M: Including loans? I would say in the area of two million US dollars.
W: I see.
M: How much would you like to invest in this project?
W: (24) As a general practice we lay out 51 percent of the overall investment. This includes, of course, capital, factory, buildings and equipments, things like that.

M: Well, in China that would (22) depend on one's academic merits. If you are excellent you'd get accepted in a tuition-free status.
W: I see. So will it be possible to work part-time to support yourself?

听力原文:W: Have you found a job yet?
M: No, and I'm getting discouraged. I went to the job market yesterday, but no one was really interested in hiring an English major.
W: I know what you mean. I was told by many of the companies there that they are looking for people with other skills. Fortunately, I am good at computing. I think I have a job lined up.
M: Tell me about it.
W: The first people I talked to said they were very interested in me, because I am familiar with Word Perfect. When they interviewed me, I was able to speak English better than the boss and he was very impressed with my combination of skills.
M: I was hoping to find a sales job with an import-export company.
W: You'd be good at that kind of job. Your English is very good. My older brother works for a Chinese American joint venture in Guangzhou and he is doing very well. He wanted me to go down there and work with him, but I think I would rather take this job here. If you would like, I will call him and ask him to help you find a job there.
M: I would really appreciate that. I know several of our classmates have found jobs there. It's a long way from home, but I hear the pay is good there. Thank you for your help.
W: Don' t mention it.

How things have changed. Nuclear power is back in favor, thanks to fears about oil supplies, energy security and global warming. France is ready to develop its expertise into a significant export. Its president, Nicolas Sarkozy, considers the sale of nuclear power to be central to his diplomacy: it is a symbol of France's technical power and a reaffirmation of its status as a global industrial power. Soon after his election 18 months ago, he toured countries from China to Libya to tout France's nuclear expertise, signing deals to open the way for French firms to sell reactors.
France has two competitive advantages in the field. First, it has the most recent and extensive experience of any country in building and operating nuclear plants. That has given Areva's "third generation" reactor design, called the EPR, an advantage over blueprints from its two big rivals: Westinghouse, now a unit of Toshiba of Japan, and GE Hitachi, a recently formed joint venture(合资企业). Second, French engineers have developed a new reprocessing technique, so that nuclear energy produces less waste than in other countries.
Areva's EPRs are under construction at Flamanville in Normandy, Olkiluoto in Finland and Taishan in China. Areva forecasts that demand for nuclear capacity could bring it orders for 60 reactors, or one-third of the total market, by 2020 -- each with a price of around 5 billion. Westinghouse has orders from China for four of its new AP1000 reactors, and GE Hitachi's ESBWR design is being considered by several American utilities.
The high cost of building new plants, arid the uncertainty over the cost of nuclear energy relative to other sources, could delay the nuclear renaissance (复兴), especially in the midst of a credit crunch. Luckily for sellers, governments are bent on tackling climate change and securing energy supplies, and are likely to offer big subsidies.
Britain, for one, has given its blessing to France's nuclear ambitions: in September Electricit6 de France (EDF), a state-owned energy giant which owns and runs France's plants (and is thus closely intertwined with Areva), bought British Energy, a troubled utility in which the British government held a big share.
What does the author tell us about Areva in the passage?
A.It is a French company, used to be owned by. private sector.
B.It has stepped into the third-generation .reactor design period.
C.Its third generation reactor has been constructed in France, Finland and China.
D.Its nuclear capacity will occupy one-third of the total in less than a decade.
