A desire to throw over reality a light， that never was， might give way abruptly to the desire on the part of what we might consider a novelist-scientist to record exactly and concretely the structure and texture of a flower
不容易看懂，
我觉得可能的意思就是说我们放弃希望时那种复杂的心情或许就是如同小说家和科学家描述的花的结构和纹理一样复杂？

我凌乱了。。。。

这个杨鹏长难句里有解释。好像本身句子就不完整，省略了（it is ），应该是it is a desire 。。。。。 结果 a desire 就成了句子的主体，后面的都是在修饰它。
你可以找电子版瞅瞅。我也解释不好

A desire 。。。that never was might give way abruptly to the desire 。。。
一种什么样的愿望永远不会突然让路于这样的愿望。
两个desire后面的内容都是修饰它们的。
to throw over reality a light 是修饰第一个desire的，what we might consider a novelist-scientist to record exactly and concretely the structure and texture of a flower 指的是第二个desire，整个这个句子在开头省略了it is。

A desire to throw over reality a light that never was might give way abruptly to the desire on the part of what we might consider a novelist-scientist to record exactly and concretely the structure and texture of a flower.

a desire to throw light over reality might be replaced suddenly by a novelist-scientist's desire of recording exactly the structure and texture of a flower.
a light that never was需要context才能解释啊。
这是文学评论么？verbal里面的那些文学评论都读得让我吐血。

2. （this is ）a desire to throw over reality a light that never was might give away abruptly to the desire on the part of what we might consider a novelist-scientist to record exactly and concretely the structure and texture of a flower

（这是一种）照亮现实的欲望，此欲望从来就不会唐突的取代后面的那种欲望，后者是我们可以将其部分的理解为一个兼任小说加和科学家的人想要去准确并具体的记录下一朵花的结构和文理的那种意义上的欲望。  

这是长难句上的解释，LZ看一下~

胡敏长难句第二句，为GRE中最难一句，个人觉得没时间的话可以略去不看。见http://wenku.baidu.com/view/702c99205901020207409cf7.html看了楼下的解释，觉得很有道理。赞同赞同。其实和沙发版主的点拨本质是一样的。
