early days of photography, exposure times were notoriously long: the daguerreotype photographic method (producing an image on a silvered copper plate) could take several minutes to complete, resulting in blurred images as sitters shifted position or adjusted their limbs.（英语一2021年text3 ）

分析：该语句共有46个单词，其间包括了两个独立的语句、同位语、各种状语以及补语，成分比照凌乱，了解难度加大，形生长难句。

第一步辨认成分

首要，整个长难句可由中心的冒号切割为单独的两个语句，第二个语句是第一个语句的进一步说明阐明。

在第一个语句中，During the 1840s and 1850s和in the early days of photography都是在做时刻状语，exposure times were notoriously long为主句。

在第二个语句中，the daguerreotype photographic methodcould take several minutes to complete为骨干，其间to complete为主语补足语。主句中括号内的producing an image on a silvered copper plate是在做同位语，对主句中的主语the daguerreotype photographic method进行说明阐明。后边的resulting in blurred images和as sitters shifted position or adjusted their limbs都是在做状语，前者为成果状语，后者为缘由状语。

第二步翻译各有些

During the 1840s and 1850s,

译文：在19世纪40年代和50年代，

留心：此处要留心1840sh和1850s，不要翻成1840年和1850年。

in the early days of photography,

译文：在拍摄的前期，

exposure times were notoriously long

译文：曝光时刻是出了名的长

留心：此处exposure times为拍摄中的专有名词，译作曝光时刻。

the daguerreotype photographic method could take several minutes to complete,

译文：银版照相法可以需要几分钟才干结束，

producing an image on a silvered copper plate

译文：在镀银的铜板上照相

resulting in blurred images

译文：致使图像迷糊

留心：resultin致使，后接名词短语或v-ing短语。

as sitters shifted position or adjusted their limbs.

译文：因为坐着的人要改换方位或调整四肢

第三步骤语序，成整句

During the 1840s and 1850s, in the early days of photography, exposure times were notoriously long: the daguerreotype photographic method (producing an image on a silvered copper plate) could take several minutes to complete, resulting in blurred images as sitters shifted position or adjusted their limbs.

在19世纪40年代和50年代拍摄的前期，曝光时刻是出了名的长:银版照相法(在镀银的铜板上照相)可以需要几分钟才干结束，因为坐着的人要改换方位或调整四肢，致使图像迷糊。

留心：括号中的同位语做说明阐明的作用，用法和中文类似，所以在译文中也可直接照搬其方法接在名词后用括号进行说明阐明。句首的两个时刻状语从句在译成中文时可直接兼并在一同。句末的两个状语从句，成果状语标明在它所润饰的谓语发生后发生的成果，应后置；而缘由状语标明则大约前置，放在成果状语之前。
