First of all, if we want to st

19、ay competitive, we need to modernize our factory. New equipment should have been installed long ago because some equipment is over used or out of date, which seriously affect the efficiency of our production. Ive enquired about the cost of the changes of the equipment. There are several options rang

20、ing from one hundred thousand dollars all the way up to half a million. Well have to discuss these costs with treasurers department. We should also consider human resources. Ive been talking to personnel as well as our staff at the factory. The problem is lots of administrative feel overloaded, and

21、most staff complain about the poor working conditions. So well probably have to hire a couple of engineers to help us modernize the factory and improve the working conditions.

22、 us, we wont advertise in the papers as usual. To be frank, its just not enough anymore. We need to be more aggressive in order to keep ahead of our competitors.

I was optimistic about the first company because ofA.the hospitality by the manager.B.the commercial expertise of the manager.C.the quantities they can produce.答案:C解析 23-30M: As you know, th

25、e main supplier of our company announced suddenly last month that they were closing down shortly, leaving us in a very difficult situation. I short listed four potential replacement suppliers, and have visited them all. Ill report on each, though Ive only found one company that meets our needs entir

26、ely. Initially, I was optimistic about the first company I saw. I was given an enthusiastic welcome and generous hospitality by the manager, but when he took me on a tour of the factory, I began to have a few doubts about his commercial expertise. The factory is enormous, I think, almost too big to

27、be practical. There is certainly enough machinery to produce the quantities we need, and that, of course, is vital. However, I had one main concern. Half the factory wasnt in use because several important customers had cancelled orders. I was reassured that orders are dispatched quickly, and deliver

28、y times are impressive, and distribution isnt a problem, but Id need to inspect their products more closely to see if the qualitys what we require. The second company looked promising too, because they are based in the region that produces the natural resources to make our products. Everything neede

29、d for their activities is available on their doorstep. They have a good working relationship with the local mine owners, who are known to have good safety records. During my visit, the company went into great detail about the quality inspections carried out on the material before it leaves the mines

30、. This company seemed to have no problems with transport until I looked more closely. The factory is in a very mountainous region, about six hundred kilometers from the capital city. The roads are really inadequate, the journey by road can take days. We cant risk depending on such poor transportatio

31、n. The third company I looked at, on the other hand, is on the coast, with good access to the main seaport. Transport and shipping of goods are well organized. The production unit is newly-built and equipped with the help of investment from the Ministry of Industry. Whats more, company workers are i

32、nvolved in decision-making, and industrial relations are excellent. Perfect so far. Unfortunately, though, their finished products are not of the quality we demand. When I did a quick inspection, I found a higher percentage of faults than wed be prepared to tolerate. The final company I visited seem

33、ed to have everything, though. Its ten years old, well established, located between the capital and a major seaport. The company has grown rapidly and has just modernized its factory with the most up-to-date equipment available on the market. The production unit is now fully automated, and efficienc

34、y is the companys great strength. This company has a good reputation for the quality of its finished goods. Im confident well be able to negotiate on this. The key point is their ability to meet deadlines of a long-term contract. Its easy to meet one deadline, of course, the difficult thing is to do

35、 it all the time. 第一家公司的優(yōu)勢(shì)在于生產(chǎn)能力“The factory is enormous.enough machinery to produce the quantities we need.”選項(xiàng)B是令人懷疑的，如原文“have a few doubts about his commercial expertise”.2.
