和of weakness in
the labor market
介词短语做定语修饰其前面的名词;That引导宾语从句;making ends
meet 作定语修饰前面的time.

收支平衡;
【例句释义】:非自愿的兼职工作的增加成为劳动力市场疲软的证据,这意味着许多人将很难维持生计。
【典型例句2】:

【例句解析】:主句为They are only classified as voluntary
part-time workers;if引导条件状语从句;本句出现宾语从句that 的省略they chose to work less than 35 hours a

【难点点拨】:本句嵌套两个定语从句;

本篇文章的长难句结构多为介词短语、定语从句的修饰成分较多,所以,使句子结构变长变难,定语从句的判断要注意几点:1.定语从句引导词(关系词)在从句中,做成分;2.who
的先行词为人;所以出现人+who的形式,多数为who引导的定语从句。最后,中公伴你一路同行,愿风雨中,能够坚持到底,等到彩虹的到来。
