【长难句分析】

1. The desire to be connected has brought solitude to a ( n) 39 as we've known it.本句是as 引导的原因状语从句，主句中的主语to be connected动词不定式修饰the desire 为后置定语。

2. People have become so 40 in the world of networks and connections that one can often be contacted 41 they'd rather not be.

在网络连接世界中，人们已经变得如此地可达到以致即使不愿意被联系，也可能经常被联系。So… that …引导的结果状语从句。

3.Being reachable might feel like a 47 to those who may not want to be able to be contacted at all times.

动名词做主语，后面who may not want to be able to be contacted at all times.是those的后置定语从句。

4. I suppose the positive side is that solitude is still possible for anyone who 48 wants it.

Suppose的宾语从句，在宾语从句中that 引导的表语从句。

5. Regardless of anyone's view on the subject, it's hard to imagine what life would be like 55 dailyadvancements in technology. 尽管在这个问题观点不同。如果没有每日的技术进步，难以想象生活会是什么样。Regardless of 引导的让步状语从句。后面主句中是imagine的宾语从句，what 为连词。
