（一）5月通用福特汽车销量下降

[Yahoo]The U.S. automotive scene changed little in May： General Motors Corp. and Ford Motor Co. again reported decreased demand for their vehicles， particularly trucks and SUVs， while Chrysler Group and Asian brands generally posted positive results.

To make matters worse for GM and Ford — and their suppliers — both automakers said Wednesday they plan to cut third-quarter production because of sluggish business. The cuts are sure to hurt the companies\' bottom lines. George Pipas， Ford\'s top sales analyst， said May was a weak month for the industry， especially compared to last year. The seasonally adjusted annual sales rate for May was 16.6 million vehicles， down from 17.7 million last May. The rate indicates what sales would be for the full year if they remained at the same pace for all 12 months. Full-year sales for 2004 were about 17 million.

“The consumer appears to have taken a little pause，” Pipas said. “The Memorial Day weekend was pretty strong， but it didn\'t outdo the month-end reporting of a year ago.” GM and Ford， the nation\'s two biggest automakers， saw sales slip again in May as customers continued to turn away from their sport utility vehicles and trucks in favor of models from Asian competitors. The traditional Big Three automakers saw truck sales slip 4.4 percent in May， while Asian automakers saw comparable sales rise 6.9 percent.

There were some bright spots for domestic automakers. DaimlerChrysler AG\'s Chrysler Group said car sales rose 13 percent and truck sales were up 3 percent for the month. The Chrysler 300 sedan and the Chrysler Town and Country minivan helped the Chrysler brand set an all-time monthly sales record， the company said.

Ford\'s Mustang coupe had its highest May sales since 1980， up 47 percent from last May. But that blistering pace will likely subside in June， Pipas said， because the company can\'t keep up with demand. GM\'s Cadillac division also enjoyed its best sales month in 12 years.The news for Asian automakers was generally good， though results were lower than the double-digit increases some companies saw in April. Toyota Motor Corp.‘s sales rose 7.8 percent last month， dragged down a bit by flat truck sales. Overall sales for the automaker are up 11.9 percent for the year.

Korean automaker Hyundai Motor Co.\'s truck sales are up 23 percent for the year thanks to its new Tucson SUV， which had a record sales month in May. Hyundai\'s sales gained 8.5 percent for the month and 12.5 percent for the year.Nissan Motor Co.\'s truck sales are up 27 percent for the year， led by the Armada SUV. Nissan‘s sales jumped 15.5 percent in May and are up 15.8 percent for the year.

（二）中核集团投巨资开发电力

[要求]Study the following essay carefully and write a summary in about 80 words.

China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC)， the nation\'s largest reactor builder， intends to use its own technology to build two 650-megawatt reactors and two 1，000-megawatt reactors at its Qinshan plant， which will more than double its generation capacity.

Upon completion of both projects， the installed capacity of the Qinshan nuclear power plant will be set to rise to 6，200 megawatts from the current 2，900 megawatts generated by five running reactors， a CNNC news centre official said.

Total investment for the planned expansion projects is expected to reach US$4.33 billion， based on construction costs provided by CNNC.

For the two 650-megawatt reactors， it will cost US$1，330 for each kilowatt of added capacity. The 1，000-megawatt reactors are US$30 less for each kilowatt to build because of the technology that the two gigawatt reactors will use， said company sources.

The two 650-megawatt reactors have already won final central government approval， and will be installed at the second phase project of the Qinshan plant in Zhejiang Province， which has already been operating two Chinese-designed 600-megawatt reactors， using technology known as the China Nuclear Power (CNP) 600， its own technology.

“Infrastructure for the two reactors is scheduled to commence construction next March， and the expansion project is expected to last at least five or six years，” Li said.

The remaining two planned 1-gigawatt reactors will go to Fangjiashan， 650 metres away from the Qinshan phase I project， which already has one 300-megawatt reactor in operation.

[练习辅助]：中国核工业集团公司计划投入4千亿元资金，使核电装机容量到2020年达到4000万千瓦，这意味着未来还需要开工新建30台左右的百万千瓦级核电机组。
