{{B}}Auction Sales{{/B}}Auctions are public sales of goods
conducted by an officially approved auctioneer. He asks the crowd gathered in
the auction-room to make offers, or "bids", for the various items on sale. He
encourages buyers to bid higher figures, and finally names the highest bidder as
the buyer of the goods.{{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}. Among
these are coffee, skins, wool, tea, fruit, vegetables, and wines. Auction sales
are also useful for land and property, antique furniture, pictures, rare books,
old china, and works of art. An auction is usually advertised beforehand with a
full description of the articles to be sold and{{U}} {{U}} 2
{{/U}} {{/U}}. If the advertisement cannot give full details, catalogues are
printed, and each group of goods to be sold together, called a "lot", is usually
given a number. The auctioneer need not begin with Lot 1 and continue with Lot
2, Lot 3 and so on; he may wait until he sees certain dealers in the room and
then produces the lots they are likely to be interested in. The auctioneer's
services are paid for{{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}. The auctioneer
therefore has a direct interest in pushing up the bidding as high as
possible.The auctioneer must know{{U}} {{U}} 4 {{/U}}
{{/U}}. He will not waste time by starting the bidding too low. He will also
encourage the rivals among buyers to bid against each other in order to get a

price, that is, {{U}} {{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}}. Even the best
auctioneers, however, find it difficult to stop a "knock-out" (连裆拍货), because
dealers illegally arranged beforehand not to bid against each other, but choose
one of them as the only bidder, in the hope of buying goods at extremely low
prices. If such a "knock-out" succeeds, the real auction sale takes place
privately afterwards among the dealers.A Almost all goods of various
qualities are sold by auction.B a price below which the goods cannot
be sold.C Through Auction the seller usually can get a high
price.D quite accurately the current market values of the goods he is
selling, and he should be acquainted with regular buyers of such
goods.E for the various items on sale.F in the form of a
percentage of the price the goods are sold for.G where and when they
can be viewed by possible buyers.

填空题Preparing for Exhibitions An exhibition is an excellent way of generating new business for companies, both large and small, and offers many advantages, such as obtaining sales leads, competitor intelligence, and learning more about industry development and trends., An exhibition should be seen as an integral element of an overall sales and marketing campaign. Companies that fail to plan their participation carefully could find exhibiting costly and unproductive. The success of any show is greatly influenced by the way exhibitors market themselves. If a new product launch is planned, for example, a good-sized demonstration area is needed with facilities for taking and following up leads. A stand manager should be appointed from the start. Forward planning of budgets is essential. (8) An exhibition is an ideal and highly effective platform for new product launches. (9) Make sure that you plan to use your exhibition as a focus for presenting something new either about your products/services or your company and ensure that you publicize any newsworthy information to maximize interest. Trade journals are keen to publicize new products and services, and often compile special preview issues prior to an exhibition. (10) (11) The guides produced by some exhibitions offer detailed information on all promotional opportunities around the show. Valerie Thompson, marketing director of Reed Exhibitions, says: "We realize how vital it is for exhibiting companies to plan way ahead of an exhibition. We do our utmost to encourage our exhibitors to maximize their participation in an event. (12) ". A. A number of exhibition organizations also provide free guides and services. B. Lead times for publications can be anything from 6 to 24 weeks before publication and it is essential that details are sent in time. C. Meetings on pre-show activities should be held to ensure all personnel are clear about recent developments. D. Research by the Exhibition Marketing Group shows that 61% of visitors are attracted to exhibitions by new products and technology. E. Make sure that any mail sent out about your company has details of your participation. F. The cost of exhibition space, transportation, and other related issues need to be considered well in advance. G. The success of any show is greatly influenced by the way exhibitors market themselves.
填空题·Read the article below about foreign exchange trading.·Choose the best
sentence to fill in each of the gaps.·For each gap 8-12, mark one
letter(A-G)on your Answer Sheet.·Do not use any letter more than once.
{{B}}Foreign Exchange Trading{{/B}}Without foreign
exchange trading, international trade itself could not exist. In former times
trade was based on bartering—goods were exchanged for other goods. The
introduction of precious metals (i.e., gold and silver) to pay for goods can be
considered the forerunner of the foreign exchange market. The Greeks and Romans
commonly used gold as a medium of exchange. Most world trade continued to be
based on gold until the nineteenth century. But then industrialization in
Western Europe and the United States had boosted world trade to such an extent
that gold reserver were no longer adequate to meet the requirements. Governments
introduced a par value of their respective local currencies in gold. Thus, the
currencies were related to one another through a system called the gold
standard. The gold standard system determined the value of all currencies based
on gold.{{U}} (8) {{/U}}The system worked well until World War I, when
trade was interrupted. After the war, currencies fluctuated widely in terms of
gold and, thus, in relation to each other. The value of currencies was meant to
be regulated by supply and demand (the market mechanism), but speculators often
interfered with this mechanism. So in an effort to create more stable exchange
markets, some countries, notably the United States, England, and France,
returned to the gold standard.{{U}} (9) {{/U}}By 1971 it was the only
country whose currency remained convertible into gold, and se, by declaring the
dollar inconvertible, the gold standard was finally abolished.In 1944 toward
the end of World War Ⅱ, the Western industrialized nations realized that foreign
trade would be necessary to quickly and effectively heal the wounds of war. To
create a calm and stable foreign exchange market, the United States government
called for a conference in the summer of 1944. It was held in Bretton Woods, New
Hampshire.{{U}} (10) {{/U}}The Bretton Woods Agreement stipulated
that all member countries would express the value of their currencies in gold.
However, only the United States dollar was convertible into gold, at the price
of $ 35 an ounce.Central banks of the member countries were required to
intervene in the foreign exchange markets to keep the value of their currencies
within 1 percent of the par value. This intervention was achieved by buying or
selling foreign exchange or gold. A given currency could, therefore, never rise
above nor fall below fixed points, which are called intervention points. These
are the prices beyond which the central bank intervenes.{{U}} (11)
{{/U}}The system of fixed early 1970s. At that time a number of
countries devalued their currencies. This meant that their currencies were now
worth less in terms of gold. England in 1967, France in 1969, and the United
States in 1971 and 1973, devalued their currencies, This caused an almost
unprecedented turbulence in the foreign exchange markets. In addition, countries
such as West Germany and Holland revalued their currencies (increased the par
value of their currencies in terms of gold). Intervention by central banks
became very costly. Foreign currency and gold reserves were drained.{{U}}
(12) {{/U}}A This meant the values of different
currencies could be compared in terms of one another.B At this
conference, both the International MONETARY Fund (IMF) and the International
Bank for Reconstruction and Development were established.C The Greeks
and Romans commonly used gold as a medium of exchange.D It is not
surprising, then, that the world saw a return to such payment.E Except
for a brief period in the early 1930s, the United States stayed on the gold
standard.F Countries had to buy their own currency with gold and
foreign exchange in order to keep its value above the minimum intervention
point, as agreed a Bretton Woods.G This is called the system of fixed
exchange rates.
