事实细节的找寻和判断。关于此次收购会给联想带给的好处,录音中指出 “Lenovo…will reap benefits of the world’s third most recognized brand—IBM’s brand name is worth US $53. 8 billion…”,由此可知,收购之后,联想将会从世界第三大品牌中获益,因为IBM的品牌价值达538亿美元。因此选项A的内容与录音原文相符。
【录音原文】
  Lenovo Group has agreed to pay US $1, 25 billion for IBM’s personal computer business, lifting China’s largest PC maker to third in global rankings and giving it a globally recognized brand.
  Lenovo will pay US $600 million in cash and US $650 million in stock. Lenovo chief executive Yang Yuanqing said at a press conference in Beijing.
  Lenovo will also assume US $500 million of debt. IBM will hold an 18.9 percent stake in Hong Kong-listed Lenovo after the acquisition, which is expected to be completed in the second quarter. The purchase vaults Lenovo from eighth place among PC makers, giving the company a leg up in a global market now dominated by US manufacturers Dell and Hewlett-Packard.
  “It’s a good move for IBM,” said Jason Maxwell, an analyst at Los Angeles-based TCW Group, which owns IBM shares. “It fits with their decade-old strategy of disinvesting in those areas where they don’t have an advantage.” IBM sold its hard-disk drive business in 2002 after the technology behind the products became widely available and easy to copy, leading to depressed profits. The same thing has happened in PCs as consumers use new items such as mobile phones to access the Internet. IBM, which made its first PC in 1981 and won orders by catering to businesses, retreated from selling its Aptiva PCs to retailers in the US in 1999 and decided to sell over the Internet.
  Lenovo, based in Beijing, will reap benefits of the world’s third most recognized brand—IBM’s brand name is worth US $53, 8 billion, according to a survey by Interbrand.

第10题:

资料:When a consumer finds that an item she or he bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to the manufacturer's claims, the first step is to present the warranty, or any other records which might help. at the store of purchase. In most cases,this action will produce results. However, if it does not, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the “higher up” his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer's favor, assuming he or she has a just claim.
Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of purchase, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.
Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can demonstrate what is wrong with the item in question If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong. rather than by making general statements. For example,“The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear” is better than “This stereo does not work” The store manager may advice the consumer to write to the manufacturer. If so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and firmly as possible. If a polite complaint does not achieve the desired result, the consumer can go to a step further. She or he can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a private or public organization responsible for protecting consumer's rights.

A.The problem will be settled faster.
B.The problem will usually be settled in the customer s favor.
C.The problem will no longer exist immediately.
D.Both A&B.
