Exercise
Many of them shared with us their tremendous need to be informed , to be kept up-to-date on their medical condition and to be told when the end was near.
Second, we have tried to isolate some of the key factors that govern service quality, and offer examples of organizations that manage service well and of some that manage it poorly.
If you are a man, you can point out that most poets and men of science are male; if you are a woman, you can retort that so are most criminals.
要點分析和參考譯文
要點：“need”后面有三個并列的不定式短語的被動式坐定語。即：“to be informed”，“to be kept up-to-date on their medical condition”和“to be told when the end was near”
參考譯文：他們中許多人和我們一樣極其需要獲得信息，享有最先進的醫(yī)療條件，以及在臨終前得知自己就要離開人世。
要點：此句為并列復合句。從句that govern service quality是定語從句，修飾factors；第一個并列連詞and連接的是第二個分句。其中，that manage service well 是定語從句，修飾organizations；第二個并列連詞and連接的是examples的并列后置定語。Of some是指：examples of some organizations。從句that manage it poorly 作定語，修飾some。代詞it指的是” service”
參考譯文：其次，我們力圖挑選出一些決定服務質(zhì)量的關(guān)鍵性因素，并提供一些實例來說明有些商業(yè)機構(gòu)把服務管理得很好，而有些卻很差。
要點：這是一個句型結(jié)構(gòu)十分對稱的并列復合句。分號前為第一分句，從屬連詞if引導的是條件狀語從句，that引導的從句是動詞短語point out 的賓語。分句二的結(jié)構(gòu)基本與分句一的相同。需要指出的是分句二由that引導的賓語從句中，作者使用了倒裝的形式most criminals 是主語，so是表語，代替male以避免重復。本句是表示兩種事物的對比，倒裝的使用有較強的表現(xiàn)力。
參考譯文：如果你是男人，你會指出，大多數(shù)的詩人和科學家都是男性的；如果你是女人，你會反駁說，大多數(shù)罪犯也都是男性的。
