【語法分析】
本句的主干為George Bush is to unveil a reform plan，過去分詞短語pushed by polls and by forecasts作原因狀語。Polls后面跟了一個定語從句that show..problems對其進行修飾，現在分詞短語showing that… finances作后置定語修飾forecasts。
【譯文】
民意調查顯示，醫療是美國國內主要問題之一；預測表明，那些在生育高峰期出生并面臨退休的人將會拖垮政府的財政。在這雙重壓力下，喬治·布什將在下周的國情咨文演講中宣布一項改革計劃。
【考情分析】
當看到這句話時，不要被它的長度所嚇倒。這句話的本質實際上就是一個簡單的非謂語作狀語，如此龐大的結構只不過是因為前面的狀語部分當中的某些名詞性成分被加上了從句或分詞結構等修飾成分，其實整句的核心結構可以寫成“Pushed by polls and by forecasts，George Bush is to unveil a reform plan in next week’s state-of-the-union address.” 這樣看的話，就清楚多了。
