　　【文章难句】
　　The Greeks assumed that the language structure had some connection with the process of thought, which took root in Europe long before people realized how diverse the language could be.
　　【词汇突破】
　　assume
　　vt. 承担；假定；采取；呈现
　　vi. 装腔作势；多管闲事
　　【结构分析】
　　这是一个复合句。主干结构是 The Greeks assumed ...。That the language ... process of thought 引导的整个是宾语从句；which took root in Europe 引导的是非性定语从句，修饰前面的宾语从句。long before people realized 是时间状语从句，how diverse the language could be 是 realized 的宾语从句。
　　【参考译文】
　　希腊人认为，语言结构与思维过程之间存在着某种联系。这一观点在人们尚未认识到语言的千差万别以前就早已在欧洲扎下了根。
