  英语四-级译文:
  尽管公司招新人时倾向于聘用专才,但是总是选用通才来担任中高层管理工作。
  四-级词汇讲解:
  本句的主干是they often seek out generalists。although引导让步状语从句。
  take on意为“承担;承受”。如:

  specialist本义为“专家”。如:

  seek out意为“找出;挑出”。如:
  How can we seek out a really good person for the job?我们怎样才能挑出真正合适的人选来做这项工作?
  在本句中,specialist与后文提到的generalist相对,分别表示“专才”和“通才”。
