【昨日回顾】
Therefore, animals cannot have rights. The idea of punishing a tiger that kills somebody is absurd, for exactly the same reason, so is the idea that tigers have rights.
因此动物不可能有权利。惩罚吃人的老虎的想法是荒谬的。同样，认为老虎有权利也是荒谬的。
【今日长难句】
However, this is only one account, and by no means an uncontested one. It denies rights not only to animals but also to some people—for instance, to infants, the mentally incapable and future generations.
【结构解析】
1. 首句为and连接的并列句，后半句为省略形式，by no means an uncontested one = by no means is this an uncontested one; 当前后主语一致时即可省略主语和系动词，其中by no means 之后的语序为半倒装（详见下文）。
2. 二句主干为主谓宾，即It denies rights; not only to animals but also to some people为后置定语修饰rights;
3. “—”之后的for instance, to infants, the mentally incapable and future generations是some people 的同位语，解释说明some people 的具体内容。
【词的处理】
account / əˈkaunt / n. 账户；理由；认知理解
uncontested / ˌʌnkənˈtestid / adj. 无争议的
deny / diˈnai / vt. 否认
infant / ˈinfənt / n. 婴幼儿
incapable / inˈkeipəbl / adj. 没有能力的
generation / ˌdʒenəˈreiʃn / n. 一代人
【参考译文】
However, this is only one account, and by no means an uncontested one. It denies rights not only to animals but also to some people—for instance, to infants, the mentally incapable and future generations.
然而，这只是一种认识，而且是一种有争议的认识。这种认识不仅剥夺了动物的权利，而且也剥夺了某些人的权利，例如婴儿，这些还不会用大脑来思考问题的下一代。
【明日长难句】
In addition, it is unclear what force a contract can have for people who never consented to it: how do you reply to somebody who says “I don’t like this contract”?
【半倒装：小知识点】
半倒装句,即：部分倒装句：只把谓语的一部分（如助动词、情态动词等）移到主语之前,或把句子的强调部分提前.
例：Only once was John late to class. 这里只是将助动词(be动词)was移到主语John前面,而实意动词late仍在主语后面,所以是部分倒装,即半倒装句.
注意：以否定词开头的句子要“半倒装,如：no, not, never, seldom, little, hardly, at no time, in no way, not until, by no means, on no account等词在句首,句子要倒装.
例：Not until yesterday did little John change his mind.
直到昨天小约翰才改变了主意。
Never have I seen such a performance.
如果否定词不在句首,则句子不倒装.
例：I have never seen such a performance.
