　　理工類-閱讀判斷　

　Microchip Research Center Created

　　A research center has been set up in this Far Eastern country to develop advanced micro-chip production technology. The center, which will start out with about US $14 million, will help the country develop its chip industry without always depending on imported technology.

　　The center will make use of its research skills and facilities to develop new technology for domestic chip plants. The advent of the center will possibly free the country from the situation that it is always buying almost-outdated technologies from other countries, said the country’s flagship chipmaker.1 Currently, chip plants in this country are in a passive situation because many foreign governments don’t allow them to import the most advanced technologies, fearing they will be used for military purposes. Moreover, the high licensing fees they have to pay to technology providers are also an important reason for their decision of self-reliance2.

　　As mainstream chip production technology shifts from one generation to the next every three to five years3,plants with new technology can make more powerful chips at lower costs, while4 plants with outdated equipment, which often cost billions of dollars to build, will be marginalized by the maker.

　　More than 10 chip plants are being built, each costing millions of US dollars.5 The majority of that money goes to overseas equipment vendors and technology owners ― mainly from Japan and Singapore.

　　Should the new center play a major role in improving the situation in the industry,6 the country admits the US $14 million investment is still rather small. This country is developing comprehensive technologies. Most of the investment will be spent on setting alliances with technology and intellectual property7 owners.

　　詞匯：

　　microchip微芯片 flagship 首位，最好

　　mainstream 主流 marginalize 忽視，邊緣化

　　vendor 賣(mài)主

　　注釋：

　　1.The advent of the center will possibly free the country from the situation that it is always buying almost-outdated technologies from other countries, said the country’s flagship chipmaker：這個(gè)國(guó)家名列首位的芯片制造公司說(shuō)，芯片中心的成立可能使這個(gè)國(guó)家擺脫從他國(guó)購(gòu)買(mǎi)即將淘汰的技術(shù)的困境。

　　(1)free ... from ... ：把……從……解放出來(lái)

　　(2)situation that = situation in which

　　(3)said the country’s flagship chipmaker：把“誰(shuí)說(shuō)的”放在句末，是為了突出“The advent ... other countries”所表達(dá)的事實(shí)。注意放在句末時(shí)用的是倒裝句：said the country’s flagship chipmaker。

　　2.self-reliance：自力更生

　　3.every three to five years：每隔3～5年

　　4.while：而(表示對(duì)比)

　　5.More than 10 chip plants are being built, each costing millions of US dollars：十幾個(gè)芯片廠正在建設(shè)之中，每一個(gè)廠的造價(jià)都在幾百萬(wàn)美元。

　　each costing millions of US dollars是獨(dú)立分詞結(jié)構(gòu)，用作狀語(yǔ)，進(jìn)一步說(shuō)明情況。

　　6.Should the new center play a major role in improving the situation in the industry：如果新建的芯片中心能在改善該國(guó)在芯片行業(yè)的(被動(dòng))形勢(shì)中起重要作用……

　　Should…in the industry是虛擬條件句，也可寫(xiě)成If the new center should play a major role in improving the situation in the industry ...

　　7.intellectual property：知識(shí)產(chǎn)權(quán)

　　練習(xí)：

　　1.The country says that the investment of US $14 million is big enough for developing that country’s chip industry.
