Fill each gap with the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single linethrough the center.Insurance is a device that has been developed to handle risks. Nearly everyone 31 risk of some sort. The houseowner, for example, knows that his property can be damaged by fire; the shipowner knows that his vessel may be lost at sea; the breadwinner knows that he may die 32 and leave his family the poorer. On the other hand, not every house is damaged by fire, not every vessel lost at sea. If these persons each put a small 33 into a pool, there will be enough to meet the needs of 34 who do suffer loss. In other words, the losses of the few are met from the contributions of the many. This is the basis of insurance. Those who pay the contributions are known as the 35 and those who administer the pool of contributions as insurers.The legal basis of all insurance is the policy. It states that in return for the regular payment by the insured of a named sum of money, called the premium, which is usually paid every year, the insurer will pay a sum of money or 36 for loss, if the risk or event insured against actually happens.The premium for an insurance naturally depends on how likely this is to happen, as suggested by past experience. If companies 37 their premiums too high, there will be more competition in their branch of insurance and they may lose business. 38 , if they make their premiums too low, they will lose money and may even have to drop 39 business. So the ordinary forces of supply anddemand keep premiums 40 a level satisfactory to both insurer and insured.31. A. is exposed on B. is exposed to C. is exposing to D. exposed to32.

Choose the best answer for each statement or question from the four choices marked A, B, C and D, and mark the corresponding letter on theAnswer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneLeading German company Bosch Group announced on Friday its ambitious recruitment plan to hire 4,000 more workers in China in the coming two years. It also plans to invest a total of some 650 million euros (US$781.62 million) in China from last year to 2007. By 2004, Bosch had invested about 550 million euros (US$661.37 million) in the establishment and expansion of its Chinese activities.Under the recruitment plan, Bosch will increase the number of its employees on the Chinese mainland from the present 14,000 to 18,000 by 2007. “Over the next two years, we shall be hiring not less than 1,000 additional associates in our Diesel Systems division, 2,200 in Power Tools, and 600 at Bosch Rexroth. In other words, 170 associates will join our companies in China every month,”said Franz Fehrenbach, chairman of the board of management at Bosch (China) Investment Ltd.To help realize its goal of pursuing sustainable development through talent localization in China, Bosch launched a new graduate management training programme in the country earlier this year. The new programme is designed to build up the future management team of the company in China. Among tens of thousands of applicants, the first group of 44 graduates from Chinese universities has been selected. Beginning this year, they will start a one-year training programme at Bosch’s facilities in China before they are sent to Bosch’s facilities in Germany where they will work for two years on a variety of challenging projects.“As a company committed to the Chinese market and the development of its local industries, Bosch pursues sustainable development in China through the localization of technology and talents,” said Peter Pang, president of Bosch (China) Investment Ltd. “In order to build strong local management, engineering and research teams in China, Bosch is committed to train and to develop Chinese students and professionals.”“In the long term, growth in China can only succeed with highly qualified and motivated staff from within China itself,”said Fehrenbach. The graduate management training programme is the newest initiative under Bosch’s International Development Programme (IDP) in China. Bosch said it regards its 250,000 employees around the world as the most important asset of the company.In addition to the education of graduates, IDP has, over the past few years, helped to train many talented young Chinese professionals who already have two to three years of work experience. They were sent to Germany for a two-year programme soon after they were recruited by Bosch in China. For current employees, short-term foreign assignment opportunities are widely available. Bosch Automotive Diesel Systems, one of Bosch’s business units, has sent more than 80 Chinese employees to Germany for training since it was established in Wuxi in 2004.A global manufacturer of automotive and industrial technology, consumer goods, and buildingtechnology, Bosch founded its first trading office in China in 1909. In 1926, the first car service workshop opened in Shanghai. Today, all of the Bosch business sectors are present in China. The company operates via a holding company in Shanghai, 13 subsidiaries, six joint ventures, and six trading companies.51.What’s the possible title of the passage?A. Bosch’s Investment in ChinaB. The History of BoschC. How Bosch Developed New Products in ChinaD. Bosch’s New Recruitment Plan in China52. How many additional associates will Bosch hire at least over the next two years?A. 18,000.B. 3,800.C. 1,000.D. 2,040.53.

Bosch’s training programme covers __________.A. graduatesB. professionals with work experienceC. employees who are working now in BoschD. current employees, young talents who have worked for several years, and those who justgraduated from universities55. It can be inferred that __________.A. Bosch is facing an intense competition in ChinaB. most current employees of Bosch come from GermanyC. the headquarters of Bosch is located in ShanghaiD. Bosch puts much importance on employee trainingPassage TwoLogistics can be broadly defined as the time-related positioning of resources, ensuring that materials,people, operational capacity and information are in the right place at the right time in the right quantity and at the right quality and cost. It is the planning, organization, control and execution of the flow of goods from purchasing through production and distribution to the final customer in order to satisfy the requirements of the market. In international distribution terms this is the process of warehousing, transporting and distributing goods and cargo and the positioning of containers and/or equipment. It requires, therefore, an integrated and high-quality package of services in which the emphasis is focused on care of the cargo and provision of the most efficient coordination and management of the transport process.Today the world is a single integrated market place in which supply chain efficiency has become a competitive necessity. Manufacturers and retailers have sought cost savings and service improvements to enhance their competitiveness by supplying larger markets with fewer production and distribution centers.European Union is one of the biggest integrated markets in the world. Advances in information technology and the relaxation of customs barriers in Europe have greatly facilitated the emergence of new strategies in trans-European distribution. Gone are the national boundaries as barriers to quick distribution with their customs examination. Today, traders treat the 15 European states as a single market with no trade, distribution, culture or product specification barriers. Consequently, traders are outsourcing their non-core functions and entrusting the pan-European distribution operation to the logistic freight forwarder. This involves the freight forwarder taking over every subsequent function from production line to final delivery and focusing on supply chain management.A further industrial development is the move to product outsourcing and spreading points of manufacture and distribution throughout a variety of countries. Accordingly, the freight forwarder becomes involved in managing the flow of goods, from warehousing, picking and packing to inventory control and product repairs. A global network and heavy investment in information technology is required. Freight forwarders offer added-value services, logistics management and reliable information to their clients. In short the logistic operation involves the process of order acceptance to the stage of end delivery.The logistic freight forwarder focuses on intermodal services and tries to set a cost-and time-effective method of transportation for its customers and a single rate for the through transit. The freight forwarder concentrates on supply chain management and works towards forming partnerships covering parts of the supply chain with its major customers.Overall, the logistically focused freight forwarder provides value added services including inventory control, sorting, assembly, testing, badging, packaging, labelling and bar-coding.
