1.But hopes of an end to the recession were dashed with figures showing the value of goods and services sold fell by a little under a half percent between July and September.
参考翻译：但是新的数据表明，7至9月份物品和服务价格下跌大约0.5%。使人们对经济衰退结束的希望破灭。
结构分析：这句话的主干是hopes were dashed。an end to the recession补充说明是什么希望。with figures showing现在分词做做伴随状语。showing后面是宾语从句，表示数据反映出的内容。
2.In an unusually blunt message to their flock, issued from the Vatican, the bishops said that Africa needed leaders who would work for the good of the people.
参考翻译：从梵蒂冈发出的非常直接的信息中，神父们表示，非洲需要为了人民的福祉而工作的领袖。
结构分析：这句话的主语和谓语是：the bishops said。In an unusually blunt message to their flock是状语。issued from the Vatican是过去分词做后置定语，修饰message。who would work for the good of the people是定语从句，修饰leaders。
3.Forty-four wealthy Germans have joined the campaign. They say anyone with more than 750,000 dollars in the bank should pay more tax.
参考翻译：共有44名德国富豪参与了该活动。他们表示，任何银行账户拥有750,000美元以上的人都应该缴纳更多的税款。
结构分析：join参加，相当于take part in。with more than 750,000 dollars是介词短语做后置定语，修饰anyone。
