问题 Read the text below from a report about sales figures.
In most lines(41-52), there is one extra word. It either is grammatically incorrect or does not fit in with the sense of the text. Some lines, however, are correct.
If a line is correct, write CORRECT on your Answer Sheet.
If there is an extra word in the line, write the extra word in CAPITAL LETTERS on your Answer Sheet.
The exercise begins with two examples(0 and 00).

            Report to Managing Director on Sales Figures
0 After six successful quarters of sales in the Seattle area, results for
00 the last quarter were disappointing too. General sales were down
41 16 per cent, on average, across our nine area stores. While as I noted
42 in my last report, it is my view that some of this downturn can then be attributed
43 to layoffs at IMP plc, which, as you know, it is the area’s largest employer.
44 During the quarter, IMP plc gave layoff notices to something in the region of
45 5 per cent part of its workforce. But it would be dangerous, I believe,
46 to assume that our sales slump is due simply to such layoffs. In the same
47 period of time, two powerful competitors - as SaveMarts and Bargain
48 Buys - opened a total sum of eight stores within our main catchment
49 area. However, the grand openings of these stores were accompanied
50 by their heavy advertising of sales items. I recommend that a thorough
51 assessment of how the impact of such competition upon our sales.
52 Equipped with this detailed knowledge, we would scarcely be in a position to review our current strategy.
