From the middle-class family perspective, much of this, understandably, looks far less like an opportunity to exercise more financial responsibility, and a good deal more like a frightening acceleration of the wholesale shift of financial risk onto their already overburdened shoulders.(2007 年 Text3)

句子主干为：Much of this, looks far less like an opportunity and more like a frightening acceleration.在该句中，from短语是介词短语做状语，understandably是副词做插入语。opportunity后面的to do不定式短语为后置定语，修饰前面的名词;acceleration名词后面的of介词短语of the wholesale shift 是后置定语，修饰前面的名词;shift后面的of短语of financial risk修饰前面的shift。整个是A of B of C结构，可以倒译成C的B的A：经济风险的转移的加速。onto介词短语做后置定语，修饰前面的名词短语，并且和shift为固定搭配，可译为：向他们已经不堪重负的肩膀上的转移。

译文：可以理解，从中产阶级家庭的角度来看，这根本不像是一个行使更多经济职责的机会，而更像是加速将经济风险大规模转移到他们已经不堪重负的肩膀上。
