今天的句子：

Although the Supreme Court of the United States had prohibited intentional racial discrimination in jury selection as early as the 1880 case of Strauder v. West Virginia, the practice of selecting so called elite or blue ribbon juries provided a convenient way around this and other antidiscrimination laws.

你首先切成这样：

1.although　as early as the 1880 case of Strauder v. West Virginia

2.the Supreme Court of the United States had prohibited intentional racial discrimination in jury selection

3.the practice of selecting so called elite or blue ribbon juries

4. provided a convenient way

5. around this and other antidiscrimination laws

(切对了吗!)

然后再一句句的翻译：

1.although　as early as the 1880 case of Strauder v. West Virginia

虽然早在1880年的西方Strauder v. West Virginia案例中，

2.the Supreme Court of the United States had prohibited intentional racial discrimination in jury selection

美国的最高法院就已经阻止在选举陪审团时存在有意识的种族歧视

3.the practice of selecting so called elite or blue ribbon juries

选举中所谓的精英或blue　ribbon　(一看就是习惯用法不认识!)的惯例。(blue-ribbon　adj. 第一流的, 特选的

在十四、十五世纪人们对于在某种竞技或决斗中获胜者的奖励便是给其佩戴一条蓝色的缎带，于是便出现了blue ribbon这一短语。后来又专用这一短语来比喻"优秀，一流"之意.)

4. provided a convenient way

提供了一条方便的路

5. around this and other antidiscrimination laws

绕开这种或者另外的反歧视的法律

参考译文：

虽然早在1880年的西方Strauder v. West Virginia案例中，美国的最高法院就已经阻止在选举陪审团时存在有意识的种族歧视，选举中所谓的精英陪审团的惯例却提供了一条方便之路，绕开了这种或者另外的反种族歧视法。(也就是说种族歧视在陪审团制度中依然存在!)

实战中的句子就该这样读!
