听力原文: Right, let's move on to the targets for 1998 and our medium-term plans. For the AMAT, we expect to reach sales of 250,000—this is roughly the same figure as last year and it may be a little pessimistic, as we are going to do a large-scale promotion campaign during the year—so perhaps we will achieve something like 300,000. Still I prefer to keep the forecast at 250,000.
Now, we come to the BMAT. Here sales should reach 450,000. This could be a little optimistic as we are not going to push this product in 1998. In any case, the total will probably balance out with the more conservative forecast for the AMAT. The CMAT, our most recent product, will continue to do well. Sales may go as high as 600,000. However, I have set the target slightly lower at 550,000.
OK, let's turn to our medium-term plans. At the beginning of 1998 we are going to launch our new product—the DMAT—and we are sure sales will take off very quickly. We estimate first year sales at 200,000. The DMAT should initially complement tile AMAT and eventually replace it in the nineties. Finally, R & D are working hard on a medium-range product—they hope to have it ready by 1999 so we could launch it in 2000.
•You will hear a talk on import regulations.

听力原文: STMicroelectonics NV, Infineon Technologies AG and United Microelectronics Corp reported improved financial results as sales of chips used in cars, mobile phones and personal computers increased.
STMicroelectonics, based in Geneva, reported first quarter net income of US$132 million, compared with a loss of US$31 million a year earlier. Infineon says its net loss in the fiscal second quarter narrowed to 26 million euros (US$32.3 million) from 114 million euros (US$141 million). Europe's two biggest chipmakers beat analysts' estimates. United Microelectronics' first quarter profit rose eightfold to NT$12.3 billion (US$384 million), missing estimates.
The three chipmakers says hey expect to benefit from increasing demand for mobile phones. Nokia Oyj, the world's largest maker of mobile phones, expects global sales of handsets to grow at least 15 percent in 2006.
STMicroelectronics says sales this quarter will rise 2 percent to 8 percent from the first quarter. Munich-based Infineon expects operating profit and sales to fall at the two units it aims to keep, following a planned exit from the memory chip business.
Analysts expect STMicroelectronics's profit to reach US$104 million, for a loss of 76 million euros (US$95 million) at Infineon, surveys show. United Microelectronics missed estimates, because phone chip prices fell and onetime gains were lower than expected.
STMicroelectronics says its gross margin could reach 35.8 percent, plus or minus 1 percentage point, in the second quarter. That fell short of expectations that the company could record a gross margin -- the percentage of sales left after substracting manufacturing costs — of as high as 36.7 percent in the second quarter, according to six analysts in a Bloomberg survey.
How much was the net income of STMicroelectronics in the first quarter last year?
A.132 million US dollars.
B.114 million US dollars.
C.163 million US dollars.
D.141 million US dollars.
