proceeds

在本周四Google上市一周年之际，Google宣布将在公共市场销售1420万的普通股，以募集更多的资本。去年的上市让Google获得了17亿美元的资本，此轮的售股有望让公司获得40多亿美元的资金。目前，Google的股票价格是 285美元每股，与去年的上市价格相比，Google的股票价格已经增长了三倍。外电报道如下： A year after its blockbuster debut as a public company, Google Inc. said Thursday it plans to offer another 14.2 million shares, currently worth about $4 billion, as competition heats up with rivals Yahoo Inc. and Microsoft Corp. The Internet search leader said it will use the proceeds for "general corporate purposes," including possible acquisitions. Google added that it currently has no agreements or commitments to make a material purchase. 文中的Proceeds means the amount of money received from a particular event or activity or when something is sold，表示"收益；收入"。如：The proceeds of today's festival will go to several local charities.（今天活动的收入将捐给当地的几家慈善机构。） （中国日报网站编）
