题目内容:
Mobile phone users in China expected a pleasant surprise this month. Starting from October 1, a new policy adopted by the three giant cellphone operators — China Mobile, China Telecom and China Unicom — has allowed unused data from individual data packages to be carried over to the next month for use.
At the beginning, users of the three telecommunication companies welcomed this policy, since they would have more free data to use in the next month. However, even before Chinese users could enjoy the free extra package, the users found that since the adoption of the policy, the original data limits seem to be far more easily swallowed up, which means there wouldn’t be any unused data left for the next month. One user of China Unicom claimed that it took him only nine days to use up the data package of a month.
Telecoms have become a necessity in modern life like water or power, and raising or lowering costs significantly affects people’s lives and finances. But disagreements between consumers and service providers cover discussion. It is too early to judge how long the disagreement between telecommunication companies and consumers over data packages will last, since, according to media reports, the measurement of data usage is difficult to track. Companies are using “user privacy” to avoid giving out any information.
But reading through the companies posted online by cellphone users, we can sense the public’s distrust of Stated-owned enterprises (SOEs). A survey done by the people’s Tribune Research Center in 2012 found that the public’s negative impression of SOEs came from the belief that they only rely on government support and their employees usually do easy jobs but get higher pay, yet their sense of service is far behind private and foreign enterprises.
The current argument over the data package of three State-owned telecommunication giants reflects the extent of public anger. Among the country’s anti-corruption campaign (反腐败运动) and reforms, it shows the public’s enthusiasm for deepening reforms and making SOEs benefit domestic consumers.

A. SOEs are supported by the government to a large extent.
B. SOEs have benefited domestic consumers effectively.
C. SOEs’ employees don’t deserve the high pay.
D. SOEs’ service is worse than private and foreign enterprises.

A. the public are not satisfied with the reforms at present
