题目：
At its annual stockholders meeting this week, Smith & Co. reported that
its yearly earnings had tripled from a year ago to $100 million. The
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
earnings increase was attributed in large part to the increase in sales
resulting from the rise in popularity of designer fashions for children. Sales predictions for the coming year project that earnings will
double during the first two quarters.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
疑问：
its yearly earnings had tripled from a year ago to $100 million.
---这句的意思是什麽?
yearly earnings每年的盈余,为什麽会有过去完成式的出现(had tripled
from a year ago)
3倍是指100 million的3倍 还是100 million是3倍?
the first two quarters.--什麽是第一季2 1/4?
