2016考研英语作文必背高分句：雇佣关系

the paid manager acting for the company was inmore direct relation with the men and theirdemands, but even he had seldom that familiarpersonal knowledge of the workmen which theemployer had often had under the more patriarchalsystem of the old family business now passing away.

译文：

领取报酬代表公司经营的经理与工人及其需求的关系更加直接，但是就连他对工人们也没有那种熟人之间的了解。而在正在消失的古老家族企业的那种更加家长式的制度下，雇主们却常常与他们的工人有这样的私人关系。

点睛：

本句是由but连接的表转折关系的两个分句。第一个分句的主干为the…manager…was in moredirect relation with…，acting for是现在分词作后置定语修饰manager。第二个分句的主干为…he hadseldom... knowledge of the workmen.，定语从句which the employer bad often had...惨饰前面的that familiar personal knowledge,passing away是现在分词短语作后置定语修饰前面的familybusiness。under the more patriarchal system of the old family business是介词短语作状语，修饰谓语had often had。
