　　【結(jié)構(gòu)分析】本句結(jié)構(gòu)比較清晰，是一個(gè)復(fù)合句。句首的不定式短語(yǔ)To make the technology as simple as possible作全句的目的狀語(yǔ)。主句為Sony, HP, and other vendors are finally creating software….關(guān)系代詞that引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句that can be used across all their devices修飾先行詞software，that在從句中作主語(yǔ)，并且使用了被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。第一個(gè)破折號(hào)后面是對(duì)across all their devices的具體說(shuō)明，注意這里采用了whether…or…引導(dǎo)的讓步狀語(yǔ)從句省略whether的特殊形式be it PCs, TVs, or set。第二個(gè)破折號(hào)后top boxes是對(duì)software的最終闡釋?zhuān)�我們�(nèi)サ糁虚g讓步狀語(yǔ)作的分隔成分，可以連接全句為Sony, HP, and other vendors are finally creating software that can be used across all their devices—top boxes。

　　【參考譯文】一項(xiàng)研究表明，生活在嚴(yán)重空氣污染地區(qū)的女性，暴露在車(chē)輛尾氣、燃煤發(fā)電廠、森林火災(zāi)所產(chǎn)生和排放的無(wú)形的微小顆粒中，越來(lái)越容易患心臟病，甚至?xí)�因此直接�?dǎo)致死亡。
