句子解析:
第一句:
Walmart is taking on Amazon Prime with its own subscription program, one that will offer free deliveries and discounted gas to members, as the nation’s largest retailer attempts to win over homebound consumers during the pandemic.
参考译文:沃尔玛拟通过自己的订阅计划向亚马逊Prime发起挑战;该计划将为会员提供免运费和燃气打折,因为这家美国最大的零售商试图在疫情期间赢得本土消费者。
第二句:
Walmart Plus rolls out Sept. 15 and is the retailer’s most pointed effort to compete with Amazon’s wildly popular Prime program, which has grown to more than 100 million members since it was launched in 2005.
参考译文:沃尔玛Plus将于9月15日正式推出,这是该零售商针对亚马逊广受欢迎的Prime计划最尖锐的尝试,Prime自2005年推出以来已发展了1亿多名会员。
思考题解析:
Walmart will launch a subscription program to__.
沃尔玛将会发动一个订阅计划来_____
A. promote its gas stations services for members
没有燃气站服务这是一个拼凑!
B. confront the rival’s growing marketing program
记住rival 就是亚马逊!
会员项目=营销项目
这就是正确选项!
C. deter the largest retailer’s subscription program
deter阻碍!
记住:沃尔玛就是the largest retailer
所以不存在阻止自己的订阅计划。
当然你认为亚马逊是最大的零售商,就是对文章指代关系的误解了。
一定要找到名词的指代!
加了定冠词the 就是对前面名词的呼应!
如果这里的最大的零售商指的是亚马逊那就应该在文章中明确说明是亚马逊。
这个方式写,那就是沃尔玛!
比如:
1.The Facebook …
2.The largest online advertiser…
脸书=最大的在线广告商
加了定冠词the就是对前面名词的呼应。
如果这里的最大的在线广告商指的不是脸书,作者就应该加一个同位语告诉读者这个最大的在线广告商是谁?
D. compete with Amazon’s gas station member service
文章来源和背景:
Walmart’s answer to Amazon Prime is cheaper and has gas discounts
沃尔玛对亚马逊Prime的应答是:更便宜,还有燃气折扣
Source: https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2020/09/01/walmart-plus-amazon-prime/
背景:亚马逊的Prime服务是目前市场上最成功的收费会员制度之一,会员通过定期缴费享受购物过程中的增值服务,比如专属折扣、免运费、试听音乐等权利。最近,沃尔玛宣布将推出类似的在线会员服务Walmart+,成为第一个向亚马逊的线上霸主地位挑战的零售商。沃尔玛这项新服务的总体竞争策略是更便宜的价格、4700家店辅无限制包邮,以及每加仑减5美分的燃气折扣。但是亚马逊在过去15年间在全球积累1.5亿Prime会员的优势地位并不那么容易被动摇,比如沃尔玛宣布将有16万件商品可享受无限制包邮服务,而亚马逊去年有超过1000万件商品符合一日达的条件。
