Progress in both areas is undoubtedly necessary for the social, political and intellectual development of these and all other societies; however, the conventional view that education should be one of the very highest priorities for promoting rapid economic development in poor countries is wrong.

词汇突破：

Undoubtedly 毫无疑问地

intellectual ①智力的，脑力的，理智的a ②(人)有才智的，智力发达的a

Society 社会(在此引申为国家)

Conventional 传统的a 同义词traditional

Priority ①优先处理的事，最重要的事情，首要事情[C];

Education is a top priority. 教育是当务之急。

Our first priority is to improve standards. 我们的头等大事是标准。

②优先，优先权，[U] A has priority over B.

句子分析：

部分主干：Progress is undoubtedly necessary for the development;

介词短语in both areas做progress的后置定语。

social, political and intellectual 并列的三个形容词做development的前置定语。

介词短语of these and all other societies做development的后置定语。

第二部分：

主干： the conventional view is wrong.

同位语从句that education should be one of the very highest priorities for promoting rapid economic development in poor countries解释 the conventional view

同位语从句的主干： education should be one of the very highest priorities

介词短语for promoting rapid economic development in poor countries做 priorities的后置定语。

介词短语in poor countries做development 的后置定语。

毫无疑问，这两个领域的进步对于这些国家以及其他所有国家的社会、政治和智力发展而言都必不可少，然而“为促进贫困国家经济快速发展，应该把教育放在最 优先考虑的位置。”这一传统观点却是错误的。
