第267句：

Their breakthrough, simply put, was that when their search engine crawled the Web, it did more than just look for word matches; it also tallied (統(tǒng)計(jì)) and ranked a host of other critical factors like how websiites link to one another.

他們的突破，簡(jiǎn)單地說(shuō)，就是當(dāng)用他們的搜索引擎在網(wǎng)頁(yè)上搜索時(shí)，它并不單單是尋找匹配的詞條，也對(duì)其他許多重要因素，例如網(wǎng)站如何彼此鏈接等進(jìn)行統(tǒng)計(jì)和排名。

六級(jí)詞匯講解:

本句的主干是Their breakthrough...was that...。simply put為插入語(yǔ)。其中，that when their search engine...為表語(yǔ)從句，該從句中又包含when引導(dǎo)的時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句，it did more than just...和it also tallied...則為該表語(yǔ)從句的并列主干。
simply put意為“簡(jiǎn)單而言，簡(jiǎn)而言之”，相當(dāng)于simply speaking。如：
Simply speaking／Simply put,I hope you can take over this new project.
簡(jiǎn)單而言，我希望你能接手這個(gè)新項(xiàng)目。
crawl在句中可理解為“進(jìn)行搜索”，其本義為“爬，緩緩爬行”。如：
A group ofprisoners crawled through a secret hole and escaped.
一群犯人匍匐通過(guò)一個(gè)秘洞之后逃走了。
a host of意為“許多，一大群”。如：
The country is faced with a host of compelling economic problems.
該國(guó)正面臨許多引人注目的經(jīng)濟(jì)問(wèn)題。
