二、名词解释（用中文回答，2题*5分，共计10分）

1、Reverse logistics

2、Third Party Logistics

三、中英互译（4题*15分，共计60分）

1、物流是一个知识系统，它与高程度的市场交换关系发展关联。然而在形成和发展市场经济过程中，物流作为经济系统管理实用工具和国家经济管理理论与方法的一部分，获得第二次生命。

2、In inventory management, high stock levels are often seen as wasteful in themselves, but are also symptoms of other more pervasive waste within the organization. Over-production will obviously give high stocks of finished goods, while poor procurement can give high stocks of raw materials. The effects are, however, usually more subtle than this. Bottlenecks in a process, or processes that are too long, give higher stocks of work in progress; unreliable suppliers encourage higher stocks of raw materials; poor delivery schedules to customers give high stock of finished goods; poor quality materials encourage higher stocks throughout the organization. The lean approach says that reducing stock saves money directly, and it also highlights problems that are currently hidden. Once these problems are identified,

there is an incentive to solve them and improve overall performance.

3、Suppose you are in charge of supply chain management for a retailer with 1,150 store outlets, eight distribution centers, and a network of 600 vendors. You are tasked with building the optimal supply chain to support three times the current business volume seven years from today.

The DCs are already jammed with inbound shipments and outbound store delivery truckloads, and the DC managers are asking for more space just to support the current demand.

What do you do

If eight DCs are already struggling to support existing business volume, how many more DCs would you need to support an expansion plan to, say, 3,500 stores This situation actually presents a golden opportunity for a thorough review and possible reengineering of the supply chain infrastructure and process.

When determining how to enhance supply chain performance, consider three critical elements: purchase orders, infrastructure, and logistics management process and technology.

4、Website has enormous implications for business. A company that neglects its website may be committing commercial suicide. A website is increasingly becoming the gateway to a company’s b rand, products and services—even if the firm does not sell online. A useless website suggests a useless company, and a rival is only a mouse-click away. But even the coolest website will be lost in cyberspace (通讯、信息空间) if people cannot find it, so companies have to ensure that they appear high up in internet search results.

For many users, a search site is now their point of entry to the internet. The search business has also developed one of the most effective forms of advertising on the internet. And it is already the best way to reach some consumers: teenagers and young men spend more time online than watching television. All this means that search is turning into the internet’s next big battleground.
