1The author uses the metaphor "hot iron" to imply that_____. A.those measures will do more harm to UBSB. those measures will cauterize UBSC. those measures will forcefully stop UBS from furthur lossD.those measures will control bleeding of UBS 参考答案: C 细节题。作者将一系列的措施比喻为"烙铁",而这些措施又是为UBS提供资金,是一些好的措施,这个比喻让人费解。但结合第一段的上下文就可以理解,文章第一段开头就摆出UBS面临的抉择,是有控制的流血还是灼伤,UBS选择了后者,先是将伤口裸露出来,接着就来了"烙铁"。前后联系可以想到,烙铁可以灼伤伤口,但可以让伤口马上止血,也就是让UBS可以避免进一步的损失。因此,答案C最为符合。----------------------------------------2Compared with the mark-to-market valuations, the mark-to-model approach could _____.

A.this change was unexpected to take place in such a situationB.this change was result of the advice of auditors and regulatorsC.this change was unfavorite to UBSD.this change was taken to make people dispel their guess. 参考答案: D 推理题。题干中提到的转变是指UBS评估方法由模式方法转变为将市场结合进来的方法,马塞尔认为这种转变是"转移注意力的",由上文可知这种转变是UBS高层为了避免数月来对银行曝光的猜测。因此,所说的"转移注意力"是避免猜测,那么答案D最为符合。----------------------------------------4The phrase "the white knights"(Line 5, Paragraph 5) most probably means____. A.rich peopleB.savior
