zhouyeying

2个句子，不懂（具体如下）
1"recent years have  brougt minority-owned businesses in the United States unprecedented opportunities- as well as new and significant risks.
(请问， 这个句子主语是萨，没有找到）
2" record their efforts to do so
(请问， 这个so是指代“record their efforts")

感觉你的两个句子都是从文中抽出的，得联系上下文才能说得清楚。

试翻译：
1、最近几年给美国的少数民族企业带来了空前的机遇，与此同时，也带来了巨大的风险。
2、整句是：Congress, in apparent agreement, has required by law that businesses awarded federal contracts of more than $500,000 do their best to find minority subcontractors and record their efforts to do so on forms filed with the government.
so是指businesses awarded federal contracts of more than $500,000 do their best to find minority subcontractors

供参考～～～

嗯，的确是原文中选的，但是尤其第一句，主语是啥啊？ 找不到？谢谢

1"recent years have  brougt minority-owned businesses in the United States unprecedented opportunities- as well as new and significant risks.

就是recent years是主语。字面上。可以理解为近年来（的种种因素吧），给少数派（比如American African啥的）在美国开的买卖和生意带来了前所未有的机会啊，同时也有新的和很大的风险。

我觉得主语是recent years

zhouyeying

这个我认为是时间壮语，昨天做题时突然觉得其实不必要作牛角尖语法，关

键是文章整个能否理解， 谢谢各位拉（我这样是不是逻辑有点问题啊，哈哈）
