问题 15: 15. 阅读理解:根据文章内容,判断正误(每题10分)。 Traveller’s Check   Many of the banks and travel services in western provide a convenience for travellers by issuing traveller's checks. Travellers, when buying the checks, have to sign the checks in the presence of the bank or service clerks. During the trip, travellers can cash the checks from the agencies of the bank or the travel service whenever they need after their counter-signatures are recognized. A lot of travellers like to buy these checks as they don't have to take along much cash and worry about counterfeit signatures. The agencies will get back the money they have paid by sending the checks to the issuing offices.      Traveller's checks are generally of small face value, such as ten or twenty dollars, or five or ten pounds, for miscellaneous payments. There is no time limit for their circulation period. It is very profitable for the issuing offices to finance the funds they collect by issuing traveller's checks because they not only receive a service charge from the check buyers, but they also don't need to pay any interest no matter how long the checks remain in circulation before clearing. This is why banks and travel services are willing to provide this convenience.  It is convenient for the travellers to travel around the world as many banks and travel services issue travellers' checks. 2. There are no signatures of travellers who have bought the checks. 3. Quite a few travellers like to buy the checks. 4. Travellers do not worry about the circulation period of the checks as there is no time limit for it. 5. Banks and travel services are reluctant to provide travellers'checks.

问题 23: 8. 阅读理解:根据文章内容,判断正误(每题10分)。 The Golden Rules of Negotiating   The art of negotiating is a difficult skill for most of us, even good salespeople. Here are three golden rules for you to follow:    Always Start the Negotiations.   You must initiate the process. This is because whoever controls the start of the negotiations tends to control where they end. If you let the other party start negotiations, you will be constantly giving up control, often without even realizing it. For instance, when you ask someone what his project budget is, you are allowing him to start the negotiations. You will then spend your time chasing his number rather than finding the best solution. So, never let the other party control the negotiations.   2. Always Negotiate in Writing.   The purpose of negotiations is to arrive at a formal written agreement, not tell a story or spend time talking. From the first moment you begin a proposal, you should create a document and take it to the client. It will include all the points of agreement and become real to the prospective customer. Negotiating first and then having to create a document adds unnecessary time to a transaction. But if you build your written agreement as you negotiate, you are prepared to ask for a signature the moment the decision to buy is made.   3. Always Stay Cool.   The negotiation table can be loaded with agendas, egos and emotions. Great negotiators know how to stay cool, providing leadership and solutions, while the rest of the room becomes insanely invested in personal agendas and useless emotions. Crying, getting angry and blowing off steam may make you feel good, but such behavior will not benefit you while negotiating. When the rest of the room gets emotional, stay cool and use logic to negotiate and close. 1. If you let the other party start negotiations, you will be completely grasp the control, often without even realizing it. 2. So, never let both parties control the negotiations. 3. Negotiating first and then having to create a document doesn’t need necessary time to a transaction. 4. Great negotiators know how to stay cool, providing leadership and solutions, while the rest of the room becomes wild or helpless during the negotiation. 5. When the rest of the room gets out of control, stay cool and use logic to negotiate and close.

问题 61: 10. 阅读理解:根据文章内容,判断正误(每题10分)。 Online Shopping Spree Sets Record   Chinese shoppers spent billions online yesterday as they took advantage of discounts offered on Singles Day (November 11). It is a festival for young single people to celebrate by eating together, sending gifts or going shopping, thus seized on by online retailers to increase sales.   It took only 13 hours for sales on just two online sites, Taobao and Tmall, to fly past last year's overall total of 19.1 billion yuan (US$3.1 billion).The final figure of Singles Day reached an astonishing 35.02 billion yuan as hundreds of thousands of consumers rushed to buy clothes, furniture, and home decoration items at discount prices. What friends and colleagues greeted each other with that day was “Bought anything today?” as they exchanged tales of bargains or disappointing news of popular items sold out minutes after the spree began at midnight.   In under nine hours, turnover at the Alibaba Group's Tmall and Taobao sites had exceeded that of last year's Cyber Monday, a similar event in the United States.   “We hope other e-commerce sites also did a good job as we want Singles Day to be a holiday for consumers and a good chance for retailers to discover the unmet needs of shoppers,” Jack Ma, founder and chairman of Alibaba Group, told reporters.   “It's not a difficult thing to bring our total transaction size to 100 billion yuan in a couple of years but we hope to do more to help vendors and manufacturers to upgrade their products and service to reach more clients,” Ma said at a news briefing. Online retailers took hold of the shopping spree to increase sales successfully. 2. The final figure of Singles Day for this year reached 19.1 billion yuan. 3. Cyber Monday is a similar event in the Great Britain. 4. Other e-commerce sites did as well as Alibaba Group on Singles Day. 5. Jack Ma's goal of transaction size is to reach 100 billion yuan in several years.

问题 64: 13. 阅读理解:根据文章内容,选择正确答案(每题10分)。 Cyber Monday Clicks in with Record Sales   Cyber Monday rocked while mobile sales roared.   The day widely regarded as the Super Bowl of online sales created a record day for retailers, including Walmart, and marked a shift in shopping preferences as smartphones and tablets drove nearly a third of traffic — and for some retailers, more than half.   Walmart.com expects to register its biggest Cyber Monday yet, coming off a record Black Friday weekend online. Heading into the afternoon Monday, the website had already sold out of PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles, which weren't even discounted. Significant savings on TVs and tablets also encouraged shopping, says Joel Anderson, CEO of Walmart.com.   Retailers from Target to Sears are fast evolving Cyber Monday into something more akin to Cyber Week, as online deals stretch well beyond Monday.   As of 6 p.m. ET, sales on Amazon were up 44.3% over last year, while sales at eBay were up 32.1%, according to Channel Advisor, which tracks third-party sellers on eBay and Amazon. The online marketplaces are doing well in part because shoppers are heading to those sites to find popular products that are selling out at regular retailers, says Scot Wingo, CEO of Channel Advisor.   Flash-sale site Rue La La started Cyber Monday deals on Sunday with a “Cyberthon” that drew more than 350,000 people to the site. The sale promoted as much as 80% off on more than 150 brands. On Monday, sales of Cole Haan and Pandora Jewelry merchandise were strongest, CEO Steve Davis says.

问题 70: 6. 完形填空:选择正确答案,补全文章(每题10分)。 Alibaba Seeks to Raise Billions in IPO   Investors in the United States are preparing for the first public sale of stock in the Chinese company Alibaba. The company sells goods linking buyers and sellers in the huge Chinese online market. Alibaba is expected to its initial public offering, called an IPO, in September on the New York Stock Exchange.   The total value of the company, based in Hangzhou, has been estimated at about $200 billion. Reports from Bloomberg News say Alibaba is offering investors a 12 percent of the company. That would mean the company could raise $20 billion dollars in the public stock sale. After the IPO, Alibaba could become one of the most technology companies in the world. Apple, for example, has a market value of about $600 billion. Google is valued at about $390 billion and Microsoft is worth about $370 billion.

问题 73: 9. 阅读理解:根据文章内容,选择正确答案(每题10分)。 Organizing a Business in Different Ways   Businesses are structured in different ways to meet different needs. The simplest form of business is called an individual or sole proprietorship. The proprietor owns all of the property of the business and is responsible for everything.   Another kind of business is a partnership. Two or more people go into business together. An agreement is usually needed to decide how much of the partnership each person controls. One kind of partnership is called a limited liability partnership. These have full partners and limited partners. Limited partners may not share as much in the profits, but they also have less responsibility for the business. Doctors, lawyers and accountants often form partnerships to share their risks and profits. A husband and wife can form a business partnership together. Partnerships exist only for as long as the owners remain alive. The same is true of individual proprietorships.   But corporations are designed to have an unlimited lifetime. A corporation is the most complex kind of business organization. Corporations can sell stock as a way to raise money. Stocks represent shares of ownership in a company. Investors who buy stock can trade their shares or keep them as long as the company is in business.   A corporation is recognized as an entity—its own legal being, separate from its owners. A board of directors controls corporate policies. The directors appoint top company officers. The directors might or might not hold shares in the corporation. Corporations can have a few major shareholders, or ownership can be spread among the general public. But not all corporations are traditional businesses that sell stock. Some non-profit groups are also organized as corporations. This passage is mainly about . A. why different forms of business run B. when different forms of business raise money C. how different forms of business are organized 2. What is usually needed to decide the portion of the partnership each person controls? A. A rule. B. An agreement. C. A regulation. 3. Who are not included in limited liability partnerships? A. Full partners. B. Limited partners. C. Unlimited partners. 4. How can corporations raise money? A. By selling stock. B. By buying stock. C. By holding corporation shares. 5. Who controls corporate policies in a corporation? A. Chairman of the board. B. A board of directors. C. The owner of the corporation.
