It was mostly he who talked and he seemed afraid to stop for fear she'd ask him to leave her by herself.

An example of a verbal subtest would be vocabulary, whereas an example of a performance subtest would be picture arrangement, the latter requiring an examinee to arrange a set of pictures into a sequence so that they tell a comprehensible story.

A body at rest will remain at rest and a body in motion remain in motion at a constant speed in a straight line, unless acted upon by an external force.

要點(diǎn)分析和參考譯文

要點(diǎn)：這是一個(gè)由and 連接的并列復(fù)合句。And前面的句子是強(qiáng)調(diào)句，強(qiáng)調(diào)的成分是he.It僅位先行代詞，沒有意義。Mostly 用作副詞，意為“多半”。For fear(that)=in order that…should not happen意為“生怕……，以免……”。例如：I daren't tell you what he did, for fear that he should be angry with me.（我不敢將他的事告訴你，怕他因此對(duì)我發(fā)脾氣）。To leave her by herself相當(dāng)于to leave her alone.

參考譯文：大部分時(shí)間都是他在講話。他似乎害怕停下來，生怕話一停，她就會(huì)請(qǐng)他離開。

要點(diǎn)：本句由whereas 連接在一起的兩個(gè)分句并列而成。"the latter requiring an examinee to arrange a set of pictures into a sequence so that they tell a comprehensible story."是現(xiàn)在分詞獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)："the latter"是現(xiàn)在分詞"requiring"的邏輯主語："the latter"指的是"an example of a performance subtest"。"so that they tell a comprehensible story"是"so that"引導(dǎo)的目的狀語從句；其中主語"they"指的是："a set of pictures"。

參考譯文：口頭語言測(cè)試的一個(gè)實(shí)例是測(cè)驗(yàn)詞匯能力，而行為表現(xiàn)測(cè)試的實(shí)例是測(cè)驗(yàn)排列圖畫能力。后者要求受測(cè)試者把一組圖畫排序，這個(gè)次序應(yīng)該能夠表達(dá)一個(gè)可以理解的故事。

要點(diǎn)：這是一個(gè)并列復(fù)合句。And 連接兩個(gè)句子，構(gòu)成并列句。Unless 是連詞，連接下一個(gè)子句，做前面兩個(gè)主句的狀語從句。Unless 后面省略了it is.At rest和in motion是兩個(gè)介詞短語，分別作body的定語，意思為“處于靜止?fàn)顟B(tài)”和“處于運(yùn)動(dòng)狀態(tài)中”

參考譯文：除非受到外力作用，靜止的物體將繼續(xù)保持靜止，運(yùn)動(dòng)的物體將繼續(xù)作勻速直線運(yùn)動(dòng)。
