GRE長難句解析:公司機構(gòu)重組

　　His colleague, Michael Beer, says that far too many companies have applied re engineering in a mechanistic fashion, chopping out costs without giving sufficient thought to long term profitability.

　　[句子主干]His colleague,…, says that… ,chopping out costs without giving…

　　[語法難點]有省略。chopping out costs without giving sufficient …分句是非限定性定語從句。修飾的是前一分句的整體意思。without后面要跟現(xiàn)在分詞giving。

　　[句子翻譯] 他的同時邁克爾·比爾說，為數(shù)眾多的公司以簡單機械的方式進行機構(gòu)重組，降低了成本，但卻未能充分考慮長期贏利。

　　[翻譯技巧]far too many譯為“太多的(比實際需要)”。re-engineering in a mechanistic fashion應譯為“以簡單機械的方式”。chop out譯為“削減”。
