marketing concept,it is only necessary to understandthe difference 2 marketing 3 selling.Not too many years ago,mostindustries concentrated primarily 4 the efficient production of goods,andthen relied 5 “persuasive salesmanship”to move as much of these goods6 possible.Such production and selling focuses 7 the needs of theseller to produce goods and then convert them 8 money.Marketing,9 the other hand,focuses on the wants of consumers,Itbegins 10 first analyzing the preferences and demands of consumers andthen producing goods that will satisfy them.This eye on the consumerapproach is known as the marketing concept,which simply means thatinstead of trying to sell whatever is easiest to produce or buy 11 resale,the makers and dealers first endeavor to find out what the consumer wants tobuy and then go about making it available 12 purchase.This concept does not imply that business is benevolent or thatconsumer satisfaction is given priority 13 profit in a company.There arealways two sides to every business transaction the firm and the customer-and each must be satisfied before trade occurs.Successful merchants andproducers,however,recognize that the surest route to profit is throughunderstanding and catering to(迎合)customers.A striking example of theimportance of catering to the consumer presented itself 14 mid-1985,when Coca Cola changed the flavor of its drink,the nonacceptance of thenew flavor by a significant portion of the public brought 15 a promptrestoration of the Classic Coke,which was then marketed alongside the new.King Customer ruled!IV.Reading（40 points,2 points each）Read the following passages and answer the multiple-choice questions;decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the AnswerSheet with a single line through the centre.Passage 1 According to a survey,which was based on the responses of over188,000 students,todays traditional-age college freshmen are“morematerialistic and less altruistic(利他主义的)”than at any time in the 17years of the poll.Not surprising in these hard times,the students major objective“is to befinancially well off.Less important than ever is developing a meaningfulphilosophy of life.”It follows then that today the most popular course is notliterature or history but accounting.Interest in teaching,social service and the“altruistic”fields is at a low.On the other hand,enrollment in business programs,engineering andcomputer science is way up.Thats no surprise either.A friend of mine(a sales representative for achemical company)was making twice the salary of her college instructors herfirst year on the jobeven before she completed her two-year associatedegree.While its true that we all need a career,it is equally true that ourcivilization has accumulated an incredible amount of knowledge in fields farremoved from our own and that we are better for our understanding of theseother contributionsbe they scientific or artistic.It is equally true that,instudying the diverse wisdom of others,we learn how to think.Moreimportant,perhaps,education teaches us to see the connections betweenthings,as well as to see beyond our immediate needs.Weekly we read of unions who went on strike for higher wages,only todrive their employer out of business.No company;no job.How shortsightedin the long run!But the most important argument for a broad education is that instudying the accumulated wisdom of the ages,we improve our moral sense.Isaw a cartoon recently which shows a group of businessmen looking puzzledas they sit around a conference table;one of them is talking on the intercom(对讲机):“Miss Baxter,”he says,“could you please send in someone whocan distinguish right from wrong?”From the long-term point of view,thats what education really ought tobe about.1.According to the authors observation,college students _.A)have never been so materialistic as todayB)have never been so interested in the artsC)have never been so financially well off astodayD)have never attached so much importanceto moralsense（A）2.The students criteria for selecting majors today have much to dowith _.A)the influences of thei
