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
最近几周以来,Google加快了更新和增加搜索服务新内容的速度,它正在努力使自己成为一个准备向投资者出售股份的强大的商业实体,预计Goode首次公开发行的股票将成为近几年来硅谷最畅销的股票。
解析
本句为复合句,句子主干结构是Google has picked up the pace。句中介词短语as part of its effort to position itself…作句子状语;形容词短语ready to sell shares to investors…作定语,修饰business;what is expected to be the most popular initial public offering by a Silicon Valley company in years是介词in的宾语从句。本句句子很长,应采取分译法,将句子做断句处理。将句中状语as part of its effort to position itself as…by a Silicon Valley company in years进行拆分,变成与主句并列的完整语句,这样译文比较流畅。
