【原句】

Razitch’s latest book , Left Back: A Century of Failed School Reforms , traces the roots of anti-intellectualism in our schools, concluding they are anything but a counterbalance to the American distaste for intellectual pursuits.

【精讲】

句子的主干是Razitch ’ s latest book … traces the roots … 。 Left Back:A Century of Failed School Reforms 是book的同位语,也是插入语,起解释说明作用。 of anti-intellectualism in our schools 为介词短语作roots的后置定语。concluding引导的是结果状语,其中 they are anything but a counterbalance to the American distaste for intellectual pursuits 是省略引导词that的宾语从句,作 concluding 的宾语。宾语从句中, to the American distaste for intellectual pursuits 是 a counterbalance 的后置定语，而 for intellectual pursuits 又是 distaste 的后置定语。

【译文】
