周二，记者方可成在一篇文章中写道，百度将其百家号服务平台的低质内容和其它百度产品（的内容）在搜索结果中置顶了。百家号选取的文章来自过时的传统媒体或是自媒体，它们被展示在百度自家的网页上。
除了信息来源，这句话的主干结构是 Baidu was placing A and B towards the top of its search results. 百度将 A he B 在其搜索结果中置顶了，A 指的是 low-quality pieces from its Baijiahao service, 后面的 which 从句是对“百家号”的解释，B 指的是 other Baidu properties。
The complaint comes after Baidu, often compared to Alphabet Inc's Google, underwent a restructuring and rigorous cleanup of illegal medical advertising that emerged in 2016 and led to regulation that slashed the number of eligible advertisers.
百度经常被拿来和 Alphabet 公司旗下的谷歌作比较。在此次投诉事件之前，百度曾于 2016 年对出现的非法医疗广告进行过一次调整和严格的清理，随后制定的监管规则大幅削减了合格广告商的数量。
这句话的由两个句子组成，中间用 after 连接。第一个句子是 The complaint comes. 第二个句子则比较长，它的主语是 Baidu, 后面 often compared to Alphabet Inc's Google 是插入语。第二个句子的主干部分中，underwent a restructuring and rigorous cleanup 作为句子的谓语和宾语，这一点没有争议。of illegal medical advertising 修饰 cleanup, that emerged in 2016 是医疗广告的定语从句，这些也很好理解。模棱两可读的地方在于，是谁 led to regulation. 第一种理解是，Baidu underwent a restructuring and cleanup and led to regulation. 这样语法和语义上都是可以接受的，只是公司本身 lead to sth.，这个说法比较少见。 第二种理解是，illegal medical advertising led to regulation. 这样的话，作为从句中由 and 连接的第二个谓语动词，前面应该加上 that。句子就会写成：illegal medical advertising that emerged in 2016 and that led to regulation. 这两种理解的分歧就在于导致监管的主语是谁，老师倾向于认为是非法医疗广告导致了监管，也就是第二种理解。文章作者在这里写的句子，语法上并不是非常严谨。
Shares of U.S.-listed Baidu tumbled 6.4 percent on Tuesday, or about $4 billion by value, weighed down by earnings and target price downgrades from Citi and Jefferies, while the widespread sharing of Fang's article sparked concerns over its advertising practices.
周四，受到花旗银行和杰富瑞投行的收益和目标价格下调的压力，美国上市的百度股价暴跌了 6.4%，或者说蒸发了约 40 亿美元。与此同时，方可成的文章得到广泛转发，引起了人们对百度广告业务的担忧。
这句话的主干是 Shares of U.S.-listed Baidu tumbled while the widespread sharing of Fang's article sparked concerns. 中间的 weighed down by earnings and target price downgrades from Citi and Jefferies 补充说明美股百度大跌的原因。 学习资源 方可成——我为什么要写《搜索引擎百度已死》？： https://www.bilibili.com/video/av41533916?from=search&seid=16827552685375181822 推荐的查音标网站：Oxford Learner's Dictionaries （牛津学习者词典） https://www. 名言金句 青玉案·元夕 （南宋）辛弃疾 东风夜放花千树，更吹落，星如雨。宝马雕车香满路。凤箫声动，玉壶光转，一夜鱼龙舞。 蛾儿雪柳黄金缕，笑语盈盈暗香去。众里寻他千百度，蓦然回首，那人却在，灯火阑珊处。 补充文化知识 U.S.-listed 表示百度上市的地点是在美国，对应的股票是美股，同样，在香港上市的股票，港股，就是 Hong Kong listed；在上海上市的股票，沪股，就是 Shanghai-listed。 一句话总结新闻 本期《路透社》讲述了这样一件事：自媒体人方可成针对百度搜索发布了一篇投诉文，投诉百度把自家产品的文章（特别是“百家号”）在搜索结果中置顶，百度对此发表了声明，而针对市场波动，百度没有给予任何评论。
