Private warehouses provide more control since the enterprise has absolute decision-making authority over all activities in the warehouse. The control facilitates the ability to integrate warehouse operation with the rest of the firms internal logistics process. But private warehousing is also characterized by some drawbacks, including high fixed cost of private storage and necessity of having high and steady demand volumes. The largest users of private warehousing are retail chain stores; they handle large volumes of products on a regular basis. Manufacturing firms also utilize private warehousing.1. What does the underlined word “since” in line 2 most possibly mean? A. because B. but C. so2. Is the control provided by private warehousing helpful in integrating warehouse operations with the rest of the firms internal logistics process?A. Yes B. No C. Not mentioned3. Which is not mentioned in terms of drawbacks of private warehousing in the passage?A. cost B. demand volume C. quality4. Who most possibly will be the largest users of private warehousing according to the passage?A. chain retailers B. chain wholesalers C. manufacturers5. The underlined word “utilize” at the end of the passage can be replaced by_.A. manage B. use C. control短文理解 2Every user of warehousing facility wants it to operate with highest efficiency possible. But to achieve this goal, we need to take serious considerations with the warehousing design. One common-sense piece of advice is that prior to designing a warehouse, the quantity and character of goods to be handled must be known. Besides, the frequency with which it is picked and whether it is fast or slow moving comparing to other items also need to be considered. For example, the fast moving product has to be placed closed to where order selectors go to pick them, in an effort to reduce walking time.A second common-sense piece of advice is that it is important for an organization to know the purpose to be served by the facility, because relative emphasis placed on the storage and distribution functions affects warehouse layout. A storage facility with low rate of product turnover should be laid out in a way that maximizes the utilization of the capacity of the storage facility. A distribution-oriented facility attempts to maximize throughput rather than storage. 1. What is of great importance to the user of warehousing facility?A. efficiency B. effectiveness C. Not mentioned2. What should be considered to achieve efficiency?A. the value of goods B. warehousing design C. quantity and character of goods3. What does the underlined phrase “prior to” most possibly mean in paragraph one?A. before B. after C. when4. How should a storage facility with low rate of product turnover be designed?A. In a way that makes profits as much as possible from the use of the storage facilityB. In a way that reduces the costs of the storage facility C. In a way that makes full use of the capacity of the storage facility5. What does a distribution-oriented facility want to maximize?A. products B. storage C. throughput 短文理解 3One of the most popular contemporary approaches of inventory management is the JIT philosophy. The JIT approach seeks to minimize inventory by reducing safety stock, as well as by having the required amount materials arrive at the production location at the exact time they are needed. The JIT approach views inventories as waste, therefore, has to be kept to the lowest level, if it cant be totally eliminated.Because of the systems emphasis on low (no) safety inventory, the supplier must deliver high-quality materials to the production line on time. Defective materials may result in a production line shutdown and cause big loss for the producer.1. What dose the underlined word “minimize” in Para.1 most possibly mean?A. increase B. improve C. cut down2. According to the passage, is inventory of great value in the JIT approach?A. Yes B. No C. Not mentioned3. What does the JIT approach want to achieve?A. low safety inventory B. No safety inventory C. Either A or B4. What will low-quality materials cause?A. production line shutdown B. big loss for the producer C. Both A and B5. What does the underlined word “shutdown” in Para.2 most possibly mean?A. closing B. repairing C. maintenance短文理解 4A bill of lading (B/L) is used for sea shipment and is a certificate of ownership of goods. It must be presented at the port of final destination by the importer in order to claim goods. As a document of title, the bill of lading is also a negotiable document and you may sell the goods by endorsing or handing the bill of lading over to another authorized party, even while the goods are still at sea. Although negotiable bills of lading are commonly used, in some countries, they are still unacceptable. You ha
