3. 省略
例：The Japanese have their electronics, the Germans their engineering. But when it comes to command of global markets, the U.S. owns the service sector.
日本人占有电器市场，德国人占有工程市场。但谈及全球市场的占有量时，美国拥有服务市场。
第一句the Germans后面省略了have一词。
例：Meanwhile, pressure has been growing from the car companies. GM ships about 60% of its cars and trucks with Ryder, while Chrysler ships some 40%.
与此同时，汽车公司方面的压力在不断增大。通用公司60%的轿车和卡车由莱德公司拖运，而克莱斯勒公司也需该公司拖运其40%的车辆。
最后一句结尾some 40% 后面省略了of its cars and trucks.
4. 连接词
介词和副词常在句子和段落间起衔接作用，把句子和段落间的意思连贯地表述出来。西方经贸报刊中用于承上启下的连接词可表示对比，如：but, however, whereas等;表示原因，如：since, because, due to等;表示结果，如：with;表示目的，如：so that, in order to等;表示时间发展的先后顺序，如：first, second, next, then等，以及表示情况的内在联系，如：and, as well as, in the case等。来源：考试大
例：Still, August’s strong output gains don’t look sustainable.
First of all, current modest demand growth will not support any more increase that large. Second, now that manufacturers have worked to get their inventories lower, they will be cautious about adding goods in coming months.
而8月份强劲的生产量增长趋势不会持续下去。
首先，目前较小的需求增长不需要如此大的生产增长额。此外，既然生产企业已经设法去压低其库存量，所以他们对今后几个月增加生产一事持谨慎态度。
