填空题With regard to ______

填空题 ·Read this text taken from a business magazine. ·Choose the best sentence 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. During the 1980s, most U. S. department stores stopped carrying furniture because turnover was too slow and costs were too high. That created an opportunity for smaller, limited-line stores specidlizing in bedding, upholstery, or casual dining.Now the Ikea (pronounced I- KEY-ah) retail chain is, in turn, shaking up these traditional home-furnishings retailers. When Ikea opened its first U. S. store in 1985, it had already developed a low-cost, low- service strategy that was successful in Sweden (where it started) and other parts of Europe.{{U}} (9) {{/U}}. It's difficult for small retailers to compete with Ikea's low prices or the 12,000-item selection it offers in each of its 200,000-square-foot stores.{{U}} (10) {{/U}}.But Ikea uses a clever store layout that helps consumers get information and make purchase decisions without costly help from salespeople. A couch, for instance, is displayed both in a real life setting and in a group with other couches so people can compare and make purchase decisions. A 200-page catalog—mailed to consumers who live within an hour's drive of the store—detail prices and specifications. Shoppers wheel the boxes of assemble-it-yourself furniture to the cash register themselves. The store doesn't offer delivery either.{{U}} (11) {{/U}}Ikea does offer some services. For example, it starts a children's playroom--because parents shop better when they don't have their kids in tow.{{U}} (12) {{/U}}.{{U}} (13) {{/U}}.But because Ikea's sales are so large, it designs its own quality furniture its customers will buy, and then contracts with a producer to make it. This also reduces distribution costs because the furniture is designed in a way it can be shipped disassembled. As an Ikea manager explains, "If we offered more services, out prices would go up. Our customers understand our strategy, which requires each of us to do a little in order to save a lot. They value our low prices." He seems to be correct, and Ikea sales will probably continue to grow as it opens new stores in Europe and the United States. However, Ikea may need to adapt its strategy—including its service level—to consumer differences and evolving competition.{{U}} (14) {{/U}}.Some U. S. consumers, for example, complain that they have to wait in a long Ikea line only to find that a product is not in stock, and that there's no waiting list for the next shipment. A To keep costs low, service is Spartan. B Though successful, it still has room for improvement. C The two most important features of the mass-merchandising format are great variety of merchandise and low cost. D But most consumers can carry the "knock-down" furniture home in car. E Most furniture retailers buy producer's product lines at big wholesale furniture markets. F The same mass-merchandising format is proving very popular with price-conscious consumers in the United States. G And a restaurant at the store offers consumers low-cost meals and a place to think over big purchase decisions. H That created an opportunity for smaller, limited-line stores specidlizing in bedding, upholstery, or casual dining.

填空题With little service productivity growth, the principal way of expanding output has been to add more bodies. Politicians love to take credit (31) an 18.2 million increase in jobs in this decade, (32) in the service businesses firms essentially have been digging the Grand Canyon with millions of people equipped only with picks and shovels—more production but achieved by the brute-force technique of adding bodies, rather (33) by improving efficiency. The opportunities (34) improve service productivity through office automation, better management, etc. are tremendous, even (35) an increase in the skills of the rank and file. The pressure to get that improvement will come from the customers, themselves facing excruciating global competition. A manufacturer can be, doing a bang-up job of raising his own productivity. Furthermore, (36) the globalization of almost everything, service industries from finance (37) airlines are now experiencing direct international competition. And the deregulation of banking, trucking, telecommunications and other service industries has freshened the bracing winds of competition, forcing companies (38) AT ＆ T and U.S. West to slash their workforces to dramatically improve productivity. A speed-up in productivity growth means that fewer additional service workers will be hired (39) non-manufacturing productivity had grown on trend in the last decade, jobs would have been created, and the current unemployment rate would be 13 %, and if overall productivity growth in the next ten years averages 2%, the unemployment rate will still average about 10 %. Wow! So forget about labor shortages in the 1990s. Any slowdown in the labors' supply will be more than compensated (40) by increased use of machinery and computers, and by people working better and smarter.
