2022 국가직 9급 독해문제 지문구조 질문드립니다.

If someone makes you an offer and you’re legitimat

ely concerned about parts of it, you’re usually bette

r off proposing all your changes at once. Don’t say,

“The salary is a bit low. Could you do something ab

out it?” and then, once she’s worked on it, come ba

ck with “Thanks. Now here are two other things I’d l

ike…” If you ask for only one thing initially, she may

assume that getting it will make you ready to acce

pt the offer (or at least to make a decision). If you k

eep saying “and one more thing…,” she is unlikely t

o remain in a generous or understanding mood. Fur

thermore, if you have more than one request, don’t

simply mention all the things you want—A, B, C, an

d D; also signal the relative importance of each to y

ou. Otherwise, she may pick the two things you valu

e least, because they’re pretty easy to give you, and

feel she’s met you halfway.

d D; also signal the relative importance of each to you.

이부분이 not only a but also b = not simply a but also b 이렇게 보아서 a뿐만 아니라 b도 이렇게 해석을 했는데 그렇게 되는게 아니더라고요.

not only a but also b = not simply a but also b 이렇게 보면 안되는건가요??

자세하게 설명해주시면 감사하겠습니다.

안녕하세요 ^^

정확히 알고 있는 것으로 보입니다.
다만 <해석>할 때 약간만 주의하시면 됩니다.

not only A but also B
= not simply A but also B

He is not only rich, but clever.
= He is not simply rich, but clever.
그는 단순히 (그저) 부유한 것만은 아니며, 또한 영리합니다.

don’t simply mention all the things you want.
단순히(그저) 당신이 원하는 모든 것을 말하지만 말고,
(but) also signal the relative importance of each to you.
또한 당신에게 있어 각각의 상대적 중요성을 표시해라.

늘 힘차게
홧팅하세요 !!
