  The Making of a Success Story

(1) IKEA is the world's largest furniture retailer, and the man behind it is Ingvar Kamprad, one of the world's most successful entrepreneurs. Born in Sweden in 1926, Kamprad was a natural business man. As a child, he enjoyed selling things and made small profs from selling matches,seeds and pencils in his community. When Kamprad was 17, his father gave him some money as a reward for his good grades. Naturally he used it to start up a business-- IKEA.

(2) IKEA's name comes from Kamprads'initials (I.K.) and the place where he grew up (E and A)y IKEA is known for its modern, minimalist furniture, but it was not a furniture company in the beginning. Rather, IKEA sold all kinds of miscellaneous goods. Kamprad's wares included anything that he could sell for profits at discounted prices, including watches, pens and stockings.

(3) IKEA first began to sell furniture through a mail-order catalogue in 1947. the furniture was all designed and made by manufactures near Kamprad's home. Initial sales were very encouraging, so Kamprad expanded the product line. Furniture was such a successful aspect of the business that IKEA became solely a furniture company in 1951.

(4) In 1953 IKEA opened its first showroom in Almhult, Sweden. IKEA is known today for its spacious stress with furniture in attractive settings, but in the early 1950s, people ordered from catalogues. Thus, response to the first showroom was overwhelming: people loved being able to see and try the furniture before buying it. This led to increased sales and the company continued to thrive. By 1955, IKEA was designing all its own furniture.

(5) In 1956 Kamprad saw a man disassembling a table to make it easier to transport. Kamprad was inspired. The man had given him a great idea: fiat packaging. Flat packaging would mean lower shipping costs for IKEA and lower prices for customers. IKEA tried it and sales soared.

The problem was that people had to assemble furniture themselves, but over time, even this grew into an advantage for IKEA. Nowadays, IKEA is often seen as having connotations of self-sufficiency. This image has done wonders for the company, leading to better sales and continued expansion.

(6) Today there are over 200 stores in 32 countries. Amazingly, Ingvar Kamprad has managed to keep IKEA a privately-held company. In 2004 he was named the world's richest man. He currently lives in Switzerland and is retired from the day-today operations of IKEA. IKEA itself, though, just keeps on growing.

  答案与解析:

23.E。文章第三段指出,结论是由杰出的大气科学家得出的。“杰出的科学家”即权威科学家。

24.C。文章第三段提到了对浮质所产生的影响进行的`计算。这个计算先于第四段所提及的计算,因而被称为“先前的”计算。

25.B。文章第四段开头指出,“然而,柏林讨论会得出的结论是,真正的数字比这还要高——浮质可能已经把全球气候变暖的情况减少了3/4。”因此,本段讲的是柏林讨论会的计算。

26.D。第五段讲的是科学家们关于浮质对气候变化影响的一致性的看法。

27.C。文章第一段指出,随着在未来几十年里这种烟雾覆盖物的不断减少,我们会面临惊人的气候变暖的情况,也就是说,覆盖物减少,气温会迅速升高。

28.B。柏林讨论会的结论有点令人吃惊,因为这个结论认为,浮质可能已经把全球气候变暖的情况减少了3/4,这个数字是惊人的。

29.E。文章第四段指出,“然而,柏林讨论会得出的结论是,真正的数字比这还要高。”“比这还要高”是说比第三段推测的数字要高,也就比人们预期的要高。

30.A。文章的最后一段提到了这个问题:这些气体(温室气体)在大气里不断聚积对未来气候变化的预测产生惊人的结果。
