介绍： A lateral move that hurt my pride and blocked my professional progress promoted me to abandon my relatively high profile career although, in the manner of a disgraced government minister, I covered my exit by claiming "I wanted to spend more time with my family .
译文：一次平级调动伤害了我的自尊，阻碍了我事业的发展，使我不得不放弃了自己相对高调的工作，像一个蒙受屈辱的政府部长那样，我也声称“我只不过是想多和家人待在一起”，以此来掩饰我辞职的原因。
点睛：本句的主干为A…move...promoted me to…，其中定语从句that hurt my pride and blocked my professional progress修饰限定move。主句之后是让步状语从句although...I covered my exit by claiming“l wanted to spend more time with my family”，其中证the manner of a disgraced government minister是插入语。lateral指“横向的”，lateral move指“横向迁移”，这里根据上下文应译为“平级调动”。high profile意为“高姿态，公开的态度，明确的立场”。
One needs to maintain a high profile in his profession.
一个人必须保持在职业上的明确的态度。
而low profile则意为“低姿态，不出头露面，不惹人注意”，类似于low key“低调”。Keep a low profile的意思就是“保持低调”。
He keeps a low profile and doesn't go after headlines.
他保持低调，不让自己成为焦点。
Be efficient while keeping a low profile!
低调做人，高效做事!
