If the name Marissa Mayer doesn't sound familiar, Google it-that's probably what she'd want you to do, anyway.

But now Mayer, 37, is trading in (跳槽）her executive title at Google to be the new CEO of Yahoo, it was widely announced on July 16, 2012. Here are four things to know about Yahoo's new leader.

1. She Made History

When she started working for Google in 1999~years before Google became an everyday verb, Mayer was the company's first female engineer. But "Googirl" nickname aside, "I'm not a woman at Google. I'm a geek at Google," Mayer, who was the company's 20^th employee, told CNN in April. "If you can find something that you're really passionate about, whether you're a man or a woman comes a lot less into play.

2.She's Glamorous (富有魅力的）

Add this title to her resume: Woman of the year. In 2009, Mayer was one of the leading ladies highlighted by Glamour magazine in its annual special issue. Photographed in a striking red dress, Mayer said, "When people think about computer science, they imagine people with pocket protectors and thick glasses who code all right. I do code all night!

3.And So Is Her Apartment

If Google is your homepage, you're familiar with its clean-cut style and simple color scheme-just like Mayer's home. "People used to come over to my apartment and say, ‘Does your apartment look like Google or does Google look like your apartment?" She told The New York Times. "I can't say it clearly anymore. I really love color. I'm not very cluttery. My place has very clean simple lines. That has always appealed to me.”

4._______________

Ready to take on yet another important role, Mayer, who married financier Zachary Bogue in 2009, tweeted (写博文）out yet another announcement the same day word broke of her move to Yahoo. "Another piece of good news today-zackbogue and I are expecting a new baby boy in October! I am going to be a mom!"

3.It has very clean simple lines. ( It is very clean and simple.)

【解析】

试题分析：提到Marissa Mayer你可能不熟悉，但是提到Google你肯定知道。现年37 岁的Mayer从Google执行官的位置跳槽去做Yahoo的新任CEO，这件事已经在2012年7月16号公开宣布了。我们要了解Yahoo新领导人的四件事。1. 她创造了历史。2. 她魅力四射。3. 她的公寓也和Google一样。4. 她要做妈妈了。

1.根据Google it横线后面的这句话that's probably what she'd want you to do, anyway.（无论如何，那可能是她想让你做的事。）理解Google it 意思是她想让你：Search for it on the Internet. Google是一种网络搜索引擎，在这里做动词用。

2.根据第二段的But now Mayer, 37, is trading in (跳槽）her executive title at Google to be the new CEO of Yahoo, it was widely announced on July 16, 2012. （但是现在37岁的Mayer在Google是总经理职位正跳槽去做Yahoo的新任CEO，这件事已经在2012年7月16号公开宣布了。）所以Marissa Mayer 现在是为Yahoo工作。

3.根据3. And So Is Her Apartment 中的介绍，Marissa Mayer 的住处线条简洁干净、颜色朴实无华。My place has very clean simple lines.  给出了最直接的回答。

4.根据4. 宣布她从Google到Yahoo任职的同一天，在博文上写到她和她的丈夫将在十月份迎接他们的孩子，她要当妈妈了。在同一天应该就是On July 16, 2012.，她宣布了自己的另一个重要的角色。

5.最后一段的最佳题目应该是Mayer 的另一个重要的角色：她要当妈妈了。
