问题 What’s the plan GM’s CEO announced at the automaker’s annual shareholders meeting?
  
General Motors announced today that it will eliminate at least 25,000 manufacturing jobs in the US within the next three years.
     General Motors’ CEO Rick Wagoner announced the planned job-cuts at the automaker’s annual shareholders meeting in Willington, Delaware. GM also expects to close more vehicle assembly and parts plants. Wagoner says the moves are expected to save GM about 2.5 billion dollars a year. He also laid out a four-point approach to improve the company’s profits. The world’s largest automaker has been struggling with slumping sales and rising cost for raw materials and employee health care. Wagoner says health care adds about 1500 dollars to the cost of each GM vehicle.
选项 A、Slumping sales.
B、Rising cost of raw materials.
C、Employee health care.
D、Employee’s wages.
答案D
解析 本题考查对新闻细节的捕捉。新闻的最后提到了通用汽车裁员计划的原因：“The world’s largest automaker has been struggling with slumping sales and rising cost for raw materials and employee health care. Wagoner says health care adds about 1500 dollars to the cost of each GM vehicle.”可知企业面临的困难是：汽车销售的下滑、原材料的涨价和企业员工的医疗保健费用，大大增加了企业的负担，其中企业员工的医疗保健费用将使每一台通用汽车的成本增加1500美元。而新闻中并没有提到选项D。
