Ⅰ. Reading Comprehension

Part One : Directions: Choose the correct answers according to the information given from the passeges. Read the passages through carefully before making your choices. Please mark the corresponding leter for each item on Answer Sheet.

Passage One: Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.

The popularity in North America is Iceberg Water, a leading brand of bottled water, which is harvested from icebergs off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.

Arthur Wiesenberger, who carries the title Water Master, is one of the few water critics in North America.As a boy,he spent time in the larger cities of Italy,France and Switzerland, where bottled water is consumed daily.Even then,he kept a water journal,writing down the brands he liked best.“My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water,”he says.But is plain tap water a11 that bad? Not at a11.In fact, New York’s municipal water for more than 100 years was recently considered among the best in the world in terms of both taste and purity.Similarly,a magazine in England found that tap water tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water.

Nevertheless,soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle-ground for market share.As diners thirst for leading brands, soft-drink companies and restaurants salivate(垂涎)over the profits.A restaurant’s typical mark-up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it's often 300 to 500 percent.

As a result some restaurants are selling bottled water.According to an article in The Wall Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottles on the table for a visual sell,listing brands on the menu without prices,and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners if they want it

Regardless of how it's sold,the popularity of bottled water bring us better health and purity. 注意:此部分试题请在答题卡上作答。

Passage Two Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.

Is there enough oil beneath the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (保护区) (ANWR) to help secure America’s energy future ? President Bush certainly th inks so. He has argued that drilling ANWR’s oil would help ease California’s electricity crisis and provide the country’s energy independence. But no one knows for sure how much crude oil lies buried beneath the frozen earth with the last government survey, conducted in 1998, projecting output anywhere from 3 billion to 16 billion barrels.

The oil industry goes with the high end of the range---16 billion barrels, which could equal as much as 10% of U.S. consumption for as long as six years. By pumping more than 1 million barrels a day from the reserve for the next two three decades, lobbyists claim, the nation could cut back on imports equivalent to all shipments to the U.S. from Saudi Arabia. Sounds good. An oil boom would also mean a multibillion-dollar windfall(意外之财)in tax revenues, royalties(开采权使用费)and leasing fees for Alaska and the Federal Government. Best of all, advocates of drilling say, damage to the environment would be insignificant . ―We’ve never had a document case of oil rig chasing deer out onto the pack ice.‖ says Alaska State Representative Scott Ogan .

Not so fast, say environmentalists. Sticking to the low end of government estimates---3 billion barrels, environmentalists says there may be no more than 3.2 billion barrels of economically recoverable oil in the coastal plain of ANWR, a drop in the bucket that would do virtually nothing to ease America’s energy problems. And consumers would wait up to a decade to gain any benefits, because drilling could begin only after much bargaining over leases, environmental permits and regulatory review. As for ANWR’s impact on the California power crisis, environmentalists point out that oil is responsible for only 1% of the Golden State’s electricity output –and just 3% of the nation’s.

6. What does President Bush think of drilling oil in ANWR?

A) It w ill exhaust the nation’s oil reserves.

B) It will help secure the future of ANWR.

C) It will help reduce the nation’s oil imports

D) It will increase America’s energy consumption

7. We learn from the second paragraph that the American oil industry _______

A) believes that drilling for oil in ANWR will produce high output

B) tends to exaggerate America’s reliance on foreign oil

C) shows little interest in tapping oil in ANWR

D) expects to stop oil imports from Saudi Arabia

8. Environmentalists argue that _________

A) it can cause serious damage to the environment

B) it can do little to solve U.S. energy problems

C) it will drain the oil reserves in the Alaskan region

D) it will not have much commercial value

9. What do the environmentalists mean by saying ―Not so fast‖ (Line 1, Para .3)?

A) Oil exploitation takes a short time C) Don’t be too optimistic

B) The oil drilling should not be delayed D) Don’t e xpect lot of benefits.

10. It can be learned from the passage that oil exploitation beneath A NWR’s frozen earth ______.

A) remains an unsettled problem C) involves a lot of technological problems

B) is expected to get under way soon D) will enable the U.S. to be oil independent

Passports

If you’ve ever traveled outside the United States,one of the most important tasks you had to complete before your trip was applying for a passport.A copy of your original birth certificate may suffice for short trips to Mexico or the Caribbean,say on a cruise (乘船游览).But,generally speaking,want to see the world,you have to have a passport—the only universally accepted form of identification.

What Exactly Is a Passport and How Long Has It Been Around?

Passports have been around in some form for hundreds of years.Governments learned long ago that an official document or certification—one that identified a traveler as a citizen or national with a right to protection while abroad and a right to return to the country of his citizenship – is a necessity.Passports,letters of transit and similar documents were used for centuries to allow individuals to travel safely in foreign lands,but the adoption of the passport by all nations is a development of the 19th and,20th centuries.According to State Department historians,except for brief periods-during wartime,passports were not generally required for travel abroad and few obstacles were presented by foreign states' passport requirements until after1914.An executive order made on Dec.15,1915,required every person entering or leaving the United States to have a valid passport.

In the United States,passports are issued upon application to U.S.citizens by the State Department and its 13 passport agencies in major cities,by the clerks of federal and certain state courts,certain designated (指定的)post offices and by U.S.consular authorities abroad.The passport is required for both departure from and re-entry to the United States.It is valid for 10years for adults and five years for people under 18.A U.S.passport cannot simply be renewed but must be completely replaced when it expires.

Applying for a Passport

You can find passport applications at any regional passport agency or at designated post offices or clerk of court offices.Today,you can even download and print your own passport

applications.However,you still have to go in person to apply for your first passport.You should apply for your passport several months in advance of your planned departure,making sure you fill in the dates of your upcoming trip in the appropriate place on the application.If you'll need visas from foreign embassies,allow more time.

As a rule,it takes about 25 business days to process your passport application and get the document sent to you.Something to think about:Lines are longest at passport agencies from January to July,resulting in longer waiting times for applicants.You might want to avoid the crowds by applying through a nearby clerk of court or post office that accepts passport applications.

The passport agency processes expedited (加快)passports within three working days from receipt of the application.If you choose not to pay for overnight mail,you should receive your passport in 7—10 business days.You can also expedite passport renewal2 and you can do it by mail.

Does Everybody Have to Apply in Person?

The State Department’s Passport Agency says you must apply in person for a U.S.passport if you meet any of the following descriptions:

You are 13 or older and are applying for a U.S.passport for the first time.

Your previous passport was lost or stolen.

Your previous passport has expired and was issued more than 12 years ago.

You are applying for a passport for a child under age 12.

Applying in Person

Applying for a passport is not really difficult—it just requires following very specific rules.Follow these steps and you’ll have all your bases covered:

1.Complete application Form DSP.11一but Do NOT sign the form until you are instructed to do so by the passport agent.

2.Present proof of U.S.citizenship:

Previous U.S.passport

Certified birth certificate issued by the city,county or state.

Consular report of birth abroad

Naturalization certificate

Certificate of citizenship

One more thing:Even though your Social Security card is not required by the passport application,it does ask for your Social Security number.

What Happens to My Passport Application After I Submit It?

If you apply at a passport acceptance facility,like the post office,the same day that you apply,your application will be sent:to Passport Services for processing,and you will receive your passport by first class mail within six weeks.If you apply at a passport agency,you will receive your passport within five weeks by first class mail.Your passport will be sent to the mailing address you provided on your application.

How Much Will My Passport Cost?

When you consider its importance and how long it lasts,a passport:is a pretty good deal.For routine services,passports for adults 1 6 and older cost$60.Those age 15 and younger pay a total of $40.

If you were born outside the United States and your citizenship has not yet been determined

or if the passport agent considers your case ―complex,‖ getting a passport will cost more.As we discussed earlier,expediting an application will also cost more.

Can I Have My Old Passport Back?

Yes! Most people view their passports as important memorabilia and are eager to get them back.That’s why your previous passport,marked ―canceled,‖ will be returned to you with your new one.

Lost or Stolen Passport

Losing your passport --especially if you’re in a foreign country --can be scary.It’s the most important item you carry with you,so:it’s best to keep it someplace secure.Another safety measure you can take is to make two photocopies of the photo ID page of your passport.Leave one at home with family or friends and keep the other in a different place from your passport,perhaps buried in the bottom of checked luggage.This could make all the difference in getting you on your flight home in the event that your passport is lost or stolen.It also makes getting it replaced much easier.

You’ll want to report the loss of your passport as ―soon as possible.You can actually report a lost or stolen passport at the same time you apply for the new one.At that time.you will submit,a DSP-64,―Statement Regarding Lost or Stolen Passport‖ form.You’ll also need to fill out a Form DSP.11 passport application and submit it in person along with appropriate documentation and fees,to your nearest passport acceptance facility.

1.A passport is the only universally accepted form of identification around the world.

2.In the United Sates,the passport is valid for 10 years for people under 18.

3.If you are over 13 and are applying for a U.S.passport for the first time,you have to apply in person.

4.It is very difficult to apply for a passport as it requires many specific rules.

5.For routine services,passports for adults 16 and older cost more than those age 15 and younger.

6.In fact,you cannot report a lost passport and apply for a new one at the same time.

7.This passage mainly deals with the history of passports.

8.According to ___ an executive order _____made on Dec.15,1915,every person entering or leaving the United States is required to have a valid passport.

商务英语阅读试题Part 3

Part III Reading comprehension Passage 1 Richard Brasher, commercial director of Tesco?s non-food operations, is in the frame for the top job at Boots, where chief executive Steve Russell is to step down. Brasher is understood to be on a shortlist that includes Stuart Rose, the former boss of retailing group Arcadia, the Terry Duddy, chief executive of catalogue retailer Argos. Brasher is viewed as a high-flier within Tesco and is highly rated by the group?s chief executive, Terry Leahy. Boots has been looking for a chief executive and a new chairman since the middle of December, when its current chairman, John McGrath, admitted that the group had not acted fast enough to address strategic issues that were facing it. McGrath is due to step down at the end of his contract in the summer, after overseeing the search for a new chief executive. Boots has been trying to find a way to distinguish itself and its products from the increasing range carried by supermarkets. Last week Sainsbury, the food retailer, said it would be extending its own health and beauty offering after it axed a joint venture trial with Boots. Sainsbury and Boots have been working together since 2001, but Sainsbury now wants to roll out its own programme in about 50 stores. Under the original trial, Boots supplied the products, including exclusive lines, to a specific area within Sainsbury stores at nine out-of-town supermarkets. Although both sides agreed initial targets had been met, they could not agree terms to take the scheme forward. Observers suggested that the two had disagreed over sharing revenues. Boots has confirmed the departure of another senior member of management. Michael Bunting, head of treasury, will leave the company in April. Other senior staff who have left recently include Barry Clare, marketing director, and Ken Piggott, who was managing director of Boots? core business. Questions 31-35 are based on passage 1 31.

BEC真题阅读--part4--综合总结

BEC中级reading part4选词填空题巧解 阅读第四部分应试技巧—完形填空题 (一)题型介绍 BEC Vantage阅读第四部分不仅是考查对文章的理解,还考查语法、词汇和结构,如词的搭配、固定短语等。考生首先必须阅读文章,了解文章的大意,在这个基础上再根据上下文确定最佳选择。具体而言,这部分主要考查考生以下三个方面:一是语法知识,主要包括时态、语态、虚拟语气、从句、强调句、倒装句等 二是词汇,包括近义词、形近词、介词搭配、形容词搭配、动词搭配、名词搭配等; 三是考生对语篇的理解和推理能力。 (二)解题技巧 以下是这部分常见解题技巧: 1.排除无关选项:把握文章的主题,将一些看上去和文章主题毫不相关的选项排除在正确答案之外。 2.把握文章结构:充分利用文章结构来做出选择。譬如总分结构,总述是分述的总结和概括,而分述又是对总述的展开。当一些未知填空出现在总述中时,解出这些填空的相关已知线索很可能出现在与其对应的分述部分。 3.积累商务词汇: 4.从文章衔接入手:如果填空题中需填人的词为名词,还需要确定其单数或复数形式。要特别注意填空题后面的代词,每个代词都会表明它所代表的名词或名词短语。因此,找到填空题后面的代词,对确定所要填入的名词有很大帮助。如果是动词,也应确定其相应

的形式,如是否用第三人称单数等。 (三)答题步骤 考生可按以下步骤做题: 1.把握文章主旨:细读文章首句。与其他阅读部分不同,完形填空的第一句一般不留空白(或者空白处是例子,答案已给),是完整的一句,全文信息从此开始,通过该句预测文章主旨。然后,快速浏览全文,阅读时要一气呵成,尽管有空格、生词或不明白之处,仍要快速读下去;注意找出关键词、核心词,划出承上启下的词组,以便于抓住文章主旨和线索,形成思路。 2.灵活选择答案:注意从上下文及其逻辑关系人手寻找最佳选项。先读所填词的句子及其上下文。如果一句中有两处空白,在做题时要“双管齐下”,在两处同时试填,然后通读全句,确定答案。如果答案一时难以确定,可从语法结构、词语搭配、上下文语境、习惯用法、词义辨析等方面,对选项逐一分析试填,从而排除干扰项,判定最佳选项。 3.速读填好的短文:考生在检查已填好的文章时应注意上下文的一致性,即时态语态的一致,代词、连词、单复数的一致;注意语法、惯用法、习惯搭配,看是否符合上下文的逻辑;同时也应注意段与段之间、句与句之间的衔接是否自然、连贯。 常考点: 1、固定搭配,尤其是动词固定搭配 2、动词加副词性小品词搭配 3、词的辨析 4、选在商务英语中经常考察的词,不要选自己不认识的词,不要想得太复杂 5、常考词 1)Base \basis On the basis of\be based on\customer base\manufacture base\skill base\use base其他情况使

The industry has also become a byword for money-making skills but its wealth has also brought many enemies. 2)According to the article, what are the main inconveniences for a company to be a publicly quoted company The main inconveniences for a publicly quoted company include: its executives have to face intrusive media coverage; it has to obey strict and long corporate-governance codes; it also has to face the threats of activist investors and short sellers and the scrutiny by some politicians. 3)What are the main reasons for a company to get listed on a stockmarket Traditionally there are three main reasons to get a company’s share listed on a stockmarket. The first is to raise capital, either to expand the business or to allow the founders to realise their wealth. The second is to help retain staff, who can be offered share options as an incentive to stay and work hard. The third involves prestige; customers, suppliers and potential employees may be reassured (and attracted) by the apparent seal of approval given by a public listing. Meanwhile, being publicly listed gives a company better access to fund investors and retail investors. 4)Why are companies in the Anglo-Saxon economies reluctant to borrow from banks Companies in the Anglo-Saxon economies were reluctant to borrow from banks because their often felt nervous about the possibility of the sudden withdrawal of credit from the banks, due to a change in lending policy, new management or an economic downturn. 5)According to the article, what are the main sources for today’s companies to raise money (including equity capital and debt) Nowadays the main sources for companies to raise money are: first, equity market; second, banks, though much less important than they used to be; third, bond market; fourth, private equity. 6)How do private-equity firms respond to the problems identified by Professor Jensen with regard to public companies Professor Jensen argued that the structure of a public company creates an inherent conflict between investors and the managers they hire to run the business, particularly with regard to the use of free cash flow. He also argued

第2单元 出口、进口与对等贸易 辨认出口机会 出口面临的一个最大障碍就是信息的匮乏。通常一个公司的产品会有许多需求市场,不过由于许多需求市场都不在本国,基于文化、语言、距离以及时间的不同,公司很难找到这些需求市场。事实上全世界有180多个国家,各个国家之间又有很大的文化差异,这些使得辨认出口机会更加困难了。面对这样复杂以及多样化的市场,企业很多时候在寻找出口伙伴时显得优柔寡断也就不足为奇了。 国际比较 克服出口信息不对称的办法就是尽可能的搜集信息。我们先以德国为例。德国有一些贸易协会、政府代理商以及商业银行为企业牵线搭桥,帮一些小公司寻找出口机会。日本也有类似这样的商业机构,譬如日本国际工商业会社,总是积极地帮出口商寻找出口机会。此外,日本许多公司都是综合商社的分公司。综合商社是日本特有的综合贸易公司,由于办事处遍布全世界,它能够积极不断地为大大小小的分公司提供各种出口信息。日本、德国公司的一个最大优势就是能够为他们的出口企业搜集到世界各地的技术经验、出口信息以及其他资源。 与德国、日本那些竞争对手相比,美国的许多企业在寻找出口机会时就显得有些盲目,在信息搜集上处于劣势。这种差异一部分是历史上的原因。长期以来日本、德国都把对外贸易作为支柱产业,而美国一直到近期还是一个相对自给型的国家,对外贸易在美国经济当中只占据很小的一部分。虽然近两年美国对外贸易在国内经济当中的分量比20年前重了许多,然而美国依然没有一个类似于日本或者德国那样的商业机构帮助出口企业搜集信息。 信息来源 尽管美国处于劣势,美国企业也在不断提高搜寻出口机会的意识。美国商务部及其在全国各地的办公室是美国最大的出口信息源,其下属的两个独立机构——国际贸易局、美国对外商业服务中心都致力于为企业提供智力援助并且积极地帮助企业拓展海外市场。 他们为潜在出口商提供一份“光辉前程”名单,名单上列出了某种行业海外市场潜在经销商的名称、地址及联系方式。此外,美国商务部专门成立了一个针对海外14个主要出口市场的“比较购物服务”中心。企业缴纳很少的费用就可以获得一份某产品目标市场的顾客调查报告,报告不仅提供该产品海外市场的可销售性,而且对竞争者、比较价格、营销渠道以及可能的销售代表人员都作了详尽的描述。调查报告是由美国商务部的官员进行实地考察而得出的。 商务部还会组织一些贸易活动帮助潜在出口商与外界接触,拓展海外市场。在一些大城市举办的国际贸易展览会上,美国商务部也会组织出口企业参展。另外,美国
