TextARM Holdings PLC [(LSE: ARM); (Nasdaq: ARMHY)], ranked by Dataquest as the number one semiconductor IP supplier in the world, emerged as a pre-eminent force in the semiconductor revolution [1].[1].被Dataquest排列为全世界第一的半导体IP核提供 商的ARM上市公司在半导体革命中显示出了一种卓越 的力量。 r a n k e d b y D a t a qu e s t a s t he n u m b e r o n e semiconductor IP supplier in the world是主语ARM 3 Holdings plc的定语，对主语进行说明和描述。

《电子信息工程专业英语导论》

When ARM pioneered the concept of openly-licensable IP for the development of 32-bit RISC microprocessor-based SoCs in the early 1990s, it changed the dynamics of the semiconductor industry forever. By licensing, rather than manufacturing and selling its chip technology, the Company established a new business model that has redefined the way microprocessors are designed, produced and sold [2]. 4

[2].通过许可，而不是制造和出售它的芯片技术， 公司重新定义了微处理器设计、生产与销售的方 式，从而建立了一种新的商业模型。

By licensing, rather than manufacturing andselling its chip technology是状语，可译为 More importantly, ARM has shaped a new era of next-generation electronics: ARM Powered® microprocessors are pervasive in the electronic products we 5 use,

“通过许可，而不是制造和出售它的芯片技术”。

driving key functions in a variety of applications in perse markets, including automotive, consumer entertainment, imaging, industrial control, networking, storage, security and wireless. ARM licenses its IP to a network of Partners, which includes some of the world’s leading semiconductor and system companies, including nineteen out of the top-twenty semiconductor vendors worldwide. 6

《电子信息工程专业英语导论》

These Partners utilize ARM’s low-cost, power-efficient core designs to create and manufacture microprocessors, peripherals and SoC solutions. As the foundation of the company’s global technology network, these Partners have played a pivotal role in the widespread adoption of the ARM architecture and to date; ARM Partners have shipped more than one billion ARM microprocessor cores. 7

《电子信息工程专业英语导论》

To support and complement the company’s RISC microprocessor cores and SoC IP, ARM has developed a strong software capability. Partners have access to an unrivaled range of software-based IP, operating systems (OS) ports and software design services. In this way, ARM provides Partners with a full portfolio of offerings that deliver significant risk reduction and

faster time-to-market benefits [3]. 8

[3].通过这种方式，ARM提供给合作伙伴一整套 旨在降低风险并能快速获取市场利益的投资物。 that deliver significant risk reduction and faster time-to-market benefits是定语，修饰a full portfolio of offerings。

In order to support this global technology network, ARM has recently introduced two significant technology advancements that are already in use by key semiconductor companies.9

《电子信息工程专业英语导论》

The company is now offering itsPartners the ARM PrimeXsys platform; ‘box-ready’ IP in the form of platforms targeted at specific applications [4]. [4].公司现在为合作伙伴提供ARM PrimeXsys 平台；封装好的IP以平台形 式解决特殊应用的需要。10

《电子信息工程专业英语导论》

The first PrimeXsys platform launched in September 2001 was the PrimeXys Wireless Platform. This is a highlyintegrated, extendable platform incorporating all the hardware, software and integration tools necessary to enable ARM Partners to easily develop a wide range of ARM Powered applicationfocused devices, rapidly and with minimal risk. ARM intends to announce further PrimeXsys platforms in 2002 as the IP market continues to demand more 11 integrated solutions.

ARM also introduced the Jazelle technology for accelerating Java technology that delivers an unparalleled

combination of Java performance andthe world’s leading 32-bit embedded

RISC architecture [5].[5]. ARM为加速Java 技术提出了Jazelle 技

术，这样就可以将JAVA的优越性能引入世界范围内最重要的32位的嵌入式RISC结构中。12

《电子信息工程专业英语导论》

This technology gives platform developers the freedom to run Java applications alongside established OS,

middleware and application code on asingle processor. The single-processor

solution offers higher performance,lower system cost and lower power than

coprocessors and dual-processorsolutions.13

数的表示与读法 数的读法表示数目多少的数字叫做基数。如0(zero)、1 (one)、19(nineteen)、20(twenty)等。其读 法有一些基本规则： (1)21~99的基数，先说“几十”,再说“几”, 中间加连字号。如24 (twenty-three).

(2)101~999的基数，先说“几百”,再加and, 再加末位数。如156(a/one hundred and fifty-six); 但也有不用and的情况，如850可以读作 eight hundred fifty.14

《电子信息工程专业英语导论》

(3)1,000以上的数，先从后向前数，每三位数加 一“,”第一个“,”前为thousand,第二个“,” 前为million,第三个“,”前为billion(美式)或 thousand million(英式)。如 1,001 284,304 20,654,693 one thousand and one two hundred and eighty-four
