結構劃分：①I(mǎi)n our rapidly changing economy,
②we more than ever need people in the workplace
③who can take initiative and exercise their imagination
④“to respond to unexpected events”.
重點(diǎn)單詞：
workplace n. 工作
take initiative 發(fā)揮主動(dòng)性
unexpected a. 想象不到的
exercise their imagination 運用想象力
語(yǔ)法點(diǎn)：地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ);定語(yǔ)從句;并列結構
語(yǔ)法分析：本句第一部分是介詞短語(yǔ)“In our rapidly changing economy,”作地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ)，修飾整個(gè)句子，譯為：在經(jīng)濟形勢迅速轉變中，逗號后面整個(gè)為主句，主干部分是主謂賓，為“we more than ever need people in the workplace.”其中more than ever 為狀語(yǔ)，修飾謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞need，in the workplace為介詞短語(yǔ)作定語(yǔ)，修飾名詞people，整體譯為：我們比以往任何時(shí)候都更需要人;后面跟著(zhù)由who引導的定語(yǔ)從句 “who can take initiative and exercise their imagination “to respond to unexpected events.”，修飾名詞people，該從句里面由and構成兩個(gè)謂語(yǔ)的并列，并包含一個(gè)to do 短語(yǔ)作目的狀語(yǔ);該從句可譯為“人在工作中可以發(fā)揮主動(dòng)性、運用想象力，以“應付突發(fā)事件?！倍ㄕZ(yǔ)從句修飾名詞people，所以可以把從句整個(gè)提到people的前面進(jìn)行翻譯：那些在工作中可以發(fā)揮主動(dòng)性、運用想象力，以“應付突發(fā)事件的”人。
