Question

Now we must also examine the culture as we Mexican Americans have experienced it, passing from a sovereign people to compatriots with newly arriving settlers to, finally, a conquered people—a charter minority on our own land.  标志：   /Now/ we must also examine the culture   /as   we Mexican Americans have experienced it/, /passing from   a sovereign people to   compatriots with newly arriving settlers to   , finally   , a conquered people—a charter minority on our own land/.  解释：   主句中的/as   we Mexican Americans have experienced it/是examine的状语，说明审视的角度；后面直到句尾的分词结构又是experience的状语，详述了经历的具体过程。就是这个分词有些难懂，因为我们熟知的结构是from...to...，没有见过、也没有想到过后面居然还有一个to，因此看到这个套了一个插入语的newly arriving settlers to, finally   , a conquered people的时候头脑发生混乱，不明所以、不知所措。这里的to还是与前面的from搭配的，也就是说，原文的结构是：from... to... to...   。 5 gre
