【正确答案】:DAFCE
【答案解析】:
1. 首先要看空句前面有没有关连词,前句有个时间是1968年,也就是Benetton family第一家店的开业时间,与这个时间有关系的就是选项D 对现在情况的描述,Benetton shops in major cities all over the world意思是Benetton的店已经遍布世界各地了。正好形成了对照关系,非常符合文意。
2. 前一句是To build a successful business, you have to develop products around things people value, especially quality.为建立成功的商业,就必须要围绕消费者的价值观,特别是质量。也就是站在消费者的立场上开发产品。与此意思相近的是A正因为如此,Benetton的创办人开始问人们需要什么商品。
3. 前一句是For Benetton, this means waiting to get information about what customers like and what they dislike before making the clothes. Benetton公司来说就是根据顾客的喜好来做衣服,和这个意思相关的就是选项F,这就是定做。
4. The Information Link means making sure the company responds quickly to people’s demands..信息关联就是保证公司能尽快对顾客的需要作出反应,怎样做到这点呢,选项C给了我们答案,在每出售一件商品都要记录商品的信息,这样就可以知道哪些商品比较畅销。
5. All the stores have the same clothing, the same window displays, and the same approach to sales.这里前一句话是所有的连锁店都是卖的同样的衣服,同样的陈列方式,同样的销售方式,这样做的目的是为了让消费者放心购买他们的商品。
