(15 X 2%=30%)Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.In 1939 two brothers, Mac and Dick McDonald, started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernadino, California. They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a barbecue restaurant, and then another drive-in. But in their new operation, they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this small selection they added one new concept: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity, for the brothers had developed a strict routine for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks' sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became incredibly popular, particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success until they met Ray Kroc.Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954, when he was selling milk shake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the unique appeal of the brothers' fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise other copies of their restaurants. The agreement struck included the right to duplicate the menu. The equipment, even their red and white buildings with the golden arches.Today McDonald's is really a household name. Its names for its sandwiches have come to mean hamburger in the decades since the day Ray Kroc watched people rush up to orderfifteen-cent hamburgers. In 1976, McDonald's had over $ 1 billion in total sales. Its firsttwenty-two years is one of the most incredible success stories in modern American business history.1. This passage mainly talks about.A)the development of fast food servicesB)how McDonald's became a billion-dollar businessC)the business careers of Mac and Dick McDonaldD)Ray Kroc's business talent2. Mac and Dick managed all of the following businesses except.A)a drive-in B)a cinema C)a theater D)a barbecue restaurant3. We may infer from this passage that.A)Mac and Dick McDonald never became wealthy for they sold their idea to KrocB)The location the McDonalds chose was the only source of the great popularity of their drive-in C)Forty years ago there were numerous fast-food restaurantsD)Ray Kroc was a good businessman4. The passage suggests that.A)creativity is an important element of business successB)Ray Kroc was the close partner of the McDonald brothersC)Mac and Dick McDonald became broken after they sold their ideas to Ray KrocD)California is the best place to go into business5. As used in the second sentence of the third paragraph, the word “unique ”means. A)special B)financial C )attractive D)peculiarPassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.We can see how the product life cycle works by looking at the introduction of instant coffee. When it was introduced, m ost people did not like it as well as “regular” coffee, and it took several years to gain general acceptance (introduction stage). At one point, though, instant coffee grew rapidly in popularity, and many brands were introduced (stage of rapid growth). After a while, people became attached to one brand and sales leveled off (stage of maturity). Sales went into a slight decline. when freeze-dried coffees were introduced (stage of decline).The importance of the product life cycle to marketers is this: Different stages in the product life cycle call for different strategies. The goal is to extend product life so that sales and profits do not decline. One strategy is called market modification. It means that marketing managers look for new users and market sections. Did you know, for example, that the backpacks that so many students carry today were originally designed for the military? Market modification also means searching for increased usage among present customers or going for a different market, such as senior citizens. A marketer may re-position the product to appeal to new market sections.Another product extension strategy is called product modification. It involves changing product quality, features, or style to attract new users or more usage from present users. American auto manufacturers are using quality improvement as one way to recapture world markets. Note, also, how auto manufacturers once changed styles dramatically from year to year to keep demand from falling.6. According to the passage, when people grow fond of one particular brand of a product, its sales will ________.A) decrease graduallyB) remain at the same levelC) become unstableD) improve enormously(B)7. The first paragraph tells us that a new product is ________.A) not easily accepted by the publicB) often inferior to old ones at firstC) often more expensive than old onesD) usually introduced to satisfy different tastes(A)8. Marketers need to know which of the four stages a product is in so as to ________.A) promote its productionB) work out marketing policiesC) speed up its life cycleD) increase its popularity(B)9. The author mentions the example of “backpacks” (Line 4, Para. 2) to show the importance of ________.A) pleasing the young as well as the oldB) increasing usage among studentsC) exploring new market sectionsD) serving both military and civil needs(C)10. In order to recover their share of the world market, U.S. auto makers are ________.A) improving product qualityB) increasing product featuresC) modernizing product styleD) re-positioning their product in the market(A)Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.In 1960-1961, Chad (乍得)harvested 9800 tons of cotton seed for the first time in its history, and put out the flag a little too soon. The efforts of the authorities to get the peasants back to work, as they had slacked off (松懈)a great deal the previous year during independence celebrations, largely contributed to it. Also, rains were well spaced, and continued through the whole month of October. If the 1961-1962 total is back to the region of 45000 tons, it is mostly because efforts slackened again and sowing was started too late.The average date of sowing is about July 1st. If this date is simply moved up fifteen or twenty days, 30000 to 60000 tons of cotton are gained, depending on the year. The peasant in Chad sows his millet (小米)first, and it is hard to criticize this instinctive priority given to his daily bread. An essential reason for his lateness with sowing cotton is that at the time when he should leave to prepare the fields he has just barely sold the cotton of the previous season. The work required to sow, in great heat, is psychologically far more difficult if one's pockets are full of money. The date of cotton sales should therefore be moved forward as much as possible, and purchases of equipment and draught animals encouraged.Peasants should also be encouraged to save money, to help them through the difficult period between harvests. If necessary they should be forced to do so, by having the payments for cotton given to them in installments. The last payment would be made after proof that the peasant has planted before the deadline, the date being advanced to the end of June. Those who have done so would receive extra money whereas the last planters would not receive their last payment until later.Only the first steps are hard, because once work has started the peasants continue willinglyon their way. Educational campaigns among the peasants will play an essential role in this basic advance, early sowing, on which all the others depend. It is not a matter of controlling the peasants.Each peasant will remain master of his fields. One could, however, suggest the need for the time being of kind but firm rule, which, as long as it cannot be realized by the people, should at least be for the people.11. In 1960-1961, Chad had a good harvest of cotton because.A)the government greatly encouraged peasants1.B)rains favored the growth of cottonC)Chad gained independence in the previous yearD)Both A)and B)12. We learn from the passage that the date of sowing cotton is usually.A)on June 15th B)on July 15th C)on July 1st D)on July 20th13. As used in the third sentence of the second paragraph, daily bread refers to. A)breakfast B)bread and butter C)rice D)millet14. In order to help them through the difficult time between harvests the peasants haveto.A)sell cotton in advance B)be encouraged to save moneyC)sow cotton in time D)plant millet first15. Which of the following is NOT true?A)Educational campaigns are very important to early sowing.B)Of all the advances that the writer hopes for, early sowing is the most important.C)Peasants should remain the masters of their fields.D)Government might as well make good and firm rule for peasants.AnswersPart OneMatch the words and the definitions.

关于《世纪商务英语阅读教程》系列教材浅析
关于《世纪商务英语阅读教程》系列教材浅析
摘要:自教育部批准设立商务英语专业以来,该专业蓬勃发展,教学探索日益精进,各系列教材应运而生。

本文以青岛理工大学琴岛学院外语系商务英语专业《商务英语阅读》系列课程所用教材为例,分析此套教材的优缺点,希望为商务英语专业教材的改进及专业的发展做出一定的贡献。

关键词:商务英语阅读课程;商务英语阅读教程;世纪商务英语阅读教程
2009年,《高等学校商务英语专业本科教学要求》(试行)推出,明确提出了商务英语专业本科层次的人才培养目标,并确认了该专业的课程设置,将阅读课程设置为十二门专业核心课之一。

自青岛理工大学琴岛学院外语系成立商务英语专业以来,一直对其阅读课程进行教改,不断研究和分析市场各类阅读教程,现使用教材为“十二五职业教育国家规划教材”系列中的大连理工大学出版社出版的《世纪商务英语阅读教程》。

该套教材主编为刘杰英,共4册,分为基础篇和专业篇系列,每系列各两册,现已更新至2014年第五版。

在使用该套教材过程中,作为工作在一线教学的笔者对此套教材有比较浅薄的认识,现针对此套教材,作出如下分析:
一、教材优点
(一)基础性强
该套教材课程设置结构合理,循序渐进。

其基础篇内容以商务文化及礼仪、企业商务工作为主线,让学生学习英语国家文化和商务礼仪,了解企业工作内容及工作环境,提升职业素养,以适应未来的外事及商务工作。

此外,基础篇教材还融入了英语专业普通阅读教材的特色一一培养学生阅读技巧、注重学生阅读能力。

每个单元配有阅读技巧训练,涵盖了自我阅读技巧、速度技能、理解及应用技能,如:词义猜测、归纳主旨、细节理解、略读、跳读等,使学生在大一阶段能够学习到各种常见的阅读技巧,提高对普通英语材料的`阅读理解能力、商务材料的阅读理解能力和阅读技巧的运用能力,不仅可以满足学生应对大学英语四六级及英语专业四级八级等考试的需要,更能为其英语语言的基础学习打下坚实的基础。

(二)专业度高
商务英语学科是一门跨学科跨专业的综合性学科,该套教材充分抓住了商务英语专业的核心特点,在承接基础篇的基础上,专业篇的学习内容涉及到市场营销、商品定价、风险管理、国际贸易、物流、电子商务、商务法等各方面。

商务知识的补充深入、综合而广泛,为学生进行学习提供了更为丰富的宏观经济内容,使学生了解商务相关行业,具备一定的专业知识,为将来从事相关领域工作打下坚实的理论基础。

(三)创新性强
商务英语是一门不断发展的学科,与时俱进是对该专业教学的基础要求。

该套教材不满足于固步自封,而是通过对企业进行深入调研,结合学生就业需求与社会发展的需要,及时更新教材版本。

我系现使用版本为2014年最新修订的第五版,阅读材料选自最前沿的报刊、杂志等,这就保证了学生能够接触到最实用最前沿的商务专业知识,同时也对授课教师提出挑战,消除了授课教案一成不变的不良教学现象,使得教师与学生共同学习和进步,真正做到与时俱进,符合事物变化发展规律。

(四)实践性强
该套教材每个单元配有相关习题,既有对文章内容的理解又有对所学知识的拓展,题型丰富多样,可以充分检验学生的学习效果。

更设置了期中和期末测试环节,可以分阶段地检验学生宏观学习情况。

此外,每个单元还有与所学内容相关的实践环节,如:保险单据的制作、模拟公司运作等,这也充分调动了学生的学习积极性和动手能力,使学生在掌握丰富的
理论知识的基础上,增强了实战能力,真正做到理论和实践相统一。

二、教材缺点
(一)教材编纂缺乏一定严谨性
笔者在使用该系列教材以来,也发现了其存在一定的不足,由于版本更新速度过快,编辑人员在审校过程中存在时间短,任务重等客观问题,造成教材存在一些错误。

如:专业篇(II)第一单元的主题是介绍国际经济组织,但是引入部分却是介绍产品生命周期,且引入内容与专业篇(I)第二单元产品开发的引入内容完全一致。

(二)配套习题专业度不高
该套教材在其专业篇的习题设置中,部分题目与商务英语内容无关。

笔者认为“专业篇”应以专业性知识为重点,配套习题也应遵循这一原则,选取更为专业的题目供学生练习更符合教材编纂的指导方针。

此外,在专业篇中,由于涉及到大量专业术语加之商务语言具有自身特色,笔者认为应加入翻译练习题,对文中长难句进行翻译,提高学生的双语能力,为日后进行《商务英语翻译》课程的学习打下坚实的基础。

(三)教参设置缺乏一定科学性
该系列教材学生用书现已更新到第五版,但是教参却滞留在第四版,第五版仅更新了答案部分,由于版本更换,教材内容更新较多,因此原有教参已不能满足教师备课的需要,客观上加大了教师的工作量,一定程度上浪费了教师的精力与时间,且原有教参设置缺乏一定科学性,仅提供了与单元主题相关的背景知识、难句分析、单词讲解、汉语译文,对于文章的逻辑结构并没有进行宏观分析,违背了阅读课程作为泛读课程的教学规律,且单词讲解中所给部分示例与商务内容无关。

由于商务语言的特殊性,部分学生熟悉的单词在商务文章中会有专业性解释与用法,教参编撰人员应将此作为单词解析的重点,充分融人BEC、PETS、托业、全国商务英语认证考试等英语水平考试和职业资格认证考试题型,既有助于学生备考,为将来踏人工作岗位提供“敲门砖”,又能培养和提高学生的职业实践应用能力。

三、结束语
《世纪商务英语阅读教程》总体而言瑕不掩瑜,充分满足了商务英语专业学生学习的需要,做到了理论与实践的相结合,我系在今后的教学中会继续使用该套教材,并进行更深入地教材研究,充分发挥其教学指导作用。

希望笔者上述的问题能够得到出版社重视,进行一定程度的修改与提高,使该套教材推广到全国的商务英语教学中。
