Small Businesses Make Big

九年级期末复习阅读理解训练一、阅读单选Buying Is Doing?How important is shopping to you? How much time do you spend buying things? And how much time do you spend organizing these things in your home? In the future, how much time will you spend in movie theaters, at amusement parks, at shopping malls, or at convenience stores? When you add it all up, you will robably see you spend a lot of your life consuming (消费) things. Consuming products is not necessarily bad. However, if we spend too much time doing it, we should look at it carefully.Imagine that you have a week off from school. You don't have to go to class. However, in this week, you cannot spend any money—no shopping, no movies, no eating out. How would you spend your time? What things would bring you happiness? Perhaps you would take a walk with your best friend. Perhaps you would help a child read. Or you might spend time with your family.When we look back, it is likely that non-consuming experiences like these will be our most important memories. Why? Non-consuming activities are active, not passive. They don't come in a package. You make the experience yourself. For example, each person who reads to a child will have a different experience. The experience changes with the reader, the child, and the book. Similarly，when you have a conversation with a friend, you are actively creating an experience. The conversation that you have with your friend cannot be experienced or recreated by anyone else. However, if you watch a movie with a friend, you will each have a packaged experience. It requires no action and little interaction between the two of you.The environment we live in encourages us to have packaged experiences. We feel that we must consume because we believe that buying is doing. However, we can start a personal revolution(变革) against consumerism. How? By consuming less. We can ask ourselves what experiences bring us the greatest satisfaction. Then we can organize our lives so that we have more of those kinds of experiences.1．If consuming products takes too much time, we should_______.A．spend less money B．think about it carefullyC．organize our things2．According to the passage, the writer believes that_________.A．we can say no to consumerism by consuming lessB．buying things can bring us the greatest satisfactionC．the environment seldom influences our shopping choices3．The word “those kinds of experiences” in the last sentence means________.A．consuming experiencesB．Non-consuming experiencesC．Experiences that bring us great satisfaction4．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A．To introduce some ways of enjoying our spare time.B．To encourage people to have more active experiences.C．To explain reasons behind people's shopping behavior.In a village in Uganda, a woman named Fatima ran a small store. She sold food and other useful items. However, she had trouble making enough money to keep the shelves stocked （储存的）. To stay in business, Fatima got a microfinance loan—a small total of money from a person in another country. It was just enough for her to buy a cell phone. She let villagers make calls using her phone and charged them some money for each call. This helped her make enough money to keep her shelves stocked with items. Fatima then used the money to send her children to school and improved their lives, as well as her own.Microfinance is the practice of giving small loans to people in need. Most microfinance loans are for less than two hundred dollars. The loans are used to start or enlarge a small business, such as catching fish, raising chickens or selling produce. Lenders are willing to make these loans because most of the people who receive them are very likely （可能的）to repay the loans.Microfinance loans are important for several reasons. The businesses that these loans support often provide needed services or goods to their communities. Also, many of the people who receive microfinance loans cannot get money any other way. Although they have to pay a rate （比率）of interest on the money they borrow, the rate is lower than if they borrowed from a local moneylender.It doesn’t seem like such a small total of money could make a big difference, but microfinance loans have been shown to help improve some people's lives and put new life into the communities like Fatima's.5．Why did Fatima get a microfinance loan?A．To manage her small store.B．To buy a cell phone for her neighborC．To help the villagers make money.D．To afford her children's education.6．What can we learn about microfinance?A．It supports poor people for free.B．It offers big loans to people in need.C．It helps small businesses a lot.D．It provides needed goods for local people.7．What does the underlined word " interest " in Paragraph 3 probably mean in Chinese?A．盈利B．红利C．利润D．利息8．From the text, we can infer （推断出）that __________________.A．Fatima is the richest woman in her communityB．Few people in Fatima's village have cell phonesC．Microfinance will provide money for big companiesD．Most borrowers can hardly repay the loans9．What would be the best title for the text?A．A Little Can Go a Long WayB．Small Businesses Make a Big DifferenceC．A Cell Phone Brings a Better LifeD．Microfinance Loans Build a New WorldMore and more children have to stay at home alone today. It is important for them to know how to keep themselves safe when they are at home alone. If you are one of them, you should remember the following rules:Arrive your homeWhen you come home, you should check the doors and windows to see if they are broken.★If everything is OK, go inside and lock the door quickly. Remember: never leave your key in the lock and keep the door always closed.★If something seems strange, or someone may be in the house, you should go to your neighbor’s house and call the police and your parents.Answer the doorIn some families, the rule is not to answer the door, but I think ignoring（忽视）the doorbell is not a good idea because sometimes bad people ring doorbells to see if anyone’s at home.★If someone knocks at the door, you should identify the visitor before you open the door. Are they your parents’ friends or relatives? Or are they strangers who you never know?★You can ask, “Yes, who is that?” looking through the keyhole to find out who it is and what he or she wants. If you don’t know the person very well, don’t open the door or give out any information about your family.★If you know the person or if the person says your parents asked him or her to stop by, call your parents and check.★If the person at the door has come to deliver a package or make a repair and you were not told to expect it, do not let him or her in. If you are expecting a delivery or repair person, ask him or her to slip an ID card under the door.★If the visitor wants to speak to your parents , you should say “Mum’s having a shower ”or “Dad’s having a sleep” and offer to take a message.10．The passage is for_________.A．parents B．children C．the old D．the sick11．What should you do first when you come home?A．Knock the door quickly.B．Go to the neighbor’s house.C．Check the doors and windows.D．Call your family and tell them you are at home.12．The underlined word “ identify ” probably means_______.A．ask where the visitors come from B．see whether you know the visitorC．find out how old the visitor is D．make sure the visitor knows you13．What is the purpose of the last rule in the passage?A．Not to let the visitor see your parents.B．Not to let your parents know someone is at the door.C．Not to trouble your parents when are busy.D．Not to let the visitor know you are at home alone.Nowadays，phone calls and messages help us make regular contact(联系) with others.It means that we seldom write letters now.But a TV show，Letters Alive(《见字如面》)，is bringing back this old habit.Letters Alive invites famous actors and actresses，but there are not funny jokes or different competitions.Instead，it's just one person walking up to a microphone and reading a letter.The letters were written by people from different times in history.For example，in one episode(集)，they read a letter written by famous writer Xiao Hong to her younger brother in 1941.The letter shows that Xiao Hong missed her brother so much and had great hopes for his future.“Every letter opens another world for us，” according to Guan Zhengwen，the director of the TV show.“It seems that we can experience the real lives and feelings of the writers.” Since its first episode on Dec.5，Letters Alive has been widely praised.Many audiences said that it has provided a breath of fresh air to today's TV shows.Besides Letters Alive，some other cultural TV shows have also been well received by Chinese audiences.They include the Chinese Poetry Competition，a traditional Chinese poetry competition and Readers，a program that invites people to read poems and articles they like or wrote.They suggest that cultural values and true feelings are becoming our interest.14．Letters Alive，a TV show，invites famous people to ________.A．tell audiences jokesB．read and share lettersC．walk up to a microphone to singD．enter different competitions15．According to the passage，which sentence is RIGHT?A．We can experience the real lives and feelings of the writers by reading letters.B．Xiao Hong missed her brother but had no hope for his future.C．Letters Alive is not popular enough to attract audiences.D．Chinese Poetry Conference invites people to read poems and articles.16．How many cultural TV shows are mentioned in this passage?A．One.B．Two.C．Three.D．Four.17．Chinese audiences ________ these cultural TV shows.A．like B．dislikeC．show no interest in D．doubt about18．What is the best title for the passage?A．Phones Have Taken the Place of LettersB．Welcome to Cultural TV ShowsC．Letters Encourage Us to CommunicateD．Cultural TV Shows Become Popular AgainMotivated (有内驱力的)or Overachieving?Everyone has the occasional classmate who hands in his work ahead of time with really beautiful handwriting. Some teachers may cheerfully get the homework by saying "Of course you did it early.I'm sure you've done a good job!" Some teachers may feel annoyed because "The deadline is not until next Friday." Behind this student's back are tons of whispers from his classmates,"Ugh, he is such an overachiever and it's so annoying ..."If you ask the same student to explain his behavior, he probably says that he is simply "motivated". Such students refuse to call themselves overachievers but prefer "motivated" instead. They want to shy away from the unpleasant term "overachiever" but choose to embrace the word"motivated" .Why is the term "overachiever" used as an insult (侮辱)? Do we not all work hard to achieve our goals? Why does the "motivated" student not proudly call himself an "overachiever" ?In my personal experience, being called an overachiever in front of my classmates is not pleasant at all. The word is often connected with an unkind smile or sometimes a hint ofjealousy (嫉妒)."Overachiever" carries the implied (暗指的) sense which "over" lends it - you have done too much and you have gone too far. Anyway, it is beyond the proper degree and just annoying to those students who refuse to put in the effort themselves and get unhappy with you for doing so.A student would rather think of himself as an excellent student and it is motivation that drives him to do his best. What is the implied meaning of "motivated" ? Connected with positive words like willpower, spirit and determination, the "motivated" student would appear to be competing in an event of the brain Olympics.Although there are differences in their implications, the student who calls himself "motivated" could actually be a secret overachiever, going over the top for all his work; while the "overachiever" is nothing more than a motivated student, driven by the simple desire to do well and willing to put in time and effort. In fact, the choice lies within the student: to overachieve or not to overachieve; to find the motivation to do well and be driven by it, or to sit back and blame others for overachieving to hide his inability to achieve.19．According to the passage, overachieversA．are popular with their classmates B．hand in homework ahead of timeC．are much loved by their teachers D．look down on others for being slow20．The word "embrace" in Paragraph 2 probably means "_ ".A．understand B．explain C．doubt D．accept21．What can we learn from the passage?A．Teachers expect students to benefit from their extra work.B．Students compete with each other to become overachievers.C．Classmates may laugh at overachievers to hide their inability to achieve.D．The writer has some pleasant experiences of being called an overachiever.22．The writer probably agrees tahatA．students shouldn't be encouraged to be overachieversB．students without motivation will become overachieversC．motivated students make better progress than overachieversD．motivated students have something in common with overachieversCould the students from less developed areas in central and western China get the same educational chances as those in big cities in the east? Could the children in poor rural (农村) areas develop as well as those in rich cities? Maybe the answers were “No” in the past. But now, China is trying to change the situation.In order to help rural students grow taller and stronger, China’s Nutrition (营养) Improvement Program started in 2011. According to the program, a lot more money was spent improving students’ meals. More than 36 million students from 134,000 primary and junior high schools in poor rural areas have benefited from the program. They are provided with healthy food like eggs and milk from Monday to Friday at school. And the result of a survey shows that the students in those areas are much taller and stronger than before.It is true that there were differences between less developed areas and developed areas in education before. Recently, The Guideline for Popularizing High School Education (2017-2020) has come out. According to the guideline, above 90% students from all over the country will go to high schools by 2020. What’s more, the schools in central and western areas will get more support to improve their education.Students from rural and poor areas also get more chances to receive higher education. A special college program makes it possible for more students from those areas to go to key (重点的) colleges and universities. The number will be increased by 10% in 2017.With the guideline and the programs, we can expect a fairer and more balanced (均衡的) education in the future.23．The number of 134,000 in Paragraph 2 is the number of _______ in poor rural areas.A．the key schools B．the poor studentsC．the key colleges and universities D．the primary and junior high schools24．The underlined word “benefited” in Paragraph 2 means _______ in Chinese.A．逃离B．获益C．受害D．赚钱25．If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best?(①=Para.(自然段) 1②=Para. 2③=Para. 3④=Para. 4⑤=Para. 5)A．①②;③④;⑤B．①;②③;④⑤C．①;②③④;⑤D．①②;③;④⑤26．After reading the passage, we can infer(推断) that ________.A．Liu Xi, a student from Chongqing, can go to any high school if she wants toB．Li Mei, a student from a western rural school, can get a bag of milk every dayC．Hu Jia, a 12-year-old rural student, will more easily receive high school educationD．Han Lei, a student from Beijing, will have few chances to go to key universitiesAccording to a study by some organizations, more than half of the things in the world are made in China. And these things are all about people's everyday life.In order to truly understand why so many things are made in China, you have to understand the history. China is one of the greatest countries with rich civilization (文明) on the earth for thousands of years. Chinese people have made a lot of things very smartly. Usually it would take Westerners and other foreigners 100 more years to find out how to make them. They have clever minds and work hard, so you can see why so many things are made in China.If you study Goldman Sach’s report on the future, you will see that China will take charge of (控制）a quarter of the world's GDP in the near future. Although some big companies are moving to other countries from China, China is making more products with fine quality, as well as Japan, the USA and Europe. In 20 years or so, people will not look for a Ferrari, but a Chinese car that no one has heard of yet.China isn't just making products. It's helping people in the world live better.27．According to the study, of the things in the world are made in China.A．about 15%B．less than 25%C．over 50%D．over 75%28．What does the underlined word “They” refer to?A．Westerners.B．The Chinese.C．Other foreigners.D．The Japanese.29．The underlined word “quality” means “ ” in Chinese.A．质量B．名声C．影响D．背景30．What makes China a great country in the world for thousands of years?A．Its large area.B．Its large population.C．Its fine products.D．Its rich civilization.31．What can we learn from the third paragraph?A．China has taken charge of a quarter of the world's GDP.B．China is producing more products with fine quality.C．More and more big companies are moving to China.D．Ferrari cars will be found everywhere in China in the future.The Plain of Jars(石缸平原)is a great man­made wonder(奇观)in Laos，a country in southeast Asia.It is made up of thousands of stone jars.More than 90 jar sites have been found there.Each site has from 1 to 400 stone jars.The jars come in different sizes from 1 to 3 meters tall.Scientists have long been perplexed by their original(最初的)use.Not long ago，scientists found ancient things and burial practices at the Plain of Jars.“This will be the first major effort since the 1930s to try to understand the purpose of the jars and who created them.”Dougald O'Reilly from the Australian National University said.“The jars are empty now，but it is possible that they were once used to hold bodies.”Only a few simple objects，such as a handful of glass beads(玻璃珠)，have been found at the burial sites.And scientists think they are from about 500 or 600 BC to 550 AD．An Australia­Laos research team spent a month collecting data(资料)at the site.O'Reilly said，“Though the stone jars remain a mystery，I hope a better understanding of the Plain of Jars will help have it listed as a World Heritage site(世界遗产保护区)．”32．The Plain of Jars is in ________．A．Asia B．Europe C．America D．Australia33．What do we know about the jars?A．They are of the same size.B．They were used for holding water.C．They are all made of stones.D．All the sites have the same number of jars.34．The underlined word “perplexed ”means “ ________ ” in Chinese.

In recent years, the development of e-commerce has been rapid and it has become an integral part of our daily lives. There are several reasons why I consider e-commerce to be a professional field worthy of attention.Firstly, e-commerce provides convenience and accessibility to both consumers and businesses. With just a few clicks, consumers can browse and purchase a wide range of products from the comfort of their own homes. This eliminates the need to physically visit a store and saves time and effort. For businesses, e-commerce allows them to reach a larger customer base and expand their market beyond geographical boundaries. This opens up new opportunitiesfor growth and profitability.Secondly, e-commerce offers a platform for small businesses and entrepreneurs to thrive. Unlike traditional brick-and-mortar stores, setting up an online store requires lower initial investment and overhead costs. This means that individuals with limited resources can start their own businesses and compete with established players in the market. The success stories of online retailers like Amazon and Alibaba serve as inspiration for aspiring entrepreneurs.Furthermore, e-commerce promotes innovation and technological advancements. As the field continues to evolve, new technologies and business models emerge. For example, the rise of mobile e-commerce has revolutionized the way we shop, with mobile apps and responsive websites providing seamless shopping experiences. Additionally, the use of artificial intelligence and big data analytics in e-commerce has enabled personalized recommendations and targeted marketing strategies. These innovations not only enhance the customer experience but also drive industry growth.In conclusion, e-commerce is a dynamic and promising field that offers numerous benefits. Its convenience, accessibility, and opportunities for small businesses make it a professional field worth exploring. Moreover, the constant innovation and technological advancements in e-commerce ensure its continuous growth and relevance in today's digital age.中文回答：电子商务，也称为电子商务，指的是通过互联网进行商品和服务的买卖。

马云联合国英文演讲：梦想还是要有的，万一实现了呢！马云在联合国创变者演讲《机会在有人抱怨的地方》：Small is beautiful，small is powerful.梦想还是要有的，万一实现了呢！Thank you very much! I am so humbled and honored to be here tonight. I never thought that I would have a chance in my life to be in the United Nations.I learned my English by myself when I was 12 years old, for whatever reasons, I don't know. I just felt in love with this language. Every morning from 5 o'clock I rode a bicycle for 40 minutes, to the Hangzhou Hotel looking for foreign tourists to teach me English. I showed them around the city. They taught me English. Since then, I began to have a habit. You should use your own brain to think about it, just one more minute. When everything about it is yes, wait one minute. When everybody says no, wait for one minute. Think about it carefully. Cause if you look at the world from a different way, you may do it in a different way.And tonight, I'm so honored to be inspired by all the game changer partners. By listening to their stories, I know there are so many things I should do. I can do better. There are so many things. And I think that here today I not only represent myself, but represent all the small guys, all the small business that I've been working with. In 1995 when I left my university, I told my president of university that 'I'm going to be an entrepreneur, do the internet.' He said, 'What is Internet?' I said, 'I don't know.' And he listened to me for two hours and said, 'Jack. I know you want to do something. I don't know what you do. But 10 years later, if you want to be back, please be back.' I said, 'Ok, ten years later,I will do that.'I know as a teacher as I said, teachers always believe the future. You believe that knowledge can change people's lives. You believe and you hope that your studenets are better than you are. Students are the best products. Today, I am not a teacher, but I got 'CEO' in the 'chief education officer' of my school. I know that my colleagues don't like me because I talk a lot. But I say, I do the talk, you do the work. When I started my business, it's so difficult to be a small business owner in China. It took me five months to borrow 500 dollars. But I still failed. No chance. And I don't have any idea to run a business. And when I go to register a company, called the Internet. The register office told me, 'No, there is no such a word Internet in the dictionary. How can you register the 'Internet'?' You have to register another name. So he advised me to use 'Computer consulting firm'. But I had no idea about what is computer.So my first company was Hangzhou Hope Computer Consulting Firm. It was tough without knowing anything about technology, without knowing anything about the computer. In the past fifteen years, I called myself a blind man riding on the back of a blind tiger. But those experts riding on the horses all failed. We survived. Because we worried about the future. We believed in the future. We chanegd ourselves. We never complained about others. And we believe one thing, I told the teacher in my apartment, 'We have to prove ourselves, because if we can be successful, 80% of the yong people can be successful. 'We don't have a rich father. We have no powerful uncle. We did not get one dollar from the government. We did not get one dollar from the back. We started from zero. So we have to workhard. It's not to prove ourselves, but to prove our generation, prove the Internet power. So this is what I want to share with young people. And the other thing I believe is small is beautiful. If nobody helps the small guys, we can use the Internet to help the small guys. Multi-national companies were taken good care of by the Wall Street. Only small businesses had nobody to help them. If we create value for them, then we will succeed.Our philosophy is that if you can help others be successful, you will be successful. I'm a person who beleive the future, believe young people, believe innovation. And today I want to say one thing as the General Secretary said, the world is full of problems. T oday, the world is full of complaints. I complained when I was 20 years old. There are Microsoft, IBM, CISCO. They are all big companies. We are helpless because they are too big. We complained. But now I never complain. I say I am a big guy too. I want to tell young people, where most people complain where the opportunity is. Some people complain and some people start to change themselves, changing tohers. Where the opportunities are is where the complaints are. Where the trouble, where the opportunities. I always believe it, and this is how we go through.The last but very important, I'm going to give a a T-shirt. Another T-shirt, right? This is a special T-shirt of Alibaba IPO. It's all made by small guys. And this is a small guy. And small is beautiful, small is powerful. But in this T-shirt, very few people know that we have a secret code of Alibaba's success. Just like the open sesame, there's a secret for Alibaba. The secret code for everybody is 'Keep your dream alive. Because it might come true someday.' This is what the secret code is. Thank you very much.。

Ladies and Gentlemen,Good morning/afternoon/evening! It is a great honor to stand before you today and share my thoughts on embracing challenges and dreaming big. My name is马云, and I am the founder of Alibaba Group, a company that started from a small room in Hangzhou and has grown to become one of the largest e-commerce platforms in the world. Today, I want to talk about the journey that led me here, the lessons I've learned, and the dreams that drive us forward.First and foremost, let me tell you a little about my background. I was born in 1964 in a small village in Zhejiang Province, China. Growing up, I was not a good student by traditional standards. I was notparticularly interested in academics, and I often failed exams. However, I had a passion for reading, especially books about business and entrepreneurship. These books fueled my imagination and gave me the courage to dream big.My journey began in 1995 when I traveled to the United States to visit Silicon Valley. I was amazed by the technology and innovation I saw there. Back in China, I felt that there was a huge gap between the developed world and our country. I believed that if I could help Chinese businesses go global, I could contribute to the development of our nation.So, I came back to China with a dream in my heart. I wanted to create a platform that would enable small businesses to reach a global audience.I started Alibaba with a group of friends in a small apartment in Hangzhou. We had no money, no experience, and no technology. But we had a dream and a vision.The first few years were incredibly challenging. We faced numerous obstacles, from financial difficulties to competition from established players. But we never gave up. We believed in our vision and were determined to make it a reality. We worked hard, learned from our mistakes, and kept moving forward.One of the key lessons I learned during this journey is that challenges are not obstacles; they are opportunities. When we face challenges, we have the chance to grow, to learn, and to innovate. It is our response to these challenges that defines us.Another important lesson is the power of collaboration. We were a small team with limited resources, but we managed to create something big because we worked together. We shared our dreams, supported each other, and believed in the power of teamwork. We learned that when we collaborate, we can achieve more than we ever imagined.As we grew, we faced even bigger challenges. We had to compete with global giants like eBay and Amazon. We had to adapt to changing market conditions and technology advancements. But we never lost sight of our vision. We kept innovating, keeping our customers at the heart of everything we did.Today, Alibaba Group has over 80,000 employees and operates in more than 200 countries and regions. We have become a symbol of Chinese innovation and entrepreneurship. But our journey is far from over. We still have many challenges ahead, and we must continue to dream big.So, how do we dream big? Here are a few tips:1. Believe in yourself: Have confidence in your abilities and your vision. Trust that you can achieve your goals.2. Be persistent: Don't give up when faced with challenges. Keep moving forward, even if it seems impossible.3. Surround yourself with talented people: Find individuals who share your vision and complement your strengths. Collaborate with them to achieve your goals.4. Be innovative: Never stop learning and adapting. Embrace new technologies and ideas to stay ahead of the curve.5. Focus on customers: Always put your customers first. Understand their needs and deliver exceptional value.6. Have a long-term vision: Think about the future and the impact you want to make. Stay committed to your long-term goals.As we look to the future, I believe that technology will play a crucial role in shaping our world. The internet has already transformed the way we communicate, work, and live. In the coming years, we will see even more incredible advancements in artificial intelligence, blockchain, and other emerging technologies.At Alibaba, we are committed to using technology to create a more inclusive and sustainable future. We want to empower small businesses, support entrepreneurs, and make a positive impact on society.In conclusion, my message to you today is simple: Embrace challenges, dream big, and never stop believing in yourself. The world is full of opportunities, and with hard work, determination, and a bit of luck, you can achieve your dreams.Thank you for listening. I look forward to seeing what the future holds and to being a part of it. Together, let's create a world where everyone has the chance to succeed and to make a difference.Godspeed!---Note: This speech is a fictional creation based on the life and entrepreneurial spirit of马云.

为什么人们倾向大公司工作英语作文全文共3篇示例，供读者参考篇1Why People Prefer to Work for Large CompaniesIn today's fast-paced and competitive job market, many individuals are faced with the decision of whether to work for a large corporation or a small business. While both types of companies offer their own set of advantages and disadvantages, there are several reasons why people tend to gravitate towards large companies for employment. In this essay, we will explore the various factors that influence this preference.One of the primary reasons why people choose to work for large companies is the perceived sense of stability and job security that they offer. Large corporations are often viewed as being more financially secure and less likely to go out of business compared to smaller companies. This sense of stability can provide employees with peace of mind knowing that their job is safe and their career prospects are secure.Additionally, large companies typically offer more competitive salaries and benefits compared to small businesses.Due to their larger budgets and resources, big corporations are able to provide their employees with higher wages, better healthcare coverage, retirement plans, and other perks. This can be a significant factor for individuals who are looking for a job that offers financial security and attractive compensation packages.Furthermore, working for a large company often presents more opportunities for career advancement and professional growth. With multiple departments, branches, and divisions, big corporations provide employees with a wider range of career paths to explore and opportunities to move up the corporate ladder. This can be appealing to individuals who are ambitious and seeking to climb the ranks within a company.Moreover, large companies tend to have a stronger brand reputation and greater visibility in the market. Working for a well-known and respected company can enhance an individual's professional reputation and open doors to more networking opportunities and industry connections. This can be advantageous for individuals who are looking to build a strong professional network and gain exposure in their field.In addition to these factors, large companies also tend to offer better training and development programs for theiremployees. With larger budgets allocated for training and development, big corporations invest more in providing their staff with the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in their roles. This can be beneficial for individuals who are looking to acquire new skills, enhance their expertise, and stay competitive in the job market.Despite the numerous advantages of working for a large company, there are also drawbacks that should be considered. For example, big corporations can be hierarchical and bureaucratic, leading to slower decision-making processes and less autonomy for employees.

奥巴马讲话各国面对的经济挑战3David Muir.Q Thank you, Mr. President. I’m curious what you would say to Americans back home who’ve watched their 401(k)s recover largely when the bailout seemed a certainty, and then this week with the brand new political tumult 1 in Greece, watched themselves lose essentially 2 what they had gained back. You mentioned you’re confident in the bailout plan. Are you confident this will actually happen, and if so, that it will work?PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, first of all, if you’re talking about the movements of the U.S. stock market, the stock market was down when I first took office and the first few months I was in office about 3,000 points lower than it is now. So nothing has happened in the last two weeks that would suggest that somehow people’s 401(k)s have been affected 3 the way you describe.Am I confident that this will work? I think that there’s more work to do. I think there are going to be some ups and downs along the way. But I am confident that the key players in Europe -- the European political leadership -- understandshow much of a stake they have in making sure that this crisis is resolved, that the eurozone remains 4 intact（完整的） , and I think that they are going to do what's necessary in order to make that happen.Now, let's recognize how difficult this is. I have sympathy for my European counterparts. We saw how difficult it was for us to save the financial system back in the United States. It did not do wonders for anybody's political standing 5 , because people's general attitude is, you know what, if the financial sector 6 is behaving recklessly or not making good decisions, other folks shouldn't have to suffer for it.You layer on top of that the fact that you're negotiating with multiple parliaments, a European parliament, a European Commission -- I mean, there are just a lot of institutions here in Europe. And I think several -- I'm not sure whether it was Sarkozy or Merkel or Barroso or somebody, they joked with me that I'd gotten a crash course in European politics over the last several days. And there are a lot of meetings here in Europe as well. So trying to coordinate 7 all those different interests is laborious 8 （勤劳的） , it's time consuming, but I think they're going to get there.What is also positive is -- if there's a silver lining 9 in thiswhole process, it's the fact that I think European leaders recognize that there are some structural 10 reforms, institutional modifications 11 they need to make if Europe and the eurozone is to be as effective as they want it to be.I think that what this has exposed is that if you have a single currency but you haven't worked out all the institutional coordination 12 and relationships between countries on the fiscal 13 side, on the monetary 14 side, that that creates additional vulnerabilities. And there's a commitment on the part of European leaders, I think, to examine thoseissues. But those are long term. In the short term, whatthey've got to do is just make sure that they're sending a signal to the markets that they stand behind the euro.And if that message is sent, then I think this crisis is averted 15 , because some of this crisis is psychological. Italy is a big country with a enormous industrial base, great wealth, great assets, and has had substantial debt for quite some time --it's just the market is feeling skittish 16 right now. Andthat's why I think Prime Minister Berlusconi's invitation to the IMF to certify 17 that the reform plan that they put in place is one that they will, in fact, follow is an example of the steady, confidence-building measures that need to take place in order for us to get back on track.Norah O'Donnell.Q Thank you, Mr. President. The world leaders here have stressed growth -- the importance of growth. And yet growth back at home has been anemic（贫血的） , the new jobs report today showing just 88,000 jobs added. The Republicans in Congress have made it clear that they're going to block your jobs bill because they believe the tax hikes in it hurt small businesses. At what point do you feel that you declare stalemate to try and reach common ground? And do you feel like you have been an effective leader when it comes to the economy?PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, first of all, wherever Republicans indicate an interest in doing things that would actually grow the economy, I'm right there with them. So they've said that passing trade bills with South Korea and Panama and Colombia would help spur growth -- those got done, with significant bipartisan support. They've suggested that we need to reform our patent laws -- that's something that was part of my long-term program for economic growth; we've got that done. What I've said is all those things are nice and they're important, but if we want to grow the economy right now then we have to think bigger; we've got to do somethingbolder and more significant.So we put forward the American Jobs Act, which contains ideas that are historically supported by Democrats 18 and Republicans -- like rebuilding our infrastructure 19 , our roads and our bridges; putting teachers back in the classroom; providing tax credits to small businesses.You say, Norah, that the reason they haven't voted for them is because they don't want to tax small business. Well, actually, that's not -- if that's their rationale then it doesn't fly, because the bill that they voted down yesterday -- a component 20 of the American jobs bill -- essentially said we can create hundreds of thousands of jobs, rebuilding our infrastructure, making America more competitive, and the entire program will be paid for by a tax not on millionaires but people making a million dollars a year or more, which in the United States is about -- a little over 300,000 people.Now, there aren't a lot of small businesses across the country that are making that kind of money. In fact, less than 3 percent of small businesses make more than $250,000 a year. So what they've said is, we prefer to protect 300,000 people rather than put hundreds of thousands of people back to work and benefit 300 million Americans who are hurtingbecause of low growth.So we're going to keep on pushing. Now, there are steps that we can take absent congressional action. And the refinancing proposal that we put forward in Las Vegas is an example of that -- helping 21 students with student loans. We're going to keep on rolling out administrative 22 steps that we can take that strengthen the economy. But if we're going to do something big to jumpstart（安装，引进）the economy at a time when it's stabilized 23 but unemployment is way too high, Congress is going to need to act.And in terms of my track record on the economy -- well, here's just a simple way of thinking about it: When I came into office, the U.S. economy had contracted by 9 percent -- the largest contraction 24 since the Great Depression. Little over a year later, the economy was growing by 4 percent, and it's been growing ever since.Now, is that good enough? Absolutely not. We've got to do more. And as soon as I get some signal from Congress that they’re willing to take their responsibilities seriously, I think we can do more. But that’s going to require them to break out of the rigid 25 ideological 26 positions that they’vebeen taking. And the same is true, by the way, when it comes to deficit 27 reduction.We can solve all our problems. We can grow our economy now, put people back to work, reduce our deficit. And you get surprising consensus 28 from economists 29 about how to do it, from both the left and the right. It’s just a matter of setting politics aside. And we’re constantly remembering that the election is one year away. If we do that, there's no reason why can’t solve these problems.All right? Thank you, everybody.■文章重点单词注释：1tumultn.喧哗；激动，混乱；吵闹参考例句：The tumult in the streets awakened everyone in the house.街上的喧哗吵醒了屋子里的每一个人。
