Or they could read Mr. Kirbys report: the substantial buying power of such an agency would strengthen the public prescription drug insurance plans to negotiate the lowest possible purchase prices from drug companies.
【析句】引号之内的成分可以视作为Mr. Kirbys report 的同位语。引号中的成分是一个单句,to negotiate the lowest possible
purchase prices from drug companies 是其目的状语。由于引号中的主语(the substantial buying power of such an agency)太
长,因此在译成汉语时应该考虑译成一个分句。
【讲词】buying power 又叫purchasing power(购买力)。注意negotiate 的用法,to negotiate sth with sb。
