You could say there is no reason.It’s true that a special kind of paper is used to make dollar bills, and they are pretty, but that’s not what makes them valuable.The real reason money is valuable is that everyone believes it is.Ancient economies had no paper money or coins.Some used barter----trading one thing for another.Others used all kinds of objects as money.Any object would do, as long as there was not an unlimited amount of it.Animals or metals were popular, and so were manufactured products like jewelry or weapons.Wealth in ancient Greece was measured in tools or cattle.This kind of money had two purposes.First, it was useful in itself.Tools and cattle can be used for farming.And second, it was a way to symbolize and measure value.A house, for example, would be valued at a certain number of tools or cattle.This greatly simplified trade.Other societies used money that was totally symbolic.For instance, American Indians used wampum, which is made from seashells.And until recently on the pacific island of Yap, people use large stone discs as money.In most places these types of money died out because more practical forms of money were invented.People started using precious metals, such as gold and silver, that were easier to carry around than tools or stones.And in the eighteenth century, paper money was introduced.At first people were suspicious of new currency, but they came to accept it because the government or bank issuing it would exchange an equal amount of gold for the paper.A $ 10 bill really was worth $ 10 for gold.But now, people are used to the idea that the government doesn’t have to back its money with gold.Everyone believes that a $ 10 bill is worth $10 and that is good enough.But if, for some reason, people ever lost faith in paper money, ten dollars wouldn’t be worth the paper it’s printed on.Questions 31-35 are based on passage 1 31.According to the writer the real reason money is valuable is that everyone believes
.a.money is valuable
b.gold is valuable c.money is gold
32.The writer of this selection mentioned animals, metals and manufactured products like jewelry or weapons because
.they were valuable they were used as money in ancient times people liked them 33.Paper money was invented
.to take the place of other types of money to be replaced by other types of money in the nineteenth century 34.At first people did not have trust in paper money because
.it was not worth much
the paper was not of good quality it looked like an ordinary piece of paper 35.People came to accept paper money when
.the government began to issue it the bank began to issue it they could exchange it for the same amount of gold Passage 2 Many private institutions of higher education around the country are in danger.Not all will be saved, and perhaps not all deserve to be saved.There are low-quality schools just as there are low-quality businesses.We have no obligation to save them simply because they exist.But many thriving institutions that deserve to continue are threatened.They are doing a fine job educationally, but they are caught in a financial difficulty, with no way to reduce rising costs or increase revenues significantly.Raising tuition doesn’t bring in more revenue, for each time tuition goes up, the enrollment goes down, or the amount that must be given away in student aid goes up.Schools are bad businesses, whether public or private, not usually because of bad management but because of the nature of the enterprise.They lose money on every customer, and they can go bankrupt either from too few students or too many students.Even a very good college is a very bad business.It is such colleges, thriving but threatened, that I worry about.Low enrollment is not their chief problem.Even with full enrollments, they may go under.Efforts to save them, and preferably to keep them private, are a national necessity.There is no basis for arguing that private schools are bound to be better than public schools.There are abundant examples to the contrary.Anyone can name state universities and colleges that rank as the finest in the nation and the world.It is now inevitable that public institutions will be dominant, and therefore diversity is a national necessity.Diversity in the way we support schools tends to give us a healthy diversity in the forms of education.In an imperfect society such as ours, uniformity of education throughout the nation could be dangerous.In an imperfect society, diversity is a positive good.Eager supporters of public higher education know the importance of sustaining private higher education.Questions 36-40 are based on passage 2 36.In the passage, the author appeals to the public to support
.a.private higher education in general b.public higher education in general c.high-quality private universities and colleges 37.According to the passage, schools are bad businesses because of
.a.the nature of school b.poor teachers c.bad management 38.What does the phrase “go under”(Par.2, sentence 3)probably mean? a.have low tuition b.get into difficulties c.do a bad job educationally 39.Which of the following statements is TRUE? a.There are many cases to indicate that private schools are superior to public schools.b.The author thinks diversity of education is preferable to uniformity of education.c.Each time tuition is raised, the enrollment goes up.40.In the author’s opinion, the way that can save private schools lies in
.a.full enrollment b.raising tuition c.national support Passage 3 A higher reading rate, with no loss of comprehension, will help you in other subjects as well as in English, and the general principles apply to any language.Naturally, you will not read every book at the same speed.You would expect to read a newspaper, for example, much more rapidly than a physics or economics textbook—but you can raise your average reading speed over the whole range of materials you wish to cover so that the percentage gained will be the same whatever kind of reading you are concerned with.The reading passages which follow are all of an average level of difficulty for your stage of instruction.They are all about five hundred words long.They are about topics of general interest which do not require a great deal of specialized knowledge.Thus they fall between the kind of reading you might find in your textbooks and the much less demanding kind you will find in a newspaper or light novel.If you read this kind of English, with understanding at, say, four hundred words per minute, you might skim through a newspaper at perhaps 650—700, while with a difficult textbook you might drop to two hundred or two hundred and fifty.Perhaps you would like to know what reading speeds are common among native English-speaking university students and how those speeds can be improved.Tests in Minnesota, U.S.A., for example, have shown that students without special training can read English of average difficulty, for example, Tolstoy’s War and Peace in translation, at speeds of between 240 and 250 words per minute with about seventy percent comprehension.Students in Minnesota claim that after twelve half-hour lessons, the reading speed can be increased, with no loss of comprehension, to around five hundred words per minute.Questions 41-45 are based on passage 3 41.According to the passage, the purpose of effective reading with higher speed is most likely to help you a.only in your reading of a physics textbook.b.improve your understanding of an economics textbook.c.not only in your language study but also in other subjects.42.Which of the following does not describe the types of reading materials mentioned in the second paragraph ? a.Those beyond one’s reading comprehension.b.Those concerning with common knowledge.c.Those without the demand for specialized knowledge.43.The average untrained native speaker at the University of Minnesota reads at a.about three hundred words per minute.b.about two hundred and forty-five words per minute.c.about sixty words per minute.44.According to the passage, how fast can you expect to read after you have attended twelve half-hour lessons in the University of Minnesota? a.You can increase your reading speed by three times.b.No real increase in reading speed can be achieved.c.You can double your reading speed.45.Where do you think the passage is taken from? a.The introduction to a book on fast reading.b.A local newspaper for young people.c.A school newspaper run by students.Passage 4 Cultural Wars
Films made in th United Stated have continued to sweep the globe.According to the list of 1998’s most successful movies put together by Variety magazine, U.S.films took the top 39 places;Britain’s The Full Monty came in at number 40.As a consequence, British movie’s market share fell to 14 percent of the home market, while the respective figures for French filsm were 27 percent in France and 10 percent for German films in Germany.The European Union’s trade deficit with the United States in films and television is annually between $ 5 and $ 6 billion.Several of Hollywood’s most successful movies have drawn from international resources.There men and a Baby was a remake of French comedy.Total Recall was made partly by French money, was directed by a Dutch man and starred an Austrian.The English Patient was directed by a Briton, shot in Italy, and starred French and British talent.The quest for new ideas and fresh talent has lead studios to develop subsidiaries in Europe: SONY’s bridge in London, Miramax in Berlin, and Warner Brothers both in Berlin and Paris.Questions 46-50 are based on passage 4 46.American films have continued to
the world.a.influence
b.win
c.challenge 47.British films share the 14 percent in its
in 1998.a.home market
b.American market
c.European market 48.German films have a ten percent share in
.a.France
b.British
c.German 49.Three Men and a Baby was a remake of French comedy.A “remake” means
.a.a copy
b.a reprint
c.reproduction 50.The English Patient was directed by a Briton, shot in Italy, and starred French and British talent.A Briton means
.a.a British
b.an Italian
c.a German Part IV Translation(20 points)Translate the following passages into Chinese Passage 1
China’s membership in the World Trade Organization creates the potential for impressive gains in economic efficiency.Indeed the gains are likely to be greater than those predicted in most published quantitative estimates, since those studies do not capture fully the likely effect of more foreign competition on domestic firms.No doubt many jobs will be lost in a few sectors.But prospects for generating employment are bountiful as China benefits from the phase-out of arrangements restricting world trade in apparel, and as Taiwan, Mexico, the EU, and other markets phase out and eliminate the WTO-inconsistent trade barriers they have maintained against a broad array of Chinese goods.Passage 2 The major advertising media are newspaper, magazines, direct mail, outdoor advertising, television, and radio.Newspapers account for the greatest part of advertising expenditure, with television running a fairly close second.Magazine advertising is perhaps the most prestigious, and direct mail is certainly the most selective medium.Radio and magazine advertising can also be quite selective, and radio is relatively inexpensive.

1. What do you think globalization means? What global companies can you think of? What industries are they in? Do global companies do more harm than good? In my opinion,globalization means a company set up subsidaries in the other countries and make them into local companies.Also setting up new companies means the transferring of technology and capital.When offering to global companies ,we may easy to think of P&G,KFC,AIRBUS,NOKIA and so on.these companies are in different industries,some in instant food industries,some in heavy industries,some in aviation industries.It may different to say absolutely global companies do more harm or do more good.It obviously that global companies give us much cheaper ang higher quality products which make us enjoy a more comfortable life.Also global companies introduced more advanced technology and management skills.But on the other hand,with the strong competition,some national companies is eliminating and our national cuture is also dispearing with the step of globalization.2. Are you influenced by brands when you choose products or services?(Why or why not?)Would you consider buying a new brand of product newly introduced to the market?(Why or why not?)What do you think a company should do to create brand awareness for a new brand? I think whether I influenced by the brands depend on different kinds of things.When I choose something I use everyday such as shampoo,I will firstly take brands into consideration.Because I think shampoo is a kind of chemical product,some small companies may add put some unhealthy addition ,which may have a bad influence on my health.But when I choose cloths ,I think style and quality are important than brands.Generally I don’t want to have a try to a new brand of product,because I think it is not worthy for me to try a product with un certainty.But if there are some discount or free-trying,I’d like to have a try.For a company who want to create brand awareness,I have some suggestions.Firstly it’s necessary to make a product rocognisale.Secondly,the company should associate with specific quality with his brand.thirdly,forming a customer loyalty is impotant for a company.3. How often do you travel by air, rail, underground, road and sea? What do you enjoy about traveling? What don’t you enjoy? To be honest,t have never traveled by air and sea.when I go to school or go back home , I will travel by train.Almost I will traveled by
train four times a year.But when I go out for a short trip.I will travel by bus.when I travel to different place ,I am enjoying the scenes in differert place,I will be happy when I learn different culture from different cities.Also ,during the journey we can communicated with different people and gain some friends.But there are some unhappy things such as the crowed train,the traffic jam or some abusive person.We may lost our way to in strange cities.4. What’s important when choose household appliance? Brand name Technology
When I choose house hold appliance ,I will take several factors into consideration such as brand name ,price ,sevices,and technology and so on.firstly,I will select several famous brands for me to make choice.the reason why I choose famous brands because usually famous brands stands for good quality and better sevices.besidea that price worth for money is also important,with the same quality ,I will choose the product with a lower price.as we all known that household applicance is a kind of durable product.we’ll use it for a long time ,so the sevice is important too.good sevice is a guarantee for our products.last but not least, a product with advanced technology may means more time it can be used and much safer,more electricity-saving.5. Which of the following statements do you agree with? Why? People remember advertisements not products. Advertising raises prices. Advertising has a bad influence on children.I think people sometimes remember advertisements but not the product.usuarally if a advertisement is too attractive ,the people who watch it may pay more attention to the advertisement rather than the product.but usually,people will remember the product also because there is a high frequency of broadcasting advertisement.actually advertusing will arise the price of product,as we all know,advertising is very expensive,so the advertising increase the tolly cost of the product ,so the product will be sold at a higher price.but on the other hand ,advertising reduce the seeking cost of customers,customers can easily to fing out what they are want tobuy and avoid buying a wrong product,so it is difficult to say advertising raises prices absolutely.I think there may be bad influence on children,because some companies in order to promote their sales,they may add some unhealthy factors to advertisement to draw children’s attention.so this may had bad influence on children.6. What is dress code? How important is personal appearance at work? For example? Think about formal clothing, uniforms, men with earrings and tattoos, etc.Dress cold is how you dress in certain place.For example if you work in the police-office ,you need to wear uniform.But if you work is designing something you need to wear casually as you want.I think the personal appearance have great relation to the work.If you work as a accountant ,your personal appearance should be neat and tidy.We usually see some barber with earring in order to show that they are fashion.But if a policeman withearrings we may think that he shuoldn’t be a good policeman.It will be amussing that a barber dressed in a uniform.That may also have bad influence on their job.7. Is free trade always a good thing? Do you think it leads to the creation of jobs, or to unemployment? Should certain industries be protected? If so, which? As everything in the world have two sides,free trade is not the exception.On one hand free trade may make our product import more easily,meanwhile,the product from the other countries will import to our country more easily.if the product we produced have a competitive advantages ,free trade may leads to creation of jobs.But if we don’t have advantages ,our factories may go to bankrupt, and a lot of people will out of work.In my opinion some indutries
such as energy industries
and
military
industries should be protected.Because these industries is the economic lifeline of our country.In order to get a good economy order ,we should protect these industries.8. What is important when advertising a product? Target markets Choice of media To be a succeseful advertisement ,here are some important factors.The purpose of the advertaisement is promoting sales.To find the right target market is very important,only fing the potential customer can the advertisement be effective.choosing the right media is may help you convey the information of the product effectively to the potential customers.For example ,KFC also make advertisement on bus TV or bus stop.But some daylily-comsumption product may advertise on TV.Tirldly,the content of the advertisement is also important.Nowadays with thedevelopment of advertisement,there are so many different advertisement on TV or some other media,the attractive content is a guanrantee for draw enough attention from the custums.The factors mentioned above are both important for a
good advertisement.9. A colleague in a company which tests medical equipment has been making bad mistakes recently at work.This is because she has a serious illness.You are her friend and the only person at work who knows this.She has asked you to keep it a secret.What should you do? Before i make decision,I should get some information about the miatake and the bad influence of this mistake.If the mistake have a serious influence on my colleague’s work.I will have a talk with my friend and tell her or him that the lose.I will advise him or her to tell the leader the truth,and I will help him to explain the situation.but if he insist that he would not tell the truth I will not keep the secret.I will make a explaination to my company in order to help the company to make a right decision.Though I don’t keep the secret and maybe my friend will be angury with me ,I still i do the what i should do.10. What is your opinion of the following strange inventions: The self-extinguishing cigarette has a container of water buried near the filter tip. A collapsible coffin which can be carried on the bus.The self-extinguishing cigarette is a very interesting invention.I think this invention may help those people who have always forget to extinguish the cigarrete extinguish the cigarette.Maybe this invention will reduce the chance of fire.But I think this kind of cigarrete may cost too much to make and use.With this reason I think this kind of
cigarrette
may not sell very well.A collapsible coffin is easy to carry.But I think if we use this kind of coffin for my dead relations ,the passengers on the bus may feel very uncomfortale.meanwhile I think this kind of coffin also show unrespect to my relations.SO i think I would not like to use it at all.11. What are the methods of communication to staff in most companies? Is it important to let your manager know your ideas about work?(Why?)Do you think people can be trained to communicate more efficiently?(How?)In companies ,people often use telephone ,MSN and e-mails to communicate about work.People also use telephone to communiate how to do the work.They use e-mails
to repot to leader
what work they have finished.It is important to let my manager know your ideas about work.Because through communicate the work ideas ,my manager will get further understangding with me ,which may give me a hand on my work.I think people can be trained to communicate more efficiently.For example they use the same format to send and reback e-mails.If there is a meeting people should give suggesttion in turn and should not interrupt other ‘s talking.12. Do you think cultures are becoming more alike? Is this a good or bad thing? For example, think about : a.improved communications;b.global business;c.cheap foreign travel;d.trading groups(EU, ASEAN, etc.)In my opinion , cultures are becoming more alike nowadays.With the development of technology and information, Cultural Exchange is become more common these days.With the cutrual exchange , some cutures has absorbed some of the advantages of other cultures.I think Cultural assimilation is a trend of the development of cutures.I think that cultural assimilation is a good thing.Because it is adapted to the needs of the community.Under the similar background of cultures, communication will become more easy, which is the driving force for social progress.global business also will develop very quickly.13. Discuss these statements.Do you agree with them? Give your reasons.1.‘Small is beautiful’ is a better strategy in business than ‘big is best’
2.Big companies should aim to gain market share rather than make profits.3.Companies should focus on what they do best rather than diversify.I think it is difficult to say absolutely small or big is good in business.In my opinion , The size of the company must adapt to the development of itsself.I agree with the idea that Big companies should aim to gain market share rather than make profits.Large companies have a strong production capacity.Only more market share can match to the production capacity.also large companies have Economies of scale,so big companies have a lower cost of product.I agree that Companies should focus on what they do best rather than diversify.F ocusing on what they do best will help the company get the competitive advantages such as Adequate funding and advanced technology.4.14. What makes a great leader? Make a list of characteristics.Are there differences between men and women as leaders? Are people who were leaders at school more likely to be leaders later in life? I think a good leader should be open and decisinve and Charismatic.An open leader could communicate with people at all levels in order to get
enough information to make deisions.also it is very important for a leader with the ability of selecting information,so decisive is also important.I think actually there not much big differences between men and women as leaders.Because we know that good leaders also have some characteristics in common.There maybe some slingtly difference between men and women as leaders such as the manners they use when do the work.I think people who were leaders at school more likely to be leaders later in life.Because we know that leaders at school may get some ability to be a leader ,which nay help them to become a good leader in the future.15. What’s important when evaluating the success of teamwork? Mutual trust
In my opinion , Mutual trust Full cooperation and adquate communiation are
important when evaluating the success of teamwork.Firstly Mutual trust is the basement of the team.With Mutual trust Members may focus on their own work Efficiently.secondly ,cooperation is crucial to a team ‘s success.With th e help of each other ‘s the work will be more easy to do.And there will be many different ideas among different member,which may help the leader to board his horizion.thidly adquate communicate will help menber know each other very well.with the adquate communicate with each other ,something difficult will be more easy to solute.

(一)试卷答案
一 选择
1-5 CCBBA 6-10 AACAA 11-15 BBADA 16-20 BCBAB 21-24 ABBC 二 多选 ABCDE 2 ADE 3 ABCDE 4 ABCDE 5 ABDE 三 名称解释
多式联运单据:是指证明多式联运合同以及证明多式联运经营人接管货物并负责按合同条款交付货物的单据,它由多式联运经营人签发,这种单据应依发货人的选择,或为可转让的单据,或为不可转让的单据。不可抗力:是指买卖合同签订后,不是由于合同当事人的过失或疏忽,而是由于发生了合同当事人无法预见、无法预防、无法避免和无法控制的事件,以致不能履行或不能如期履行合同,发生意外事故的一方可以免除履行合同的责任或推迟履行合同。
押汇:又称买单结汇,即指议付行在审单无误情况下,按信用证条款贴现受益人的汇票或者以一定的折扣买入信用证下的货运单据,从票面金额中扣除从议付日到估计收到票款之日的利息,将余款按议付日外汇牌价折成人民币,拨给出口企业。4投标:是指投标人应招标人的邀请,按照招标的要求与条件,在规定的时间内向招标人递价,争取中标的行为。
四 简答题(1)考虑运输条件(2)考虑货源情况(3)考虑运费因素(4)考虑运输途中的风险(5)考虑办理进出口货物结关手续的难易。2(1)商品的质量和档次;(2)运输距离;(3)交货地点和交货条件;(4)季节性需要的变化;(5)成交数量;(6)支付条件和汇率变动的风险;(7)国际市场的价格的走势;(8)其他
3(1)开立信用证;(2)派船接运货物;(3)投保货运险;(4)审单和付汇;(5)报关、纳税;(6)验收和拨交货物。
五 计算题 实际回潮率=(1-0.9)/0.9=11.1% 公量=商品净重×[(1+公定回潮率)/(1+实际回潮率)] =60×(1+14%)/(1+11.1%)=61.57 公吨
按题意可知P0=350 万,A=20%,B=60%,C=20%,M=120,M0=100,W=115,W0=100(2分)则最终价格 P=P0(A+BM/M0+CW/W0)(2 分)=350(20%+60%×120/100+20%×115/100)=350(0.2+0.72+0.23)=402.5 万美元
六 案例分析题 这不构成违约,银行能议付。由于分批装运是指一笔成交的货物分若干批次装运。但一笔成交的货物,在不同时间和地点分别装在同一航次、同一条船上,即使分别签发了若干不同内容的提单,也不能按分批装运论处,因为该笔成交的货物是同时到达目的地的。因而,我方企业的做法符合合同的规定,不属于分批装运,同时,银行也不能拒绝议付。A 公司的做法合理,双方不存在合同关系。(3 分)根据《联合国国际货物销售合同公约》的规定,对发盘进行实质性变更的答复为还盘;(3 分)B 商的答复改变了发盘的交货时间,不是接受,是还盘,因此合同不成立。(2 分)A 拒绝交货,并退回信用证的做法无可指责。

I think whether I influenced by the brands depend on different kinds of things.When I choose something I use everyday such as shampoo,I will firstly take brands into consideration.Because I think shampoo is a kind of chemical product,some small companies may put some unhealthy addition ,which may have a bad influence on my health.But when I choose cloths ,I think style and quality are important than brands.Generally I don’t want to have a try to a new brand of product,because I think it is not worthy for me to try a product with uncertainty.But if there are some discount or free-trying,I’d like to have a try.For a company which wants to create brand awareness,I have some suggestions.Firstly it’s necessary to make a product recognise.Secondly,the company should associate with specific quality with his brand.Thirdly,forming a customer loyalty is important for a company.3. What is important when arranging a business trip abroad? Type of transport Accommodation Contact person
I think when arranging a business trip abroad there are three things to consider.First, you must choose the type of transport.As overseas travels involve long distances, the plane is the best choice for reaching your destination rapidly.Secondly, you should also consider what accommodation best suits your purposes.Choosing a hotel with all modern conveniences and communication facilities will help you accomplish your tasks much better.Lastly, you should have a contact person who has important local connections and up-to-date local business information.4. Do you think that the advertising practices described below are acceptable? Why? Using children in advertisements Using film stars in advertisements Promoting alcohol on TV Comparing your products to your competitors’ products 孩子:When the children's minds are not fully mature, parents are keen to cultivate children's talent ,practicing courage to help them grow better.But sometimes the situation is that kids do not necessarily very keen on this, some children may not have extraordinary talent.And also in the growth process, the psychological gap can not be avoided.名人:弊端Celebrity endorsement ads make compelling product.Celebrity endorsement advertising can deepen people's perception of the brand.Increase sales by star.好处:Star negative information affects the consumers for the product choice;celebrity endorsements make false advertising for fame and wealth;Celebrity endorsements misled consumers, make consumers los when choosing goods.电视宣传酒精:On behalf of the Chinese splendid culture.Chinese wine has a long history of wine as a special drink which witnessed the rise and fall of a dynasty.Moderate amounts of wine is beneficial to the health of the body, but drinking too much can lead to serious consequences, such as drunk driving.产品比较:Product comparison can highlight the advantages of its own products, but may be caused in the process of comparing the generation of infringement.5. Which of the following statements do you agree with? Why? People remember advertisements not products. Advertising raises prices. Advertising has a bad influence on children.I think people sometimes remember advertisements but not the product usually if a advertisement is too attractive ,The people who think it may pay more attention to the advertisement rather than the product.But usually,people will also remember the product because there is a high frequency of broadcasting advertisement.Actually advertising will arise the price of product.As we all know,advertising is very expensive,so the advertising increases the cost of the product ,and the product will be sold at a higher price.But on the other hand ,advertising reduces the seeking cost of customers.Customers can easily figure out what they are want to buy and avoid buying a wrong product,so it is difficult to say advertising raises prices absolutely.I think there may be bad influence on children,because some companies in order to promote their sales,they may add some unhealthy factors to advertisement drawing children’s attention.So this may had bad influence on children.6. What is dress code? How important is personal appearance at work? For example? Think about formal clothing, uniforms, men with earrings and tattoos, etc.Dress cold is how you dress in certain place.For example if you work in the police office ,you need to wear uniform.But if you work is designing something you need to wear casually as you want.I think the personal appearance have great relation to the work.If you work as a accountant ,your personal appearance should be neat and tidy.We usually see some barber with earring in order to show that they are fashion.But if a policeman with earrings we may think that he shouldn’t be a good policeman.It will be amusing that a barber dressed in a uniform.That may also have bad influence on their job.7. Is free trade always a good thing? Do you think it leads to the creation of jobs, or to unemployment? Should certain industries be protected? If so, which? As everything in the world have two sides,free trade is not the exception.On one hand free trade may makes our product import more easily,meanwhile,the product from the other countries will import to our country more easily.If the product we produced have a competitive advantages ,free trade may leads to creation of jobs.But if we don’t have advantages ,our factories may go to bankrupt, and a lot of people will out of work.In my opinion some industries such as energy industries and military industries should be protected.Because these industries is the economic lifeline of our country.In order to get a good economy order ,we should protect these industries.8. What are most people’s main personal assets? How can a sole trader get the capital to set up a business? If a private limited company goes bankrupt, do the shareholders lose their personal assets? Why? In our country,personal assets be got through the property of labor or other lawful means.Including: citizens' legal income, savings, articles for daily use, cultural relics, books and materials, trees, animals, and the law allows citizens all production data and other lawful property.Enterprise's capital source can be divided into(raise)and(investment), the two aspects of such as mortgage or a bank loan.If a private limited company goes bankrupt,shareholders shall be jointly and severally liable.when the company’s asset can’t be insolvent, it would use personal assets to repay.9. You have a shortlist of people for the post of Sales Manager.One of the female candidates is clearly the best qualified person for the job.However, you know that some of your best customers would prefer a man.If you appoint a woman you will probably lose some sales.What should you do? From the aspects of gender, if discrimination problems, everyone can see the ancient hua mulan, modern sog qing ling, Madame Curie.These great women have made outstanding contributions.We choose the female candidate for the reasons: first, her performance is obvious to all, secondly, she is warm, approachable to people and reward is clear.These qualities are the sales manager should have.If you insist on selecting male candidates, we can let them to make decisions for fair competition 10. What is your opinion of the following strange inventions: The petless leash can mew or bard—depending on whether you want a non-existent cat or dog. Ice cubes that crackle louder according to the strength of your drink have been developed in Japan.The petless leash can mew or bard which satisfies the people who are allergic to cats and dogs.It is very creative.Because people who are allergic love pets, so it can meet their desire.For not allergic people,they can try the invention, but if you want really get the pleasure of pets,you must raise a real animal.The greater the solubility of alcohol, the louder ice cubes crackle.This invention is very interesting.First, in case I don't know the solubility of alcohol, we can understand the alcohol concentration by ice collisions.So when the alcohol concentration is too large, the clash of ice would warn drinkers in the certain degree.Second because of curious psychology, people will go to try this invention,which will bring economic benefits for the hotel.11.

what work they have finished.It is important to let my manager know your ideas about work.Because through communicating the work ideas ,my manager will get further understanding with me ,which may gives me a hand on my work.I think people can be trained to communicate more efficiently.For example they use the same format to send and reback e-mails.If there is a meeting people should give suggestions in turn and should not interrupt other ‘s talking.12. Discuss this list of unethical activities.Talk about your opinion for three of them: 1)avoiding paying tax;2)Claiming extra expenses;3)Using work facilities for private purposes;4)Accepting praise for someone else’s ideas or work;5)Selling a defective product avoiding paying tax: Tax evasion is immoral behavior.National income tax is from people and use for people.First to pay taxes is the duty of every citizen, second citizens use the resources in this country, we must pay a fee.For example: everyone holiday travel by trains, planes, and highway Bridges and other infrastructure construction.These are the state pays, individuals would not have finished.Claiming extra expenses: Every year the central government give the local government or department a proper grant, and the report is based on the lower the amount of funding.Some departments require far over budget allocations.Most of this money was squandered.These bad phenomenon bring huge economic burden for national finance
Using work facilities for private purposes: The use of public facilities for private purposes is immoral.Country spends money every year for the maintenance of public facilities.All of these are for the convenience of every citizen.If Using work facilities for private purposes is not only the misappropriation of state property also brings great harm to the society.For example: some police drives the car to do business.If there are emergency it will bring serious consequences.Accepting praise for someone else’s ideas or work: Accepting praise for someone else’s ideas or work is immoral.Life is fair, How much will be how much you pay for.To put other people's ideas or achievements are your own is honesty.At the same time.It will also affect the social fair, cause the bad atmosphere in society.Selling a defective product: Selling a defective product is immoral.It is in violation of the principle of honest.First, the customer use the money to buy the value of the goods.This is a fair deal.Then selling defective product to the customer has brought great potential safety hazard, and it harms the public safety.Seriously, it will violate the law.13. How important is each of the following for showing a person’s status in an organisation? A reserved parking space;an office with a window;a uniform;a personal business card;your own office;a company car;your name on your door.I think as a group of senior management personnel is a representative of the enterprise's strength,.So the company provides executives with car and reserves parking space.Executive office must be handsome, must have a title on the door of the office's name and the daylighting of the office is better in order to have a open vision.In addition ,executive business card must delicate features of the enterprise.As to the uniform, it just differs from other employees, but must highlight the identity of senior positions.14.
