听力原文： Ireland's smoking ban came in at the end of March this year and its impact is be

ing demonstrated. Figures from Gallaher, the manufacturer of big, well known brands, and which holds a fifty percent market share in Ireland, show it sold two hundred and sixty million fewer cigarettes between January and June. Total sales in the country shrank by around seven and a half percent. The company blames duty increases as well as the effect of the soling ban. The Irish health minister Michael Martin welcomed the drop in sales, saying that the less people smoke, the better it is for the nation's health. He hopes that the ban will encourage more smokers to either give up, or to smoke less. A possible downside, though, for the Irish government is that tax revenue from tobacco sales is predicted to fall by almost one hundred million dollars this year.

Drop in cigarette sales in Ireland is due to the following factors EXCEPT______.

A．fewer smokers

B．tax increases

C．smoking ban

D．tobacco companies

This momentous transformation in the U．S．should soon bring about a huge bull market． In the l940s and l950s，the last time price earning multiples were at these low levels，the investing public expected that there would be another great postwar depression．Instead，aRer the beginning of l953 it became apparent that there would not be one，and price-earnings multiples got so low this time that investors felt that the country was drifting into socialism．That drift，however，may be reversing direction．

Wilson believes that the bankruptcy of New York City means the discrediting of big government，that as a result there will be less government，and that things in general will go much better．From l980’s depressed levels the market could rise to twenty times doubled earnings or almost fivefold in five to seven years．Wilson believes that he’ll be worth hundreds of millions of dollars before it’s over．

Unilever has cut its workforce by33，000 to 245，000 anddropped lots of its minor brands as Dart of its“path to growth”strategy．Cadbury has shut nearly 20 percent of its 133 factories and cut 10Dercent of its 55，000 global workforce．These cuts help keep costs down，and theprice of food stays low． 4 Does cheap food make people unhealthy？ Cheap food may encotlrage people toeat more．Good companies certainly think that givingpeople more food for their money makes them buy more．Givingpeople bigger portmns IS an easy way of making them feel they have got a betterdeal．That is why Dortions have got larger and larger．In America，soft drinks came in 80z(225g)cansin the past，then 120z(350g)，andnow come in 200z(550g)calls．If a company can sell youan 80z portion for$7，they can sell you a 120z portionfor$8．The only extra cost to the company is the food，which Drobably costs 25 cents． 5 Now companies are under pressureto stop selling bigger portions for less money．But it is hard to change the trend． {TS}Paragraph 1__________ 回答{TSE}题： How Technology Pushes Down Price 1 Price
