For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice. Then write down the correct answerin the brackets for each question or statement. This section totals 20 points, two points for each question.Passage OneThe UK is extremely dependent on foreign trade. About 40 per cent of the population’s food and a large proportion of the raw materials used by industry have to be imported. In 1980 exports of goods and services were equal to about 25 per cent of the Gross National Product.In the exports of manufactures, the UK, in recent years, has done less well than her major competitors. The UK’s share of the value of the main manufacturing countries’ exports fell from 16 percent in 1980 to about 9 per cent in 1999. This was due to the fact that the volume of UK exports increased at an annual average rate of 5 per cent, only about one-half the rate achieved by the main manufacturing countries as a whole and about one-third the rate for Japan.Changes in the commodity composition of exports have been very small in recent years. The share of manufactured goods has increased slightly while the share of basic materials has declined. There has been a steady decline in the share of textiles and an increase in the share of chemicals in total exports. Over the next decade the possibility of exporting North Sea Oil and the diminishing dependence on imported oil should have a beneficial effect on the UK’s visible trade balance.The most striking change in the geographical distribution of UK exports in recent years has been the swing away from the traditional Commonwealth markets and a growing dependence on the market in Western Europe. Exports to Western Europeaccounted for about5 / 1434 per cent of UK exports in 1989 but by 2000 this share had grown to nearly 60 per cent. This is much in line with developments in world trade as a whole, because trade between industrialized countries has been the fastest growing sector of world trade. The other important development is the growing importance of the markets in the oil-exporting countries.()1. The export of manufactures of U.K. during recent years .A. has risen.B. has done better than the major competitors.C. has fallenD. has done less well that developing countries.()2. The export of textiles .A. has declinedB. has declined sharplyC. has increased slightlyD. has increased sharply()3. The export of basic materials .A. has increasedB. has declinedC. has remained steadyD. has little changed()4. What is the most striking change in UK exports?A. The swing away from the traditional Commonwealth markets and a growingdependence on the market in Western Europe.B. Changes in the commodity composition of exports.C. The increase of the share of manufactured goods and the decline of the share ofbasic materials.D. the beneficial effect of the export of oil on the UK’s visible trade balance.()5. Which statement is not true?A. UK is exporting more to Western Europe.B. trade between UK and Western Europe has been the fastest growing sector of6 / 14world trade.C. UK will possibly import less oil over the next decade.D. UK is exporting more chemicals.Passage TwoIs a quiet revolution under way in the nation’s shopping habits? Are we gradually allowing an increasingly select number of large companies to take care of all our basic requirements? The supermarket chains certainly hope so. ‘Peop le don’t have the time to shop around any more. If they’re happy with the quality of a company’s service, then they’re likely to buy other product types from them as well,’ says Jim Austin, an industry analyst.With the major supermarket brands such as Tesco, J Sainsbury and Asda already offering financial services, credit cards, own-label clothing, mobile phones, and cut-price electrical goods including computers, Austin believes that the supermarkets’ diversification is set to continue.‘The UK retail food market is saturated, so their only real prospect of growth is either to enter foreign markets or diversify into new markets at home..’Tesco and J Sainsbury have done both. Having already bought foreign subsidiaries, both large supermarket chains have set up their own banks in order to offer customers financial services such as personal loans, mortgages and savings accounts.Together, the two new banks took over £2bn of customer deposits within the first year of trading. ‘They are winning business by using a lower cost base to offer their customers better interest rates on savings than traditional banks,’ says Austin.However, there are question marks over long-term profitability. The traditional providers say there is bound to come a point when the new banks will eventually want to widen margins and boost profits. ‘When they start to raise prices, they might create bad publicity, which could hurt their brand,’ says one observer. ‘How will a major supermarket react, for instance, when it is faced with having to repossess a regular shopper’s home?’Shoppers, however, do not share these fears. A recent survey of 1,000 people by brand consultants Cook & Pearson concludes that shoppers will continue to buy a wider range of goods and services from supermarkets. Many people said that they would be prepared to buy7 / 14a supermarket own-label car or even a house from a supermarket-branded estate agent. Interest was also shown in combining a food shopping trip with a visit to a supermarket dentist.Loyalty schemes are another incentive for customers. ‘Most supermarkets now offer bonus points with every purchase. These points add up to free air miles or cash discounts, so it really pays to stay loyal to the brand in all its diversified forms,’ says Austin.()6 Why are the large UK supermarket chains diversifying? _____________.A. Because the retail food market in the UK has been occupied by foreigncompanies.B. Because the retail food market in the UK is saturated.C. Because the retail food market in the UK is quite small.D. Because diversification into new markets can promote the growth of the retailfood market in the UK.()7 How are the supermarkets able to attract business in the banking sector?____________.A. Because they can offer more services.B. Because they can offer more varieties of commodities.C. Because they can offer better interest rates.D. Because they can offer free car parking for customers.()8 What are the risks involved with brandstretching?_________________.A. There may come a point when providers will want to raise prices.B. There may come a point when providers lose all their banking business.C. There may come a point when customers lose their confidence in the bankingsector.D. All the UK large supermarkets will have to close all their banking business. ()9 How do the large UK supermarket chains encourage brand loyalty? ___________.A. By offering free samples of commodities.B. By offering a wide range of goods and services.C. By offering convenient banking services.D. By offering loyalty schemes like bonus points.8 / 14()10 The headline “Banking on a brand” means ______________.A. selling a brandB. purchasing a brandC. relying on a brandD. stretching a brandIII.Business Translation: 20%(商务翻译,20分)Section ADirections: There are ten terms in this section.

This section totals 20 points, two points for each question.Passage OneThe impact of e-commerce is happening in phases. In its first phase (1994-1997), e-commerce was about presence: making sure that everybody had a web site, meeting the demand that every company, large or small, get out there and have at least something on the Internet. People weren't quite sure why they were doing it, but they knew that they had to have an online presence.The second phase (1997-2000) of e-commerce was about transactions buying and selling over digital media. The focus in this phase was on order flow and gross revenue. Some of that was the matching of buyers and sellers who never would have found each other in the past. Some of it was simply taking transactions that would have been done through paper purchase orders and saying that this business was done on the Internet, although the meaning of that change was quite insignificant. But in this phase, the announcements were all about order flow at any cost: why-sell-it-when-you-can-give-it-away business models. As a result, many of the first movers in this phase such as V alue America, are either gasping, have gasped their last breath, or are flailing about in a sea of red ink.Today, e-commerce is entering the third phase (2000-?), with a focus on how the Internet can impact profitability. And profitability is not about increasing gross revenues but rather increasing gross margins. We call this phase e-business, and it includes all the applications and processes enabling a company to service a business transaction. Thus, e-business is not just about e-commerce transactions or about buying and selling over the Web: it's the overall strategy of redefining old business models, with the aid of technology, to maximize customer value and profits. To paraphrase Business Week: “Forget B2B and B2C, E-business is about P2P-path to profitability."( ) 1.Between 1994 and 1997, companies built their web sites mainly because they .A. wanted to find more customersB. had no other things to doC. wanted to show their existence on InternetD. felt the Internet was quite interesting( ) 2.In the second phase of e-commerce, companies were satisfied that they . A.have built their own web sites on InternetB. have taken some transactions through InternetC. took transactions through paper purchase ordersD. take transactions through paper purchase orders( ) 3.What does “the first movers" (para. 2) most probably mean?A. The first motivations for the companies to take e-commerce.B. The earliest transformation of transactions from paper orders to e-commerce.C. The first companies that have failed in the field of e-commerce.D. The earliest companies that get involved in e-commerce.( ) 4.The earliest e-commerce began in the year of .A. 1994B. 1997C. 1999D. 2000( ) 5.What does the last sentence in the passage most probably mean?A. B2B and B2C are no longer suitable e-business models.B. The aim of taking e-business is to earn more profit.C. E-business is by no means a good way of getting profit.D. P2P is the most suitable e-business model.Passage TwoWalk into a street market anywhere from Manila to Manchester, and someone will be selling T-shirts branded with the distinctive CK logo of Calvin Klein, the New York fashion designer.If the price is very low, the T-shirts are probably fakes. Calvin Klein, like most other internationally-known fashion designers, has, for a long time, had problems with counterfeits selling poor quality merchandise bearing his brand name. Now he is doing something about it. “As the Calvin Klein brand has become well-known, we’ve seen a big increase in counterfeit activity,”says Gabriella Forte, chief executive of Calvin Klein, “the better-known the brand name, the more people want to rip it off.”In the past Calvin Klein took a relatively passive approach to the counterfeit problem. The company has now got tougher by establishing a network of employees and external specialists to uncover copyright abuse.The move began with a general change in corporate strategy whereby Calvin Klein has aggressively expanded its interests outside North America. Calvin Klein has been one of the leading fashion designers in the North America market since the mid-1970s. Now Calvin Klein isbuilding up its fashion business in other countries. It has increased its investment in advertising, and restructured its licensing arrangements by signing long-term deals with partners for entire regions such as Europe or Asia, rather than giving licensing rights to individual countries. But as sales and brand awareness have risen, Calvin Klein has become an increasingly popular target for Asian and European counterfeiters, alongside other luxury brands such as Gucci, Chanel and Ralph Lauren.The fake goods, mostly T-shirts, jeans and baseball caps, not only reduce the company’s own sales but damage its brand image by linking it to poor quality merchandise. “You’d be amazed at how many people pay $5 for a T-shirt without realizing it’s counterfeit,” said one executive. ( ) 6.Which of the following statements is the correct understanding of the word “logo”?A. a name, a term or a symbol which is used to differentiate a product fromcompetitors’ products.B. the ability of a brand to make money.C. the symbol of a company or other organization.D. agreements which allow a company to make and sell a registered brand locally. ( ) 7.According to the passage, why the problem of CK’S being counterfeiting is getting worse?A. The company changed its way of dealing with counterfeiters.B. The brand name has become well-known.C. The price of the fake goods is much lower than that of the original ones.D. The brand name is easy to remember.( ) 8.What was Calvin Klein’s attitude to counterfeiting at present?A. He adopts a constructive and active approach.B. He is pessimistic and discouraged.C. He thinks fighting back doesn’t pay.D. He asserts that the brand awareness has risen and counterfeiting will drop over time. ( ) 9.What has the company done to fight back counterfeiting?A. Establishing a network of employees to find out the counterfeiters.B. Inviting external specialists to uncover copyright abuse.C. Adopting a positive and more aggressive strategy.D. All of the above.( ) 10.How many fashion victims are mentioned in the passage?A. One, Gucci.B. Three, they are Gucci, Chanel and Ralph Lauren.C. One, Calvin Klein.D. Calvin Klein, Gucci, Channel and Ralph Lauren.III.Business Translation: 20%(商务翻译,20分)Section ADirections: There are ten terms in this section.
