21世纪研究生英语(综合教程1)翻译及课后答案第一课税收竞争刺激了全球化Globalization is steadily and inexorably knitting separate national economies into a single world economy. 全球化正持续不断地把各国相互独立的经济联合成一个统一的世界经济。
Basic economic forces so far have outweighed political efforts to slow this trend. 迄今为止,在延缓这一趋势的过程中,基本的经济力量比政治力量强大的多。
Efforts to buck the effects of economic integration have ranged from anti-globalization protests to Congressional efforts to prevent American companies from reincorporating abroad.从反全球化的抗议到美国国会设法阻止美国公司在海外重组公司而做的努力都是为反对经济一体化效应而做的努力。
不断上升的贸易流和投资流、更多的流动劳动力以及快速的技术转让都是隐含在全球化背后的经济力量。
而金融市场的开放,贸易壁垒的减少以及通讯费用的降低又共同促进了这些趋势的发展。
大部分经济学家都支持全球化,是因为它提高了全世界人民的收入。
另一个较少被关注的好处是全球化使政府很难再维持一个过高的税率。
当经济一体化加强时,个人和企业都享有从海外低税率中获益的自由。
于是,当关口开放时,税率高的国家由于劳动力和资本的流出将面临巨大的经济损失。
随着资本和劳动力的流动性增强,世界范围内的税收竞争也会加剧。
聪明的国家把国际税收竞争当作是一次机遇而不是一个威胁。
例如,爱尔兰由于它在20世纪80年代实施低税收战略而在经济上取得了显著的成功。

研究生英语综合教程下册1,4,5,6单元课文翻译研究生英语综合教程(下)系列教材翻译参考译文全章节Unit 1幸福隐藏的另一面凯思琳?麦克高恩1. 咫风、房屋失火、癌症、激流漂筏失事、坠机、昏暗小巷遭歹徒袭击,没人想找上这些事儿。
但出人意料的是,很多人发现遭受这样一次痛苦的磨难最终会使他们向好的方面转变。
他们可能都会这样说:“我希望这事没发生,但因为它我变得更完美了。
2. 我们都爱听人们经历苦难后发生转变的故事,可能是因为这些故事证实了一条真正的心理学的真理,这条真理有时会湮没在无数关于灾难的报道中:在最困难的境况中,人所具有的一种内在的奋发向上的能力会进发出来。
对那些令人极度恐慌的经历作出积极回应的并不仅限于最坚强或最勇敢的人。
实际上,大约半数与逆境抗争过的人都说他们的生活之后与某种方式的改变。
3. 诸如此类有关危机改变一生的发现有着可观的研究前景,这正是创伤后成长这一新学科的研究领域。
这一新兴领域已经证实了曾经被视为陈词滥调的一个真理:大难不死,意志弥坚。
创伤后压力绝不是唯一可能的结果。
在遭遇了即使最可怕的经历之后,也只有一小部分成年人会受到长期的心理折磨。
更常见的情况是,人们会恢复过来一甚至最终会成功发达。
4. 那些经受住苦难打击的人是有关幸福悖论的生动例证:为了尽可能地过上最好的生活,我们所需要的不仅仅是愉悦的感受。
我们这个时代的人对幸福的追求已经缩小到只追求福气:一生没有烦恼,没有痛苦和困惑。
5. 这种对幸福的平淡定义忽略了问题的主要方面一种富有意义的生活所带来的那种丰富、完整的愉悦。
那就是幸福背后隐藏的那种本质一是我们在明智的男男女女身上所欣赏到并渴望在我们自己生活中培育的那种不可言喻的品质。
事实证明,一些遭受苦难最多的人-他们被迫全力应付他们未曾预料到的打击,并重新思考他们生活的意义一或许对那种深刻的、给人以强烈满足感的人生经历(哲学家们过去称之为对“美好生活”的探寻)最有发言权。
1. 购物新大陆1 在冰岛你如何说“维多利亚秘密”?随着美元在全球范围内与其他货币兑换率不断创低, 美国正成为世界的折扣店。
2 今年假日旺季,带给零售商一个意外收获:行李箱。
3 趁美元贬值之机飘洋过海而来的血拼客,不得不买一个更大的行李箱来装战利品。
纽约时代华纳购物中心的Tumi店称主要得益于附近酒店的海外游客,销售收入较去年同期上涨三成。
在FAO Schwarz店,顾客甚至在柜台旁买大帆布包用来购物。
4 几年来,美国一直为涓涓细流般的购物观光客而苦恼。
现在,伴随着美元的新低----假日旺季的全面促销----涓涓细流变成了购物狂潮。
5 客如潮涌,一些零售商因此为外国游客铺上了红地毯。
加州Costa Mesa的南岸广场在中央的店铺指引中印上中文,为中国游客提供便利。
本月早些时候,在底特律拥有四家购物中心的Taubman Centers 开通了穿越国境的“六小时疯狂购物”之旅,满载美酒和店家折扣券的豪华轿车运送着购物者来往于加拿大。
6 海外购物客在大肆采购的同时,也秀出有别于美国消费者的独特消费习性。
例如,第五大街Saks店表示,欧洲客钟情于UGG的靴子(大约2004年流行于美国)。
而更多的亚洲客人喜欢诸如LV、Gucci等奢华商品,但同时也会关顾按摩和维生素保健品。
7 Josefina和Carolina搭乘冰岛航空从斯德哥尔摩飞到纽约,开始购物之旅。
这对介乎21-25岁间的年轻情侣流连于“维多利亚秘店”前。
“我们来这里买化妆品和香水,”Carolina说道,而她拖着的硕大行李箱里,已经塞进了八双鞋子(她已经把包装盒都扔了)。
维多利亚内衣商尽管在瑞典没有开出门店,但仍每年飞往瑞典做秀。
Carolina又说:“这里的香波也很便宜。
”8 11月美元兑欧元创出新低,1欧元兑换1.48美元以上。
对于英国人来说,1英镑现在差不多可以换到2美元。
加上机票的廉价,欧洲游客说,他们在买衣服和礼物上省下的钱足以弥补旅游开销了。

It’s a charge many deny, although few would argue that 1) under the relentless bombardment of Hollywood, satellite TV, and Madison Avenue, 2) Asia’s aesthetic ideal has changed drastically. “Beauty, after all, is evolutionary,” 3)says Harvard psychology professor Nancy Etcoff. Asians are increasingly asking their 4)surgeons for wider eyes, longer noses and fuller breasts — features not 5) typical of the race.To accommodate such demands, surgeons in the 6)region have had to invent unique techniques. The No. 1 procedure 7) by far in Asia is a form of blepharoplasty (眼睑整容术), in which 8) a crease is created above the eye by scalpel(解剖刀)or by 9) needle and thread; in the U.S., blepharoplasty also ranks near the 10) top , but involves removing bags and fat around the eyes.Likewise, 11) Westerners use botox(肉毒菌毒素)to diminish wrinkles — while in Korea, Japan and 12) other Asian regions, botox is injected into wide cheeks so 13) that the muscle will atrophy(萎缩)and the cheeks will shrink. Just 14) as Asian faces require unique procedures, their bodies demand innovative operations 15) to achieve the leggy, skinny, busty Western ideal that has become 16) increasingly universal.Dr. Suh, a plastic surgeon in Seoul, has struggled to 17) find the best way to fix the radish-shaped calves. Liposuction(吸脂), so effective 18 on the legs of plump Westerners, doesn’t work on Asians since 19) muscle , not fat, accounts for the bulk. Earlier attempts to carve 20) to muscle were painful and made walking difficult. “Finally, I discovered that by severing a nerve behind the knee, the muscle would atrophy,” says Suh, “thereby reducing its size up to 40%.” Suh has performed over 600 of the operations since 1996.硕士英语第二章ClozeThe Internet has been a major source of leisure since before the World Wide Web. One main area of leisure on the Internet is multiplayer gaming. This form of leisure creates 1)_ communities_, bringing people of all ages and 2) origins to enjoy the fast-paced world of multiplayer games.

Unit 1 Text ATax Competition Spurs GlobalizationA. Translate the following paragraphs into Chinese.由于殖民地与许多海外地区的大量贸易,所有欧洲重要商业国以及它们在西半球领地的金银铸币在北美东海岸都可以自由交换。
由于法律不允许英国货币从英国流向殖民地,相比之下,西班牙的货币更加重要。
这些货币在墨西哥城及利马铸造,再进入西班牙殖民地。
西班牙币在殖民地被普遍使用,以至于这种硬币最后成为美国货币单位。
虽然早在1652年马萨诸塞率先铸造低含金量的硬币,但殖民地最后转而印制纸币以补充短缺且不可靠的货币供给。
著名人士的期票与签发给英国商人的汇票几个月内就能顺利转手。
此外,各个殖民地的财政部门开始在收税前签发期票,同时向城镇官员下达书面命令要求当地店铺履行付款义务,如其他可转让的单据一样,这些票据经背书后可作为货币进行交换。

全球气候变暖可能产生的预期结果包括极地冰盖融化,海洋沿线被淹没,剧烈的暴风雨,降雨模式的改变,以及现有生态平衡的广泛变化等等。
根据目前的模式,据估计在下个世纪中全球海平面将上升15~95厘米。
这足以把世界上三分之一人口的家园淹没。

这些资助只能使那些生产远距离出口商品的大公司获益。
