Homework: Reading Comprehension

America's biggest carmaker accepted 50 billion dollars in federal aid from the Obama and Bush administrations. People joked that GM meant "Government Motors." Now, General Motors could be on the road to recovery.

The company recorded over two and a half billion dollars in profit in the first half of the year. The government still owns 61 percent of GM as a result of the bailout. Canada is also a shareholder. But now GM plans to sell stock to the public again. GM plans an IPO, an initial public offering of stock, later this year. The company could raise as much as 15 billion dollars.

If the stock price rises, the government could profit from the rescue. But the IPO is risky for the company. The offering will test the willingness of investors to take an equity share in the "new GM."

Buying equity is not like buying bonds. Bonds represent a loan. Equity represents ownership. Investors willing to buy equity shares in a company expect one thing -- growth.

GM believes it can make that happen, in part with a new electric-and-gas hybrid.

GM is also looking overseas. The world's fastest growing car markets are in developing nations. GM is now selling more cars in China than in the United States. GM still leads the American market, though Toyota is now the biggest car company in the world.

Question:

According to the article, which description about the GM is NOT correct?

A. GM recorded over 2.5 billion dollars in profit in the first half of the year.

B. The government still owns 61 percent of GM as a result of the bailout.

C. GM has already raised as much as 15 billion dollars last year.

D. Toyota is still the biggest car company in the world now.
