5. As its sales of
computer products have surpassed those of measuring instruments, the company
has become increasingly willing to compete for the mass market sales they
would in the past have concede to rivals.

    

正确选项是
        (E)

    

(E) it would in the past have conceded to
rivals

请问，这里的 it would in the past have conceded to rivals 作句子的什么成分？

    

多谢!

修饰mass market sales：

the mass market sales （that）it would in the past have conceded to rivals

that做定语从句的宾语一定省略

calvin_1124

 As its sales of computer products have surpassed those of measuring instruments怎么翻译？those of measuring instruments... ....  放在那就不清楚整句句子的意思了。。。 。。。

heroelite

如果是做定语从句的宾语，那么it = company

                        

还原之后是：the company have conceded
（the
mass market sales）to rivals.

                        

对么？

那就是说，those = the rivals, 这样就好翻译了，对么？

As its sales of computer products have surpassed those of measuring instruments

因为它（这个公司）在电脑产品的销售量超过了计量仪器的销售量

those指的是sales

amumu

those应该指代its sales。

翻译：

（背景：这个公司主营是测量仪器的销售，副业是计算机产品的销售）

鉴于本公司计算机产品的销售超过了测量仪器的销售，公司开始趋向增强整体电子产品市场的竞争，尽管这个市场之前几乎拱手让给对手。
