Our flagship market is focused on building strong brands, translating brand value into customer value, and strengthening system capabilities to sustain and repeat success. We delivered solid results in a challenging environment, including 2% organic volume growth, as we continued our integration efforts following the largest acquisition in our company’s history, creating synergy savings to reinvest in our brands and capabilities. Strong consumer and customer programs included ABC Soda, which generated more than 2.1 billion consumer impressions, and continued successful marketing partnerships between ABC Soda and XYZ Drinks. Effective execution of our occasion-based, brand, package, price, and channel strategies delivered volume and value share gains across beverage categories. ABC Soda achieved its sixth consecutive year of double-digit volume growth; XYZ Drinks all grew triple digits.
The Europe Group overcame an uncertain economic environment to deliver 5% operating income growth and 4% unit case volume growth. The 130th anniversary of ABC Soda was activated with passion and creativity, driving brand love on a massive scale. Other marketing highlights included ABC Soda & Meals, driving sales with imaginative partnerships and cross promotions. We scored with summer music campaigns and built momentum for the London 2012 Olympic Games. A key strategic success was strengthening ties with bottling partners and driving growth with key customers. We spent more time in the marketplace, using the insights to act with greater flexibility and get closer to consumers with an adapted brand, package, and price architecture.
In 2011, we continued to execute the strategies of the Bottling Investments Group. Our core focus on top-line growth and aggressive cost management, combined with marketplace execution, operational excellence, and productivity, generated strong performance. We grew unit case volume 3% on a comparable basis after adjusting for the impact of the sale of our Norway and Sweden bottling operations. However, on a reported basis, unit case volume was even with the prior year. We continued to focus on prudent capital planning to ensure we have the capacity to meet sales growth. Our focus on improving environmental metrics has resulted in significant positive changes, especially in energy and water usage. In addition, we opened more than 450,000 new outlets, placed an incremental 150,000 new coolers, and continued building market segmentation capabilities to ensure consumers continue to have access to our brands for all occasions, in the right packages, at the right price. We remained focused on the implementation of QRS Colas, our end-to-end bottler operating system that enables the development of standard tools, data, and systems geared toward enhancing sales force effectiveness.

3. Which of these situations most resembles the situation described in this passage?
Explanation
Just as XYZ Cola did, the mutant ants become the strongest most capable ants in their species. XYZ leveled the competition. Choice b is incorrect because a blockbuster film is much larger than a miniseries, which is generally less successful. Choice c is incorrect because we read that ABC Soda has expanded to include other types of beverages; choice d is incorrect for the same reason.
Answer: A
