After seeing how e-mails have come back to haunt so many executives in court, I'm wondering what should one avoid e-mailing?I just read about a big Hollywood star who decided that he was going to seek a divorce from his spouse of 22 years. He didn't sit down to talk to her about this. He didn't even give her a call. Nope, he e-mailed her about it.Unfortunately, he's not the only one who has broken his vows through e-mail. Many of us have e-mailed someone over something that was far too important, far too nuanced, far too personal to e-mail. Below is a list of times not to hit send. For more, check out The Boss's Survival Guide by Rosner, Halcrow and Levins (McGraw Hill, 2000).Don't e-mail big stuff. Don't e-mail an announcement about a merger, acquisition, reorganization or downsizing. If it's a big deal then you need to tell your people face-to-face. Reading a major announcement in an e-mail isn't as bad as reading it for the first time in the newspaper, but it's close.Don't e-mail policy changes that will generate questions. Changes in sick leave or vacation time policies or benefits coverage will generate questions. As a general rule, anything that hits someone's wallet should be explained face-to-face.Stop e-mails that become a tennis match. We've all known e-mail debates that have volleyed back and forth more times than a tennis ball at Wimbledon. If an e-mail goes back国际商务英语等级考试（中级）试卷第6 页（共14页）and forth more than three times — and especially if the distribution list gets bigger — that's a sure sign that the discussion is bigger than e-mail. Call a halt and bring people together to resolve the issue.Don't put anything confidential in e-mail. That includes: Salaries, comments about performance, etc.Don't put anything in e-mail that you don't want to see in the newspaper or hear in court. Now that organizations as diverse as Microsoft and the White House have found their internal e-mail printed in newspapers and read in court, you know that even "private" e-mail is not really private. Nor can it be easily deleted.Which leads to the big issue — are you hiding behind your e-mail? Some managers rely on e-mail in lieu of face-to-face conversation. It's especially tempting when people are off-site; such as telecommuters, vendors, or independent contractors. E-mail is more easily misinterpreted because it doesn't allow for give-and-take discussion and people aren't guided by facial expressions and vocal intonations. And the more dependent you are on e-mail, the more mysterious you become. Even the Wizard of Oz learned that being the man behind the curtain only gets you so far. Go down the hall, hang out in the lunchroom, or pick up the phone at least some of the time.Follow these tips and what you are trying to say won't get divorced from the way that you say it.（）1. According to the passage, which of the following statements is not true?A. Even "private" e-mail is not really private.B. E-mails are more easily misinterpreted.C. “Private” emails cannot be easily deleted.D. No “private” emails can be really deleted.（）2. The fact that organizations as diverse as Microsoft and the White House have found their internal e-mail printed in newspapers and read in court indicatesthat .A. people should not use emails in their work.B. even "private" e-mail is not really private.C. emails have brought people too much trouble and inconvenience.国际商务英语等级考试（中级）试卷第7 页（共14页）D. emails will lead to a lot of law suits.（）3. The expression “in lieu of” in the paragraph above the last means _____________.A. instead ofB. in line withC. in spite ofD. prior to（）4. According to the passage, all the following should be explained face-to-face except _______________.A. anything that hits someone's walletB. Changes in the time of conferencesC. changes in sick leaveD. changes in holiday time policies（）5. The best title for this passage would be_________________.A. The Importance of E-mail in BusinessB. The Popularity of E-mail in BusinessC. E-mail Always a Must in Business CommunicationD. E-mail Not Always the Best MessengerPassage TwoEconomic "globalization" is a historical process, the result of human innovation and technological progress. It refers to the increasing integration of economies around the world, particularly through trade and financial flows. The term sometimes also refers to the movement of people (labor) and knowledge (technology) across international borders. There are also broader cultural, political and environmental dimensions of globalization that are not covered here.At its most basic, there is nothing mysterious about globalization. The term has come into common usage since the 1980s, reflecting technological advances that have made it easier and quicker to complete international transactions—both trade and financial flows. It refers to an extension beyond national borders of the same market forces that have operated for centuries at all levels of human economic activity—village markets, urban industries, or国际商务英语等级考试（中级）试卷第8 页（共14页）financial centers.Markets promote efficiency through competition and the division of labor—the specialization that allows people and economies to focus on what they do best. Global markets offer greater opportunity for people to tap into more and larger markets around the world. It means that they can have access to more capital flows, technology, cheaper imports, and larger export markets. But markets do not necessarily ensure that the benefits of increased efficiency are shared by all. Countries must be prepared to embrace the policies needed, and in the case of the poorest countries may need the support of the international community as they do so.（）6. Globalization is .A. a novelty in recent years.B. mysterious as it hasn’t been well known by the majority of people.C. not new to peopleD. a historical event.（）7. Globalization refers toA. the increasing integration of economies around the worldB. the movement of people (labor) and knowledge (technology) acrossinternational bordersC. an extension beyond national borders of the market forcesD. All of the above（）8. When did the term “globalization” first come into usage?A. since 1990sB. since the 1980sC. since 1970sD. since 2000s（）9. What are the benefits of globalization?A. increased efficiency of the marketB. cheaper importsC. larger marketsD. all of the above国际商务英语等级考试（中级）试卷第9 页（共14页）（）10. Which of the following is not true?A. All the countries will share the same benefits from globalization.B Globalization makes it easier and quicker to complete international transactions.C. Countries must take active measures to embrace globalization.D. The benefits of increased efficiency will not be shared by all the countries.III．Business Translation: 20%（商务翻译，20分）Section ADirections: There are ten terms in this section.
