1.The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts.Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation.In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator's role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash.In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator's position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderst anding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator.Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding.(1) What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment?A、The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation.B、The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication.C、The man who is wealthy and impersonal.D、The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.(2) According to the passage, international business negotiation involves.A、short-term goalsB、long-term benefitsC、information and cashD、persuasion and compromise(3) In the foreign negotiators’eyes their American counterparts are.A、impersonal suppliers of information and cashB、skillful in negotiationC、good at establishing relationship between negotiatorsD、indirect and impatient(4) Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A、Foreign negotiators are willing to invest time in relationship between negotiators.B、American negotiator's directness and impatience cause cross-cultural misunderstanding.C、Americans has played a more effective role in international business negotiations.D、Foreign negotiators think that American can afford to pay the price without bargaining(5) What is the topic of this passage?A、The differences between American negotiators and foreign negotiatorsB、Negotiation skillsC、International business and cross-cultural communicationD、Cross-cultural understanding

(31)______, not all foreign traders speak English. (32)______, English is the second language in many countries, (33)______ is helping to lessen the language barrier. (34)______, an increasing number of Americans are learning a second language.  Each nation has (35)______ peculiar social customs and business practices, which often serve as a hindrance to international trade. The Latin American Siesta—the long lunch hour (36)______ makes the workday longer—is not common (37)______ other ethnic groups. Many foreigners working in Latin American countries find this custom difficult to observe. For some, driving a car (38)______ the left hand side of the road is confusing. Removing your shoes to enter a residence or religious building is (39)______ unique custom. Strange and exotic foods sometimes create a diet problem for the new comer abroad. On the other hand, the American practice of one-stop shopping in shopping centers is becoming common practice in many foreign countries.

    正确答案: 31. and
    逗号之前指出很少有美国人能流利地说一种以上的语言,而空缺后则提到不是所有的外商都说英语。这两部分都是在陈述语言作为国际商务障碍之一的表现,属于并列关系,因此填并列连词and。
    32. However
    前文讲述语言在国际商务交流中带来的不利因素,而紧接着又指出英语是许多国家的第二语言,两部分之间为转折关系,又因该空后又逗号隔开,因此填入转折副词however。
    33. which
    该句主要成分是“英语是许多国家的第二语言”,因此逗号之后是非限定性定语从句修饰前面所指代的内容,因此应用which引导。
    34. Also
    上句指出由于英语是很多国家的第二语言,因此语言障碍的问题得到缓解。该句指出“越来越多的美国人在学习第二门语言”,与前文是递进的关系,因此填Also。
    35. its
    该句主谓宾齐全,需填入一个词来修饰宾语,因此应该填its,指代主语nation,表明“每个国家都有自己独特的社会风俗和商业惯例”。
    36. that
    破折号之间的内容是对主语Latin American Siesta的解释说明,可知the long lunch hour之后的内容为一个定语从句,因此可由that引导。
    37. to
    be common to为惯用搭配,意为“是…所共有/共用”,文中指“Latin American Siesta不是其他民族所共有的”。siesta(气候炎热国家的)午睡,午休。因此应填入to。
    38. on
    该处考查介词和名词搭配。side经常与介词on连用,on the left hand side意为“在左手边”,文中指“沿着左手边开车”,因此要用介词on。
    39. another
    上文提到在拉美国家,许多外国人感到遵守当地习俗很困难,并且给出了沿着左手边开车的例子。该句描述了走进一所住宅或宗教场所时要脱鞋的习俗,可知本句是在列举另一个独特风俗,答案为another。
    40. when
    该处描述又一个习俗,即和政府打交道要被收“entry fee”,因此应用when引导一个条件状语从句。

    听力原文: The Chinese currency is the Renminbi. China has maintained a unified managed floating exchange rate since January 1994. The exchange rate of the Renminbi is determined by the inter-bank foreign exchange market. The People' s Bank of China announces a reference rate for the Renminbi against the US dollar, the Hong Kong dollar, and the Japanese yen based on the weighted average price of foreign exchange transactions during the previous day's trading. Daily movement of the exchange rate of the Renminbi against the US dollar in inter-bank foreign exchange market is limited to 0.3% on either side of the reference rate as announced by the PBC. The buying and selling rates of the Renminbi against the Hong Kong dollar and the Japanese yen may not deviate more than 1% on either side of the reference rate. In the case of other currencies, the deviation may not exceed 0.5% on either side of their respective rates.

    Because of the devaluation of US dollar, American visitors shorten their trip to Europe.

    B

    Europe does not forecast the huge drop of American visitors.

    C

    Not only Paris but the whole Europe witnesses the reduction of American tourists.

    D

    The value of US dollar has become historical low.


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    推理判断题。文章第五段第一句意思是近来由于美元与欧元兑换率达到历史新低,因此不但到巴黎的美国游客减少了,甚至整个欧洲的美国客人数量都减少了,所以C正确。由文章前四段可以得出,美国人应付美元下跌不是缩短在欧洲旅游的时间,而是降低旅游期间的开销,所以A不正确。第五段提到:Paris has weathered a decline in tourism before,B选项错误。文章中提到虽然美元与欧元的兑换率达到历史最低点,但是美元的价值是否是最低还要参照欧元价值是否有变化而定,所以D“美元达到历史新低”不准确。正确答案为C。

    正确答案: B
