VIreading comprehension (20%)

In 1939 two brothers, Mac and Dick McDonald, started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernadino, California. They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a barbecue(烤肉)restaurant, and then another drive-in. But in their new operation, they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this small selection they added one new concept: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.

Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity, for the brothers had developed a strict routine for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks" sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became incredibly popular, particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success untilthey met Ray Kroc.

Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954, when he was selling milk shake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the unique appeal of the brothers" fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise (特许经营)other copies of their restaurants. The agreement struck included the right to duplicate the menu. The equipment, even their red and white buildings with the golden arches(拱门).

Today McDonald"s is really a household name. Its names for its sandwiches have come to mean hamburger in the decades since the day Ray Kroc watched people rush up to order fifteen-cent hamburgers. In 1976, McDonald"s had over $ 1 billion in total sales. Its first twenty-two years is one of the most incredible success stories in modern American business history.

D)Ray Kroc was a good businessman

Passage2

You"re busy filling out the application form for a position you really need; let"s assume you once actually completed a couple of years of college work or even that you completed your degree. Isn"t it tempting to lie just a little, to claim on the form that your diploma represents a Harvard degree? Or that you finished an extra couple of years back at State University?

More and more people are turning to utter deception like this to land their job or to move ahead in their careers, for personnel officers, like most Americans, value degrees from famous schools. A job applicant may have a good education anyway, but he or she assumes that chances of being hired are better with a diploma from a well-known university. Registrars at most well-known colleges say theydeal with deceitful claims like these at the rate of aboutone per week.

Personnel officers do check up on degrees listed on application forms, then. If it turns out that an applicants lying, most colleges are reluctant to accuse the applicant directly. One Ivy League school calls them impostors(骗子); another refers to them asspecial cases. One well-known West Coast school, in perhaps the most delicate phrase of all, says that these claims are made byno such people.

To avoid outright(彻底的)lies, some job-seekers claim that they attended or were associated with a college or university. After carefully checking, a personnel officer may discover that attending means being dismissed after one semester. It may be that being associated with a college means that the job-seeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend. One school that keeps records of false claims says that the practice dates back at least to the turn of the century-that"s when they began keeping records, anyhow.

If you don"t want to lie or even stretch the truth, there are companies that will sell you a phony(假的)diploma. One company, with offices in New York and on the West Coast, will put your name on a diploma from any number of non-existent colleges. The price begins at around twenty dollars for a diploma from Smoot State University.The prices increase rapidly for a degree from the University of Purdue. As there is no Smoot State and the real school in Indiana properly called Purdue University, the prices seem rather high for one sheet of paper.

6. The main idea of this passage is that .

A)employers are checking more closely on applicants now

B)lying about college degrees has become a widespread problem

C)college degrees can now be purchased easily

D)employers are no longer interested in college degrees

7. According to the passage, special cases refer to cases

where .

A)students attend a school only part-time

B) students never attended a school they listed on their application

C)students purchase false degrees from commercial films

D)students attended a famous school

8. We can infer from the passage that .

A)performance is a better judge of ability that a college degree

B)experience is the best teacher

C)past work histories influence personnel officers more than degrees do

D) a degree from a famous school enables an applicant to gain advantage over others in job petition

9. This passage implies that .

A)buying a false degree is not moral

B)personnel officers only consider applicants from famousschools

C)most people lie on applications because they were dismissed from school

D)society should be greatly responsible for lying on applications

10. As used in the first line of the second paragraph, the word utter means .

A)address B)thorough C)ultimate D)decisive

商务英语阅读教程——参考译文

参考译文 Unit 1 参考译文 国际商务的范围 国际商务是指任何类型的跨国商务活动。它可以分为4种类型: 对外贸易、服务贸易、有价证券投资和直接投资。在对外贸易中,国与国之间从事有形货物或商品的进出口业务。进出口贸易构成了世界上大多数国家最基本的国际商务活动。除货物和商品进出口贸易外,国家之间还进行服务贸易,如保险、金融、饭店、咨询、旅游及运输。跨国公司就因在别国提供服务而得到报酬。 国际有价证券投资指在别国进行的金融投资。投资者购买企业股票和长期债券,无非是为了谋求投资回报。有价证券投资者的目标不是控制一个企业,他们随时可按市场行情兑现他们所投的资金。海外直接投资是指在国外建厂或建立销售网络。投资者可购买外国公司现有的全部或部分资产,以控制或部分控制该公司的销售、生产、科研和发展。 从历史的角度来看,国际商务并非新鲜事物。它已有上千年的历史,尽管其形式、方法及重要性在不断演变。在古代,希腊人就在地中海地区从事贸易活动。在历史的长河中,随着复杂的商务技巧不断出现,商业持续不断的发展,从而促进了货物、资源、资金在国家间的流动。工业革命提供了大规模生产方法和大规模市场,从而进一步促进了国际商务的发展。随着工业化水平的提高,对供给、原料、劳动力和运输的需求也日益增大。 20 世纪以来,事实证明,广泛的商务关系覆盖全球。由于商务实体越来越认识到它们的市场是全球性的,而不仅仅在国内,所以产品、资本和人员比以往任何时候都更紧密地联系在一起。随着商务活动的范围跨出国界,银行和金融机构接踵而至,以满足商务活动为世界性的投资和经营所需要的资金。金融市场之间的联系也变得非常纷繁复杂。美国股市的走向和变化会直接影响到世界上其他地区的产权投资市场。 如今,只有目光短浅的商人才会相信,一个企业在本国市场范围内完全可以实现发展和繁荣。国内商界起码必须认识到市场竞争的国际根源,因为竞争的根源一直存在,并且日益成为国内商界的威胁。在世界市场和经济的动态中,这些变化的根源就是世界范围寻求的国际商务活动。 Unit 2 参考译文 维萨卡在中国的发展史 15 年前,中国没有一个人持有维萨卡。今天,中国有三千多万人持有维萨卡。 1993 年我们率先成立了维萨卡北京办事处。此后,我们与中国的金卡工程和其他机构合作,帮助改进中国的银行卡支付系统。为了建设中国第一个电子支付网络,维萨卡国际组织在其运行、构架、技术设备等方面提供了必要的支持和建议,我们对此感到尤为自豪。

商务英语阅读(第二版)王关富unit13privateequity课后答案

Unit 13 The Business of Making Money Exercises 1. Questions on the text: 1)What are the latest developments in private equity in recent years Compared to the 1980s, the targets of today’s private equity groups are much bigger in size. In recent years, the private equity industry has raised record money and its share of mergers and acquisitions has grown massively. The industry has also become a byword for money-making skills but its wealth has also brought many enemies. 2)According to the article, what are the main inconveniences for a company to be a publicly quoted company The main inconveniences for a publicly quoted company include: its executives have to face intrusive media coverage; it has to obey strict and long corporate-governance codes; it also has to face the threats of activist investors and short sellers and the scrutiny by some politicians. 3)What are the main reasons for a company to get listed on a stockmarket Traditionally there are three main reasons to get a company’s share listed on a stockmarket. The first is to raise capital, either to expand the business or to allow the founders to realise their wealth. The second is to help retain staff, who can be offered share options as an incentive to stay and work hard. The third involves prestige; customers, suppliers and potential employees may be reassured (and attracted) by the apparent seal of approval given by a public listing. Meanwhile, being publicly listed gives a company better access to fund investors and retail investors. 4)Why are companies in the Anglo-Saxon economies reluctant to borrow from banks Companies in the Anglo-Saxon economies were reluctant to borrow from banks because their often felt nervous about the possibility of the sudden withdrawal of credit from the banks, due to a change in lending policy, new management or an economic downturn. 5)According to the article, what are the main sources for today’s companies to raise money (including equity capital and debt) Nowadays the main sources for companies to raise money are: first, equity market; second, banks, though much less important than they used to be; third, bond market; fourth, private equity. 6)How do private-equity firms respond to the problems identified by Professor Jensen with regard to public companies Professor Jensen argued that the structure of a public company creates an inherent conflict between investors and the managers they hire to run the business, particularly with regard to the use of free cash flow. He also argued
