這句話主語"I"，謂語是過去時(shí)被動(dòng)態(tài)"was drowned in"，介詞賓語是"the pity and anger"，"evoked for..."應(yīng)該是過去分詞作狀語，邏輯主語還是"I"，"fleeing..."可看作是現(xiàn)在分詞作定語修飾"these people"，"to seek work"應(yīng)該是動(dòng)作"flee"所帶的目的狀語，（"flee"動(dòng)作接的賓語是"Oklahoma"），工作沒有找到，那找到了什么呢？通過"but"進(jìn)行一個(gè)轉(zhuǎn)折，"finding"應(yīng)該和前面的"fleeing"一樣做"these people"的修飾，動(dòng)作"find"后面的賓語是"nothing"，注意"save"在這是作介詞的，"cruelty, violence, the enmity of immoral banks and businesses , and the neglect by the state of its own people in the Land of the Free"都算是其的介詞賓語。
