对一个雄心勃勃的公司来说,仅仅成为一个家喻户晓的品牌是不够的。摩托罗拉希望能在即将来到的宽带时代为你打造整个家庭娱乐网,并成为像英特尔和微软一样的重要企业。∥

Both Asian and European countries face economic and social problems , which should be tackled by an overall cooperation in enhancing basic scientific research, industrializing technological findings and protecting the environment. The Chinese government values development of science and technology and its exchanges with peoples from countries all over the world. Up to now, China has joined more than 800 international organizations.

For an ambitious business such as Motorola, it is just not enough to become a household name. Our company wants to shape your entire home entertainment network in the coming age of broadband, and as a result become just as important as other well-known business like Intel and Microsoft.∥

Part B
Directions: In this part of the test, you will hear 2 passages in Chinese.(略) Passage 1:
亚洲和欧洲是人类文明的重要摇篮,拥有悠久的科学合作的历史。两大洲在古时候就沿着“丝绸之路”开展技术交流为人民谋利。随着现代技术的迅猛发展,全球科学、贸易和经济交流已成为国际关系的关键。∥

B卷
参考答案: Part A Passage 1:
团队形式在美国大机构中发挥着越来越重的作用,这要求重新高度重视团队中各成员之间的相互关系。事实上,对协同工作的重视早已成为最为看重的一种管理能力。《财富》500强中约有半数的公司都表明它们使用了能自我管理的团队,并期望在未来扩大这种做法。∥
营造一个默契配合的团队需要高超的公共关系技巧,有些人因缺乏这方面的知识而从未跳出那种独往独来、以我为中心的思维模式。而工作效率高的成功人士往往已由孩童式的依赖阶段发展到独立阶段,然后再进入互相依赖阶段,即进入一个双赢阶段,一个具有“我们”思维模式的阶段。
Passage 2:

目前,90%的英特网主机设在英语国家。因此,一个不足为奇的事实是大部分网上交流和网址都采用英语,而那些在非英语国家生活、在正常情况下使用非英语工作的人在网络世界里不得不用英语与其他人进行交流。
Part B Passage 1:
China carries out an overall opening policy towards the outside world; it opens towards both capitalist and socialist countries, both developed and developing countries. China's economic cooperation with developed countries has achieved great progress in such areas as importing technology and equipment, attracting foreign capital and expanding foreign trade.∥ China's economic and technological cooperation with developing countries has also opened up new vistas. While continuing to provide assistance to some countries, China carried out economic cooperation of mutual benefit in the forms of joint-ventures, technological services, and compensation trade, making up each other's deficiencies and helping supply each other's needs.
Passage 2:
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Please allow me, on behalf of Shanghai Municipal Government, to extend our sincere welcome to Mr. Smith. China and the United States are two big countries. Ever since the establishment of diplomatic relations, although there have been some diversities between the two governments, they still take the interests of the two peoples into full consideration and make wise decisions.∥
Last year, the American government decided to extend the permanent most favorable nation treatment to China. I think it is wise to separate the human rights issue from MFN status. This decision is helpful to the development of economy and foreign trade of both sides. It provides more job opportunities for the two peoples.
口译题录音文字稿: Part A
Directions: In this part of the test, you will hear 2 passages in English.(略) Passage 1:
The work team system plays an increasingly important role in large U.S. organizations. It places a new premium on the relationship of team members. In fact, emphasis on teamwork has long become the most frequently valued managerial competence. About half the Fortune 500 companies say they are using self-managed work teams and expect to expand their use in coming years. ∥
Generating a team of high compatibility requires excellent public relation expertise. Some people never get out of the individual \-thinking\mode because they have limited expertise with the interpersonal skills required for team-building. But the highly-effective people of success are those who move from child-like dependence to independence, and then onto interdependence, or win-win, \
Passage 2:
I have been asked on many occasions what impact the Internet will have on the global use of English. As everybody present here today knows, the Internet epitomizes the information society, allowing the transfer of services, expertise and intellectual capital across the world cheaply, rapidly and apparently without pollution or environmental damage.∥
At present, 90% of Internet hosts are based in English-speaking countries. It is not surprising, therefore, that the majority of traffic and the majority of Web sites are based in English and that those users based in other countries, who normally work in other languages, find they have to communicate with others in the cyberspace community through the medium of English.
Part B
Directions: In this part of the test, you will hear 2 passages in Chinese. (略) Passage 1:
中国实行全面的对外开放的政策,中国不仅对社会主义国家开放,也对资本主义国家开放,不仅对发展中国家开放,也对发达国家开放。中国与发达国家的经济合作,在进口技术设备、吸引外资和扩大对外贸易等方面取得了很大的进展。∥
中国与发展中国家的经济技术合作也开辟了新的广阔的前景。在继续向一些国家提供援助的同时,中国通过合资经营、技术服务和补偿贸易等形式开展互惠互利的经济合作,取长补短,互通有无。
Passage 2:
女士们,先生们,晚上好。首先请允许我代表上海市政府对史密斯先后的来访表示热烈的欢迎。中美两国都是大国。自建以来,虽然两国政府在某些问题上曾有过分歧,但是双方能充分考虑到两国人民的利益并作出了明智的决定。∥
去年,美国政府已决定给中国永久性的最惠国待遇,把人权问题和最惠国待遇区分开来,我认为这是非常明智的。这个决定有助于促进两国经济贸易的发展,为两国人民创造更多的就业机会提供了良好的条件。
