　　 2011.12英语四级考试阅读：中国制造出名了

　　RENEE MONTAGNE， host： Quick - name a Chinese brand， just one. The fact is， after 30 years of bone-shaking， mind-bending economic group， everyone knows about brand China， but few can name a specific Chinese brand. As we continue our series on China， NPRs the reason for that is not just economic.

　　ROB GIFFORD： In a bustling market near the center of the Phnom Penh， 24-year-old Soray Peah is testing the ringtones on a cell phone she wants to buy.

　　Ms. SORAY PEAH：（Foreign language spoken）

　　GIFFORD： Ill definitely buy a Chinese-made phone， she says， because theyre cheap， even though the quality is not great.

　　Ms. PEAH：（Foreign language spoken）

　　GIFFORD： But she doesnt know any Chinese brands， and in fact the brand she is going to buy is a fake Nokia， copied in China and sold Asia. This reputation for Chinese-made goods holds inside more upscale stores in Phnom Penh， as well.

　　Manager Tha Vy runs a smart store in a mall， selling electronics.

　　Mr. THA VY （Electronics Store Manager）： No， we dont have Chinese brands. Weve got only Korean brands and Japanese brands， because the Chinese products came to Cambodia for the first time， the products were very poor quality.

　　GIFFORD： So， a store manager in Cambodia puts his finger on a key point of Chinas rise： cheap T-shirts and fake mobile phones： fine. IPads and laptops assembled for foreign companies： fine， too. But Chinese brands？ Its not really happening yet.
