很多同學(xué)都很關(guān)注雅思閱讀精讀 | Big tech’s $2trn bull run這個問題，那么接下來就跟著中國教育在線小編一起來看看吧，相信你通過以下的文章內(nèi)容就會有更深入的了解。

Big techs $2trnbullrun

Investors think the techlash is over. That judgment is premature

很多人也許會覺得為什么是bull？

那是因?yàn)榉饷嬷芯秃芏嗟墓?；其次，美國的金融街的代表：華爾街的那頭銅牛，所以它用bull 代表資本

資本追逐著什么呢？

你可以從封面圖中每頭公牛腦門上的標(biāo)志上+big tech，首先是 Microsoft微軟的標(biāo)志；

后面2頭公牛分別代表 Apple蘋果和 Amazon亞馬遜，最后的2頭代表Google 和Facebook。

所以：

big tech 代表的就是美國科技巨頭們

$2trn bull run 代表2萬億資本追逐

詞匯：

Trn=trillion =萬億

Techlash =對科技巨頭的批判與抵制

Techlash =tech+lash tech是technology的縮寫，lash本意鞭打和批評

例句副標(biāo)題：

Investors think the techlash is over. That judgment is premature

投資者認(rèn)為對科技巨頭的批判和抵制已經(jīng)結(jié)束了。這種論斷下的過早。

江鳥大哥分析

第一段總共7句：

【1】In 2018 a new word entered Silicon Valleys lexicon: the tech

lash, or the risk of a consumer and regulatory revolt against

big tech.

第一句：解釋了techlash單詞的定義 the risk of a consumer and regulatory revolt againstbig tech 消費(fèi)者和法規(guī)對于科技巨頭的抵制與批判

【2】Today that threat seems empty.

第二句：現(xiàn)在來看這個威脅落空了

【3】Even as regulators discuss new rules and activists fret about the right to privacy, theshares of the five biggest American tech firms have been on a jaw-dropping bull run over the past 12 months, rising by 52%.

詞匯：

fret v 焦急，使磨損

jaw-dropping adj. 令人目瞪口呆的；印象非常深刻的；令人震驚的

[例句]Now playing: the best action in videos,jaw-droppingimages and othermedia.

現(xiàn)在放映：在錄像，令人震驚的圖像和另外的媒介的最好的行動

【4】The increase in the firms combined value, of almost $2trn, is

hard to get your head round: it is roughly equivalent to Ger

manys entire stockmarket.

詞匯：

get your head round=be able to understand something 使得你理解某事

中文理解：這些公司的聯(lián)合市值增加了將近2萬億，你也許對這個數(shù)字沒有概念：2萬億差不多等于德國整個國家的全部股票市值

【5】 Four of the fiveAlphabet, Amazon, Apple and Microsoftare each now worth over $1trn. (Facebook is worth a mere $620bn.)

看到這一句的時候你也許會感到好奇，封面上不是有g(shù)oogle 這一個我們熟知的科技巨頭嗎？為什么在這里列舉出來的5項(xiàng)，并沒有Google？

江鳥大哥科普時間：

Alphabet是谷歌重組后的傘形公司（Umbrella Company）名字，Alphabet采取控股公司結(jié)構(gòu)，把旗下搜索、YouTube、其它網(wǎng)絡(luò)子公司與研發(fā)投資部門分離開來。

Alphabet將取GOOGLEINC成為上市實(shí)體公司，所有谷歌的股票都會自動轉(zhuǎn)換為相同數(shù)量的Alphabet股票，并享有同等權(quán)利。

【6】For all the talk of a techlash, fund managers in Boston, London and Singapore have shrugged and moved on.

詞匯：

shrug v 聳肩（表示冷淡，懷疑等）

【例句】 he dismissed the event with a most unsympathetic shrug.

他無所謂地聳聳肩就把這件事打發(fā)了。

【7】Their calculus is that nothing can stop these firms, which are destined to earn untold riches.

詞匯：

calculus n 微積分。這里their 指的是前一句的主語：fund managers 基金經(jīng)理，所以這里的calculus 應(yīng)該理解成演算

【例句】but the calculus for politicians has suddenly shifted.

但是，政客們的演算突然發(fā)生了轉(zhuǎn)變。

Riches：財(cái)富，富有，房地產(chǎn) （rich 的復(fù)數(shù)）
