1. If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas, superiors will have greater confidence in his or her ability to cope back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more prevalent. (2003. 閱讀. Text 3)
【譯文】如果某個員工能夠成功完成國外任務(wù),那么他的上司對他或她處理國內(nèi)工作的能力會更有信心,因為在國內(nèi)需要考慮跨文化因素和外語因素的情況越來越普遍。
【析句】復(fù)合句。整個句子以條件狀語從句if an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas開頭,主句在后,superiors will have greater confidence in his ability to cope back in the US,其中含有短語have confidence in...,his ability作in的賓語,而to cope...則是his ability的賓語補足語。最后where cross-cultural considerations...are becoming more and more prevalent作the United States的定語從句。
2. A second language isn't generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal. (2003. 閱讀. Text 3)
【譯文】通常來說,會說第二外語并非在商界獲得工作的必要條件,但當(dāng)應(yīng)聘者其他條件相當(dāng)時,外語技能優(yōu)秀的應(yīng)聘者更有優(yōu)勢。
【析句】復(fù)合句。整個句子由兩個成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系的分句構(gòu)成,前句A second language isn't required to get a job為簡單句,后句主句為but having language skills gives a candidate the edge,注意其中的短語give sb the edge是have advantage over的意思。主句后還有時間狀語從句when our qualifications appear to be equal.
3. The employee posted abroad who speaks the country's principal language has an opportunity to fast-forward certain negotiations, and can have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly. (2003. 閱讀. Text 3)
【譯文】那些在國外就職并且會說當(dāng)?shù)刂饕Z言的員工有機會更直接準(zhǔn)確的談判,并且能以對當(dāng)?shù)匚幕牧私饷靼资裁辞闆r下應(yīng)該進(jìn)展緩慢些。
【析句】復(fù)合句。句子主干是The employee has an opportunity to...and can have the cultural insight to know when從句。
主句主語The employee后有兩個修飾成分,首先是posted abroad為過去分詞作定語,然后是who speaks the country's principal language作定語從句。最后when it is better to move more slowly作know的賓語從句。
