(2)の文章構造を教えて欲しいです。
コロンで挿入されている部分が特に分かりません。
if〜は名詞節を導けますか？

One recent Halloween my five-year-old son entered a *pumpkin-decorating contest at his school. He proudly took his entry to his school. It was a wild combination of *carvings, paint and feathers which he had constructed himself. We placed it among the other creative pumpkins witches, a snowman, and even a 5 bubble-gum-blowing pumpkin (wearing a baseball cap. I thought that the judges were going to have a tough time choosing a winner. They must have thought the same thing, because when we returned to the school that evening, we discovered all the pumpkins had been awarded the same black-and- gold ribbon>My son, eagerly looking to see if his entry had won, kept asking me, 10 "Which pumpkin won? Where's the winner?” What could I say? "Well, it looks like everyone won. Look. You got a ribbon, son!" Kids are smart. "Yeah, but who won?" he asked. I could sense his disappointment - and my own. Why have a contest if you're not going to pick a winner? > I understand that the school was trying to convey that everyone had done a great 15 job, but I worry [that (3)ª a different message was sent that losing is a hardship no one O should face 7

コンマが付いていてややこしいときでも、とりあえずコンマの外を見て文型を取っていきます。

｢My son｣がS、コンマで挟まれている部分をとりあえず無視して、｢kept asking｣がV、｢me｣がO1、｢which pumpkin～winner?｣がO2になります。
《ask O1 O2 （O1にO2を尋ねる）》の形ですね。
あとは、コンマで挟まれている部分の｢if～｣は｢～かどうか｣という名詞節を導けます。

こんな感じでどうでしょうか？
