Intel Corp., the world's biggest computer-chip maker, and McDonald's Corp., the world's biggest restaurant chain, are teaming up to market wireless connectivity to the Internet in some McDonald's restaurants, the companies said on Tuesday.
全球最大的计算机芯片制造商英特尔公司和最大的快餐连锁经营者麦当劳公司在星期二宣布，两家公司将联手在几家麦当劳餐厅推广因特网无线接入技术。
★team up （with）, "与...合作"：I teamed up with Jane to do the job. 我与简合作做这个工作。
The effort, starting with 10 McDonald's restaurants in Manhattan, is part of Intel's $300 million campaign to launch its Centrino line of products, designed for laptop computing and high-speed wireless access to the Internet.
这项首先在曼哈顿10家麦当劳快餐厅试行的计划，是英特尔公司用3亿美元资金发布其"迅驰行动"运算平台组件活动的一部分，该运算平台是专为移动平台和高速无线因特网接入而设计的。
★access, "接近、进入、出去或使用的方法、手段或权利"：The only means of access to the building is along a muddy track. 进入这座建筑物的唯一通道是一条泥泞的小路； Students need easy access to books. 要使学生很方便就能借到书； My ex-husband has access to the children at weekends. 我的前夫有权在周末同孩子们在一起。
As part of the program, for the next three months, McDonald's will give customers an hour of wireless Internet access in its restaurants with the purchase of a combination meal.
作为计划的一部分，在今后三个月内，麦当劳将在其快餐店内为购买套餐的顾客提供一小时的无线互联网接入服务。
After that customers will have the option of paying $3 for another hour online or buying another meal.
在规定时间之后，顾客可以选择以一小时3美元的价格付费或者购买另一份套餐来继续享受这一服务。
High-speed wireless Internet access, or Wi-Fi, is spreading rapidly, with "hot spots" popping up in airports, hotels and coffee shops across the United States.
高速无线因特网接入服务，或者称为Wi-Fi，正在全美飞速发展，众多的"热点"雨后春笋般出现在机场、宾馆以及咖啡厅中。
★pop up, "to happen or appear suddenly or unexpectedly（非正式）突然（意外地）出现"：If any problems pop up, just give me a ring. 如果出了什么问题，就给我打电话。pop-up,"能弹起的，有弹起装置的"，a pop-up toaster, 有弹起装置的面包机。pop-up menu在电脑技术中指"弹出菜单"。
