单选题In recent decades, there is a phenomenon which makes us give some attention, the so-called Southeast Asian "tigers" have rivaled the western "lions" for stock cliches that make economic headlines. The myth of American economic hegemony over Asia in the imposing and patriarchal figure of Uncle Sam has provided frequent political grist(有利)for Southeast Asian political leaders, particularly Malaysia's Prime Minister Mahathir. He has attempted to forge an international reputation as a snarling tiger, but lately sounds more like a barnyard dog groaning at shadows. Without demeaning in any way the remarkable achievements of the newly developing economics of Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia, these nations at times appear to be their own worst enemies. This is often exemplified by Dr. Mahathir, who rails at Western evil whenever an international or domestic crisis provides an opportunity.
To be more specific, the recent devaluation of the Philippine and Thai currencies, and the subsequent pressure on the Malaysian currency has inspired Dr. Mahathir to launch an all-out attack on the West as the source of the problem. He even alleges that the United States has deliberately destabilized Southeast Asian economics in revenge for these nations, supporting the brutal military rule in Mahathir, an action which the United States seems to want inspected rather than rewarded. But by resorting to such scapegoat(替罪羊), instead of accepting even a bit responsibility, the Prime Minister may undermine the future success of the region and Malaysia in particular.
Upon further questioning, Dr. Mahathir narrowed his attack to one wealthy individual, the well-known philanthropist(慈善家), Mr. George Soros, whose opposition to Myanmar's admission to ASEAN(Association of Southeast Asian Nations)Mahathir found particularity, irritating. The logical mistakes that underlie such conspiracy theories do not help Malaysia address the serious issues of economic overheating that experts have been warning about for all these difficult periods,
which
include large deficits and low savings to debt ratios. In fact, the recent dramatic drop in Malaysia's stock market and currency has led Dr. Mahathir to reverse his initial approach to the crisis. He even announces measures that at least imply he is quite aware of excesses in his own administration' s spending policies that have contributed to this crisis of confidence. In the end, this kind of reaction undermines the esteem that Dr. Mahathir's enlightened leadership has justly earned.

单选题From: Thy Nguyen <tnguyen@pharmaone.com> To: Cyprus Winn <cwinn@pharmaone.con> Subject: Final review for the proposal Dear Cyprus, I've completed our funding proposal for the new laboratory facilities. I included everything we talked about in last week's meeting, and it will be ready to be sent out next week to the venture capital firms we selected. I'm confident it will receive a positive response. Since we have a few days before the proposal goes out, I'd really appreciate it if we could sit down together and look over everything. I added some small formatting ideas of my own that I'd like to run by you. It won't take more than a couple of hours. I'm free all afternoon today and tomorrow morning before 11:00 a.m. Please let me know if either of these times is good for you. Thanks, Sincerely, Thy Nguyen

单选题【工商银行】Imagine waking up and finding the value of your assets has been halved.No,you're not aninvestor in one of those hedge funds that failed completely.With the dollar slumping to a 26 year 10w against the pound,expensive London has become quite unaffordable.A coffee at Star bucks。just as unavoidable in England as it is in the United States,runs abou‘$8.0. The once all一powerful dollar isn't doing a Titanic against just the pound.It is sitting at a record 10w against the euro and at a 30一year low against the Canadian dollar.Even the Argentine peso and Brazilian real are thriving against the dollar. The weak dollar is a source of humiliation,for a nation's self-esteem rests in Part on the strength of its currency.It's also a potential economic problem,since a declining dollar makes imDorted food more expensive and exerts upward pressure on interest rates.And yet there are substantial sectors of the vast U.S.economy—from giant companies like Coca—Cola to mom-and pop restaurant operators in Miami—for which the weak dollar is most excellent news. Many Europeans may view the U.S.as an arrogant superpower that has become hostile to foreigners.But nothing makes people think more warmly of the U.S.than a weak dollar.Through April,the total number of visitors from abroad was up 6.8 percent from last year Should the trend continue,the number of tourists this year will finally top the 2000 peak? Many Europeans now apparently view the U.S.the way many Americans view Mexico as a cheap place to vacation,shop and party,all while ignoring the fact that the poorer locals can't afford to join the merrymaking。 The money tourists spend helps decrease our chronic trade deficit.So do exports,which thanks in part to the weak dollar,soared 11 percent between May 2006 and May 2007.For first five months of 2007,the trade deficit actually fell 7 percent from 2006. If you own shares in large American corporations,you’re a winner in the weak—dollar gamble.Last week Coca-Cola's stick bubbled to a five—year high after it reported a fantastic quarter.Foreign sales accounted for 65 percent of Coke’s beverage business.Other American companies profiting from this trend include McDonald’s and IBM. American tourists,however,shouldn't expect any relief soon.The dollar lost strength the wav many marriages break up—slowly,and then all at once.And currencies don’t turn on a dime.So if you want to avoid the pain inflicted by the increasingly pathetic dollar,cancel that summer vacation to England and look to New England.There,the dollar is still treated with a little respect.

单选题To: Technical Support Team
From: Sanchez, Hanna
Sent: Wednesday, July 10
Subject: Business Technologies Seminar
This message is to finalize the organizational details for the technical support team for next Monday's Business Technologies Seminar. Attached you will find the schedule with the names of technical assigned to the various conference rooms.
Each session runs for two hours and made up of four 30-minute presentations. Presenters have been asked to designate a timekeeper to ensure that they do not exceed their time limits. Note that there is a break between each session, which should allow you sufficient time to prepare for the next speaker.
Your job is to set up microphones adjust lighting, and address any other needs of the speakers. Speakers will not be videotaped, but several have to be recorded, so please be sure the recording equipment is in place and functioning properly. Also, room 106 does not have a computer on-site, but the presentation in the third session will require one. Fortunately, this is not a big problem because neither of the laptop computers in rooms 104 and 108 will be in use at that time. The technician assigned to room 106 for that session must remember to bring the laptop from one of those other rooms to room 106 and set it up.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
Henna Sanchez
