　　The table above demonstrates clearly that some changes have taken place in terms of the earnings of a European company in

　　2009 and 2010. We can see that it has a steady rise in 1Qrt and 2Qrt from 2009 to 2010, but it has a significant rise in 3Qrt and 4Qrt from 2009 to 2010.

　　It is of no difficulty for us to come up with some possible factors to account for this trend. At the top of list, with the rapid development of our economy and society, the earnings of a European company have been on a rise. In addition, we must admit that the European governments try to support native companies. What is more, a large number of tourists travel to the European countries so that the earnings of European companies are on a significant rise.

　　Taking into account what has been argued, we can come to conclusion that this established trend is positive and therefore acceptable. And I firmly certain that this trend will continue in the years to come.
