Unit Thirteen OpulencePart I Pre-reading Questions1.Have you ever read The Wealth of Nations? How much do you know about the naturalprogress of opulence?答案范例:Yes, I have. As far as I’m concerned, people should first possess something that other people don’t possess. And then they exchange the things they possess with each other to accumulate wealth. The things can be raw materials, manufactured goods, personal skills and so on.2.What are the monetary policies? What are the influential factors in equilibrium interest rate?答案范例:Monetary policies include expansionary, contracted and prudent monetary policies and are the process by which the monetary authority of a country controls the monetary base.The influential factors in equilibrium interest rate are money supply and level of income.3.Can money buy happiness? Why or why not?答案范例:I think money can’t buy happiness, because the true value of life is reflected in our intrinsic heart. A happy family needs our love for family members, so does a happy friendship. And love can’t be bought with money. As long as we have a pair of eyes that can find beauty in the world and be content with our lot, we will be happy, which has nothing to do with money.Part II Extensive Reading段落大意难句解析词汇TEXT A1. 主旨归纳在城镇居民和农村居民之间进行的商业模式具有互惠互利性,城镇和农村的各工种居民的相互帮助促进了城镇的发展和农村的进步。

Chapter 1 Why China Works中国是今年唯一呈现出重大发展的主要经济体(economy),由于它通常是唯一敢于打破经济教科书中每一条例的经济体。
事实上,中国不像其他五大经济体那样发展缓慢的主要原因是,它宏观调控的能力(its capacity for macro-economic control)。
为什么中国市场经济体系奏效?(market economic system)目前,欧美等国正通过银行及汽车业国有化及金融业实施新的有力规定(regulations),走向宏观调控。
但问题更加紧迫(the question has a new urgency)。
中国看上去最能驾驭(navigate)七十年内最糟的经济滑坡(downturn)。
在危机中,中国官员既能吸取像西方同行(counterparts)的传统市场工具,也能吸取中国市场经济体系的积累经验(arsenal)。
去年早期,由于房地产市场(housing market)过热,中国官员仅命令银行削减房贷(cut back on housing loans),然后随着房屋销售量下降(fall),他们提供类似更低的房屋购置税(lower taxes on home purchases)。
最近几周,他们展开类似西方的经济救援行动(launch economic rescue efforts),其中包括价值6000亿的大计划以增加政府开支和大幅利率削减(ramp up government spending)(big interests cuts)。
但同时,他们也发布在西方国家眼里是不合理的干涉的命令,例如,上周中国官员召集包括钢铁建筑等行业的国有行业并购(buy up)国内外新资产(at home and abroad)以积极(actively)发挥在经济中的作用。
曾把中国宏观调控视为不成熟经济的弊病(immature economy),现在是稳定的保障(bulwark of stability)。
商务英语(二)课文英译中
Unit 21.The manufacturer, therefore, has to find the balance between designing a separate car foreach market – which would be exorbitantly costly – and designing one car for all markets.因此,制造商就必须在为每个市场设计一辆不同的车(这当然需要高昂的费用)和为所有市场设计同一款车之间寻求平衡。
2.Such opportunities are not normally available to a company that operates only in onecountry or is only just entering a new country.只在一个国家经营或只进入一个新的国家的公司通常得不到这样的机会。
3.The advent of the Internet and Intranets has the potential to accelerate the process ofmining all markets for relevant information and for features that can be included in new products.互联网和局域网的来临有可能加快发掘所有的市场找到相关信息和能被用到新产品中的特征的过程。
4.The laboratories co-ordinates their efforts by looking at the possibilities of melding productideas arising from different countries.这些实验室通力协作寻求把产生于不同国家的关于产品的想法加以整合的可能性。
5.The product itself may have been developed with reference to observations of present andpotential customers rather than conventional market research.产品本身的开发也许参考了对现有或潜在客户的观察,而不是常规的市场研究。

商务英语阅读教程2——英译汉Business English Reading Tutorial 2 - English to Chinese TranslationOriginal English Text:Translation in Chinese:工作场所的有效沟通有效沟通对任何商业组织的成功至关重要。
它在促进积极的工作环境、增强团队合作和提高总体生产力方面起到了关键作用。
在今天快节奏的商业世界中,有效沟通技巧比以往任何时候都更重要。
有效沟通的关键之一是清晰。
必须清晰准确传达信息,以确保没有误解的空间。
这可以通过使用简单明了的语言,避免可能会让听众困惑的行话或技术术语来实现。
重要的是要意识到接收者的理解水平,并相应地调整沟通方式。
除了清晰度外,积极倾听是有效沟通的另一个关键要素。
聆听他人的想法和关切有助于建立信任和融洽关系。
它还可以提供更好的问题解决和决策能力。
积极倾听包括全神贯注地听讲者说话,保持眼神交流,并提供反馈或提问以显示兴趣和理解。
有效沟通还涉及非语言暗示,如肢体语言、面部表情和语调。
这些非言语暗示可以传递情感、意图和态度,而仅凭文字可能无法表达。
了解自己的非语言沟通并能够阅读和解释他人的非语言暗示可以极大地增强沟通效果。
在技术时代,电子沟通已成为工作场所沟通的重要组成部分。
虽然电子邮件、即时消息和视频会议提供了便利和效率,但它们不能取代面对面的互动。
在虚拟和面对面沟通之间保持平衡是确保信息有效和有意义交流的关键。
最后,反馈对于有效沟通至关重要。
建设性的反馈帮助个人了解自己的长处和弱点,使其能够提高自己的沟通技巧。
反馈应具体、及时和可操作,才能发挥作用。
它应该关注行为或行动,并避免个人批评。
总之,有效沟通对任何商业组织的成功至关重要。
它涉及到清晰度、积极倾听、非语言暗示、电子和面对面沟通的平衡以及建设性反馈。
通过发展和实践这些技能,个人可以成为更有效的沟通者,并为积极和富有成效的工作环境做出贡献。

商务英语阅读教程2 The World AsISeeIt课文
商务英语阅读教程2 The World AsISeeIt课文How strange is the lot of us mortals! Each of us is here for a brief sojourn; for what purpose he knows not, though he sometimes thinks he senses it. But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people—first of all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness is wholly dependent, and then for the many, unknown to us, to whose destinies we are bound by the ties of sympathy. A hundred times every day I remind myself that my inner and outer life are based on the labors of other men, living and dead, and that I must exert myself in order to give in the same measure as I have received and am still receiving. I am strongly drawn to a frugal life and am often oppressively aware that I am engrossing an undue amount of the labor of my fellowmen. I regard class distinctions as unjustified and, in the last resort, based on force. I also believe that a simple and unassuming life is good for everybody, physically and mentally.I do not at all believe in human freedom in thephilosophical sense. Everybody acts not only under external compulsion but also in accordance with inner necessity. Schopenhauer’s saying, “A man can do what he wants, but not want what he wants,” has been a very real inspiration to me since my youth; it has been a continual consolation in the face of life’s hardships, my own and others’, and an unfailing wellspring of tolerance. This realization mercifully mitigates the easily paralyzing sense of responsibility and prevents us from taking ourselves and other people all too seriously; it is conducive to a view of life which, in particular, gives humor its due.To inquire after the meaning or object of one’s own existence or that of all creatures has always seemed to me absurd from an objective point of view. And yet everybody has certain ideals which determine the direction of his endeavors and his judgments. In this sense I have never looked upon ease and happiness as ends in themselves—this ethical basis I call the ideal of a pigsty. The ideals which have lighted my way and time after time have given me new courage to face lifecheerfully, have been Kindness, Beauty, and Truth. Without the sense of kinship with men of like mind, without the occupation with the objective world, the eternally unattainable in the field of art and scientific endeavors, life would have seemed to me empty. The trite objects of human efforts—possessions, outward success, luxury—have always seemed to me contemptible.。

商务英语综合教程2 汉译英
商务英语综合教程2 汉译英原文P19近年来在布鲁塞尔不难看到,英语正以不可遏止的态势日益成为欧洲的通用语言。
哪些母语是英语、懒于学习汉语的人们(的确有这样的人),可以毫不费力地在布鲁塞尔工作或游览,这让人感觉难堪。
在这个迷人的比利时城市,到处可以听到英语,看到英文,并越来越普遍,在水泥和玻璃构成的欧洲区更是如此。
但是,与这一趋势相反的迹象也日益彰显,这倒不是因为怀旧,而是出于经济效益和政治公平的考虑。
非常巧合,在布鲁塞尔你也能看到反对英语成为通用语的态势的增长。
在欧洲区,欧盟的扩张使得英文不仅领先于其他语言,而且出于绝对优势地位。
欧盟号称拥有27个成员国,23种官方语言,但只有重要会议才用翻译;事实上,较低级别的会议中唯一的工作语言是英语。
这对于欧洲是否有益?给人的感觉是这样比较高效,但是对于很多人来说,英语本族语人享有不公平的优势:用母语辩论要容易得多。
并且,对于非英语本族语人来讲,听懂其他国家非英语本族语人的英语是很难的,但对于英国人或爱尔兰人来讲,破译各种口音的英文并非难事。
瑞士经济学家弗兰克斯。
格林(Francois Grin)说,借助英语的优势,英国人每年从邻国隐性获利数十亿欧元。
他给出了多种理由,其中之一是,英国用于学校语言教学的支出,远远少于法国、瑞士等国家。
更令人难以接受的是,英国从教外国人学英语中获利。
In recent years Brussels has been a fine place to observe the irresistible rise of English as Europe’s lingua franca. For native speakers of English who are lazy about learning languages (yes, they exist), Brussels has become embarrassingly easy place to work or visit. English is increasingly audible and visible in this charming Belgian city, and widespread in the conerete-and-grass European quarter. Now , however, signs of a backlash are building. This is not based sentiment, but on points of economic efficiency and political fairness. And in a coincidence, Brussels is again a good place to watch the backlash develop.Start in the European district, where the expansion of the European Union has left English not just ahead of other languages, but in the position of utter dominance. The union now boasts 27 members and 23 official languages, but important meetings use interpreters. At lower levels, as a matter of fact, English is the language spoken.Is this good for Europe? It feels efficient, but being a native English-speaker also seems to many to confer an unfair advantage. It is far easier to argue a point in your mother tongue. It is also hard work for even the best non-native speakers to understand other non-native versions of English, whereas it is no great strain for the British or Irish to decipher the various accents.Francois Grin, a Swiss economist, argues that Britain enjoys hidden transfer from its neighbors worth billions of Euros a year, thanks to the English language. He offers several reasons, starting with spending in Britain on language teaching in schools, which is proportionately lower than in France or Switzerland, say, to add insult to injury Britain profits from teaching English to foreigners.P421986年,飞机制造商们发布了他们第一部简化技术英语(Simplified Technical English)指南,随后被美国航空运输协会(Air Transport Association of America)采用,并自那时起成为一个国际标准。
商务英语阅读(第二版)+大学英语翻译教程(第三版)答案
王关富《商务英语阅读(第二版)》参考答案Unit 1Why China WorksExercises1. Answer the questions on the text:1) How does the author view the Chinese economy?It is the most important bright spot in the world economy under the global recession, the only major economy that is likely to show significant growth this year, and the only one that routinely breaks every rule in the economic textbook. 2) According to the author, why can the Chinese economy perform so well?Because of:(1) the capacity for state control by the Chinese government.(2) its rejection of exotic financial innovations that are the melting core of the global credit crisis.(3) the integration of its economic policies between traditional market tools and state control measures.3) In what way does the author imply that western economists are erroneous in their bias toward “China’s market economic system”?The United States and Europe are moving toward state control by nationalizing their banking and car industries, and imposing heavy new regulation on the financial industry.4) What is the view of Stephen Roach on the Chinese economy system?Investment is the backbone of sustainable growth in the Chinese economy, which works more effectively than other market based systems in times of economic stress.5) Why can China work in the eye of the author?It has followed a radical pragmatism focusing on a slow but steady shift toward freer markets.6) What is regarded as the strategic thinking of the Chinese leaders in market reforms?They understand even under the serious financial crisis that it can stabilize the Chinese market and economy to introduce more sophisticated forms of securitization, including stock index funds, corporate bonds and other debt products. They also realize that, in the course of doing this, they should learn from the mistakes the westerners have made.7) What is the example given to illustrate the steadiness of the Chinese leaders in their policy execution?They continue to allow the value of yuan to rise despite of the American charges and the need for export competitiveness by their own enterprises.8) What is “shock therapy”?It is the economic policy adopted in Russia from 1991 to 1992 that totally deregulated prices and lead to a runaway inflation. It proved to be all shock and no therapy.9) In what ways does the Chinese economic system work efficiently?It can get things done quickly, move in a coherent manner, and marshal its people and resources to a common target: economic growth and prosperity.11) What are the Internet and public opinion used for?For putting pressure on local officials and influencing policy decisions.2. Fill in each blank of the following sentences with one of the phrases in the list given below. Make changes when necessary.1)At a time when the need is growing for mental health services, many countries are unfortunately cutting back on itsspending.2)There is an increasing number of people out of work. But the western media often unfairly label them as lazy andreliable.3)Now that the flow of oil has been stopped by BP, the impact of all the spilled oil and natural gas is still beingmeasured.4)Once again its ability to steer economic policy will be tested against the ability to deliver on services and projectsaimed at growing the economy and jobs.5)Housing prices are incredibly high today. But he bought his house for a song about five years ago.6)As people are complaining high prices, especially those related to daily necessities, the government feels rather urgentto hold down inflation rate immediately.7)Under the new economy policy investors are invited to buy into state-owned enterprises.8)Since a serious gun shooting occurred in Arizona last week, security concerns have trickled down to all places,including residential buildings.9)Social unrest is a daily occurrence in the country nowadays.
