Google, the dominant Internet search company, is planning to raise the stakes in its intensifying competition with Yahoo and Microsoft by unveiling a new consumer-oriented e-mail service.
The new service, to be named Gmail, is scheduled to be released on April 1, according to people involved with the plan. It will be "soft launched" in a manner that Google has followed with other features that it has added to its Web site, with little fanfare and presented initially as a long-running test.
(46)
E-mail has become a crucial weapon in the competition to win the loyalty of Internet users, who often turn to one or two Web sites as the foundation for their online activities.
(47)
MSN, from Microsoft, and Yahoo are preparing to attack Google’s role as the first place most people turn to conduct an Internet search.
Google, which refused to comment on this latest move, is starting far behind Microsoft (34.4 million users, according to the Nielsen Net Ratings), AOL(31.8 million), and Yahoo(39.9 million). But Google, which is based in Mountain View, Calif., is planning to play on its information search strength to compete with the existing services.
(48)
Google will offer consumers better access to searching their own e-mail and could well up-set the industry balance by offering free access to services that previously were available only by paying a monthly subscription fee.
(49)
The standard industry practice is to offer e-mail services, providing only limited storage free and charging higher fees to users who want to preserve a larger number of e-mail messages for capabilities like online storage.
Google, by contrast, is planning a service to be supported by advertising that will permit its users to store very large amounts of mail at no cost.
(50)
In recent weeks, Google has picked up the pace of updating and adding new features to its basic search service, as part of its effort to position itself as a strong business ready to sell shares to investors in what is expected to be the most popular initial public offering by a Silicon Valley company in years.
Google has been closely watched in Silicon Valley and on Wall Street during the last year for any indication about its plans for an initial public stock offering. The company has steadfastly declined to respond to speculation.
选项
答案
该行业一贯的标准是提供电子邮件服务,只提供有限的免费存储空间,用户如果想要像在线存贮器那样保存更大数量的电子邮件信息就要支付更高的费用。
解析
本句是复合句,句子主干结构为The standard industry practice is to offer e-mail services。句中分词短语providing only limited storage free and charging higher fees…是句子状语;who want to preserve a larger number of e-mail messages for capabilities like online storage为定语从句,修饰users。本句句子较长,结构复杂,应该采取分译法,将此定语从句who want to preserve a larger number of e-mail messages for capabilities like online storage转为状语译出"如果想要像在线存贮器那样保存更大数量的电子邮件信息"。句中状语从句直接译出,与主句并列,这样句子变短,符合汉语表达习惯。
