26. Politicians have repeatedly "backloaded" public-sector pay deals, keeping the pay increases modest but adding to holidays and especially pensions that are already generous.
【分析】复合句。句子主干为 Politicians have..."backloaded" ...deals...。keeping modest...和 adding to...generous 为现在分词短语作伴随状语,由 but 连接构成转折关系。后一个现在分词短语中,that 引导定语从句,修饰 pensions。
【译文】政治家们一再“支持提高”公共部门的工资待遇,虽然压低加薪幅度,却延长了假期,尤其是增加已经很丰厚的养老金。
【点拨】1)modest“适度的”。2)generous“丰厚的”。
