[打卡] “超人阶层”诞生？

今天的外刊金句来自《经济学人》“活到120岁不是梦”：

Some people, observing billionaires’ interest in longevity-promoting startups, worry that the benefits will be captured mainly by the rich, leading to a class of long-lived Übermenschen lording it over short-lived ordinary folk.

词/短语：

1. longevity-promoting: adj.推动长寿
   

2. startup: n.初创公司
3. a class of...：一个...的阶层
4. Übermenschen：尼采提出的“超人”
5. lord it over...：支配...
   

1. observing billionaires’ interest in longevity-promoting startups 后置定语
2. worry that...：that 引导定语从句
3. leading to...: 结果状语从句
4. a class of long-lived Übermenschen lording it over short-lived ordinary folk 带逻辑主语的动名词短语（a class of long-lived Übermenschen 是逻辑主语）
