《红宝书》考研英语词汇
每日一句
Says Korn / Ferry senior partner Dennis Carey: “I can’t think of a single search I’ve done where a board has not instructed me to look at sitting CEOs first.”
词汇突破
instruct [ɪnˈstrʌkt]
vt. 指导；通知；命令；教授
结构分析
本句的主干为 Says Korn / Ferry senior partner Dennis Carey，引号里是直接引语，直接引语的主干是 I can’t think of a single search。定语从句 I’ve done 修饰 search，省略关系代词 which 或者 that。where a board has not instructed me to look at sitting CEOs first 是第二个定语从句。
参考译文
