这道阅读填空题考察了学生对上下文的理解和词汇的应用能力。以下是每个空的详细解析：
L (ubiquitous)
解析：根据句意，“Made in China”标签已不再新奇，已经变得“无处不在”（ubiquitous）。这表明“中国制造”标签已经普遍出现在各种商品上。这个词适合表达“普遍的、无处不在的”意思。
M (what)
解析：根据前文提到“中国制造”的标签不再稀奇，下文转折引入了“真正稀奇的”事情，因此应该用“what”来引导下文的内容。此句的意思是“真正新奇的事情是，中国制造的商品带有中国品牌。”
D (so far)
解析：根据句子的时态（现在完成时），可以推测这里需要一个表示“到目前为止”的表达。短语“so far”表示“至今、到目前为止”，在这种时态中使用非常合适。
N (brands)
解析：这句话讨论的是中国企业是否能够建立国际品牌。因此，空格应填“brands”（品牌）以符合上下文的主题。
E (regarded)
解析：根据固定搭配“regard sth. as sth.”（视为），这里应该用“regarded”来表示“被视为某物”。句意是：这些先行企业可能会被看作是某些重要事情的开端。
G (believe)
解析：根据句子的结构，空格后面有宾语从句，因此需要一个动词“believe”来引导它。“Believe”有“相信、认为”的意思，符合句子的上下文。
A (well)
解析：根据固定搭配“as well as”表示“除了……之外”，用来连接并列的概念。此处表示“既有质量，又有竞争力的定价”。
H (increased)
解析：此处描述的是“中国品牌的概念”在国内的关注度，显然随着时间的推移，这种关注度有所增加。因此，填入“increased”表示“增加的”更为合适。
K (state-owned)
解析：根据下文提到的SOEs（国有企业），可以推测此空应填入“state-owned”（国有的），这是SOEs的常见含义，指的是由国家拥有的企业。
J (improved)
解析：根据句子的含义，这些企业想要建立国际品牌，是因为他们相信自己在产品和管理方面已经有了提升。因此，“improved”表示“改进的”符合上下文的意思。
