【語法分析】
本句的主干為George Bush is to unveil a reform plan，過去分詞短語pushed by polls and by forecasts作原因狀語。Polls后面跟了一個定語從句that show..problems對其進行修飾，現(xiàn)在分詞短語showing that… finances作后置定語修飾forecasts。
【譯文】
民意調(diào)查顯示，醫(yī)療是美國國內(nèi)主要問題之一；預(yù)測表明，那些在生育高峰期出生并面臨退休的人將會拖垮政府的財政。在這雙重壓力下，喬治·布什將在下周的國情咨文演講中宣布一項改革計劃。
【考情分析】
當(dāng)看到這句話時，不要被它的長度所嚇倒。這句話的本質(zhì)實際上就是一個簡單的非謂語作狀語，如此龐大的結(jié)構(gòu)只不過是因為前面的狀語部分當(dāng)中的某些名詞性成分被加上了從句或分詞結(jié)構(gòu)等修飾成分，其實整句的核心結(jié)構(gòu)可以寫成“Pushed by polls and by forecasts，George Bush is to unveil a reform plan in next week’s state-of-the-union address.” 這樣看的話，就清楚多了。
