测试中可能遇到的词汇和知识:skyscrapers摩天大楼ubiquitous无所不在的Euromonitor欧睿(公司名)Mainlanders大陆人A parable of Oreos and ovens(716words)By Patti Waldmeir in Shanghai------------------------------------------------------Three scant years ago,Shanghai celebrated the100th birthday of one of history’s most famous junk foods—the Oreo biscuit —with fireworks on the Bund and multi-storey neon adverts projected on to skyscrapers.But now China has put Oreo on a diet.资料来源:育明考研考博官网This is a country where,within living memory,millions starved to death.People will,to this day,tell you how they ate roots or shoots or even dirt to stay alive.Little wonder the Chinese market was a pushover for the ubiquitousblack-and-white sandwich cookie.Foreign treats were seen as healthier than local snacks, because they were imported from places that did not have such a vigorous tradition of poisoning residents with tainted ingredients,as was the fad in China.When I moved here in 2008,it took a while to get used to the notion that McDonald’s was a healthy option,purely because it was less likely to be toxic.Here,when mainlanders tell you something is“healthy”, they often mean that it won’t be immediately fatal.But in the past few years,China has begun to discover that heavy metals are not the only things to avoid in snack foods. There is that small matter of fat and sugar,st week, Chinese media carried stories saying that Mondelez,the maker of Oreo,was shutting down some Shanghai production because people were going right off biscuits.The US company 资料来源:育明考研考博官网waffled a bit about“optimising our supply chain”and shifting production elsewhere,but the company had made clear in the past that Oreo was in trouble in China.Figures from Euromonitor show that,since the sound and light of its centenary celebration,the biscuit has lost one-third of its market share in China,from nearly9per cent of the market in 2012to6per cent now.So that is how Oreo ended up watching its waistline:Mondelez introduced a new“Oreo Thin”,just to woo Chinese consumers, and it did so well that they last month announced that Americans will be able to opt for the skinnier cousin too.All because of a revolution in eating habits that took decades in the west—and only a handful of years in China.That’s not Oreo’s only problem:many of the world’s most successful brands made it to China early and had a long run almost unrivalled,but are losing their first-mover advantage. (KFC has that problem too,compounded by a spot of bad publicity on the food quality front.)资料来源:育明考研考博官网Meanwhile,mainlanders have developed one of the most fickle palates on earth:Americans may want the same cookie Mum gave them with their milk after school;but Chinese want something new every day.Local companies are often nimbler than multinationals at introducing green tea or purple sweet potato alternatives to traditional flavours.And cookie companies are facing competition from an even more unlikely source:home bakers.When I moved here,ovens were rare in normal homes:I figured that was why mine didn’t work too well.But now many a Chinese bride insists on having one.Sales of the countertop ovens preferred on the mainland have more than quadrupled since I started wielding a flour sifter on Chinese shores,and a318-pieceeverything-you-could-ever-need baking set can be had on Alibaba’s Taobao for only137devalued renminbi.For,given that the vast majority of Chinese under30have never known an hour of hunger in their lives,let alone survived on roots and shoots,just filling the tummy is no longer the point.They cook for fun—and for health reasons,资料来源:育明考研考博官网says Qian Zhaoli,a27-year-old marketing manager inShanghai.She’s started baking her own rusks because her first child is teething.“I wanted her to have the healthiest ones,without any additives,”she says,adding that shop-boughtrusks have such a long shelf life,and“who knows how many artificial colours and preservatives they contain?”Plus,western-style baking is far easier than cooking any of China’s complicated cuisines,she says,noting that in Shanghai most cooking is done by men.This is not just a tale of Oreos and ovens.It is a parable for a new type of Chinese consumption:more finicky,more fickle—potentially less profitable.Anyone selling almost anythinghere should watch it closely.May the best rolling pin win.What is the author's attitude about Oreo?∙Healthy∙yucky∙bad for health∙good for teethWhat is the meaning of“healthy”by mainlanders about food?∙it won’t be immediately fatal资料来源:育明考研考博官网∙little fat and sugar∙it is non-toxic∙all of non-gm ingredientsWhere is production closed by Mondelez,the maker of Oreo?∙Guangzhou∙Beijing∙Chengdu∙ShanghaiWho is the competition from an even more unlikely source for cookie companies?∙Cake shop∙Supermarket∙Home oven∙Male chef在中国“瘦身”的奥利奥解析C第一段作者说奥利奥是junk foods之一,所以应该是对健康无益的食物。

测试中可能遇到的词汇和知识:conglomerate联合大企业upheaval突变oligopoly求过于供的市场情况hitherto迄今sophisticated精致的Industrial giants caught in LED headlights(451words)By Chris Bryant in Frankfurt------------------------------------------------------Shoppers at the Carrefour hypermarket in Lille no longer have to ask for help to find items on special offer—instead they can navigate to them using their smartphone.Philips,the Dutch technology conglomerate,has installed800light-emitting diode fixtures at the7,800square metre store that can send a location signal to a customer’s phone using light invisible to the human eyes.“With the right sensors installed,an LED light-fitting could become the best GPS ever by directing customers or visitors to where they want to go”says Gaia Nocchi,director at Frost&Sullivan,the research and consulting firm.Lighting is starting to become part of the“internet of things”—where different devices are all connected on telecoms networks—but for incumbent manufacturers this rapid technological shift is causing huge upheaval.资料来源:育明考研考博官网Industrial giants Philips,Siemens and General Electric for decades enjoyed an oligopoly in the hitherto slow-moving lighting market,which James Stettler,an analyst at Barclays,compares with a“licence to print money”,partly because people have to regularly replace their bulbs.Now LEDs are fast displacing traditional light sources such asincandescent,halogen and fluorescent bulbs,catalysed partly bydouble-digit annual price declines in components.Government regulations also have supported the growth of LEDs because of their energy efficiency.They produce light using semiconductors—whereas traditional light bulbs rely on filaments—and therefore consume less electricity.LEDs also last much longer than old-style bulbs and are far moresophisticated.For example,the new68-storey International Youth Culture Centre in Nanjing,China,has700,000LED lights capable of illuminating the building façade in different colours at night.Frost&Sullivan estimates the global LED lighting market grew35per cent to$32.3bn last year,and it is forecast to more than double to$70bn by 2019.LED as a proportion of the total lighting market is set to near50 per cent by the end of2015and reach84per cent by2020.The incumbents saw the tech revolution coming and are now among the biggest players,but the rapid growth in LEDs has attracted new low-costcompetitors,particularly from Asia.The incumbents are responding to these challenges in different ways,but broadly speaking they are restructuring legacy,high-volume lighting units and regearing their business models towards“smart”and“connected lighting”.“In10years there might not be a single light bulb left.If your core competence isn’t needed any more,then you need to adapt—the challenge is to move from being a general lighting company to a solution provider,”says Ms Nocchi.How can shoppers at the Carrefour hypermarket find items on special offer?

在苹果股价的连续走低背后,到底隐藏着投资者怎样的顾虑?市场是否不再接受苹果独居鳌头的状况?消费者对于苹果的期待值和需求狂潮是否就此消退?究竟是谁,动了苹果投资者的“奶酪”?测试中可能遇到的词汇和知识:bullish积极乐观的,看涨的behemoth巨头Atop在…顶上What is eating Apple investors?(432words)By Kadhim Shubber------------------------------------------------------Apple’s shares slid to their lowest point since January on Wednesday morning before its five-day losing streak finally halted as buyers emerged.The world’s most valuable company has been hit by investor concern about its business in China,where there are signs economic growth is slowing and where Apple has recently slipped from its pre-eminent position in the smartphone market.Despite Tim Cook’s bullish comments on China during Apple’s recent third-quarter earnings call,investors have sold off the company,wiping more than$111bn off its market value since July21,a15per cent drop.资料来源:育明考研考博官网Shares opened a further2per cent lower on Wednesday but recovered by mid-morning,leaving it up 1.6per cent at$116.44.The technology behemoth has fallen in10out of the past12trading sessions and a further drop on Wednesday would have been the stock’s sixth straight day of losses —the longest such stretch since February2013Apple’s share price slide has weighed heavily on broader stock market indices,with every$1change in Apple’s share price resulting in a0.65 point shift in the S&P500,according to Howard Silverblatt,senior index analyst at S&P Dow Jones Indices.“The combination of Apple’s size and price moves results in an enormous impact on indices,with the only comparison being International Business Machines’impact in the early1980s,when PCs were new,and IBM was expected to own the market,”he said in a note.Although Apple more than doubled its sales in China to nudge third-quarter revenues and earnings just ahead of market forecasts,investors were rattled as iPhone sales fell short of expectations.Their concerns were reinforced after research outfit Canalys said this week that Apple has lost its position atop the Chinese smartphone market to local upstart Xiaomi during the second quarter.Apple dropped to third in China in the second quarter,according to Canalys, falling behind Xiaomi at number one and Huawei in second place.“Competition among major brands has never been so intense,”said Jingwen Wang in the report.Sliding commodity prices,which Wall Street has taken as evidence of a 资料来源:育明考研考博官网slowdown in China’s economy,along with turmoil in the country’s stock markets,have added to bearish investor sentiment around Apple.During Apple’s earnings call on July21,chief executive Tim Cook shrugged off concerns about the sharp drop in China’s stock markets and worries about its economic growth,saying the company remained“extremely bullish”on the country.“Nothing that’s happened has changed our fundamental view that China will be Apple’s largest market at some point in the future,”he said.Which market is the most concerning to investors?∙America∙India∙China∙UKWhich company in the1980s’market can be a comparison of Apple in today’s market?∙Microsoft∙Intel∙Cisco∙IBMWhat is Tim Cook’s attitude towards the Chinese market?∙Indifferent资料来源:育明考研考博官网∙Negative∙Don’t know∙PositiveWhich domestic company did Apple lose its atop position in the Chinese market to?∙Xiaomi∙Huawei∙Samsung∙HTC谁动了苹果投资者的“奶酪”?解析C文章第二段提到投资者最担心对他们有影响的就是苹果在中国市场的表现。

overseaseconomic links.2.The pattern of China’s foreign trade has changed substantially since the founding of People’sRepublic.3.China exported agricultural products to the USSR and East European countries in return formanufactured goods and the capital equipment required for the country’s industrialization programme which placed emphasis on the development of heavy industry.4.The Great Leap Forward of1958-1959initially produced gains in agricultural and industrialproduction,but subsequently resulted in serious economic imbalances.5.Economic problems were exacerbated by three bad harvests with the result that national income andthe volume of foreign trade contracted during1960-1962.6.The withdrawal of Soviet economic and technical aid in the early-1960s caused trade to shift awa yfrom the USSR and its Comecon partners towards Japan and Western Europe.7.The growth of foreign trade was disrupted again during the Cultural Revolution(1966-1976)whenagricultural and industrial production fell sharply and transportation constraints became more serious.8.Foreign trade,which has a major role in the Four Modernizations programme,has grown rapidly overthe past few years.9.The Sino-USA agreement on trade relations,which came into force in February1980,accords Chinamost-favored nation treatment.10.A commodity breakdown of China’s trade shows that fuels accounted for24percent of total exportsin1982……11.But the leading categories of imports in1982were food,which accounted for22percent of the total,light manufactured items with a share of20percent and machinery and transportation equipment with 17percent.12.The US dollar value of Chinese exports increased at an average rate of almost18percent perannum between1978and1983……13.As a result,the visible trade surplus rose sharply from US$3.7billion in1981to US$4.4billion in1982and US$3.7billion in1983.14.Official recognition that foreign technology could play a major role in modernizing the Chineseeconomy had caused imports to rise by more than50percent in1978placing undue strain on the national economy.15.China became a net gain exporter in1984.16.The pattern of foreign trade growth was reserved in1984:the value of exports increased by10percent,but imports jumped38percent with the result that the visible trade account was in deficit by US$1.1billion.17.The strong increase in imports last year is attributed to buoyant economic activity as well as to thesuccess of the Government’s trade and foreign investment policies.18.HK is China’s major export market accounting for approximately26percent of total exports in1983(though much in re-exported to other destinations from there).19.The EEC’s share of China’s exports has generally been around11-12percent over the past few years(the leading export markets within the European Community are Germany and the United Kingdom),…….20.The most important suppliers among the industrial countries were Japan……21.The successful outcome to negotiations between Britain and China about the future of HK willstrengthen the Sino-British relations and is expected to boost trade between the two countries.22.The value of Chinese exports to Britain,which rose rapidly between1977and1980,declined in1981-1982,but recovered strongly in1983….23.Chinese officials stress the importance of introducing advanced technology to domestic industry,but the need is for technology of varying degrees of sophistication,not necessarily for advanced technology as that term is understood in the West.24.The size of the visible account of the balance of payments,but the size of the visible trade surplusduring1981-1983and a pronounced increase in earnings from tourism suggest that the current account has been in surplus over the past few years.25.Foreign exchange reserves have risen rapidly from approximately US$2.5billion at end-1980to US$17.0billion by October1984.26.The balance of foreign exchange reserves is controlled by the Bank of China which specializes inforeign exchange business.27.The authorities are willing to permit a run-down in the country’s international reserves over the nextfew years as a means of accelerating the introduction of foreign technology.28.Foreign countries are encouraged to mount exhibitions of their goods and China itself hasparticipated in a number of trade fairs and exhibitions held abroad.29.Since the late1970s China has also adopted foreign trade practices long-established in many othercountries.30.Assembly manufacturing began in1978and particular forms of foreign trade are eligible forexemption from customs duties and taxation.31.a series of policies designed to encourage foreign investment have accompanied these tradereforms.32.The debt problems confronting a number of developing countries have reinforced China’sdetermination to introduce foreign technology by means of direct investment and concessionary finance rather than by raising substantial sums of money on the international capital markets.33.Foreign investment is advantageous insofar as it facilitated the transfer of technology and skills andavoids creating an overhang of debt.34.The authorities do not consider it appropriate to incur large amounts of external debt until a number ofpractical bottlenecks in the economy.35.China’s access to substantial sums of money from the World Bank also reduces the need to borrowon commercial terms.36.Figures compiled by the OECD and the Bank of International Settlements show borrowings fromwestern commercial banks of approximately US$2billion,but also show that the bulk of China’s foreign obligations consist of non-bank trade related credits which exceed US$4billion.37.There appears considerable scope for foreign banks to undertake profitable business over the longerterm.1.The four special economic zones(SEZs)in Guangdong and Fujian provinces,14coastal cities(allformer treaty ports)and Hainan island(19“open”areas in all)have specifically designed tax and other incentives for the foreign investor.2.But every provincial capital is doing its best to attract foreign investment.3.The following year,a tax law for joint ventures was promulgated.4.Chinese leaders were growing impatient with the rate of progress in the showpiece SEZ-Shenzhen.5.The State Council declared14cities along the entire coast plus Hainan island open to foreigninvestment,thus introducing a real element of competition into the country’s economic-development programme.6.Even local factories are taking note of the vast potential sales in their own domestic market.7.The central government’s determination to raise the level of industrial technology is clearly behind thedecision to open the14coastal cities.8.The Bank of China has also said that new and more flexible loan policies will enable“thousands”ofdomestic enterprises to borrow foreign exchange to import equipment and repay in Renminbi.9.The need to upgrade industrial equipment is great.10.The combined industrial output of the15coastal areas is reportedly equal to a quarter of the nation’stotal.11.But while the reasons for throwing19areas and cities open to foreign investment and technologytransfer are clear,how the preferential systems will operate is not.12.This is due largely to the intensity of competition among the19,coupled with the inexperience ofmost local authorities both in making decisions and in dealing with the outside world.13.In the SEZs,which are being built almost from scratch,foreigners can invest in anything which thestate deems useful for the country,be it,for examples,production of goods for export or construction of private-housing estates.14.These can be joint ventures,cooperative enterprises or wholly foreign-owned operations.15.….imports of capital and consumer goods(except cigarettes and liquor)are exempted from customsduties,and a uniform15%income-tax rate is applied.16.In the coastal cities,only factories where plant is being upgraded by foreign investment,enjoy the15%tax rate.17.The Economic and Technical Development Zone(ETDZ)outside the coastal city centre will offer auniform tax rate of15%for all the projects and waive the usual10%profit-remittance tax.18.A joint venture outside the Zone is liable to the standard33%tax rate.19.Tourist enterprises and any other service industry outside the Zone are not entitled to any specialstatus.20.The major source of confusion for foreign investors,however,is not the tax rate but who has theauthority to approve projects.21.China International Economic Consultants Inc.is the consultancy arm of the China International Trustand Investment Corp.22.But if we start putting too many rules and regulations,they will get discourage.23.….it will be some time before the dust settles and local authorities and foreign investors can dealwith one another in a systematic way.24.Stock-taking of the open policy will come later this year when the National People’s Congressdiscusses the seventh five-year plan.1.China has the most dynamic economy in the world today.2.Its boom radiates from Guangdong,its richest province…3.After a slowdown through1990,China’s economy bounced back mightily,reaching a recent peak of13percent growth last year.4.Some Western experts are predicting that China could become the world’s dominant economy earlyin21st century.5.Membership in this club,which includes all the world’s leading economies,could provide a hugeboost for a low-wage export economy.st year China’s trade surplus surged,buoyed by exports of toys,textiles and

back into double digits…1.In1991,for the second year in a row,the economies of low-income and middle-income countriesvirtually stagnated,as measured by an increase in per capita gross domestic product(GDP).2.Aggregate output for developing countries advanced by slightly less than2percent during1991(similar to the weak performance of1990),implying an easing in per capita income of0.1percent.3.Excluding Central and Eastern Europe,growth in developing countries in1991was3.4percent,compared with3.8percent during the1980s.4.An increase in China’s growth rate helped to sustain high rates of growth in the East Asia region.5.International conditions for growth in developing countries deteriorated in1991.6.The seven major industrial countries(the G-7)experienced a significant slowdown in GDP growth…7.The weakness in demand in the United States contributed to a drop of over6percent in non oilcommodity prices…8.Policy reforms in Latin America helped to moderate inflation and domestic demand;East Asianeconomics,supported by growth in export volume in the range of10percent and by robust domestic demand,continued to grow rapidly.9.The index of non oil primary commodity prices in nominal dollar terms decline for the thirdconsecutive year,and the index in real terms hit an all-time low.10.There were no breakthroughs in the Uruguay Round of GATT negotiations on key elements,andthe outcome remains in doubt.11.Growth in the G-7countries decelerated from2.8percent in1990to1.9percent in1991.12.The broad trend was the outcome of largely unexpected setbacks to recovery in the United Statesand the United Kingdom and the apparent onset of a slower period of economic growth in Japan and Germany.13.A slump in construction of rental housing and the fading of a tax-cut-induced boom in auto sales alsocontributed to the weaker growth of Japan.14.Unification further boosted investment,which then appeared to diminish,as expectations ofprofitability were dampened by higher wages and high short-term nominal and real interest rates.15.Inflation as measured by the GDP deflator slackened in most of the G-7countries.16.It continued to decelerate in North America and edged down in Japan,17.Financial institutions in these two countries adopted more conservative lending policies,curtailingfinancing of high-risk projects…18.These developments played some part in the general tightening of credit during1991…19.A notable development in1991was a narrowing of current-account imbalances of most majorindustrial countries…20.The trade component of the deficit narrowed as lower inflation and earlier dollar depreciationimproved competitiveness…21.A continuation of the surge of imports that followed unification,as well as the earlier appreciation ofthe deutsche mark,contributed to the swing.22.In Germany,the slope of the yield curve turned positive.23.Because slowdown in industrial-country growth dampened demand for exports of both primarycommodities and manufactures from developing countries,the volume of merchandise exports of developing countries declined by2percent.24.The influence of the Gulf crisis,including the spike in

significant gains in the export of manufactures.28.Export volumes for the group of East Asian countries advanced at double-digit rates.29.Economic weakness in some of the region’s traditional export markets has underlined the importanceof market diversification…30.The decline was partly caused by India’s reining in of its budget deficit and the short-term effects ofthe implementation of strong emergency stabilization measures…31.The emergency measures included a serve compression of imports,tight credit policies andexchange-rate devaluation.32.In Europe and Central Asia,GDP contracted by about7percent,as stabilization and reform programs,in several countries had not yet led to bottoming-out in their economies.1.The Clinton Administration is drawing the first lines of a tougher

测试中可能遇到的词汇和知识:enthuse充满热情地说commodity商品wariness小心jargon术语hype夸张的广告宣传clout影响力Fear and greed drive China’s online to offline commerce craze(764words)By Richard Waters------------------------------------------------------Sometimes,simply invoking the latest hot consumer internet trend is not enough.Chinese search engine Baidu learned that late last month,as its deepening investment in so-called“online to offline”commerce,or O2O, left a chill on its stock price.In China,O2O has been all the rage.But the term has been slapped on such a broad range of businesses that it has become meaningless.Chinese consumers,for instance,think the most useful aspect of O2O is going to a physical store to pick up and return things bought online,according to consultancy firm McKinsey.Others use the term to describe online ordering of local services from independent suppliers.Elsewhere in the world this is known as the on-demand economy.资料来源:育明考研考博官网Low labour costs in China have made this model particularly attractive, according to its supporters.Local media enthuse breathlessly about manicurists who can make a multiple of the median wage and tour guides who are suddenly a hot commodity.Investor wariness is therefore understandable.Some of the old categories of the consumer internet are breaking down,and it is not entirely clear what lasting new business models will emerge—let alone who will come out on top.O2O,internet-plus,on-demand,full-stack start-ups—all of thehalf-formed jargon being applied to these new approaches is one indication of the definitional vagueness.It also leaves room for plenty of hype.Of the many different O2O services being promoted,the most effective seem to link an online user interface to a service or product that has not been deeply touched by the internet.Silicon Valley venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz calls these“full-stack start-ups”,because they offer a more integrated style of commerce.Companies claiming part of this new market come in many shapes,but they share two broad aims.One is to vacuum up online orders in volume,giving them extra clout in negotiations with real-world retailers or service providers.Dominant digital platforms that are able to aggregate large numbers of users—a trend accelerated by the shift to mobile apps—have been the main forces behind this.In China,all but one of the15most actively used mobile apps is owned by or associated with one of the three leading internet companies:Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent.That is according to Weibo,the Twitter-like service that is itself affiliated with Alibaba.Some specialist apps have had enough of a headstart that they have been able to establish themselves as platforms in their own right.Uber and Airbnb are prime examples.But many others are likely to be drawn into the orbits of the big internet companies,which have the ecommerce capabilities to support their operations.This points to the second common aim of companies in the O2O space:they want to deliver an end-to-end service,from collecting an order to 资料来源:育明考研考博官网arranging for a service and handling the payment.Having a digital wallet offering is both a key part of“closing the loop”and,potentially,a highly profitable opportunity in its own right.One question hanging over the heads of these companies is whether they can keep the high-margin online profits to themselves while shuffling off the more prosaic“offline”aspects of the job to others.In the US,this is under threat due to legal questions about whether the independent contractors that on-demand companies use to keep their costs low should be reclassified as employees.However,another even bigger issue is how defensible these new businesses will be in the long run.For now,money is being poured into subsidisinga land grab,as companies race to offer services at below cost to signup users.In a bull market—where user numbers rather than profits are the key—the sums being committed are huge.Once the dust settles,the companies that have signed up the most customers will be in control.Barriers to entry and switching costs for users will allow them to raise prices.But this is still only a theory.Those business that will not make it into the ranks of major platform players will face an even more uncertain future.That explains the recent nervousness of Baidu’s investors,but the company has few options.Growth in PC-based online markets is slowing and established ways of making money—like the lead-based advertising on Baidu’s search engine—are under threat from the rise of the smartphone.This is one internet craze that is being driven as much by fear as greed.Which of the following factors in China have made the O2O modelparticularly attractive?∙Grand online market∙A great number of customers∙Low labour costs资料来源:育明考研考博官网∙Support from the governmentWhich of the following names is not mentioned as one of the O2O’s alternative name?∙Internet-plus∙On-demand∙Full-stack start-ups∙Internet-to-offlineWhich of the following platforms is mentioned as affiliated with Alibaba?∙Weibo∙Twitter∙Uber∙AirbnbWhich of the following businesses of Baidu is mentioned as beingthreatened by the rise of the smartphone?∙Smartphone-based online market∙Baidu’s O2O platform∙The lead-based advertising on Baidu’s search engine∙Baidu’s search engine解析C文章第三段提到中国的廉价劳动力使得O2O商业模式格外具有吸引力。

测试中可能遇到的词汇和知识:turquoise蓝绿色的lagoon环礁湖throwback大倒退connoisseurship鉴赏家integral构成整体所必需的premium优质的Rum:From cocktails to the tipple of connoisseurs(888words)By Shannon Bond------------------------------------------------------In the Tonga Room,in San Francisco’s swanky Fairmont Hotel,rainstorms break out every20minutes,a band plays on a boat floating in a turquoise lagoon and some drinks are served in giant pineapples.With nearly60varieties of rum,as well as the requisite piña coladas, daiquiris and oversized scorpion bowls,the cocktail menu is a throwback to1945,when the hotel first converted its indoor swimming pool into a sprawling tiki-themed bar.Most Americans associate rum with the Tonga Room’s fruit-flavoured 资料来源:育明考研考博官网tropical concoctions.However,a new generation of bartenders and distillers is trading on the spirit’s rich history to help lift it into the realms of connoisseurship.“In America,rum was whisky before whisky was whisky.It was the spirit we all would drink every day,”says Kenneth McCoy,bartender and owner of the Rum House,a New York cocktail lounge.“Now people are going back and realising,hey,this is actually the original American drink.”The sugar cane-derived liquor was the first spirit to be produced in significant quantities in the colonial era,according to the Distilled Spirits Council of the US.By the time of the American Revolution,the US colonies were home to140distilleries producing nearly5m gallons of rum a year,compared with imports of nearly4m.The drink was an integral part of the“triangle trade”:New England-produced rum was used to buy slaves in Africa who were sold in the West Indies for molasses that were sent to New England to make more rum.Today rum is third—behind vodka and whisky—in US sales volume.Sales reached25.2m9-litre cases in2014,up16per cent from a decade earlier, although growth has flattened in recent years,according to Distilled Spirits Council figures.Over the same period,US sales of the most expensive super premium rum —a category that barely existed in the early2000s—have more than tripled to447,000cases.It is a small but growing part of the spirits market that,like premium whisky,bourbon and tequila,is seeing a boost from the cocktail revival that has swept the US in recent years.“Rum is definitely a cocktail spirit.We love it for that reason,”says 资料来源:育明考研考博官网Derek Brown,owner of several bars in Washington DC including Eat the Rich and Mockingbird Hill.“I make daiquiris,real daiquiris,with rum,lime and sugar,the way it was originally created.I will also substitute aged rum in a Manhattan for bourbon or rye.There’s not a lot of spirits you can do that with.”Mr Brown and fellow spirits experts say that they are drawn to rum’s versatility and variety,which allow for a broad range of experimentation.Dan Kleinman,vice-president of marketing for rums at Diageo North America, whose Captain Morgan is one of the top-selling US rum brands,says the liquor can appeal to a range of tastes.“On the light side it refreshes as well as a vodka and on the bold,dark side it has that complexity and flavour that stands up in crafted cocktails.”The rising popularity of dark spirits such as bourbon and Scotch is creating opportunity for aged rums in particular.“We’re now in a whisky boom that is going to help everyone.People are starting to understand barrel ageing and what that does in other drinks as well,”says H Joseph Ehrmann,owner of the Elixir bar in San Francisco.“Consumers are more adventurous with their palates and their wallets.”New craft distilleries in states such as Massachusetts and New York,which were centres of rum making in colonial days,are also elevating the spirit away from its associations as a party drink.Bridget Firtle,a former hedge fund analyst,runs the Noble Experiment, a distillery in Brooklyn that is reviving rum production in the US.She believes that wider consumer trends are fuelling the interest in rum.“We’资料来源:育明考研考博官网re entering an age,a movement of farm to table,focused on using less ingredients.People want to learn about what they’re eating and drinking, whether it’s a craft rum from Brooklyn or Rhum Agricole from Martinique.”Her distillery produces about500,six-pack cases a month and is expanding distribution this year to states including California,Florida and Illinois.Martin Cate,who owns the tiki lounge Smuggler’s Cove in San Francisco, says the US is seeing“a boom in domestic rum production that we really haven’t seen since colonial America”.But he says that while rum has the advantage of being an“approachable”drink with an attractive price point compared with whisky and tequila, he believes that it faces challenges to gain market share.“Rum still has a long way to go in terms of the name-brand recognition that whisky,tequilas and vodkas enjoy.The brand loyalty that exists with vodkas and scotch is much more sporadic in rum,”he says.“But when it’s at its best,it’s as sophisticated,as complex and as enjoyable as any other premium aged fine spirit.”By the time of the American Revolution,how many gallons of rum could the US colonies produce within a year?∙4m∙3m∙9m资料来源:育明考研考博官网∙5mWhich quality of rum has drawn Mr Brown and fellow spirits experts?∙Variety∙Compatibility∙Unicity∙ComplexityWhich of the following is mentioned as one of the

6. 办报纸。影响最大的有梁启超任主笔的上海《时务报》、严复主办的天津《国闻报》以 及湖南的《湘报》等。 (二)维新派与守旧派的论战 1. 首先,要不要变法。守旧派坚持“祖宗之法不可变”,否则就是“违背天理”。而维新派 指出,自然界和人类社会都是不断发展变化的。中国面临被瓜分的严重危机,“能变则全, 不变则亡,全变则强,小变仍亡”。只有维新变法,才能挽救危亡。 2. 其次,要不要兴民权、设议院,实行君主立宪。守旧派认为,“民权之说无一益而有百害”。 维新派则运用西方资产阶级政治学说,对封建君主专制制度进行批判,认为只有,“兴民权”、 “开议院”,实行君主立宪,才是当时中国理想的政治方案。 3. 最后,要不要废八股、改科举和兴西学。守旧派反对西学,科举八股是绝对不能触动的。 而维新派则痛斥八股取士的科举制度是封建统治者“牢笼天下”的愚民政策,因此要救中国 必须废八股、改科举,办学堂、兴西学。 维新派与守旧派的这场论战,实质上是资产阶级思想与封建主义思想在中国的第一次正面交 锋。论战所涉及的领域十分广泛,进一步开阔了新型知识分子的眼界,解放了人们长期受到 束缚的思想,也开始改变社会风气,为维新变法运动作了思想舆论准备。 (三)百日维新 1. 1898 年 6 月 11 日,光绪帝颁布了“明定国是”谕旨,宣布开始变法,史称“戊戌变法”, 又称“百日维新”。其内容主要有: ①政治方面:改革行政机构,裁撤闲散、重叠机构,撤销湖北、广东、云南三省“督抚同城” 的巡抚,裁汰冗员,澄清吏治,提倡廉政,提倡向皇帝上书言事,准许旗人自谋生计,取消 他们享受国家供养的特权。 ②经济方面:保护、奖励农工商业和交通采矿业,中央设立农工商总局与铁路矿务总局,各 省设立商务局,提倡开办实业,奖励发明创造,注重农业发展,提倡西法垦殖,建立新式农 场,广办邮政,修筑铁路,在上海、汉口等大城市开办商学、商报,设立商会等各类组织, 改革财政,编制国家预决算。 ③军事方面:裁减旧式绿营兵,改练新式陆军,采用西洋兵制,练洋操,习洋枪等。 ④文化教育方面:创设京师大学堂,各省书院改为高等学堂,在各地设立中、小学堂,提倡 西学,废除八股,改试策论,并经济特科,设立译书局,翻译外国书籍,派人出国留学,奖 励新著,奖励创办报刊,准许自由组织学会。

测试中可能遇到的词汇和知识:acquisition收购veteran老手hedge fund对冲基金peers同行Hollywood talent agent UTA expands into global music business(637words)By Shannon Bond in New York------------------------------------------------------United Talent Agency is expanding into the global music business with the acquisition of The Agency Group of the UK, as the Hollywood agency boosts its financial firepower with an investment from ValueAct Capital’s Jeffrey Ubben.The move to raise UTA’s profile comes as the fiercely competitive talent management sector is being rocked by a new round of inter-agency wars and as the broader media business is undergoing a sweeping digital shift.The purchase of TAG,whose line-up of more than2,000 clients includes Mariah Carey,Ringo Starr,The Black Keys and Dolly Parton,significantly increases UTA’s representation 资料来源:育明考研考博官网资料来源:育明考研考博官网of big global touring acts.“Our desire and appetite to grow in the music business really mirrored [The Agency Group’s]desire and appetite to provide a much more complete platform for their artists,”said Jeremy Zimmer,UTA chief executive.TAG was founded in 1981by Neil Warnock,a music industry veteran who has represented acts including the Rolling Stones,The Doors and Michael Jackson.It has expanded aggressively in recent years to represent global clients from seven offices in Britain,US,Sweden and Canada.Mr Warnock will become UTA’s head of worldwide music.Gavin O’Reilly,TAG’s chief executive who joined in 2013and who was previously chief executive of Ireland’s Independent News &Media,is leaving the company.UTA is boosting its financial muscle with a minorityinvestment from Mr Ubben,founder of ValueAct,the US activist hedge fund that holds stakes in 21st Century Fox and Rolls-Royce.In addition to helping fund the purchase of TAG,theinvestment will provide growth capital and fund strategic initiatives.Mr Ubben will join UTA’s board as a non-voting member.“We want access to somebody who really understands how businesses expand,how businesses continue to provide a smart transition for the next generation of executives,all the things that fast-growing businesses deal with,”Mr Zimmer said.Like its larger rivals Creative Artists Agency and William Morris Endeavor,UTA has been expanding its range ofservices from its traditional business representing Hollywood actors,directors and writers to areas including branding,资料来源:育明考研考博官网corporate marketing,digital strategy and investing.However,Mr Zimmer said UTA’s primary focus remains on representing artists and advising them on the opportunities created by new technologies and platforms.“Where some of our colleagues are trying to diversify out of representation and get into much more broad ownership of businesses,we’re really doubling down on the representation business,”he said.“We believe that representing artists,to have opportunities to connect with a fan base,that’s a super powerful business to be in,whether with musicians,actors or fine artists.”Earlier this year,UTA won 12agents and a number ofhigh-profile clients including Kanye West,Chris Pratt and Will Ferrell from CAA in one of the industry’s largest defections in decades.Unlike its bigger peers,UTA has not pursued private equity backing in the course of its growth.CAA’s majorityshareholder is TPG,and WME’s recent $2.3bn purchase of IMG was backed by Silver Lake,the technology-focused private equity firm.Mr Zimmer said UTA had looked at different ways to bring in outside financing but the company was “not comfortable with the traditional structure of private equity”investment.“The investment from Jeff is a very different kind ofinvestment.He’s a private individual —he has no controls on the business and no rights over how we operate on aday-to-day basis.And there’s no built-in exit provision that puts a ticking clock on the relationship.”Mr Ubben is a long-time value investor who has been involved in dealmaking and overhauls at companies includingMicrosoft and Valeant.He played a role in Thomson’s 2007acquisition of Reuters,as the UK news and data company’s second-biggest shareholder,and he served as chairman ofMartha Stewart Living Omnimedia following Martha Stewart’s indictment.Which company will be acquired by UTA?∙Cosmos Music∙The Agency Group∙Soundcloud∙ValueAct CapitalWhich company is UTA’s model in the music business?∙ECG∙TPG∙TAG∙CAAHow can we describe TAG in the music industry?∙inexperienced∙Operating rich∙callow∙evilWho is CAA’s majority shareholder?∙IMG资料来源:育明考研考博官网∙UTA∙TAG∙WME好莱坞UTA进军音乐领域解析:B文章第一段,UTA将要收购世界最大的独立音乐代理公司The Agency Group。

测试中可能遇到的词汇和知识:enthuse充满热情地说commodity商品wariness小心jargon术语hype夸张的广告宣传clout影响力Fear and greed drive China’s online to offline commerce craze(764words)By Richard Waters------------------------------------------------------Sometimes,simply invoking the latest hot consumer internet trend is not enough.Chinese search engine Baidu learned that late last month,as its deepening investment in so-called“online to offline”commerce,or O2O, left a chill on its stock price.In China,O2O has been all the rage.But the term has been slapped on such a broad range of businesses that it has become meaningless.Chinese consumers,for instance,think the most useful aspect of O2O is going to a physical store to pick up and return things bought online,according to consultancy firm McKinsey.Others use the term to describe online ordering of local services from independent suppliers.Elsewhere in the world this is known as the on-demand economy.资料来源:育明考研考博官网Low labour costs in China have made this model particularly attractive, according to its supporters.Local media enthuse breathlessly about manicurists who can make a multiple of the median wage and tour guides who are suddenly a hot commodity.Investor wariness is therefore understandable.Some of the old categories of the consumer internet are breaking down,and it is not entirely clear what lasting new business models will emerge—let alone who will come out on top.O2O,internet-plus,on-demand,full-stack start-ups—all of thehalf-formed jargon being applied to these new approaches is one indication of the definitional vagueness.It also leaves room for plenty of hype.Of the many different O2O services being promoted,the most effective seem to link an online user interface to a service or product that has not been deeply touched by the internet.Silicon Valley venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz calls these“full-stack start-ups”,because they offer a more integrated style of commerce.Companies claiming part of this new market come in many shapes,but they share two broad aims.One is to vacuum up online orders in volume,giving them extra clout in negotiations with real-world retailers or service providers.Dominant digital platforms that are able to aggregate large numbers of users—a trend accelerated by the shift to mobile apps—have been the main forces behind this.In China,all but one of the15most actively used mobile apps is owned by or associated with one of the three leading internet companies:Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent.That is according to Weibo,the Twitter-like service that is itself affiliated with Alibaba.Some specialist apps have had enough of a headstart that they have been able to establish themselves as platforms in their own right.Uber and Airbnb are prime examples.But many others are likely to be drawn into the orbits of the big internet companies,which have the ecommerce capabilities to support their operations.This points to the second common aim of companies in the O2O space:they want to deliver an end-to-end service,from collecting an order to 资料来源:育明考研考博官网arranging for a service and handling the payment.Having a digital wallet offering is both a key part of“closing the loop”and,potentially,a highly profitable opportunity in its own right.One question hanging over the heads of these companies is whether they can keep the high-margin online profits to themselves while shuffling off the more prosaic“offline”aspects of the job to others.In the US,this is under threat due to legal questions about whether the independent contractors that on-demand companies use to keep their costs low should be reclassified as employees.However,another even bigger issue is how defensible these new businesses will be in the long run.For now,money is being poured into subsidisinga land grab,as companies race to offer services at below cost to signup users.In a bull market—where user numbers rather than profits are the key—the sums being committed are huge.Once the dust settles,the companies that have signed up the most customers will be in control.Barriers to entry and switching costs for users will allow them to raise prices.But this is still only a theory.Those business that will not make it into the ranks of major platform players will face an even more uncertain future.That explains the recent nervousness of Baidu’s investors,but the company has few options.Growth in PC-based online markets is slowing and established ways of making money—like the lead-based advertising on Baidu’s search engine—are under threat from the rise of the smartphone.This is one internet craze that is being driven as much by fear as greed.Which of the following factors in China have made the O2O modelparticularly attractive?∙Grand online market∙A great number of customers∙Low labour costs资料来源:育明考研考博官网∙Support from the governmentWhich of the following names is not mentioned as one of the O2O’s alternative name?∙Internet-plus∙On-demand∙Full-stack start-ups∙Internet-to-offlineWhich of the following platforms is mentioned as affiliated with Alibaba?∙Weibo∙Twitter∙Uber∙AirbnbWhich of the following businesses of Baidu is mentioned as beingthreatened by the rise of the smartphone?∙Smartphone-based online market∙Baidu’s O2O platform∙The lead-based advertising on Baidu’s search engine∙Baidu’s search engine解析C文章第三段提到中国的廉价劳动力使得O2O商业模式格外具有吸引力。

2016年对外经济贸易大学翻译硕士基础英语真题
回顾的理论性。

总结应当忠实于自身工作实践活动,但是,总结不是工作实践活动的记录,不能完全照搬工作实践活动的全过程。

它是对工作实践活动的本质概括,要在回顾工作实践活动全过程的基础上,进行分析研究,归纳出能够反映事物本质的规律,把感性认识上升到理性认识,这正是总结的价值所在。

三、总结的分类
根据内容的不同,可以把总结分为工作总结、生产总结、学习总结、教学总结、会议总结等等。

根据范围的不同,可以分为全国性总结、地区性总结、部门性总结、本单位总结、班组总结等。

根据时间的不同,可以分为月总结、季总结、年度总结、阶段性总结等。

从内容和性质的不同,可以分为全面总结和专题总结两类。

四、总结的结构、内容和写法
总结一般由标题、正文和尾部三部分组成。

(一)标题。

总结的标题大体上有两类构成形式:一类是公文式标题;一类是非公文式标题。

公文式标题由单位名称、时间、事由、文种组成,如《××集团公司2000年度思想政治工作总结》、《××县2000年普法工作总结》,有的只写《工作总结》等。

非公文式标题则比较灵活,有的为双行标题,如《增强体质,全面贯彻执行教育方针——开展多种形式的体育活动》,有的为单行标题,如《推动人才交流,培植人才资源》等。

(二)正文。

总结正文的结构由前言、主体、结尾组成。

1、前言。

即正文的开头,一般简明扼要地概述基本情况,交代背景,点明主旨或说明成绩,为主体内容的展开做必要的铺垫。

例如:“群众富不富,关键在支部;干部强不强,关键在班长”。

能否选配好支部“一把手”,是加强
农村基层党组织建设的核心。

在工作中,我们积极围绕支部班子建设这个重点,紧紧抓住配好支部书记这个关键,着力走好“选人”、“育人”、“用人”这三步棋,努力把工作引向深入。

2、主体。

这是总结的核心部分,其内容包括做法和体会,成绩和问题,经验和教训等。

这一部分要求在全面回顾工作情况的基础上,深刻、透彻地分析取得成绩的原因、条件、做法、以及存在问题的根源和教训,揭示工作中带有规律性的东西。

回顾要全面,分析要透彻。

不同类型的总结,内容有所侧重,全面性总结其主体包括两个层次,即成绩和经验,存在的问题和教训。

对于一般的工作总结,重点放在成绩和经验上。

总结正文的结构,主要采用逻辑结构形式。

全面性总结根据过去一段工作中的成绩和问题,或者经验和教训的内在联系去组织材料。

专题性总结以经验为轴心去组织材料。

3、结尾。

可以概述全文,可以说明好经验带来的效果,可以提出今后努力方向或改进意见。

例如:
通过上述工作,促使支部书记和班子整体作用的发挥。

不少村支部书记提出“任职一届、致富一方”,也出现了一批“舍小家,顾大家”的支部书记先进典型。

(三)尾部。

包括署名和时间两项内容。

如果标题中已有署名,这里可不再写。

五、撰写总结应注意的问题
(一)首先要有实事求是的态度。

工作总结中,常常出现两种倾向:一种是好大喜功,搞浮夸,只讲成绩,不谈问题;另一种是将总结写成了“检讨书”,把工作说成一无是处。

这两种都不是实事求是的态度。

总结的特点之一“回顾的理论性”,正是反映在如实地、一分为二地分析、评价自己的工作上,对成绩,不要夸大;对问题,不要轻描淡写。

(二)总结要写得有理论价值。

一方面,要抓主要矛盾,无论谈成绩或谈存在问题,都不要面面俱到。

另一方面,对主要矛盾要进行深入细致的分析,谈成绩要写清怎么做的,为什么这样做,效果如何,经验是什么;谈存在问题,要写清是什么问题,为什么会出现这种问题,其性质是什么,教训是什么。

这样的总结,才能对前一段的工作有所反思,并由感性认识上升到理性认识。

(三)总结要用第一人称。

即要从本单位、本部门的角度来撰写。

表达方式以叙述、议论为主,说明为辅,可以夹叙夹议。

调查报告,就是单位或个人把对某个问题调查的情况,向有关领导部门或群众报告。

它是对客观存在的事物有目的进行深入细致的实地调查,通过各种方法和途径,掌握大量的情况和材料,然后作认真的分析研究,努力找出事物的本质,弄清它的发展规律,有根有据地写成的报告。

调查报告所反映的对象,可以是某一事、某一人、某一单位、某一方面的情况,也可以是揭示经验或揭露问题。

调查报告的种类很多,大致可以分为:典型经验的调查,揭露问题和矛
盾的调查,某一事物历史沿革的调查,新情况新事物的调查,以及基本情况的调查等等。

不同类型的调查报告,写法不尽相同,大体情况是:
(1)标题,主要有三种形式:
公文式标题。

一般由介词"关于"加调查事由、文种组成,如《关于农村基层党组织情况的调查报告》。

也有的省略介词"关于"和文种,如《农民负担情况调查》。

正副式标题。

正题揭示调查报告中心思想,副题说明调查的事由或调查范围,并写明"调查报告"或"调查"字样。

文章式标题。

这类调查报告的标题比较灵活,标题中不写出"调查报告"或"调查"的字样。

有的是概括出调查报告的基本内容,如《带领村民共同致富的坚强战斗堡垒》;有的是采取提问的形式,如《这里的干群关系为什么这样好?》。

(2)开头,各类调查报告的开头,主要有以下写法:
第一,交代调查本身情况。

包括调查的起因、调查的内容、调查的对象和范围等。

第二,交代调查对象情况。

包括被调查者各方面的概况或有关自然情况等。

第三,对全文内容作出概括。
