问题     To understand the marketing concept, it is only necessary to understand the difference between marketing and selling. Not too many years ago, most industries concentrated primarily on the efficient production of goods, and then relied on " persuasive salesmanship" to move as much of these goods as possible. Such production and selling focuses on the needs of the seller to produce goods and then convert them into money.
    Marketing, on the other hand, focuses on the wants of consumers. It begins with first analyzing the preferences and demands of consumers and then producing goods that will satisfy them. This eye-on-the-consumer approach is known as the marketing concept, which simply means that instead of trying to sell whatever is easiest to produce or buy for resale, the makers and dealers first endeavor to find out what the consumer wants to buy and then go about making it available for purchase.
    This concept does not imply that business is benevolent(慈善的)or that consumer satisfaction is given priority over profit in a company. There are always two sides to every business transaction— the firm and the customer—and each must be satisfied before trade occurs. Successful merchants and producers, however, recognize that the surest route to profit is through understanding and catering to customers. A striking example of the importance of its drink. The non-acceptance of the new flavor by a significant part of the public brought about a prompt restoration(恢复)of the Classic Coke, which was then marketed alongside new. King Customer ruled!
What does the restoration of the Classic Coke best illustrate?
选项 A、Traditional goods have a stronger appeal to the majority of people.
B、It takes time for a new product to be accepted by the public.
C、Consumers with conservative tastes are often difficult to please.
D、Products must be designed to suit the taste of the consumer.
答案D
解析 推理判断题，本题提问的是可口可乐公司恢复传统可口可乐口味的例子说明了什么。根据文章第三段第三句“…the surest route to profit is throughunderstanding and catering to customers”可知，后面所列举的可口可乐的例子是为了证明生产者以消费者为中心的重要性，故D为正确答案。此题的关键是明白cater to意为“迎合……的需要”，D项与此同义。
