For
27、the AMAT, we expect to reach sales of 250,000 this is roughly the same figure as last year and it may be a little pessimistic, as we are going to do a large-scale promotion campaign during the year so perhaps we will achieve something like 300,000. Still I prefer to keep the forecast at 250,000. Now
28、, we come to the BMAT. Here sales should reach 450,000. This could be a little optimistic as we are net going to push this product in 1998. In any case, the total will probably balance out with the more conservative forecast for the AM AT. The CMAT, our most recent product, will continue to do well.
29、 Sales may go as high as 600,000. However, I have set the target slightly lower at 550,000. OK, lets turn to our medium-term plans. At the beginning of 1998 we are going to launch our new product the DMAT and we are sure sales will take off very quickly. We estimate first year sales at 200,000. The
30、DMAT should initially complement the AMAT and eventually replace it in the nineties. Finally, R & D are working hard on a medium range product they hope to have it ready by 1999 so we could launch it in 2000. 23 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 原文中 “For the AMAT, we expect to reach sales of 250,000“ . 24 【正确答案】 B 【试
31、题解析】 this is roughly the same figure as last year, “the same.as.“. 同 一样。 25 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 we are going to do a large-scale promotion campaign during the year. 26 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 第二段中提到 BMAT, “Hare sales should reach 450,000“。 27 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 CMAT“sales may goes high as 600,000“0 28 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 AMAT是 250,000, BMAT是 450,000, CMAT是 600,000, 所以CMAT最高。 29 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 1998年初要开发新产品 DMAT。 30 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 文中用了将来时,说明 DMAT还没有投入市场。
