36、 or complete the statement. You must choose the one which you think fits best. Blacken the corresponding letter as required on your Machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET.Questions 61-70 are based on the following passage.While some international Ucouriers/U are showing signs of exhaustion, EMS (Express Mail

37、Service), the generic name for the courier services of post offices, seems to be finding its Ustride/U. Known as Datapost in Britain, as Chronopost in France, and as A1-Barid al-Mumtaz in Saudi Arabia, EMS is now second in the international courier business (jointly with TNT Skypack). Last year it d

38、elivered 5.6 million items, weighing less than 20 kilograms each, across borders. That and its annual growth rate of around 5 percent have worried DHL, the market leader, enough for it to counter-attack in the Courts.On October 26, a Dutch judge ruled against DHL on all three counts filed against th

39、e Dutch post office: that the three-initial name was too close to DHLs; that the orange lines in the EMS logo were too similar to DHLs dark red ones; and that the claim to the widest route system in the world was unfounded. DHL has threatened the Swiss post office with similar action, but it may rec

One is a dense ready-made network of offices, especially in Europe, the avowed target area of the private couriers. Another advantage is a long tradition of working with customs authorities. In a business where minutes

41、 count, it pays to have good friends at customs. That advantage particularly irritates the private couriers because there is no legal way to combat such unquantifiable coziness.The private courier services are also annoyed because in countries like Switzerland and Italy, where the post office is off

42、icially a monopoly, they pay it a fee. In Switzerland DHL says it pays more than SFr lm ($ 708,000) “to the competition“ each year. In France the couriers have won a battle for exoneration.Although governments are under little pressure to keep prices artificially low, EMS is often cheaper than the p

43、rivate couriers, but not always. A recent test in Britain (on a domestic route) showed Datapost about halfway between the least and the most expensive, but gave it full marks for speed and service.Each national EMS is free to set its rates and follow its own rules on things like bulk discounts. The

44、Universal Postal Union, based in Berne, determines how costs and revenues are split between sending and receiving countries, and standardizes procedures. More than 100 postal administrations have linked into the systemand more are coming, including Russias. That makes the feisty EMS particularly hap

45、py since its rivals have not been allowed to serve anywhere in Russia.（分数：10.00）(1).The passage focuses primarily on _.（分数：1.00）A.problems of post offices in BritainB.the new courier serviceEMSC.the competition between private and international courier servicesD.differences between EMS and DHL(2).Th
