填空题Translation.(北京科技大学2008研,考试科目:基础英语)"Time" , says the proverb "is money" . This means that every moment well-spent may put some money into our pockets. If our time is usefully employed, it will either turn out some useful and important piece of work which will fetch its price in the market, or it will add to our experience and increase our capacities so as to enable us to earn money when the proper opportunity comes. There can thus be no doubt that time is convertible into money. Let those who think nothing of wasting time, remember this: let them remember that an hour misspent is equivalent to the loss of a banknote: and that an hour utilized is tantamount to so much silver or gold: and then they will probably think twice before they give their consent to the loss of any part of their time.

填空题Today there is widespread agreement that multinational corporations will have an important effect on international relations and world economy. But there is little agreement on exactly what that effect will be. There are two groups of those who see them as benevolent and those who see them as evil. Among those who see multinational corporations as benevolent, many emphasize their importance in helping reduce the gap between rich countries and poor ones. These business giants are referred to as "engines of development" because it is claimed that they do more to improve the economic life in less developed countries than all governmental foreign aid programs have ever done. By setting up factories abroad, they provide jobs; by equipping these factories with the latest machines and equipment, they make available the most modern technology. (1) . In fact, they do better on their own. It may have been necessary in the mid-nineteen century for Admiral Perry to threaten the Japanese with naval bombardment if they did not allow western countries to trade with them. Such threats would make no sense today. (2) . The leaders of multinational corporations see patriotism as old-fashioned, the nation-state obsolete, and war in pursuit of national glory downright foolish. They believe that the multinational corporation is "a modern concept evolved to meet the requirements of modern age", while the nation-state is "still rooted in archaic concepts unsympathetic to the need of our complex world." (3) . "I think," an official of General Electric once said, "getting General Electric everywhere in the world is the biggest thing we can do for world peace." These proponents of the multinational corporations come by and large from the business world. There are, however, many critics among academic students of multinational corporations who regard them as a sinister force. They have produced detailed studies to prove that the benefits of multinational corporations are mostly illusory. To the claim that multinational corporations provide jobs, they point out that this is at the cost of jobs in other countries. To the claim that multinational corporations transfer technology, they reply: (1) often the equipment shipped overseas is out of date; (2) their technology is often unsuitable for many of the less developed countries where labor is plentiful and therefore cheap. (4) . Therefore, they maintain that instead of being the "engines of development", the multinational corporations are actually "engines of impoverishment". These critics do not deny that consumption of the products of these corporations has risen in countries around the world. (5) . Therefore, although these corporations may breakdown national frontiers they strengthen class distinctions, widening the gap between the rich and the poor, creating greater social injustice and instability. A. The long, expensive American war in Vietnam did not bring new opportunities in Southeast Asia for the multinational corporations. The decision of the Nixon administration to improve relations with China was more profitable to them. B. The fact that both American teenagers and Mexican peasants are drinking Coca Cola does not mean that the life of the Mexican peasants is getting better due to the multinational corporations. C. They therefore characterize themselves as hard-headed people who are helping to bring about a more cooperative system or world order by breaking down national, geographical, political, economic and ideological barriers. D. One study actually showed that multinational corporations do not invest capital from wealthy countries, but prefer to finance their operations from the local economy. In other words, they are simply transferring wealth from poorer countries to richer ones. E. According to these critics, states will soon realize that they have lost their control over issues such as taxation, employment and even the stability of their own currency. F. But they point out that this so-called "Global Shopping Center" is available only to a very small portion of the local population. G. Because goods are now produced within the less developed countries, there is less need for them to import from abroad, and their balance of payments will improve. Multinational corporations today do not need their countries to provide military force to open foreign countries to their investment, products and sales.

填空题Please translate the following English into Chinese.(国际关系学院2010研,考试科目:英语综合(英汉互译)Understanding Key Economic IndicatorsIn these times when market forces appear increasingly complicated and more volatile, it is all the more important to understand the professional jargon and terminology in the market place in order to be able to better make our investment and business decisions. Understanding key economic indicators will assist in the decision making process, providing a snapshot of the current situation and an insight into the future.Each economic indicator tells us something about the economy or inflation. Gross Domestic Product(GDP)is probably the most important report as it is the whole framework where other economic indicators fall under. Using the textbook formula where Gross National Product = Consumption + Investment + Government Spending + Exports -Imports, some of the indicators will fall into the above-mentioned category e. g. retail sales figures will fall under Consumption, construction spending under Investment, to name a few. There are also indicators that are broader that tell us about the economy itself rather than the component, e. g. employment figures, leading indicators, money supply figures(M3). Inflation figures, Produce Price Index(PPI)and the Consumer Price Index(CPI)will, in short, inform us of the changes in wholesale prices, cost of consumer(retail)goods and services respectively.An indicator that is useful must be accurate, timely and reliable. It depends entirely on the integrity of the national statistical system responsible. It is vital to know the accurate components of an indicator. We have to be mindful of the limitation of these statistical figures too.Some indicators can be historic or extremely volatile, and therefore their value are reduced. It is better to compare the most recent data with earlier months, or take a moving average for the past 3 , 6 or 12 months to smooth the data. It will tell us if there has been a significant change in trend and whether a new direction is under way.Timeliness of an indicator is also significant. Although the reported figures are important, it is crucial to recognize that markets react to the variance to the consensus forecast than to the absolute change in the indicator. Markets do not like surprises and can be frustrated with volatility upon subsequent revisions to the numbers published, even though significance of the absolute number diminishes with each passing month.In the U. S. , together with the monthly employment report released on the first Friday of the month, an important survey by U. S. National Association of Purchasing Management(NAPM)is released within the first three business day of the mouth, which tracks the economic movements fairly well. These two reports are considered by many as valuable adjunct to the Commerce Department"s index of leading indicators.The Index of Leading Economic Indicators(LEI)in the U. S. acts as an early warning system, telling us whenthe economy is about to change direction. This composite index of 11 leading indicators has a good record of providing accurate forecasts. The total index performs better as a prediction tool than any of its parts. This monthly figure is available on the last business day of the month. As a general rule, turning points in the economy are signalled by three consecutive months of LEI changes in the same direction. This leading indicator is like a lighthouse, giving the rest of the world economies a glimpse of the direction of the world"s largest economy.

填空题 The best way to calm down concerns about doctors' and researchers' financial conflicts of interest is to require full disclosure, according to an expert report that adds its voice to a growing chorus. A panel of the National Academies' Institute of Medicine (IOM) says faculty members at medical institutions should be required to report all industry money they receive from outside their institution to special committees. {{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}But IOM's mostly voluntary plan has an important selling point, some say: It could head off more-intrusive federal regulations. Panel members agreed that some action is called for. "Many relationships between researchers and industry are very constructive, but it has to be overseen and kept in bounds," says panel chair Bernard Lo, a bioethicist at the University of California, San Francisco. {{U}} {{U}} 2 {{/U}} {{/U}}Similar concerns resulted in a ban on all such payments to scientists at National Institutes of Health, Lo notes. More recently, as part of an ongoing investigation, Senator Chuck Grassley has identified several psychiatrists who allegedly failed to disclose hundreds of thousands of dollars in consulting income. Disclosure is "a critical but limited first step" toward addressing conflicts of interest, the IOM panel concludes. {{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}Companies should also disclose money given to institutions, scientific societies, patient groups, and basic researchers, the report says, because their work can lead to clinical trials. Three of the 17 panel members recommended that physicians and researchers themselves also be required to publicly report their financial ties with companies, including stock.{{U}} {{U}} 4 {{/U}} {{/U}} As a rule, the report says, institutions should ensure that if a significant conflict exists, a researcher "may not conduct research with human participants" unless his or her role is essential to the research.{{U}} {{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}} Many of these steps have been recommended in past reports from the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), which has also endorsed the company payments database. But not all schools have followed AAMC's advice. "We give a pretty clear warning," Lo says. "If the institutions don't get their act together, they're really inviting the legislators to step in." A. It urges research and physician organizations to develop a standard reporting format. And it endorses a proposal similar to one from Grassley to require that drug and device companies report payments to physicians in a public database. B. That, he warns, could lead to "very, very blunt" regulations and "a risk that valuable relationships will be cut in ways that will hurt patients." C. The policy recommended by IOM would be far more intrusive than current U.S. rules, which require National Institutes of Health grantees to report to their own institutions outside income of more than $10,000 per year. D. The report also recormnends that institutions ban faculty members from accepting drug company gifts, serving as a spokesperson for a company, and authoring articles ghost-written by industry. E. Such payments would also have to be reported publicly by the companies. F. But the others disagreed partly because they felt it would be expensive, could intrude on privacy, and would not add much to the company database. G. IOM decided to undertake the study two years ago amid growing concerns that academic researchers who took drug company payments were withholding data from publication or otherwise biasing results.
