【结构】Just at the time when … , sb. are demanding that …

【解析】

[主干]

people were demanding sth.

[修饰主干的部分]

时间状语:Just at the time when it became obvious that health-care resources could not possibly meet the demands being made upon them 这整个部分是介宾结构 at the time 做时间状语,特殊点在于,time 后面跟了一个 when 引导的定语从句,这个定语从句中,it 是形式主语,后面 that 引导的名词性从句才是真正的主语。最后,being made upon them 是现在分词做后置定语,修饰 demands.

宾语从句:that their fundamental right to health-care be satisfied by the state 这是 that 引导的宾语从句,当前面是 demand 时,从句用虚拟语气,be satisfied by the state 前面省略了一个 should.

大部分使用联网计算机上传资料的人甚至意识不到他们做的这件事的重要性。

【结构】The majority of people who … are not even aware of the significance / damage … of what they are doing

【解析】

[主干]

The majority of people are not aware of the significance

[修饰主干的部分]

定语从句:who use networked computers to upload是who引导的定语从句,修饰people。

后置定语:of what they are doing,是介宾结构做后置定语,这里的宾语又比较特殊,是what引导的名词性从句做of的宾语,所以这里又是一个宾语从句。
