Long accused of wrecking small-town America and condemned for the stinginess of its pay, the company has lately come under fire for its meanness over employees’ health-care benefits.The charge is arguably unfair: the firm’s health cover age, while admittedly less extensive than the average for big companies, is on a par with other retailers’. But bad publicity, coupled with rising costs, has stirred the Bentonville giant to action. Wal-Mart is making changes that should shift the ground i n America’s health-care debate.One strategy is to slash the prices of many generic, or out-of-patent, prescription drugs. Wal-Mart recently announced that its Florida stores would sell a list of some 300 generic drugs at $4 for a month’s supply; other st ates will follow. That is above cost but far less than the prices charged by many pharmacy chains, which get profits from fat margins on generics.Wal-Mart’s critics dismiss the move as a publicity stunt. The list of drugs includes only 143 different medicines and excludes many popular generics. True, but short-sighted. Wal-Mart has transformed retailing by using its size to squeeze suppliers and passing the gains on to consumers. It could do the same with drugs. Target, another big retailer, has already announced that it will match the new pricing. A “Wal-Mart effect” in drugs will not solve America’s health-costs problem: generics account for only a small share of drug costs, which in turn make up only 10% of overall health spending.But it would help. (High risk, high reward (excerpt), The Economist, Oct 12th 2006)。

Chapter1Learning Aims学完本章，学生应能：1．对当今社会的商务信函的几种形式有所了解；2．了解商务信函基本的布局、格式、组成，以及写作原则；3．学会写信封；4．了解其他常见通信方式，如Skype和MSN。
Background Information在当今世界，商务通信的基本原则是尽可能以最简洁的方式交换信息，以便做好生意。
书面、口头、可视化和多媒体通信的所有目标，是传递明确和深思熟虑的信息。
了解如何在这种目标下撰写商业信函，是最重要的事情之一。
技术的发展，使得商业沟通因为传真、电子邮件和其他通信方法（如Skype和MSN），变得更容易，也迫使业务人员以更快、更清晰的方式进行沟通。
虽然今天电子邮件使用最为频繁，它们使商业书信变得更随意，但仍有需要我们撰写正式商业信函的场合。
这两者其实有许多共同的写作原则。
一旦学会了如何写正式的文书，你可以很容易地了解随意的文书。
譬如，其中一些共同原则是：（1）适当的称呼依旧是两种文书礼仪的不可或缺的一部分。
（2）了解如何撰写包括介绍、支持和结束段落的主体，可有助于有效地说明商业观点。
（3）使用沟通策略——从有说服力的短语到适当的措辞——帮助说服或安抚对方。

译文：We have exported a few items of technology to some countries and more projects are under discussion. We are willing to enlarge gradually exportation of our technology on the basis of equality and mutual benefits.3.很多人都认为美国的教育在世界上是一流的，但美国教育的一个严重问题是不教孩子如何尊重和继承人类的文化遗产。
这里主要调查的是初等教育。
译文：Most people believe that American education is of the highest quality in the world, but one serious problem in American education is that children are not taught how to respect and inherit cultural heritage of human begings. Here it mainly states the situation of primary education.4.中国有近20000个美国投资的项目，总投资达260亿美元。
课文A世界经济发展世界经济比以往任何时候都更富裕，但是国家内部与国家之间财富显然分布不均衡。
世界上最富裕国家如卢森堡的年人均收入比世界最贫穷国家如塞纳里昂年人均收入高出一百多倍。
国与国之间经济发展不平衡倾向表现各异。
20世纪50、60年代，发展中国家经济获得了飞速而持续的发展。
然而，自80年代以来，除了少数几个主要亚洲国家经济成功地获得快速发展、更多全球开放市场外，其他发展中国家面临了经济不稳，社会福利收效甚微的问题。
全球化并没有缩小贫富国家收入差异。
富裕国家比贫困国家往往能更优先进入资本市场，吸引更多外国资本直接投资，更有弹性地应对全球商品市场。
现在，埃塞俄比亚居民平均收入不及出生于欧洲或美国居民的1/35，而在50年代，埃塞俄比亚人均收入是发达国家人均收入的1/16。
同样，美国目前人均收入比尼伯尔人均收入从50年代的19倍上升到了27倍。
世界上大多数最贫困国家或多或少在某种程度上相对滞后。
尤其是70年代中期以来，发展中国家经济增长进入停滞与不稳定的交替期，只有少数几个发展中国家在最近几十年能持续增长，这些国家中尤以两个世界人口大国中国和印度著名。
中国可以看作是成功进行体制改革的例子。
20世纪70年代后期改革开放以来，中国经济一直保持了高速发展。
除一些社会、经济不稳定因素之外，最近20年，中国经济改革所取得的成就解决了几千万人的温饱问题。
因为没有现存的改革经验可借鉴，中国经济改革的过程被看作是“摸着石头过河”。
实际上，经济发展是改革的落脚点和最终目标。
中国经济体制改革是以全面提高经济效益为目的，依靠发挥个人积极性，培育各种类型的市场竞争。
通常，中国向市场经济的转型过程是个缓慢的经济改革过程，表现在三个不同时期。
第一个时期从1978年至1993年，改革主要是改善激励机制和扩大市场对资源的配置范围。
这一时期以成功进行农业体制改革和双重价格体系改革为特点；第二个时期开始于1994年，这一时期中国政府决定把最终建立现代市场经济体制作为改革目标；最新时期，重点是处理好由于经济增长所带来的地区差异和贫富悬殊。

Unit One课文译文发盘1、发盘的定义“如果内容十分明确并且表明一经接受发盘人即受约束的意旨，向一个或多个特定的受盘人发出的订立合同的提议即构成发盘。
”（《联合国国际货物销售合同公约》第14条第1款）根据上述定义，一项提议要想成为发盘，必须满足以下3个条件：1）必须表明“一经接受发盘人即受约束的意旨”。
这项要求对我们区分实盘与虚盘至关重要。
“一经接受发盘人即受约束”的概念意思就是一旦发盘人提出的贸易条件被受盘人接受，合同即告成立，即使未经发盘人同意或确认，他出了履行合同别无选择。

2) 如果合同一方未能在合同规定的时限内履行合同义务，并在收到未违约方通知后15天内未能消除违约或采取补救措施，而且在被允许延长期内未履行合同，在此情形下，未违约方应书面通知违约方解除合同，同时有权向违约方索赔。
II. 句子翻译1）① 仅进去年一年时间，美元升值已经超过10%，这与1997年至1998年的亚洲金融危机期间的升值幅度差不多。
② 美国经济的减速很可能更加支持人们对美元的信心。
2）① 汇率变动对于进口价格的影响取决于国内市场需求的强度。
② 事实上，今年美国的出口已经有显著增长，长期以来首次超过了进口。
Unit Two课文译文索赔多数情况下，国际销售合同订立之后，无论买方还是卖方，合同的当事方将尽力履行责任。
然而，合同一方没能履行义务或者未按合同规定的条款履行责任的情况并不少见。
如果一方违反合同，给对方造成损失，另一方则有权依据合同和法律采取补救措施。
大多数国际销售合同都包括索赔条款，其中规定补救的原则、时间以及适用的法律。
索赔是违约的主要补救方法。
