2019年剑桥商务英语考试高级冲刺试题及答案Questions 1 8Look at the statements below and at the five reports about companies on the opposite page from an article giving advice to self-employed consultants about negotiating feesfor their servicesWhich book(A， B， C，D or E) dose each statement 18 refer to ?For each statement 18， make one letter(A， B， C，D or E) on your Answer Sheet .You will need to use some of these letters more than once .Example ：Lack of self-confidence will put you at a disadvantage in a negotiation .0 A B C D EThis company has been involved in diversifying its business act6ivities.Although this company is doing well， it has a number of internal difficulties to deal withThis company has reduced the profits it makes on individual itemsOne statistic is a less accurate guide to this company*s performance than anotherThe conditions which have helped this company are likely to be less favourable in the futureThis company*s share price has been extremely volatile over the last twelve monthsThis company is likely to be the subject of a takeover bid in the near futureThis company*s performance exemplifies a widely held beliefAChemical CompanyMasterson*s interim pre-tax profits growth of 20% was somewhat inflated as a result of the income received from the disposal of several of the company*s subsidiaries. The underlying 8% rise in operating profits is a more realistic gauge of the company*s true progress. However， Masterson*s impending merger with Bentley and Knight and its appointment of a new chief executive should mean that the company will be able to sustain growth for the foreseeable fut5ure. The share price has varied little during the course of the year and now stands at 6.75.BHotel GroupDuring the past year the Bowden Hotel Group has acquired 77 new properties， thus doubling in size . last week the group reported pre-tax profits of 88 million in the first six months of the year， ahead of expectations and helped by astrong performance from its London-based hotels and newly expanded US business. However. There is still some way to go. Integration of the new acquisitions is still not complete and，while the share price has risen recently， major problemswith integration have yet to be solved.CHigh-tech CompanyThis time last year a share in Usertech was worth just over 1. six months ago it was worth 40. today it is priced at under 8 . if proof were need， here is an illustration of how much of a lottery the technology market can be. But some technology companies are fighting back and Usertech is one of them . What has renewed excitement in the company is the opening of its new American offices in Dallas and itsambitious plans to expand its user base in both North andLatin America.DBuilding CompanyRenton*s share price has risen gradually over the past year from 2.4 to 3.8 . The company has been successful in choosing prime location for its buildings and has benefited from the buoyant demand for housing. Whilst this demand is expected to slow down somewhat during the next year，investors are encouraged by the company*s decision to moveinto building supermarkets. Work has already begun on twosites in London， and the company is expected to sign a contract within the next month for building four large supermarkets in Scotland.EPottery ManufacturerMilton Dishes has been through a shake-up over the past year. The group， which has been cutting margins and improving marketing， may post a small profit this year. The many members of the Milton family， who between them own 58 per cent of the business， have been watching the share price rise steadily and several are looking to sell. Trade rival Ruskin has bought up just over 17 percent of the shares and could well be spurred into further action by the signs of a recovery at the firm.。

Media coverage of"leftover men and women"has been widespread in China over the years,raising concerns over this increasingly serious social problem.New phrases like"leftover girls"and"leftover boys"are entering the modern lexicon,referring to women and men in their late 20s or early 30s who are still single.A new report released by China's top health authority has once again highlighted the issue.According to a survey,21.6%of the leftover men and women are subject to longterm pres-sures from the society and themselves.According to the report,China's"leftover"men and women,as unmarried denizens aged over 30 or so are charmingly called,face significant health risks.The Report on Chinese Family Development 2015 was released by the National Health and Family Planning Commission,who conducted a survey of almost 32,500 households.The result shows that against the backdrop ofpopulation migration and big differences between urban and rural areas,unmarried men of all ages are largely limited to the countryside,while unmarried women are concentrated in urban areas.The report also reveals the trend that an increasing number of men marry women much younger than they are,and that they prefer women in rural areas.This is because it is difficult to find a spouse of their age or in their cities.In some impoverished areas,two percent of the men over 50 years old are still single.Interestingly,statistics also show that the number of single women in cities who are over 30 is much higher than that in the countryside,because the former group is usually well-educated,more financially independent,and prefers career development to marriage.参考范文：There has been a wide concern about the issue of"leftover men and women"in China.which has became a serious social problem.Over quarter of the left over men and women are under great pressure from outside.The research shows that there is a big difference between the cities and countries concerning to the leftover men and women.Most single menre-side in the rural areas.Meanwhile,urban regions account for the large amount of single women.The reason for this phenomenon is that women who work and live in the big cities ale cated and have high salary,thus,they would mther to put more attention on their careers rather than on their relationships with men.In my opinion,society should not give too much pressure to leftover men and women for marriage is a personal affair and others should not give comments to it.As the saying goes:"A mail who drank it knows whether the water Was cold or waHn."If they meet their spouse,I think they will get married soon.。

The Negotiating Table：You can negotiate virtually anything. Projects，resources， expectations and deadlines are all outes of negotiation. Some people negotiate deals for a living. Dr Herb Cohen is one of these professional talkers， called in by panies to negotiate on their behalf . He approaches the art of negotiation as a game because， as he is usually negotiating for somebody else， he says this helps him drain the emotional content from his conversation. He is working in a petitive field and needs to avoid being too adversarial. Whether he sueeds or not， it is important to him to make a good impression so that people will remend him.The starting point for any deal， he believes， is to identify exactly what you want from each other. More often than not， one party will be trying to persuade the other round to their point of view. Negotiation requires two people at the end saying ‘yes“。
