3. Firm Offer and Non-firm Offer
(1) A firm offer is a promise to sell at a stated price and condition within a stated period of time (a certain time limit). It usually contains such expressions as “for acceptance within... days”, “firm offer”, “be valid before...”, etc. The firm offer creates a power of acceptance permitting the offeree by accepting the offer to transform the offeror’s promise into a contractual obligation. Thus, once it has been accepted it cannot be withdrawn.
(2) A quotation is not an “offer” in the legal sense. A quotation is merely a notice of the price of certain goods at which the sellers are willing to sell. It is not legally binding as a firm offer if the sellers later decide not to sell. The price is subject to change without previous notice. However, if a quotation is made together with all necessary terms and conditions of sales, it amounts to an offer. So, these two words are sometimes confusing in use.

Reasons for International Trade
Chinese
Patterns of Demand Patterns of demand may also differ among countries. For example, if people in Country A like beef more than lamb, and people in Country B like lamb more than beef, then it will benefit both countries to produce beef and lamb and to export the one they like less in return for the one they like more. This kind of trade is mainly based on different consumption preferences. Economies of Scale Trade may occur because of economies of scale, that is, the cost advantages of large-scale production. Economy of scale is achieved through a larger order book and better utilization of company resources. For example, Country A and Country B may have the same capability in producing cars and computers, but the cost for the production of them will decrease if the goods are produced on a large scale. Both countries may find it advantageous if each were to specialize completely in the production of one and import the other. Innovation or Variety of Styles Even though one country produces enough cars at reasonable costs to meet its own demand and even to export some, it may still import cars from other countries for innovation or variety of sblems in International Trade

3. Clearness/Clarity (清楚) Make sure that your letter is so clear that it cannot be misunderstood. A
point that is ambiguous in a letter will cause trouble to both sides, and further exchange of letters for explanation will become inevitable, thus time will be lost. You must try to express yourself clearly. To achieve this, you should keep in mind the purpose of your letter and use appropriate words in correct sentence structure to fully convey your meaning. When you are sure about what you want to say, say it in plain, simple words. Short, familiar, conversational and straightforward English is what is needed for business letters.

It is of two types, tangible (physical) and intangible ( non- physical). All productsoffered on a market can be placed between Tangible (Pure Product) and Intangible (Pure Service) items.Part SixThere are 3 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice. (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.

Comprehensive Reading
An efficient reader can identify the main point in a text by reading only the first one or two paragraphs and the last one or two. This is especially the case in long articles where you may see the words Introduction, Summary or Conclusion. We can call this a “beginning/end principle”. The beginning and the end of long texts often have the most important information. Now you may practice this principle by reading Text A.

The early immigrants who were English Puritans settled down in northeast part of American. The environment there was very rough but they believed the poor land could purify their mind so they chose the place along the coast. From 1607 to 1892, frontiers were pushed further west. The American frontier consisted of the relatively unsettled regions of the United States, usually found in the western part of the country. The frontiersmen looked for a land of rich resources and a land of promise, opportunity and freedom. Actually they looked for a better life. So individualism, self-reliance, and equality of opportunity have perhaps been the values most closely associated with the frontier heritage of American. 2. Ethnic Diversity

Why American Culture is Unique
American culture is unique because it is nurtured, formed and developed under certain conditions, which are characteristically American. The major factors contributing to the making of this new nation and the forming of a new culture are the hard environment, ethnic diversity (多民族) and plural religion, which is quite different from other nations in the world. What is more, these elements are still influencing the American culture. 1. Rough Environment
