G Each contains all the key points in the original book, but instead of 200 to 500 pages there are only

16、eight pages. 三、 PART THREE 12 Read the article below about Common Stock and Preferred Stock and the questions. For each question (13-18), mark one letter (A, B, C or D) on your Answer Sheet. Common Stock and preferred Stock A public corporation issues certificates of ownership, called common stock,

17、which may be traded on stock exchanges. Anyone can buy and sell shares of common stock. Owners of stock are referred to as shareholders and stockholders. Common stockholders are accorded certain rights by the corporate charter. In the United States, these rights vary from state to state, but in gene

18、ral the articles of incorporation spell out voting rights and rights to receive profits. Common stockholders are the voting owners of a corporation. They are usually entitled to one vote per share. They may vote on numerous issues affecting the corporation (including a decision to sell or merge with

19、 another corporation) and elect a board of directors, who, in turn, hire managers to run the business. A majority shareholder is one who owns over 50 percent of the outstanding shares in a corporation and, thus, can call the shots. All other shareholders are minority shareholders. In large corporati

20、ons no single person or organization owns anywhere near a majority interest. In large, publicly owned corporations a shareholder with as little as 10 percent of the shares may control the corporation effectively. If things go bad, a coalition of so called dissident shareholders may gather enough vot

21、es to replace the existing board of directors; the new board may fire the existing management and bring in their own management team. Although common stock represents ownership in a company, it does not guarantee the owners a specified rate of return. As owners, the stockholders receive profits afte

22、r all expenses, including debts and taxes, have been paid. They receive profits from the business in the form of dividend payments, which represent a percentage of profits. Not all after-tax profits are paid to the stockholders in dividends. Directors usually decide quarterly how much, if any, if th

23、e profits they wish to distributed to the owners. The profits are either distributed to the owners in dividends or they are reinvested bank into the company in the form of retained earnings. If the company decides to keep the profits, the company may become more valuable and the price of the stock u

24、sually goes up. Some investors prefer profits in the way of dividends while others speculate for an increase in the price of stock. If a company goes broke, common stockholders get last claim on whatever is left over. Corporations may also issue preferred stock to investors. Preferred stock usually

25、has no vote in the election of the board of directors, but does get preference in the distribution of the companys earnings. It offers investors a different type pf security and may be issued only after common stock had been issued. The term “preferred“ applies to two conditions. First, preferred st

26、ockholders gain preferential treatment in the matter of dividends; that is, they receive a fixed rate of dividends prior to the payment of dividends on common shares. Second, if the company goes out of business or liquidates, preferred stockholders are closer to the front of the line than common sto

27、ckholders when distributing the companys assets. Dividends to preferred stock may be cumulative or noncumulative. Cumulative preferred stock maintained its claim to dividends even if the company had a bad year in 1994, they might decide not to pay dividends. But if they had a good year in 1995, and

28、declared stock dividends do not accumulate. If dividends are not declared, noncumulative owners lose their claim to the profit of that period. In short, common stock usually has more control through voting privileges, greater chance for high returns and more risk, whereas preferred stock usually has

29、 less control, fixed returns, less risks, and less chance for big gains. 13 Common stock traded on stock exchanges represents ( A) the voting rights the stockholders have. ( B) the stock shared by common people. ( C) the profits the shareholders receive. ( D) the ownership of a public corporation. 1

30、4 The second paragraph describes ( A) the returns to common stockholders. ( B) the majority and minority stockholders. ( C) the voting rights of common stockholders. ( D) the formation of common stock. 15 The main purpose of the third paragraph is to tell us ( A) the rate of returns to the stockhold

31、ers. ( B) the risk of common stockholders. ( C) the distribution of profits to the stockholders. ( D) the benefits of common stock. 16 One of the differences between common stock and preferred stock lies in that ( A) the former is safer in getting dividends. ( B) common stockholders get more stable

32、profits. ( C) the latter qets more fixed returns. ( D) preferred stockholders have more rights in voting. 17 With cumulative preferred stock, stockholders can ( A) claim to the former profits when the company has a good year. ( B) have more control over the company. ( C) claim to the former profits

33、when the company had a bad year. ( D) receive high returns. 18 For those who want to get high returns, it is better for them to buy ( A) preferred stock. ( B) common stock. ( C) noncumulative stock. ( D) cumulative stock. 四、 PART FOUR 18 Read the article below about cheap frills in flying. Choose th

34、e best word to fill each gap from A, B, C or D. For each question (19-33), mark one letter (A, B, C or D) on your Answer Sheet. There is an example at the beginning, (0). When is a low-cost airline not a no-frills airline? When it adds frills, business travellers who have 0 enthusiastically to value

35、-for-money air (19) are now being offered packages more commonly associated with mainstream airlines. To date, the attraction of no-frills airlines has been based on price; forget the more convenient departure points, creature comforts or ease of (20) . Easyjet, Ryanair and Debonair have all undercu

36、t leading carriers by as (21) as 70 per cent on high volume routes. However, in the wake of increased competition and aggressive price-cutting from mainstream airlines such as KLM UK, three no-frills airlines are changing tack. Virgin Express is (22) legroom and is contemplating the (23) of a freque

37、nt-flyer programme) Go, owned by British Airways, is wooing the business traveller; and Debonair is introducing a business class section next week. Debonair, based at Luton Airport, north of London, was launched just over two years ago and went into (24) for the first time this summer. Even when it

38、started, it (25) itself slightly apart from its low-cost competitors by offering more seat comfort, a drink in-flight and a (26) frequent-flyer scheme. Debonairs business class, called ABC, will give (27) more privacy during the flight, a fully-refundable, flexible ticket, a free bar, a snack and a

39、dedicated check in desk. Yet the (28) will remain as much as 40 per cent below the average business class ticket price. Other low-cost airlines, however, are standing (29) . Even so, Easyjet, which markets itself on lowest price, no catering and direct sell, has now introduced a 10 (30) to allow its

40、 passengers to (31) from one Easyjet flight to another. This is effectively a concession to the business traveller, who needs more flexibility. Attempts by Virgin Express, Go and Debonair to move upmarket are being (32) by some as the beginning of a consolidation in the sector. With so much (33) on

41、price, it seems likely that some players in the low-cost airline business will fail to survive. ( A) journey ( B) travel ( C) tour ( D) trip ( A) scheduling ( B) planning ( C) setting ( D) traveling ( A) many ( B) few ( C) more ( D) much ( A) decreasing ( B) increasing ( C) extending ( D) diminishin

In

44、 most of the lines (34-45) there is one extra word. It is either grammatically incorrect or does not fit in with the meaning of the text. Some lines, however, are correct. If a line is correct, write CORRECT on your Answer Sheet. If there is an extra word in the line, write the extra word in CAPITAL

45、 LETTERS on your Answer Sheet. The exercise begins with two examples, (0) and (00). Denying Claims 0 Customers occasionally want something they are not entitled to or that you 00 cant grant. They may misunderstand their warranties or make unreasonable 34 demands. Because these customers are often un

46、happy with a product or 35 service, they are emotionally involved in. Letters that say no to emotionally 36 involved receivers will probably be your much most difficult communication 37 task. As if publisher Malcolm Forbes has pointed out, “To be agreeable while 38 be disagreeing thats an art.“ Fort

47、unately, the reasons-before-refusal plan 38 enables you to be empathic and artful in handling with bad news. Obviously, in 40 denial letters you will need to adopt the proper tone. Dont blame on customers 41 or suggest that the customer does not read or understand what the contract or 42 relative po

48、licies, even if they are at fault. Avoid use “you“ statements that 43 sound preachy. Instead, the safest path is to use neutral and objective 44 language to explain that why the claim must be refused. Sometimes you may 45 hope consider offering resale information to rebuild the customers confidence

49、in your products or organization.
