题目解答

答案

(1)考查动词短语。句意:大学毕业后,我在当地一家银行工作,20多岁时过上了舒适的生活。分析可知,此处为句子谓语,根据句意可知,此处表示"过上舒适的生活",动词短语secure a comfortable life符合语境,结合前文worked可知,句子是在叙述过去的事情,应用一般过去时。故填secured a comfortable life。
(2)考查名词短语。句意:这次访问帮助我结束了为继续这份我不喜欢的工作而进行的漫长斗争。分析可知,此处为句子宾语,根据句意可知,此处表示"漫长的斗争",名词短语lengthy struggle符合语境。故填lengthy struggle。
(3)考查形容词短语。句意:现在我正在学习历史和考古学,我对自己的决定感到满意。分析可知,此处为句子谓语,根据句意可知,此处表示"感到满意",短语be contented with符合语境,结合时间状语now可知,此处是在叙述现在的一般状况,应用一般现在时,主语为I,be动词应用am。故填am contented with。
(4)考查动词短语。句意:由于我们彼此不认识,我做好了迎接她的抗拒的准备。分析可知,此处为句子谓语,根据句意可知,此处表示"做好准备",动词短语brace oneself for符合语境,结合前文didn't可知,句子是在叙述过去的事情,应用一般过去时,主语为I,反身代词应用myself。故填braced myself for。
(5)考查名词短语。句意:但我们聊得很愉快,她对生活的热爱和对未来计划的明确让我感到惊讶。分析可知,此处与and前的her love of life并列作宾语,根据句意可知,此处表示"对......的明确",名词短语clarity about符合语境。故填clarity about。

  • The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding.
