices for potatoes and flour have risen due to a lack of fuel but people now felt safer because of military presence in the city.4
一家菜市场的管理者告诉路透社记者，由于缺乏燃料，土豆和面粉的价格已经上涨，但由于有军队驻扎在这座城市里，人们现在感到更安全了。
解：1主语+2谓语+3宾语+4宾语从句
析：该句的宾语从句“that prices ... in the city”较长，是but连接的两个表示转折含义的句子，并且两个并列句中都分别包含了一原因状语。在“that prices ... of fuel”中，“prices for potatoes and flour”是主语，“have risen”是谓语，“due to a lack of fuel”是介词短语作原因状语；在“people now ... in the city”中，“people”是主语，“felt”是系动词，“safer”是表语，“because of ... in the city”是原因状语。
