Women are on the verge of outnumbering men in the workforce for the first time, a historic reversal caused by long-term changes in women's roles and massive job losses for men during this recession.
分析:
1 本句是一個簡單句
2 句子的主干是women are on the verge
3 a historic reversal是前面整個句子的同位語
4 caused... recession是原因狀語
5 在這個原因狀語中有一個并列結構,一個是long-term changes,一個是massive ob losses
參考譯文:
