Ⅰ.原文释译
MASTERS OF TIME
In the quiet courtyards① of Xi San Suo，behind the high walls of the Forbidden City，time ticks at its own pace. If it hadn't been for a three- episode② documentary，outsiders would never have known that the plainly-dressed③ people working here are masters of their craft，who have spent their lives restoring precious④ antiques⑤. Among these is the clock restoration⑥ master，Wang Jin.
本句是主从复合句。“If it ...documentary”为if引导的与过去事实相反的虚拟条件句；主句中的that引导宾语从句，其中who引导定语从句，修饰先行词masters。
among位于句首时，句子使用倒装语序。
Walking through the seven crimson gates towards his workplace⑦，Wang Jin still regards himself as an ordinary worker in the Palace Museum，although now he is often stopped by admirers wanting their photo taken with him. Day in，day out⑧，Mr Wang and his students spend their time restoring clocks dating back hundreds of years.But for quite some time，he and his student Qi Haonan used to be the only two people repairing timepieces⑨ in the Palace Museum.
本句是主从复合句。“Walking through ...his workplace”是v.-ing形式的短语作时间状语；句中although引导让步状语从句；其中wanting their photo taken with him是v.-ing形式的短语作定语，修饰admirers。
Qing emperors were very fond of clocks.Therefore，in order to please⑩ them，foreign envoys presented these emperors with the most intricate and splendid timepieces.Today，the Palace Museum has one of the most significant collections of timepieces in the world，mainly originating from Europe and China.With objects ranging from small pocket watches to clocks over one metre in height，each of these requires its own unique method of restoration.Given the complexity of the work and the lack of necessary materials，this means that each expert can work on a maximum of two large pieces a year.But，through their painstaking efforts，Mr Wang and his students do more than repair the clocks—they bring them back to life.
The only sound to break the silence in Wang Jin's workshop is the chiming melody of the repaired and polished clocks.To Wang Jin it is the most beautiful music in the world.Now，after eight months of endless adjustments，the time has finally come for Mr Wang to wind up the gigantic clocks that date back to the time of Emperor Qianlong.The intricately fashioned objects that have stood still for centuries instantly come back to life：water flows，boats sail，dogs bark ，chickens flap their wings and a woman starts to spin.It is a truly awe-inspiring moment.It is suddenly clear that when the clock masters say that “these antiques have lives”，it is neither an exaggeration nor a metaphor.
“the only＋名词”后常跟不定式作定语。
But，despite the combined work of several generations of masters，it seems unlikely that the restoration of the clocks will ever be complete. Even if every clock in the Palace Museum were restored，there would still be work to do，because restoration would probably need to begin again on the clocks that were repaired long ago. This is a race against time that can never be won！Nonetheless ，Mr Wang remains optimistic about the future of these timepieces.Following in the footsteps of his own teacher all those years ago，Mr Wang has now passed on his skills to the new members，who will take
on many of the future repairs.What's more，inspired to follow in his father's footsteps，Mr Wang's son now has also taken up repairing antique clocks.This new generation of artisans will not only help preserve traditional skills；the innovation they bring to the craft will also ensure that the art of clock repairing stands the test of time.
本句是使用了虚拟语气的主从复合句。其中even if引导让步状语从句；because引导原因状语从句，其中that引导定语从句，修饰clocks。
In today's fast-paced world，the saying that “time waits for no man” has never seemed more apt.Yet inside the hidden courtyards of Xi San Suo，there is something timeless about the way Mr Wang and his colleagues sedately piece together the past with skilful hands and modest hearts.It is as if they have become one with their craft and with the history of the country.

“Among ...master”是完全倒装句，由表示地点的介词短语开头。为了保持句子平衡或使上下文衔接紧密，有时可将状语或表语置于句首，句中主语和谓语完全倒装。在表语置于句首的这类倒装结构中，要注意其中的谓语应与其后的主语保持一致，而不是与位于句首的表语保持一致。
完全倒装句的其他类型：
①当表示地点的here和there位于句首时，其后用完全倒装形式。
②当副词away、down、in、off、out、over、round、up等位于句首时，其后也用完全倒装形式。这类倒装句的谓语通常是表示移动或状态(存在)的不及物动词，如go、come、stand、sit等。
③有时为了强调，可将谓语部分的现在分词、过去分词或不定式置于句首，从而构成倒装。
这类倒装句的主语只能是名词，若主语为代词，则不能倒装。例如：
Here it comes.它来了。
