An operating system is a master control program, permanently stored in memory, that interprets user commands requesting various kind of service, such as display, print, or copy a data file, list all files in a directory, or execute a particular program. 译文：操作系统是主控程序，永久地驻留在内存中，它理解用户的各种指令：如显示、打印文件，将目录中所有文件列表，或者执行一个特殊的程序。 (比较：操作系统是永久地驻留在内存中的；理解用户的各种指令：如显示、打印文件，将目录中所有文件列表，或者执行一个特殊的程序主控程序。) 复杂定语(从句)的翻译技巧之二 例2. The users of such a system control the process by means of a program, which is a set of instruction that specify the operation, operands, and the sequence by which processing has to occur. 译文：该系统用户通过程序控制处理过程，所谓程序是一套指定操作、操作数和处理序列的指令集。(比较：该系统用户通过一套指定操作、操作数和处理序列的指令集即程序控制处理过程。) 例3. Indeed, todays products -- most of all, the latest in speech recognition – are a roll-out of technologies that have been percolating for years and that are based on an understanding of speech that has taken several decades to accumulate. 译文：的确，今日的产品，尤其是语音识别方面最新的产品，是过去多年技术渗透的延伸，也是基于几十年来对语音理解的结果。 (比较：的确，今日的产品，尤其是语音识别方面最新的产品，是过去多年的渗透和基于几十年来对语音理解的积累的技术延伸。) 例4. The computer family, in computer science, is a term commonly used to indicate a group of computers that are built around the same microprocessor or around a series of related microprocessors, and that share significant design feature. 译文：在计算机科学中，计算机系列是常用的一个术语，通常指一组用相同的或者一系列相关的微
