The company has also used it to mint money in its financial-services business, GE Capital. No longer (0)______. That added insult to the injury that GE has already suffered. Last year the outfit generated a profit of $8.6 billion or almost 48％ of GE’s total earnings. By exploiting its AAA rating, GE Capital was able to raise capital cheaply and then deploy it to fund everything from commercial-property and home loans to credit-card lending and insurance. (8)______. Announcing its decision to downgrade the business, S&P predicted rising credit losses in coming months in several areas of GE Capital’s portfolio. Although GE’s demotion from AAA was bad news, it triggered a rise in the firm’s shares, which had recently been trading at about the same price as one of the light bulbs that the company makes. (9)______. They may also have taken comfort from the agency’s conclusion that GE’s industrial businesses should continue to pump oodles of cash, in spite of the global downturn. Yet some financial analysts are still fretting that GE Capital’s portfolio may contain more nasty surprises. (10)______. They also wonder out loud whether Moody’s, another rating agency, will take a more pessimistic view of GE’s prospects when it finishes a review of the AAA rating that it still assigns to the firm. Next week GE plans to hold an in-depth briefing on the state of the assets in GE Capital’s portfolio, which will help to dispel the cloud still hanging over the business. It has also been telling anyone who will listen that it doesn’t expect this week’s downgrade to have a significant impact on its business, though it does plan to keep shrinking GE Capital’s activities so that the unit represents no more than 30％ of total profit. (11)______. GE is sitting on $48 billion of cash and has already raised over 90％ of its long-term debt needs for this year—no mean feat in a dire credit market. The company also plans to slash its dividend from the second half of 2009, which it reckons to conserve an additional $9 billion a year on an ongoing basis. (12)______.. In his annual letter to shareholders published recently, Mr. Immelt admitted that GE’S reputation had been “tarnished”. A. This has made some of the company’s small investors apoplectic; they have grown used to juicy dividend payments. B. Jeff Immelt, GE’s CEO, has said that the overall company will continue to manage itself like a AAA-rated firm, notably by keeping plenty of liquidity to hand. C. Resolving lingering doubts over GE Capital quickly will be essential if one of America’s most iconic companies is to regain its shine. D. They point out that the business does not mark many of its assets to their market price—a practice that has blown huge holes in the finances of many big banks. E. No doubt investors were relieved that S&P didn’t make an even deeper cut in the company’s rating. F. But the chaos triggered by the credit crunch has taken the shine off GE’s cash machine, which has seen some of its property and other loans turn sour. G. S&P stripped the company and its financial arm of their top-notch ratings, downgrading them to AA-plus.

问答题Passage 6 ● Read the text below about some of America’s newspapers, which are facing extinction, unless they evolve. ● Choose the best sentence from the opposite page to fill each of the gaps. ● For each gap 9-14, mark one letter(A-H) on your Answer Sheet. ● Do not use any letter more than once. ● There is an example at the beginning (0).On the brink The New York Times was once the best example of all that was great about American newspapers. The Grey Lady’s circulation is tumbling down another 3.9％ according to the latest data from America’s Audit Bureau of Circulations (ABC). (9)______. Pick almost any American newspaper company and you can tell a similar story. The ABC reported that for the 530 biggest daily newspapers, average circulation in the past six months was 3.6％ lower than in the same period a year earlier. As for Sunday papers, it was 4.6％ lower. Ad revenues are plunging across the board: by 22.3％ at Media General, for example. In 2007 total newspaper revenues fell to $42.2 billion. (10)______. Much of this decline is being blamed on the rise of the Internet, which offers free, round-the-clock coverage. What’s more, Internet has provided a new, better home for classified advertising, which was once the source of most newspapers’ revenue. (11)______. The number one cause is the troublesome housing market, which contributes a large slice of classified advertising. Industry experts such as Lucas Rich Fine of Kent State University do not think that the Times is responding forcefully enough. (12)______. Mr. Fine also points out that although all newspapers are being affected by the Internet, their ability to respond will probably depend on whether their audiences are national, metropolitan or local. The first category can afford to invest in distinctive international or business coverage, while the last can prosper by becoming ‘more intensely local’. But he fears that the big metropolitan newspapers may find themselves trapped in the middle. Not all is lost, however. (13)______. For instance, a number of newspapers are becoming ‘information and connection utilities’, through such offerings as local internet forums. The Pocono Record has renamed reporters ‘content managers’, since they oversee all the coverage of their beat, both in print and online, and get a bonus for higher web traffic. The hero for industry optimists is Brian Tierney, a former public-relations executive. Last year, he led a group of investors that borrowed heavily to buy Philadelphia’s two main dailies. (14)______. He is also finding new ways to drum up advertising, such as introducing a business column sponsored by a local bank. A. Certainly, it was not something to be sniffed at, but much less than the peak of $48.7 billion in 2000. B. However, some of the fall in revenues is actually due to the economic slowdown in America. C. Its advertising revenues are down, too, 12.5％ lower in March than a year earlier. D. He has since revived them with a vigorous marketing drive. E. Nevertheless, as a major newspaper, it still boasts a well-educated readership. F. Plenty of innovation is taking place, particularly at local papers. G. ‘Now is the time to beef up its business section’ he says. H. Now it symbolizes the difficult situation the whole industry is faced with.

Invariably this involves role-play based on studies of long-ago triumphs and disasters from a relevant industry or organization. The problem is, any experience of decision-making gained from role-play has one obvious shortcoming: it is not real life. To tackle this dilemma, some of the best-known companies have set up the International Management Development Consortium, which provides a range of executive development programmes for staff members. (9)______. What this means is that they involve “action learning” through real-life situations, and participants work as problem-solving consultants on projects within companies engaged in day-to-day business. (10)______. Within this they also take training and refresher courses in traditional business skills such as finance, marketing, staff management and strategic planning. These disciplines are taught by a mix of academics, business people and senior managers from Consortium companies who also monitor the consultancy work. (11)______. Generally, those who choose to attend the course come from various countries, reflecting the multi-national nature of companies within the Consortium. (12)______. As a result of this cross-cultural exchange, the people on the course learn a great deal from each other—and often keep in contact on a professional level long after the end of their course. The Consortium says language difficulties are not a problem when consultancies are undertaken for foreign companies on site. A translator is on hand to deal with difficulties which arise from technical terms or jargon. (13)______. This is because they are not charged consultancy fees, although a nominal sum is payable for administration. The funding for the scheme is provided by each Consortium member who contributes to the cost of running the training courses, and the amount involved is considerably less than fees charged by leading business schools, (14)______. “it is,” says the Chairman, “a real learning experience with techniques that can easily be used back at work. ” A. They are being offered by companies who are aware of the benefits of the range of knowledge offered by the people on the course. B. As well as the savings, there are also the dividends it pays in the form of improved staff performance. C. The difference between these programmes and the average executive course, however, is that these courses are based on the concept of “live” consultancy. D. In this way, participants can also benchmark themselves against the best members from a range of Consortium companies. E. This means that within every training group there will be a wide variety of experience, which is discussed and explored by the group. F. Typically, groups of up to six course members undertake projects as part of this development programme. G. Another major adHigher is that these companies usually get their problems solved very cheaply. H. Managers are typically cast as key figures in these dramas; the comparisons are made later between how they dealt with the fictional situation and the actual event.

The company has also used it to mint money in its financial-services business, GE Capital. No longer (0)______. That added insult to the injury that GE has already suffered. Last year the outfit generated a profit of $8.6 billion or almost 48％ of GE’s total earnings. By exploiting its AAA rating, GE Capital was able to raise capital cheaply and then deploy it to fund everything from commercial-property and home loans to credit-card lending and insurance. (8)______. Announcing its decision to downgrade the business, SP predicted rising credit losses in coming months in several areas of GE Capital’s portfolio. Although GE’s demotion from AAA was bad news, it triggered a rise in the firm’s shares, which had recently been trading at about the same price as one of the light bulbs that the company makes. (9)______. They may also have taken comfort from the agency’s conclusion that GE’s industrial businesses should continue to pump oodles of cash, in spite of the global downturn. Yet some financial analysts are still fretting that GE Capital’s portfolio may contain more nasty surprises. (10)______. They also wonder out loud whether Moody’s, another rating agency, will take a more pessimistic view of GE’s prospects when it finishes a review of the AAA rating that it still assigns to the firm. Next week GE plans to hold an in-depth briefing on the state of the assets in GE Capital’s portfolio, which will help to dispel the cloud still hanging over the business. It has also been telling anyone who will listen that it doesn’t expect this week’s downgrade to have a significant impact on its business, though it does plan to keep shrinking GE Capital’s activities so that the unit represents no more than 30％ of total profit. (11)______. GE is sitting on $48 billion of cash and has already raised over 90％ of its long-term debt needs for this year—no mean feat in a dire credit market. The company also plans to slash its dividend from the second half of 2009, which it reckons to conserve an additional $9 billion a year on an ongoing basis. (12)______.. In his annual letter to shareholders published recently, Mr. Immelt admitted that GE’S reputation had been “tarnished”. A. This has made some of the company’s small investors apoplectic; they have grown used to juicy dividend payments. B. Jeff Immelt, GE’s CEO, has said that the overall company will continue to manage itself like a AAA-rated firm, notably by keeping plenty of liquidity to hand. C. Resolving lingering doubts over GE Capital quickly will be essential if one of America’s most iconic companies is to regain its shine. D. They point out that the business does not mark many of its assets to their market price—a practice that has blown huge holes in the finances of many big banks. E. No doubt investors were relieved that SP didn’t make an even deeper cut in the company’s rating. F. But the chaos triggered by the credit crunch has taken the shine off GE’s cash machine, which has seen some of its property and other loans turn sour. G. SP stripped the company and its financial arm of their top-notch ratings, downgrading them to AA-plus.
