"Google is not a conventional company. We do not【C1】______to become one," wrote Larry Page and Sergey Brin, the search firm’s founders, in a letter to investors ahead of its stockmarket flotation in 2004. Since then, Google has burnished its reputation【C2】______one of the quirkiest companies on the planet. This year alone it has【C3】______eyebrows by taking a stake in a wind-energy project off the east coast of America and by testing self-driving cars, which have already【C4】______over 140,000 miles (225,000km) on the country’s roads.
Google has been able to【C5】______such flights of fancy【C6】______its amazingly successful online-search business. This has【C7】______handsome returns for the firm’s investors, who have seen the company【C8】______itself in the space of a mere 12 years from a tiny start-up into a behemoth with a $180 billion market capitalisation that sprawls【C9】______a vast headquarters in Silicon Valley known as the Googleplex. Google【C10】______stretches across the web like a giant spider, with a leg in everything from online search and e-mail to social networking and web-based software applications, or apps.
All this has turned Google into a force to be reckoned with.【C11】______now the champion of the unorthodox is faced with two conventional business challenges. The first【C12】______placating regulators, who fret that it may be abusing its considerable【C13】______. On November 30th the European Union【C14】______a formal investigation into claims that Google has been【C15】______search results to give an unfair advantage to its own services—a charge the firm vigorously【C16】______. The other challenge facing Google is how to find new sources of growth.【C17】______all the experiments it has launched, the firm is still heavily dependent on search-related advertising.
Ironically, investors’ biggest worry is that Google will end【C18】______like Microsoft, which has【C19】______to find big new sources of【C20】______and profit to replace those from its two ageing ponies, the Windows operating system and the Office suite of business software. That explains why Google’s share price has stagnated.
【C18】
选项
A、at
B、with
C、up
D、off
答案
C
解析
介词辨析题。结合句子意思“投资者最大的担忧在于,谷歌最终会落得跟微软一样的处境”,(end)up更符合句子的表达,故C项为正确选项。
