However, he had at last been allowed to send a fax in which he informed the editor that the
he had been arrested while counting the 1,084 steps leading to the fifteen-foot wall which
surrounded the president's palace.
he had at last been allowed = he had at last been permitted = he had asked for permission
请求被允许做某事:be allowed to do, be permitted to do, asked for permission to do sth
permit v.许可,允许,准许 permission n.许可, 允许
in which -- which指代fax
while和现在分词搭配, 做时间状语, 表示“正在做某事的过程中”。
-- 可以用while引导的时间状语从句去替换。
-- While counting… = while he was counting…
现在分词做定语:
-- the steps leading to the president's palace 通向王宫的台阶。
-- the road leading to the forest 通向森林的路。
fifteen-foot做前置定语, 这里的名词必须上单数形式。
which引导的定语从句修饰wall, which指代wall。
-- wall which surrounded… (= wall surrounding…)
n 为了避免和前面的现在分词句式结构(leading)相同所以没有用surrounding.
