4 How to Negotiate<谈判> with Americans如何与美国人谈判1.美国是一个富有吸引力的市场。
它给世界带来的诸如“股东价值”和“首次公开募股”的商业文化近几年来一直引导着商业思想,并且在未来几年内还将保持。
但是无论是谁,想要在美国取得成功,都必须记住游戏的规则。
2.美国的商业,在《纽约,纽约》这首歌的歌词中是这样描述的:“如果你能在这里取得成功,你就能在别的任何地方取得成功!” 但是愉快的做生意的方法是绝对不够的。
虽然在美国的商业沟通是愉快的和自在的,但是它同时也因为不讲情面而成为焦点。
3.沟通是美国人与生俱来的才能。
双方谈判的时候,闲聊和微笑是很重要的。
美国人比英国人更幽默也更直接。
(that 引导定语从句,可以译为:美国人自由地使用幽默感,这种幽默感比英国人更加直接。
)如果你和美国人谈话,要很放松并且要准备很多笑话来吸引听众的注意力。
4.美国人不拘礼节。
商业伙伴不会在他们的名片上写他们的毕业院校。
会议期间会提供一些用塑料瓶或盒子装的三明治和饮料。
你的生意伙伴很可能会在办公室随意地做一些事情或聊他们的家庭。
5.“时间就是金钱”这种态度在美国的生意场上的影响力比其他任何领域都强。
在简单的寒暄之后,美国谈判双方很快地切入主题,甚至社会上举办的联欢会都会被利用来讨论生意。
6.美国人做生意很注重实效,他们就是想赢。
相比之下,发展与商业伙伴的个人关系(与得到的谈判结果相比)就不是那么重要了。
7.而且美国谈判者想最快地获得结果。
金融情况时刻受到关注(或直译为“财务业绩每季上报”),这对在短期内保证收益很重要。
因此,许多美国契约在前言里面包含“时间就是生命”这一条款。
所以美国人谈判很性急,但这不应该被理解为无礼,而是因为“时间就是金钱”的理念在起作用。
8.因为战略合作和其他的长期项目都是以其潜在的快速投资回报率来进行评价的,这种态度会对谈判有很大的影响。
(本句也可译为:“时间就是金钱”的这种态度对谈判具有很大的影响,因为,战备合作和其他的长期项目都是以获得快速投资回报的潜能来进行评价的。

51. Those Fascinating Northern Lights 迷人的北极光(2016新增)1. At 10:00 p.m. on March 23,1969, the Bowater Power Water Company in Deer Lake, Newfoundland experienced a disturbance on its system. The frequency converter at Comer Brook tripped off, shutting down half of the big paper mill. There was a radio blackout over most of the Atlantic Provinces. And accompanying these activities was a magnificient display of northern lights —boiling up out of the north and hanging in bundles of long rays like draperies across the sky. Ninety-three million miles away, a rather ugly looking sunspot was making its way across the disc of the sun.1. 1969年3月23曰晚上10点,保华特水电公司(the Bowater Power Water Company)位于纽芬兰(Newfoundland)鹿湖的设备系统出现了异常;科纳布鲁克(ComerBrook)的变频器跳间,使得一半的大造纸厂停产;大西洋沿岸各省的无线电中断。
中石油2016通用英语选读课文53Oil Refining石油炼制
53. Oil Refining石油炼制1.Primary Refining1.粗炼2.Petroleum refining is the process of separating the many compounds<混合物> present<目前的> in crude petroleum.This process is called fractional distillation<分馏>where the crude oil is heated;the various compounds boil at different temperatures and change to gases;and are later recondensed<v再浓缩,再凝结> back into liquids.The primary refining processes are the distillation<n.(蒸馏(过程);蒸馏物;蒸流;升华>of the feedstock<n给料,进料>into its basic fractions<馏分>,and then the re-distillation of these,in separate towers,into highly concentrated<浓缩的,浓度的>intermediates<n媒介,半成品adj中间的>.2.石油炼制是将原油中的多种混合物进行分离的过程。
原油经过加热后,其中的不同组分将在不同的温度下沸腾并气化,随后又经冷凝浓缩转化为液体,这个过程称为分馏。
粗炼工序是将进料蒸馏成为其基本组分,然后再将这些组分在单独的炼塔中再蒸馏成为高浓度的半成品。
3.Distillation is the start of the refining process where the crude oil is split<分开,分裂>into a number of parts or cuts.The separation is made on the basis of boiling-point and groups of hydrocarbons boiling within a certain range are produced. The theory of distillation is very easy.The longer the carbon chain,the higher the temperature at which the compounds will boil.When crude oil boils,it sends out vapor<蒸汽> and condenses<冷凝>.All the different hydrocarbons in crude oil are at different temperatures.And their vapors all make separate liquids (fractions).The split are usually grouped into three categories:light distillates(LPG<液化石油气>,gasoline<汽油>,naphtha<n石脑油>),middle distillates(kerosene<煤油>,diesel<柴油>),heavy distillates and residuum<n剩余,残渣>(heavy fuel oil,lubricating oils<润滑油>,wax<蜡>,asphalt<n沥青>).3.蒸馏是炼油工艺流程的开始。

中石油职称英语考试课文详解
中石油职称英语考试课文详解中石油职称英语考试通常包含一篇阅读理解课文,考察考生对文章内容的理解和分析。
为了帮助考生更好地准备考试,本文将对中石油职称英语考试课文进行详细解析。
课文:《The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on the Oil and Gas Industry》Artificial intelligence (AI) has been widely adopted in various industries, including oil and gas. With its advanced algorithms and machine learning capabilities, AI has great potential to revolutionize the way the oil and gas industry operates.Firstly, AI can improve exploration and production processes. By analyzing vast amounts of geological and seismic data, AI algorithms can identify potential drilling locations with higher accuracy. This not only reduces exploration costs but also increases the success rate of finding new oil and gas reserves.Secondly, AI can enhance operational efficiency. In oil and gas production, AI-powered systems can monitor equipment conditions in real-time and predict failures before they occur. By implementing preventive maintenance based on these predictions, companies can minimize downtime and improve overall operational efficiency.Moreover, AI can optimize the refining process. With AI algorithms, refineries can adjust production parameters in real-time to maximize outputand minimize energy consumption. This not only increases productivity but also reduces costs and environmental impact.Additionally, AI can improve safety in the oil and gas industry. By analyzing sensor data and monitoring worker behavior, AI systems can detect potential safety hazards and provide early warnings. This helps prevent accidents and ensures the well-being of employees.Despite the numerous benefits, there are also challenges associated with the adoption of AI in the oil and gas industry. One major challenge is the data quality and availability. AI algorithms rely on high-quality and large-scale data for accurate analysis and predictions. However, acquiring and managing such data can be a complex and costly process.Furthermore, there are concerns about the impact of AI on jobs in the industry. AI-powered systems have the potential to automate various tasks that were previously done by humans. While this can increase efficiency, it may also lead to job displacement and require workers to acquire new skills to adapt to the changing landscape.To address these challenges, companies in the oil and gas industry need to invest in data infrastructure and talent development. They should prioritize collecting and managing high-quality data, as well as training their employees to work effectively with AI systems.In conclusion, artificial intelligence has a significant impact on the oil and gas industry. From exploration and production to refining and safety, AI has the potential to revolutionize various aspects of the industry. However, challenges related to data and workforce need to be addressed for successfulimplementation. Companies should embrace AI and invest in the necessary resources to fully leverage its benefits.。

Instead it is up to<应由、适于> each individual<每个人> to figure out<想出、理解> what’s acceptable<可以接受的> and what’s not. This actually makes it harder to dress appropriately<合适地、适当地>,but fortunately<幸运地> most offices also send out<发出、送出> a few signals.每个办公室都有其着装之道,但在当今较随便的工作场合中,着装规则并不总是明文写出。
这就需要每位职员自己弄清楚什么是可以接受的,什么是不被接受的。
这实际上增加了得体着装的难度,但好在大多数办公室也发出一些信号。

1. The Value of Time 时间的价值1."Time" says the proverb "is money". This means that every moment well-spent may put some money into our pockets. If our time is usefully employed, it will either produce some useful and important piece of work which will fetch its price in the market, or it will add to our experience and increase our capacities so as to enable us to earn money when the proper opportunity comes. There can thus be no doubt that time is convertible into money. Let those who think nothing of wasting time remember this; let them remember that an hour misspentis equivalent to the loss of a banknote; and that an hour utilized is tantamount to so much silver or gold; and then they will probably think twice before they give their consent to the loss of any part of their time.1.employ v. 使用,采纳,聘用,使忙于employer n. 雇主,老板 employee n. 雇,从人 employment n. 使用,,聘用Employment rate 就率,聘用率2.Either ⋯ or ⋯要么⋯要么⋯ ; 二者一的Neither ⋯ nor ⋯二者都不Both ⋯ and ⋯二者都3.fetch 取来,接来,抵达4.add to 增加,增加,加5.so as to 以便,致使6.enable sb to do sth 使得某人做某事7.

50. The Earth's Learning Curve[n.曲线].人类的学习曲线、1. Imagine a chart that begins when man first appeared on the planet and tracks[追踪]the economic growth of societies from then forward. It would be a long, flat line until the late 16th or early 17th century, when it would start trending upward. Before then the fruits of productive[adj.有创造性的] labor were limited to a few elites-princes, merchants and priests[(priest):n.教士,牧师]. For most of humankind life was as the English philosopher[n.哲学家]Thomas Hobbes famously described it in 1651-"solitary[adj.孤单的], poor, nasty[adj.肮脏的], brutish[adj.粗野的], and short[adj.浅薄的]." But as Hobbes was writing those words, the world around him was changing. Put simply, human beings were getting smarter.1、想象一下,如果从人类首次在地球上出现开始画一条曲线,追踪在此之后人类社会的经济发展轨迹,那么会发现16世纪晚期或17世纪初期之前,是一条长长的没有多少起伏的线条,之后这条线才开始上扬。
