Passage 1
Being grateful is an important philosophy of life and a great wisdom. It
is impossible for anyone to be lucky and successful all the time so long as he
lives in the world. We should learn how to face failure or misfortune
bravely and generously and to try to deal with it. If so, should we complain
about our life and become frustrated and disappointed ever since then or
should we be grateful for our life, raise again ourselves after a fall? William Thackeray, a famous British writer, said, "Life is a mirror. When you
smile in front of it, it will also smile and so will it when you cry to it. " If
you are grateful to life, it will bring you shining sunlight. If you always complain about everything, you may own nothing in the end. When we are successful, we can surely have many reasons for being grateful, but we
hav.e only one excuse to show ungratefulness if we fail.
I think we should even be grateful to 'J.ife whenever we are unsuccessful or unlucky. Only by doing this can we find our weakness and shortcomings when we fail. We can also get relief and warmth when we are unlucky.
This can help us find our courage to overcome the difficulties we may face,
and receive great impetus to move on. We should treat our frustration and misfortune in our life in the other way. We should be grateful all the time
and keep having a healthy attitude to our life forever, keep having perfect characters and enterprising spirit. Being grateful is not only a kind of comfort, not an escape from life and nor thinking of winning in spirit like
Ah Q. Being grateful is a way to sing for our life which comes just from our love and hope.
Passage 2
Over the past 27 years, China-US trade increased by 85 folds. America has become Chinas second largest trading partner. China has become America's third largest trading partner. Over the past five years since China's accession to the WTO, US export to China witnessed the fastest growing period, with an average annual growth 4. 9 times that to the globe. US export to China in
2005 was up 118% compared to that in 2001, much higher than the growth
rate of US export to other major markets. China has jumped from being 9th largest export market for the US to 4th largest, becoming a major driving
force for US export growth. In the first 10 months of this year, US export
to China reached nearly US $ 50 billion, exceeding last year's total export,
with an increase of 24%. If this growth momentum could sustain, China is
going to be the 3rd largest export market for the US in 2007.
At present, China has become one of the major overseas profit sources for US. companies. In 2005, US companies in China made about US $ 9. 7 billion in profit.

Passage 2
当年来美国定居的人大多数都很穷，他们所到的国家是一片荒野。他们
得清除树木、垦荒造田、开矿、建造房屋、商店和公共建筑。每一个人都必须参与建设并感到至高无上的光荣。人们对体力劳动非常看重。到后来，靠脑力
劳动在工商业界获得成功的人逐渐成为人们仰慕的对象，有一段时间人们似
乎忘记了体力劳动的美德。不过现在美国有一个希奇的现象：一方面人们为
上升到不再需要靠体力劳动谋生的地位而感到骄傲，另一方面却又对能用自
己的双手做成一件事情而感到由衷地高兴。

Part II Translate the following passages into Chinese.
Passage 1
Advertising is a very big business these days. Billions of dollars are spent ev-
ery year to persuade customers to buy one brand of product rather than another.
We are all exposed to such advertisements every day and their effect on us cannot
be denied. While it is true that some advertisements do provide useful information
about new products, I believe that their primary effect is to encourage people to
buy things that they don' t really need.
First of all, most advertising does not introduce a brand-new product. In-
stead, it is designed to persuade consumers that one company's product is superior
to that of another company. Second, when a product is new, the advertising is
often designed to create demand for it. In other words, its goal is to convince 19o-
tential buyers that this new product is really necessary, whether or not it actually
is. Third, many advertisements are image ads, designed to sell people luxury
products. The ads imply that by buying such products the consumer will gain
something else such as happiness, respect or love. These ads not only try to seU
things that people do not really need, but promise something that cannot be
bought. Finally, if there is new information about a product or development,
people will hear about it through word of mouth, and in my opinion, this is a
more reliable source of information.
While it can be argued that advertising is sometimes useful to consumers who
may want to compare different brands, I believe its overall effect is to get people
to buy things that they don't need. That is not to say that the advertisements are
deceptive. They are simply designed to create a need for the product among con-
sumers. Therefore, we should all look at advertisements with a critical eye in or-
der to avoid buying things that are not necessary.
Passage 2
The objective of logistics system is to minimize relevant logistics costs while
delivering maximum customer service. Recently, firms have begun to realize that
logistics costs are also dependent on their relationship with suppliers, carriers,
and customers. This has led to the practice of forming "strategic alliances" be-
tween buyers, sellers and the transportation system that connects them. For ex-
ample, we noted earlier that Target stores eliminated $ 400 million worth of in-
ventory from its system while maintaining 99 percent of its products in stock.
Target was not able to accomplish this alone-it needed the cooperation of suppliers
and carriers to set up special procedures allowing more frequent deliveries of
smaller shipments at scheduled times. Shipments must be arranged and labeled in
a specific way, so they can be moved through the distribution center with a mini-
mum of re-handling. In some cases shipments may be delivered directly to the re-
tail store, bypassing the distribution center.
Such strategic alliances are often supported by sophisticated information sys一
tems that invove shared databases of customer information and electronic data interchange,computer linked in two different firms to transmit documents such as purchase orders, bills of landing, and invoices.

Passage 1
国际货币基金组织的主要作用是帮助成员国解决国际收支平衡问题，从
而防止发生货币危机。例如，一个小国可能遇到暴风雨袭击，使其主要出口农作物大量减产。由于出口货物大量短缺，该国所得到的外汇就会比往常少得多，结果就会出现国际收支逆差。这个国家必要的进口货物的支付就可能发生困难，因为国家储备中无法拿出足够的外汇。在没有外援的情况下，可能有两种办法来解决支付问题：由于国际需求减少，它可以让本国货币贬值；它也可以采用外汇管制的办法，防止汇率下跌。然而这两种办法似乎都很过激，因Passage 2

Part II. Translate the following passages into Chinese. Passage 1 Savings provide one way to take care of financial losses. But savings are not the answer to large losses. The best way to guard against large financial losses is through insurance. Over 4,800 companies in the United States are in the business of providing insurance protection. These businesses are called insurance companies. Because most insurance companies operate on a big scale, they provide a way for large numbers of people to share their losses. Insurance can provide protection against almost any kind of loss. Singers may insure their voices. Photographers may insure their negatives. The owner of a home freezer may insure against food loss in case of a power failure. A business owner can insure his or her place of business. A business owner can also insure against a loss of profits during a shutdown following a fire or damaging accident. Like all private firms, insurance companies must charge enough for protection to pay their operating costs and make a profit. The main factor affecting the price of insurance, however, is the amount of risk involved. The more risk an insurance company assumes for a policyholder, the higher the premium. An insurance company must collect enough money from all its policyholders to pay the claims of those who have

Passage 1 Most Americans believe someone isn’t grown up until age 26, probably with a completed education, a full-time job, a family to support and financial independence, a survey said. But they also believe that becoming an official grown-up is a process that takes five years from about the age of 20, concluded the report from the University of Chicago’s National Opinion Research Center. The findings were based on a representative sample of 1398 people over age 18. The poll found the following ages at which people expect the transitions to grown-up status to be completed: age 20.9 self-supporting; 21.1 no longer living with parents; 21.2 full-time job; 22.3 education complete; 24.5 being able to support a family financially; 25.7 married; and 26.2 having a child. “There is a large degree of consensus across social groups on the relative importance of the seven transitions,” said Tom Smith, director of the survey. The only notable pattern of differences is on views about supporting a family, having a child and g etting married. “Older adults and the widowed and married rate these as more important than younger adults and the never-married do,” he added. “This probably reflects in large part a shift in values across generations away from traditional family values.” The most valued step toward reaching adulthood, the survey found, was completing an education, followed by full-time employment, supporting a family, financial independence, living independently of parents, marriage and parenthood.

This takes self-discipline, and might require constructing a budget, but if you ever want to get to a point where you can afford all the little niceties in life, you need to make it happen. Plan for the future. I’ve been where you are, and I know that “the future” seems like it’s a million miles away. Do yourself a favor. Sit down and define short, intermediate, and long-term goals and then put together a plan for getting there. It’s not easy, and you probably won’t get it right at first but once you do this, you’ll have something concrete to work from (and to modify in the future). Start small and work your way up. Be patient. Building a solid financial foundation takes time. Don’t look for shortcuts or try to strike it rich overnight wit h the latest hot investment tip. Likewise, don’t make major financial decisions wi thout fully considering the ramifications. This isn’t to say that you should be paralyzed fear. Rather, you need to do your homework. Turn those unknowns into knowns, and
