"It's a good move for IBM," said Jason Maxwell, an analyst at Los Angeles-based TCW Group, which owns IBM shares. "It fits with their decade-old strategy of disinvesting in those areas where they don't have an advantage." IBM sold its hard-disk drive business in 2002 after the technology behind the products became widely available and easy to copy, leading to depressed profits. The same thing has happened in PCs as consumers use new items such as mobile phones to access the Internet. IBM, which made its first PC in 1981 and won orders by catering to businesses, retreated from selling its Aptiva PCs to retailers in the US in 1999 and decided to sell over the Internet.
Lenovo, based in Beijing, will reap benefits of the world's third most recognized brand-- IBM's brand name is worth US ＄53.8 billion, according to a survey by Interbrand.
How much will Lenovo pay in cash to purchase IBM？

For a person who conducts most of his life online, such a digital tragedy is akin to erasing part of his own memory. Suddenly, nothing is left. He has lost himself as well as his links with others.

听力原文：The teaching of English to speakers of other languages (TESOL) is an area in which Australia is internationally recognized to have developed considerable and particular expertise. So, too, in the teaching of the teachers, Australia has a strong reputation for the high quality of its pre-service and in-service training of English language teachers. My department, and particularly a subsidiary within it, Australian Education International, share a conviction that this expertise is of value to our overseas colleagues, many of whom have responsibility for developing TESOL in their own countries.
