2015考研英语阅读夏普和鸿海

　　8月3日，因夏普第二季度预计亏损12亿美元的资讯公布，夏普股价应声暴跌了28%。鸿海方面表示由于夏普股价大跌，双方已经达成共识，富士康可以不用按之前商议的价格履行认购义务。但是，鸿海的这个说法显然让夏普有些意外，后者随后简要表示双方并没有要重新议价。

　　What is going on? Kirk Yang of Barclays Capital, a bank, reckons it unlikely that Sharp willforce Hon Hai to honour its original deal. He thinks the likely outcome is for Hon Hai to takea 9.9% stake in Sharp but at a price closer to ￥200-300 rather than ￥550,where the shares stood when the deal was agreed in March. Others speculate that areworked deal may give his firm a bigger stake in Sharp.
