要点分析和参考译文
要点：这是一个由and 连接的并列复合句。And前面的句子是强调句，强调的成分是he.It仅位先行代词，没有意义。Mostly 用作副词，意为多半。 For fear（that）= in order thatshould not happen意为生怕，以免。例如：I darent tell you what he did , for fear that he should be angry with me.（我不敢将他的.事告诉你，怕他因此对我发脾气）。To leave her by herself相当于to leave her alone.
参考译文：大部分时间都是他在讲话。他似乎害怕停下来，生怕话一停，她就会请他离开。
要点：本句由whereas 连接在一起的两个分句并列而成。the latter requiring an examinee to arrange a set of pictures into a sequence so that they tell a comprehensible story.是现在分词独立主格结构；the latter是现在分词 requiring的逻辑主语：the latter指的是 an example of a performance subtest . so that they tell a comprehensible story 是so that 引导的目的状语从句；其中主语they指的是：a set of pictures
