国际经贸高级英语精读1--3课课文翻译

Starting as low-income economies in the 1960s, a few economies in East Asia managed,in a few decades, to bridge all or nearly all of the income gap that separated them from the high-income economies of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).Meanwhile many other developing economies stagnated .What made the difference?One way to grow is by developing hitherto unexploited land.Another is to accumulate physical capital:roads, factories, telephone networks.A third is to expand the labor force and increase its education and training.But Hong Kong (China) and Singapore had almost no land.They did invest heavily in physical capital and in educating their populations,but so did many other economies.During the 1960s through the 1980s the Soviet Union accumulated more capital as a share of its gross domestic product (GDP) than did Hong Kong (China), the Republic of Korea, Singapore, or Taiwan (China).And it increased the education of its population in no trivial measure. Yet the Soviets generated far smaller increases in living standards during that period than did these four East Asian economies.Perhaps the difference was that the East Asian economies did not build, work, and grow harder so much as they built, worked, and gr ew smarter.Could knowledge, then, have been behind East Asia’s surge ?If so, the implications are enormous,for that would mean that knowledge is the key to development—that knowledge is development.How important was knowledge for East Asia’s growt h spurt ?This turned out not to be an easy question to answer.The many varieties of knowledge combine with its limited marketability to present a formidable challenge to anyone seeking to evaluate the effect of knowledge on economic growth.How, after all, does one put a price tag on and add up the various types of knowledge?What common denominator lets us sum the knowledge that firms use in their production processes; the knowledge that policymaking institutions use to formulate, monitor, and evaluate policies; the knowledge that people use in their economic transactions and social interactions?What is the contribution of books and journals, of R&D spending, of the stock of information and communications equipment, of the learning and know-how of scientists, engineers, and students? Compound ing the difficulty is the fact that many types of knowledge are accumulated and exchanged almost exclusively within networks, traditional groups, and professional associations.That makes it virtually impossible to put a value on such knowledge.Reflecting these difficulties in quantify ing knowledge,efforts to evaluate the aggregate impact of knowledge on growth have often proceeded indirectly, by postulat ing that knowledge explains the part of growth that cannot be explained by the accumulation of tangible and identifiable factors, such as labor or capital.The growth not accounted for by these factors of production—the residual in the calculation—is attributed to growth in their productivity, that is, using the other factors smarter, through knowledge.This residual is sometimes called the Solow residual, after the economist Robert M. Solow,who spearheaded the approach in the 1950s,and what it purports to measure is conventionally called total factor productivity (TFP) growth.Some also call the Solow residual a measure of our ignorance ,because it represents what we cannot account for. Indeed, we must be careful not to attribute all of TFP growth to knowledge,or there may be other factors lurking in the Solow residual.Many other things do contribute to growth—institutions are an example—but are not reflected in the contributions of the more measurable factors.Their effect is (so far) inextricably woven into TFP growth.In early TFP analyses,physical capital was modeled as the only country-specific factor that could be accumulated to better people’s lives.Technical progress and other intangible factors were said to be universal, equally available to all people in all countries,and thus could not explain growth differencesbetween countries.Their contributions to growth were lumped with the TFP growth numbers.Although this assumption was convenient, it quickly became obvious that physical capital was not the only factor whose accumulation drove economic growth. A study that analyzed variations in growth rates across a large number of countries showed that the accumulation of physical capital explained less than 30 percent of those variations.The rest—70 percent or more—was attributed directly or indirectly to the intangible factors that make up TFP growth (Table 1.1).Later attempts introduced human capital to better explain the causes of economic growth.A higher level of education in the population means that more people can learn to use better technology. Education was surely a key ingredient in the success of four of the fastest-growing East Asian economies: Hong Kong (China), the Republic of Korea, Singapore, and Taiwan (China). Before their transformation from developing into industrializing economies, their school enrollment rates had been much higher than those of other developing countries (Table 1.2).They had also emphasized advanced scientific and technical studies—as measured by their higher ratios of students in technical fields than in even some industrial countries—thus enhancing their capacity to import sophisticated technologies.Moreover, the importance of education for economic growth had long been recognized and established empirically .One study had found that growth in years of schooling explained about 25 percent of the increase in GDP per capita in the United States between 1929 and 1982.Adding education reduced the part of growth that could not be explained,thus shrinking the haystack in which TFP growth (and knowledge) remained hidden.Some analysts even concluded, perhaps too quickly,that physical and human capital, properly accounted for, explained all or virtually all of the East Asian economies’ rapid growth,leaving knowledge as a separate factor out of the picture.One re ason these analysts came up with low values for TFP growth is that they incorporated improvements in labor and equipment into their measurement of factor accumulation.So even their evidence of low TFP growth in East Asia does not refute the importance of closing knowledge gaps.Indeed, it shows that the fast-growing East Asian economies had a successful strategy to close knowledge gaps:by investing in the knowledge embodi ed in physical capital, and by investing in people and institutions to enhance the capability to absorb and use knowledge.Looking beyond East Asia,other growth accounting studies have examined larger samples of countries.Even when human capital is accounted for,the unexplained part of growth remains high.One such study, of 98 countries with an unweighted average growth rate of output per worker of 2.24 percent,found that 34 percent (0.76 percentage point) of that growth came from physical capital accumulation,20 percent (0.45 percentage point) from human capital accumulation,and as much as 46 percent (just over 1 percentage point) from TFP growth.Even more remains to be explained in variations in growth rates across countries. The same study found the combined role of human and physical capital to be as low as 9 percent, leaving the TFP residual at a staggering 91 percent.To take another example:Korea and Ghana had similarly low incomes per capita in the 1950s,but by 1991 Korea’s income per capita was more than seven times Ghana’s.Much of that gap remains unexplained even when human capital is taken into account .All these results are subject to measurement problems.For example, the measured stock of human capital may overstate the actual quantity used in producing goods and services.High rates of school enrollment or attainment (years completed) may not translate into higher rates of economic growthif the quality of education is poor, or if educated people are not employed at their potential because of distortion s in the labor market.Moreover, it is now evident that education without openness to innovation and knowledge will notlead to economic development.The people of the former Soviet Union, like the people of the OECD countries and East Asia, were highly educated, with nearly 100 percent literacy .And for an educated population it is possible,through foreign direct investment and other means,to acquire and use information about the latest production and management innovations in other countries.But the Soviet Union placed severe restrictions on foreign investment, foreign collaboration, and innovation.Its work force did not adapt and change as new information became available elsewhere in the world, and consequently its economy suffered a decline.(excerpted from World Development Report 1998/1999)一些东亚国家在20世纪60年代还是低收入国家,但是在短短的几十年之间,他们成功地弥补了其与经济合作与发展组织(OECD)中高收入国家之间的差距;与此同时,也有许多发展中国家的经济停滞不前。

中国大学英语教学体制是中国考生阅读理解能力低的主要原因。
几乎所有到美国读书的中国学生会感觉到自己的阅读能力明显不足,因为在国外,通常学生每次课后作业需要阅读长达数十页到数百页的*,非常不适应,感到自己多年来在中国炼就的高超语法水平(如虚拟语气有多少种特例、很多八百年都用不上一次的词语搭配)却无用武之处。
据我多年应试与教学的体会,中国学生阅读最大的障碍在于对英语长句、复杂句的感觉和把握。
*读不懂,其实读不懂的还是难的句子,目前在研究生入学考试阅读部分中出现含有50~70个词汇长度的句子已属司空见惯,如果文中充满了主系和主谓宾单句的话,恐怕没有谁读不懂!对于大多数同学而言,个别单词不认识并不会造成语义理解的障碍,除非您的单词量实在是太小了,事实上很多同学阅读水平处在这样的一个阶段:很多单词是认识的,但句子长的,结构复杂了,句子语义理解起来就很慢、很吃力,或根本不理解,从而导致整个*理解的障碍。

高等教育自学考试是个人自学,社会助学和国家考试相结合的一种新的高等教育形式,是我国高等教育体系的一个组成部分。
实行高等教育自学考试制度,是落实宪法规定的“鼓励自学成材”的重要措施,是提高中华民族思想道德和科学文化素质的需要,也是造就和提拔人才的一种途径。
应考者通过规定的考试课程并经思想品德鉴定达到毕业要求的,可以获得毕业证书,国家承认学历并按照规定享有与普通高等学校毕业生同等的有关待遇。
从80年代初期开始,各省、自治区、直辖市先后成立了高等教育自学考试委员会,开展了高等教育自学考试工作,为国家培养造就了大批专门人才。
为科学、合理地制定高等教育自学考试标准,提高教育质量,全国高等教育自学考试指导委员会(以下简称全国考委)组织各方面专家对高等教育自学考试专业设置进行了调整,统一了专业设置标准,全国考委陆续制定了几十个专业考试计划。
再此基础上,各专业委员会按照专业考试计划的要求,从造就和选拔人才的需要出发,编写了相应专业的课程自学考试大纲,进一步规定了课程学习和考试的内容与范围,有利于社会助学,使自学要求明确,考试标准规范化、具体化。
黑龙江省考委根据国务院发布的《高等教育自学考试暂行条例》,参照教育部拟定的普通高等学校有关课程的教学大纲,结合自学考试的特点,组织制定了《高级英语精读(二)自学考试大纲》。
《高级英语精读(二)自学考试大纲》是该课程编写教材和自学辅导书的依据,也是个人自学,社会助学和国家考试(课程命题)的依据,希望各位应考者及授课教师应认真贯彻执行。
黑龙江大学应用外语学院二OO九年十月编写说明中国加入WTO 意味着中国将进一步与世界各国的政治、经济、文化各个方面的交流与合作力度的加大。
然而,中国经济的发展在许多领域里都面临着人才匮乏的局面,特别是能够适应国际竞争需要的国际管理人才,因此,培养并造就一批优秀的国际化人才,是我们在新一轮国际竞争中赢得主动的关键。
黑龙江大学应用外语学院正是根据人才市场的这一需求,凭借多年开办应用英语专业的经验以及雄厚的应用英语师资力量,特开办了旅游英语专业(独立本科段)。
一方面为国家解决国际性旅游行业人才缺乏尽一份微薄之力;另一方面,也为有志于在国际旅游市场方面有更深要求的人士,提供了一个深造的机会。
为此,我们经过课程的精心论证、挑选了有丰富教学和实践经验的教师,认真的选择了有针对性的教材来满足学员的要求。
根据《高级英语精读(二)》的课程要求,我们编写了本书的考试大纲。
本考试大纲依据高等自学考试旅游英语(独立本科段)专业的考试计划的要求编写而成,使学生在旅游英语的听,说,读,写等各方面都得到了贴近实际工作的训练,在学习规范的旅游用语的同时,也学到了专业的旅游方面的知识。
针对以上要求,本考试大纲进一步规定了课程学习和考试的内容与范围,有利于社会助学,使自学要求明确,考试标准规范化、具体化。
本考试大纲的目的在于使学生在学习的过程中,能够思路清晰、重点突出、一目了然。
知道哪些知识应该必须掌握;哪些知识应该理解;哪些知识应该作为一般性的了解;同时也有利于学习者学以致用,并能够帮助学员最大限度的发挥自己的潜能达到学习的目的,顺利的通过考试,用所学到的知识解决实际工作中的问题。
能够达到这样一个目的,是我们开办旅游英语专业(独立本科段)的办学目的,也是广大学员所衷心希望的。

5.自学方法根据本课程的目的要求,应考者在学习中应该着重掌握以下几个环节:(1)认真阅读教材。
阅读教材是基本的教学环节。
只有把教材仔细消化了,其他学习环节才能搞好。
如果不把教材真正弄懂弄通,就忙于阅读其他教学资料或做复习题,必然事倍功半。
阅读教材前,应先看自学大钢中的学习目的和要求及内容提要,理解每一章节的要点,然后系统地读书。
读书时,首先要掌握每一章的梗概,弄清每一章的重点内容;其次在全面理解每章内容的基础上,要把本章与以前各章内容联系起来加以思考。
(2)作好读书笔记。
写读书笔记是巩固所学知识的一个重要方法,这对于自学尤为重要。
阅读教材是理解课程内容的基础,但看了书并不一定就能弄懂弄通,更不一定就能学得扎实。
要切实掌握课程内容,必须将读书与思考结合起来,手脑并用,通过笔记用自己的英语表述出来,变成自己的东西。
