地位position[英][pəˈzɪʃn] [美][pəˈzɪʃən] 中英文对照：繁琐的文化规范（8） 但是，我只对了一半。当然，姑娘们大约16、17岁，她们要服侍一名40岁的男性用餐。如果我们把情境中性别颠倒一下，变成17岁的男性和40岁的女性。年轻的仍然会充当临时服务员，在用餐中服务年长者。 但是，正如我回想的那样，这个等式中最关键的一点是被服侍就餐的那位男性的社会地位。他是我们组的领队，级别最高的官员。因此，无论这个官员是男是女，出于礼貌，其他人都应该服侍他或者她用餐。 But I was only half right.

But most crucial in this equation, as I recalled it, was the man's social position. He was the leader of our group, the highest-ranking official. So, it didn't matter whether it was a he or she. Other people would take care of his or her plate as a courtesy. 中英文例句 1. This dearth of data places liquid robotics in a truly unique position. 这种数据的匮乏使Liquid Robotics公司处于真正独一无二的地位。 2.
