2、fashion but weighed down by too many old industries and old ideas. From microchips to microbes, poor old Europe seems to trail in Americas and Asias wake.America enjoys awesome advantages over Europe. It is a huge,truly single market with a relatively youthful,growing population. It is the worlds economic superpower, with much higher productivity than its competitors (though productivity growth has recently been disappointing, and last year was slightly below Europes). It has world-class univers

3、ities that work hand in glove with businesses. Americans have not only won more Nobel prizes, they have turned more scientific advances into profitable businesses than anyone else. Many of these firms have gone on to become the giants of modern business.It may have been a British scientist, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, working at a laboratory in Switzerland, who invented the world wide web, but America is the home of the Internet and all the business sectors it has spawned. And even where Europe is hold

4、ing its own against America, it seems unable to retain its advantage. Boeing drifted badly in the 1990s as Europes Airbus made strides, but having merged with McDonnell Douglas, the American giant bounced back. It is now taking market share from the Europeans.Americas economic growth, averaging 2. 5% a year since 2001, has reflected this dynamic business culture, whereas Europe has managed an average growth rate of barely 1.5% over the same period, though the pace has picked up in the past year.

5、 Europes sluggish performance is often put down to the poor business climate. Rigid labor laws and strong unions make it difficult for firms to fire redundant workers and unattractive to hire new ones. Product markets are not as competitive as Americas, and the single European market has yet to become a reality in areas such as banking and services.Corporate governance too is variable: transparent and world-class in Britain,but often inadequate in continental Europe. Moreover, European governmen

6、ts like to meddle. France has drawn up a list of strategic industries, including casinos, that it thinks need special protection from foreign takeovers. Even Spain, with its new Anglo-Saxon business culture, tried to stop a German utility from taking over a Spanish power company. Telecom Italias attempts to hive off its mobile-phone business became highly politicized.Many European politicians are fearful about the effects of globalization and the rise of China and India. Certainly Asia has been

7、making itself more strongly felt in Europe in recent years. Japan now has car factories in France and the Czech Republic as well as in Britain, and imports from South Koreas resurgent car industry have been causing difficulties at Renault and PSA Peugeot Criterion. Indias Tata Group too is planning to export cars to some southern and eastern European markets where they will provide more competition for the traditional west European manufacturers.【答案】美国经济走势让人肃然起敬, 日益崛起的亚洲生机勃勃, 而欧洲则如昔日黄花, 过分追求奢侈品、

8、时尚和美酒佳肴。落后的产业和陈旧的观念压得欧洲气喘吁吁。微芯片也好, 微生物也罢, 可怜的老朽欧罗巴似乎在步美国和亚洲的后尘。即使是欧洲本土能与美国抗衡的产业似乎也难以为继。20世纪90年代, 欧洲空客公司大踏步前进, 而波音公司发展十分缓慢, 但同麦克唐纳-道格拉斯公司合并以后, 美国的这家巨型企业迅速反弹, 正在抢占空客的欧洲份额。此外, 欧洲各国政府也喜欢插上一脚。法国列出了一些战略发展产业, 连博彩业也包括在内, 因为法国认为该产业需要特别保护以防外国兼并。甚至西班牙在新盎格鲁-萨克逊商业文化影响下, 也阻止德国公用事业公司接管西班牙电力企业, 而意大利电信公司试图从该国移动电话领域分离出去竟成为高度政治化的事件。3. 写作题In this part, you are required to write an essay of no less than 200 words on Private Schools in China.

9、isadvantages;3.Your comments.【答案】Private Schools in ChinaIt is known to all that more and more private schools have been set up in our country since 1990s. To a certain degree, those schools are able to make up for the shortage of schools in China. With the advent of more and more private schools, a lot of people show their interest in them. As a result, many students have been enrolled in these schools.Private schools have many advantages. First of all, they relieve the financial burden of the government. Although the government has kept providing money for establishing pubic schools, it cannot satisfy the increasing demand of public education. Besides, these schools usually provide a better learning environment for students consisting of better facilities and better teaching equipment. Furthermore, the salary of teachers in private schools is normally higher than th
