IKEAsname es from Kamprads initials (I.K.) and the place where he grew up (Eand A).Today IKEA is known for its modern, minimalist furniture1, but it wasnot a furniture pany in the beginning.Rather, IKEA sold all kinds ofmiscellaneous goods.Kamprads wares included anything that he could sell forprofits at discounted prices2, including watches, pens and stockings.
IKEAfirst began to sell furniture through a mail-order catalogue in 1947. Thefurniture was all designed and made by manufacturers near Kamprads home.Initialsales were very encouraging, so Kamprad expanded the product line.Furniturewas such a successful aspect of the business that IKEA became solely afurniture pany in 1951.
In1953 IKEA opened its first showroom in Almhult, Sweden.IKEA is known today forits spacious stores with furniture iti attractive settings, but in the early1950s, people ordered from catalogues.Thus response to the first showroom wasoverwhelming: people loved being able to see and try the furniture beforebuying it.This led to increased sales and the pany continued to thrive.By1955, IKEA was designing all its own furniture.
In1956 Kamprad saw a man disassembling a table to make it easier to transport.Kamprad was inspired.The man had given him a great idea: flat packaging3.Flatpackaging would mean lower shipping costs for IKEA and lower prices forcustomers.IKEA tried it and sales soared.The problem was that people had toassemble furniture themselves, but over time, even this grew into an advantagefor IKEA.Nowadays, IKEA is often seen as hing connotations ofself-sufficiency.This image has done wonders for the pany, leading tobetter sales and continued expansion.
Todaythere are over 200 stores in 32 countries.Amazingly, Inar Kamprad hasmanaged to keep IKEA a privately-held pany.In 2004 he was named the worldsrichest man.He currently lives in Switzerland and is retired from theday-to-day operations of IKEA.IKEA itself, though, just keeps on growing.

TheDay a Language Died
WhenCarlos Westez died at the age of 76, a language died, too.Carlos Westez, moremonly known as Red Thunder Cloud, was the last speaker of the NativeAmerican language Catawba.Anyone who wants to hear various songs of theCatawba can contact the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., where,back in the 1940s.Red Thunder Cloud recorded a series of songs for futuregenerations.Some people might even try to learn some of these songs byhearts.(46 F) They are all that is left ofthe Catawba language.The language that people used to speak is gone forever.
Weare all aware of the danger that modern industry can do to the worlds ecology(生态). However, few people are awareof the impact that widely spoken languages he on other languages and ways oflife.English has spread all over the world.Chinese, Spanish, Russian, andHindi he bee powerful languages as well.As these languages bee morepowerful, their use as tools of business and culture increases.(47 D)When this happens, hundreds oflanguages that are spoken by only a few people die out.
Scholarsbelieve there are around 6,000 languages around the world, but more than halfof them could die out within the next 100 years.There are many examples. Arakiis a native language of the island of Vanuatu, located in the Pacific Ocean.Itis spoken by only a few adults, so like Catawba, Araki will soon disappear.Manylanguages of Ethiopian will he the same fate because each one has only a fewspeakers.Papua New Guinea is an extremely rich source of differentlanguage, but more than 100 of them are in danger of extinction(灭绝).(48 C)In the Americas, 100 languages,each of which has fewer than 300 speakers, also are dying out.
RedThunder Cloud was one of the first to recognize the threat of language deathand to try to do something about it.He was not actually born into the Catawbatribe, and the language was not his mother tongue.However, he was afrequent visitor to the Catawba reservation in South Carolina, where he learnedthe language.(49 A)The songs he sang forthe Smithsonian Institution helped to make Native American music popular.Nowhe is gone, and the language is dead.
Whatdoes it mean for the rest of us when a language disappears? When a plant,insect, or animal species dies, it is easy to understand what weve lost and toappreciate what this means for the balance of the natural world.However,language is only a product of the mind.To be the last remaining speaker of alanguage, like Red Thunder Cloud, must be a lonely destiny, almost as strangeand terrible as being the last surviving member of a dying species.For therest of us, when a language dies, we lose the possibility of a unique way ofseeing and describing the world.(50 B)
46.F.Some people might want to try to learn some of these songs by heart.
47.D.As these languages bee more powerful, their use as tools of business andculture increases.
48.C.Papua New Guinea is an extremely rich source of different language, but morethan 100 of them are in danger of extinction(灭绝).
49.A.However, he was a frequent visitor to the Catawba reservation in SouthCarolina, where he learned the language.
50.B.For the rest of us, when a language dies, we lose the possibility of aunique way of seeing and describing the world.
【E.These languages donthe many native speakers.】

PublicRelations
【来自于2014职称英语教材综合类B级补全短文第8篇】
Publicrelations is a broad set of planned munications about the pany, includingpublicity releases, designed to promote goodwill and a forable image.
Publicitythen is part of public relations when it is initiated by the firm, usually inthe (51) form of press releases or press conferences.Since publicrelations involves munications with stockholders, financial analysts, governmentofficials, and other noncustomer groups, it is usually (52) placedoutside the marketing department, perhaps as a staff department or outsideconsulting firm reporting to top management.This anizational placement canbe a (53) limitation because the public relations department orconsultant will likely not be in tune with marketing efforts.Poormunication and no coordination may be the (54) consequences.Althoughthe basic purpose of public relations is to provide positive influence on thepublic image, this influence (55) generally may be less than (56) thatprovided by the other ponents of the public image mix.
Publicitymay be in the form of news releases that he (57) forable overtonesfor the pany initiated by the public relations department.Publicity on theother (58) hand should not be divorced from the department marketing asit can (59) provide a useful adjunct to the regular advertising.(60) Furthermore,not all publicity is initiated by the firm; some can (61) result from anunforable press as a reaction to certain actions or lack of (62) actionsthat are controversial or even downright ill-advised.
The(63) point we wish to emphasize is that a firm is deluding itself if itthinks its public relations function, whether within the pany or an outsidefirm, can take (64) care of public image problems and opportunities.Many factors impact on the public image.Many of these he to do with the waythe (65) firm does business, such as its product quality, the servicingand handling of plaints, etc.
