To compete effectively in international markets, a nation’s businesses must sustain investment in intangible as well as physical assets.  Although an enormous pool of investment capital exists in the United States, the country’s capital investment practices put United States companies at a competitive disadvantage.

United States capital investment practices, shaped by sporadic and unpredictable changes in tax policy and high federal budget deficits, encourage both underinvestment and overinvestment. For example, United States companies invest at a low rate in internal development projects, such as improving supplier relations, that do not offer immediate profit, and systematically invest at a high rate in external projects, such as corporate takeovers, that yield immediate profit. Also, United States companies make too few linkages among different forms of investments. Such linkages are important because physical assets, such as factories, may not reach their potential level of productivity unless companies make parallel investments in intangible assets such as employee training and product redesign. In general, unlike Japanese and German investment practices, which focus on companies’ long-term interests, United States investment practices favor those forms of investment for which financial returns are most readily available. By making minimal investments in intangible assets, United States companies reduce their chances for future competitiveness.

23. The passage is primarily concerned with(内容性主题题)

A. evaluating strategies for improving United States competitiveness in international markets B. illustrating the possible uses of investment capital

C. analyzing some failings of capital investment practices in the United States D. suggesting reasons for increasing linkages among different types of investments

E. contrasting the benefits of investment in physical assets with the benefits of investment in intangible assets

24. According to the passage, which of the following characterizes the capital allocation strategy of United States companies? (事实题)

A. They tend to underinvest in intangible assets. B. They tend to invest heavily in product redesign. C. They tend to underinvest in physical assets.

D. They make parallel investments in internal and external projects. E. They seek to allocate capital in ways that reduce their tax burden.

25. Which of the following best describes the purpose of the second paragraph? (举例题)

A. To propose a solution to the problem introduced in the first paragraph

B. To provide support for an argument presented in the first paragraph

C. To provide data to refute an assertion made in the first paragraph
