The increase in the numbers of married women employed outside the home in the 20th century had less to do with the mechanization of housework and an increase in leisure time for these women than it did with their own economic necessity and with high marriage rates that shrank the available pool of single women workers, previously, in many cases, the only women employers would hire.
句中with the mechanization;with their own economic necessity;with high marriage rates是做什么成分,如何翻译呢?
谢谢回答
Jajil老师大意了。
previously, in many cases, the only women employers would hire. 这是一个名词词组,中心词为the only women (后接定语从句employers would hire)。这个名词词组为前面single women workers的同位语。
本句中pool的语义为: a supply of things or people that are available for use 人力或物资储备
高结婚率缩减了可雇佣单身女工的人力储备,以前大多情况下,雇主们只会雇佣单身女工。
