【昨日回顾】

Hence it is metaphysical; but the means of expression is purely and exclusively physical: sound. I believe it is precisely this permanent coexistence of metaphysical message through physical means that is the strength of music.

因此，音乐是形而上学的；但音乐的表达方式却纯粹只有一种有形的形态——声音。这种无形的信息与其有形的表达方式永远共存，我认为正是这种共存才是音乐的力量所在。

【今日长难句】

It is also the reason why when we try to describe music with words, all we can do is articulate our reactions to it, and not grasp music itself.

【结构解析】

1. 句子主干为it is also the reason，译为：这就是为什么……/这就是……的原因；

2. why ……为定语从句，修饰the reason。定语从句的主干为主系表结构，即：all we can do/ is/ articulate our reactions to it, and not grasp music itself。when we try to describe music with words 为定语从句的时间状语。

【词的处理】

describe / diˈskraib / vt. 描述

articulate / ɑ:ˈtikjuleit; NAmE ɑ:rˈt- / adj. 清楚表达的

reaction / riˈækʃn / n. 反应

grasp / ɡrɑ:sp; NAmE ɡræsp / vt. 抓住，抓紧

【参考译文】

It is also the reason why when we try to describe music with words, all we can do is articulate our reactions to it, and not grasp music itself.

这就是为什么当我们尝试用语言来描述音乐时，我们能清楚的表达对音乐的反应，但并没有领会音乐的精髓。

【明日长难句】

Beethoven's importance in music has been principally defined by the revolutionary nature of his compositions. He freed music from hitherto prevailing conventions of harmony and structure.
