It would be all too easy to say that Facebook’s market meltdown is coming to an end.After all,Mark Zuckerberg’s social

network burned as much as$50 billion of shareholders’wealth in just a couple months.To put that in context,since its debut(初次登台)on NASDAQ in May,Facebook has lost value nearly equal to Yahoo,AOL,Zynga,Yelp,Pandora,Open Table,

Group on,LinkedIn,and Angie's List combined,plus that of the bulk of the publicly traded newspaper industry:

As shocking as this utter failure may be to the nearly 1 billion faithful Facebook users around the world,it’s no surprise to

anyone who read the initial public offering(IPO)prospectus(首次公开募股说明书).Worse still,all the crises that emerged

when the company debuted-overpriced shares,poor corporate governance,huge challenges to the core business,and a

damaged brand-remain today.Facebook looks like a prime example of what Wall Street calls a falling knife-that is,one that

can cost investors their fingers if they try to catch it.

Start with the valuation.To justify a stock price close to the lower end of the projected range in the IPO,say$28 a share,Facebook’s future growth would have needed to match that of Google seven years earlier.That would have required

increasing revenue by some 80 percent annually and maintaining high profit margins all the while.

That’s not happening.In the first half of 2012,Facebook reported revenue of$2.24 billion,up 38 percent from the same

period in 2011.At the same time,the company’s costs surged to$2.6 billion in the six-month period.

This so-so performance reflects the Achilles’heel of Facebook’s business model,which the company clearly stated in a

list of risk factors associated with its IPO:it hasn’t yet figured out how to advertise effectively on mobile devices,The number

of Facebook users accessing the site on their phones surged by 67 percent to 543 million in the last quarter,or more than

half its

  • A.have been disclosed in the IPO prospectus
  • B.are the universal risks Wall Street confronts
  • C.disappoint its faithful users
  • D.have existed for a long time

答案: D
本题解析:

本题考查细节。

由题干中的crises和Facebook定位到原文第二段第二句。D选项,已经存在很长时间了,与定位句中remain today的意思相同,综上,D选项正确。

A选项,“已经显示在公开募股说明书中”,第二段首句只是提到看过脸谱网公开募股说明书的人对其失败不会感到震惊,并未表明脸谱网在其公开募股说明书中公开了所面临的危机,属于推断过度,故排除。

B选项,“是华尔街所面临的普遍危机”原文未提及,故排除。

C选项,“使得忠实用户对其失望”原文未提及,故排除。

故正确选项为D。
