2023中国邮政储蓄银行校园招聘英语真题（16）
Wirecard AG is negotiating with representatives of Alipay . a unit of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba, about it taking a stake of up to 25 percent in the German banking software company, a newspaper reported on Sunday.
Without citing its sources, the Bild am Sonntag weekly said Wirecard was in confidential talks with Alipany about it taking a stake of up to 25 percent , and possibly more later. A Wirecard spokeswoman declined to comment on the specifics of the report but confirmed that the company was in strategic talks with various partners, without elaborating .A source familiar with the matter said Ant Financial, which operates the Alipay platform, was not talking to Wirecard about an investment.
In December ,the two companies agreed to a deal to provide mobile phone payment services for Chinese tourists visiting Europe. The newspaper said both sides had an interest in the deal: The Chinese want access to German expertise, while Wirecard would like to have a large shareholder, because its share price has come under pressure from short-sellers. A deal would mark the latest Chinese investment in a German firm after a 4.5 billion euro takeover bid by China’s Midea for German industrial robot maker Kuka.
Alipay counts more than 400 million active users of its payment systems in China, representing an estimated 80 percent of the mobile payments market and 50 percent of the online market in the world’s second-largest economy. Its electronic wallet system is widely used in both retail shops and for online transactions.

1、答案：D 【解析】下文提到了A Wirecard spokeswoman declined to comment on the specifics，说明公司对目前的合作细节不愿意透露更多，所以很多都是机密内容。D选项正确。
2、答案：B 【解析】文章第二段提到了“confirmed that the company was in strategic talks with various partners”，说的是公司现在和很多合作者进行战略对话。因此B选项正确。
3、答案：C 【解析】这道题首先要求读懂题干。题目问的是下面这些事件按照时间顺序哪一个最先发生。根据文章第三段“A deal would mark the latest Chinese investment in a German firm after a 4.5 billion euro takeover bid by China’s Midea for German industrial robot maker Kuka”，美的公司（Midea）是和德国公司合作是最早发生的。
4、答案：C 【解析】最后一段说“Alipay counts more than 400 million active users of its payment systems in China, representing an estimated 80 percent of the mobile payments market and 50 percent of the online market in the world’s second-largest economy.”讲的是阿里公司的市场份额和用户数量。但是C选项说阿里在世界在线市场的份额达到了50%，偷换了原文的概念。
5、答案：A 【解析】这篇文章主要讲的是Alipay有可能和德国的Wirecard合作。A选项正确。
