其他成分：as a whole 定语； despite its brightening fortuning fortunes 插入语（这里的despite可以换为in spite of）；it must invest 定语从句 （这里省略了that）； to cover the cost of the capital it must invest to keep up with its surging traffic. 表目的的不定式
微观解析：the capital it must invest to keep up with its surging traffic. it must invest 为省略了that 的定语从句
to keep up with its traffic 为定语修饰 capital
句中较长的插入语可以转化为让步状语从句：though it owns brightening fortuning fortunes。

中，一定要根据语境来决定具体的表达。
Reaching our sales goal this quarter is along shot because of the economy. 由于经济原因，本季度我们不太可能完成销售目标. 主干识别：A financial vehicle is still a long shot.
其他成分：that saw the euro zone take most risk through equity, other governments a bit more through subordinated debt and private-sector investors the least through senior debt定语从句，that=financial vehicle 在翻译的时候一定单独成句。
翻译点拨：financial vehicle 不可能发出saw 的动作，所以不能翻译为：融资方式看见。其实就是指：融资方式是什么样子的；the euro zone take most risk through equity, 后面是并列引起的省略补全后是：other governments take a bit more through subordinated debt andprivate-sector investors take the least through senior debt is still a long shot.翻译出来是：欧元区通过普通股票吸收最多的风险，其他政府通过次级贷吸收稍多的风险，而私有行业的投资者则通过优先债吸收最少的风险。（翻译的时候注意调整语序）
参考译文：欧元区通过普通股票吸收最多的风险，其他政府通过次级贷吸收稍多的风险，而私有行业的投资者则通过优先债吸收最少的风险，这种融资模式依然是不太可能实现的。
