4 Susan Grant is in something of a dilemma. She has been invited to join the board of the troubled Marlow Fashion
Group as a non-executive director, but is uncertain as to the level and nature of her contribution to the strategic
thinking of the Group.
The Marlow Fashion Group had been set up by a husband and wife team in the 1970s in an economically depressed
part of the UK. They produced a comprehensive range of women’s clothing built round the theme of traditional English
style. and elegance. The Group had the necessary skills to design, manufacture and retail its product range. The
Marlow brand was quickly established and the company built up a loyal network of suppliers, workers in the company
factory and franchised retailers spread around the world. Marlow Fashion Group’s products were able to command
premium prices in the world of fashion. Rodney and Betty Marlow ensured that their commitment to traditional values
created a strong family atmosphere in its network of partners and were reluctant to change this.
Unfortunately, changes in the market for women’s wear presented a major threat to Marlow Fashion. Firstly, women
had become a much more active part of the workforce and demanded smarter, more functional outfits to wear at work.
Marlow Fashion’s emphasis on soft, feminine styles became increasingly dated. Secondly, the tight control exercised
by Betty and Rodney Marlow and their commitment to control of design, manufacturing and retailing left them
vulnerable to competitors who focused on just one of these core activities. Thirdly, there was a reluctance by the
Marlows and their management team to acknowledge that a significant fall in sales and profits were as a result of a
fundamental shift in demand for women’s clothing. Finally, the share price of the company fell dramatically. Betty and
Rodney Marlow retained a significant minority ownership stake, but the company had had a new Chief Executive
Officer every year since 2000.
Required:
(a) Write a short report to Susan Grant identifying and explaining the strategic strengths and weaknesses in the
Marlow Fashion Group. (12 marks)

Passage Four
It seems that beauty and women are twins. Observe for yourself. Ads on fashion flood TV screen, radio programs, magazines and the streets. Whether they have realized or not, women are besieged (包围) by a sea of fashion. They are taught to think that without beautiful clothes they will grow old and lose their charm. So who dares to neglect dressing up at the cost of their appearance and youth?
But I do not agree with the opinion that women have to show their beauty through their looks. The richness of their mind proves to be more beautiful and attractive than their looks. A woman who has experienced many troubles and may be called "aunt" or "granny" can still maintain her beauty if she has such excellent qualities as knowledge, ability, a kind heart and concern for others.
In addition, old and young, beautiful and ugly are relative concepts. People who keep a young mind will never feel old. Curious about new things and eager to learn more, they keep up with the tide. Plainly dressed women may have a type of beauty, which is pure and real.
Reading and learning is the best way to keep one youthful. Good books are fertile soil which can feed the flower of one's heart and looks.
46. Why does the author say that beauty and women are twins?
A. Women are born to be beauties.
B. Women like to show off their beauties
C. Women are proud of their beauty
D. Women try to maintain their beauty by dressing up
46．答案为D 根据第一段可排除其他三个选项，女人需要时装让自己保持美丽，与美丽是同时存在的。
