【分析】
the change是主语,and并列两个谓语动词met和prevented,the technical requirements of the new age是met的宾语,by引导状语,the decline in efficiency是prevented的宾语,that引导定语从句。
【词汇】
engage 从事;引入或吸引
meet the requirements of the new age满足新时代的要求
spoil 损坏 [spare the rod, spoil the child.棍棒底下出孝子。]
energetic 充满活力的
【译文】这种变化通过引入许多的专业因素从而适应了这个新时代的技术要求,并且这种变化阻止了效率的降低。这种效率的降低在精力充沛的创业者之后的第二代和第三代人的时候,经常会毁掉那些家族公司的财富。 |
