2016年11月商務(wù)英語(yǔ)考試高級(jí)精選練習(xí)
商務(wù)英語(yǔ)是以適應(yīng)職場(chǎng)生活的語(yǔ)言要求為目的，內(nèi)容涉及到商務(wù)活動(dòng)的方方面面。不只是簡(jiǎn)單地對(duì)學(xué)員的英文水平、能力的提高，它更多地是向?qū)W員傳授一種西方的企業(yè)管理理念、工作心理，甚至是如何和外國(guó)人打交道，如何和他們合作、工作的方式方法，以及他們的生活習(xí)慣等。以下是yjbys網(wǎng)小編整理的關(guān)于商務(wù)英語(yǔ)考試高級(jí)精選練習(xí)，供大家練習(xí)。
B 1 It would be advisable for Flacks to consult customers before developing a new product.
D 2 Producing goods for specialist markets might increase Flacks' profits.
C 3 Flacks may need to change the function of one of its facilities.
A 4 Flacks should utilise its current expertise to enter a different market.
B 5 Flacks may need to consider closing its current production facility.
C 6 Flacks should develop the connections it has established with leading retailers.
A 7 Expanding the product range would not be a problem for the workforce.
Flacks is a UK-based company that produces fashion accessories for women. How can it continue
to grow its business?
A Susan Falmer
Faced with a shrinking market, cheap imports and competitive pricing, Flacks will have to work
hard to increase its margins. They need to move into a more promising market, one where demand
is growing and where the company can exploit existing skills and contacts. They could think about
brand extension - this would not be a giant leap and the sales force would take it in its stride. Also,
they wouldn't need to re-equip their factory and could use non-UK sourcing if facilities here are in
short supply.
B Mesut Guzel
They have the fundamentals of a survival strategy in a market where outsourced manufacture and
brand differentiation hold the key to success. I think they should initially locate some of their
production in another country, where manufacturing quality tends to be better and it is easier to
meet changing customer demands. But they should also regularly monitor production in Britain
and think about outsourcing all this work abroad at some point if they need it done faster. The
company should continue to work on innovative products, and thorough market research will help
to ensure any new ideas are well received.
C Gary Wilmot
In order to beat their rivals in a highly competitive market, Flacks should ensure their products are
attractive and build on their relationships with the big stores rather than trying to go it alone and
market directly. They should also consider refocusing production by using their UK factory for
high-specification products. They could eventually build more production overseas in a cycle of
continuous development.
D Michal Kaminski
The demand for fashion accessories is relatively flat and the company should consider exploiting
niche markets to improve its margins. But even within these, Flacks must distinguish its goods
from those of its rivals in terms of quality, performance and design. Innovative sales, marketing
and PR are vital to exploit these niche products. One competitive advantage that Flacks does have
is production times. Many retail chains now have two-tier supply chains and Flacks could focus on
top-up orders. They might also investigate other sales channels such as mail order.
這篇文章是關(guān)于一個(gè)女性時(shí)尚飾品公司——Flacks的發(fā)展戰(zhàn)略問(wèn)題，四個(gè)專(zhuān)家給出了自
己的建議。這套題目的答案稍微有些隱晦。
第一題，說(shuō)在開(kāi)發(fā)新產(chǎn)品前咨詢(xún)客戶(hù)的意見(jiàn)對(duì)于Flacks來(lái)講是很明智的。答案是B段
的最后一句：thorough market research will help to ensure any new ideas are well received.徹底
的市場(chǎng)調(diào)查能夠確保新的思想很好的被接受。Market research，市場(chǎng)調(diào)查，在很大程度上就
是咨詢(xún)客戶(hù)的意見(jiàn)(consult customers)，any new ideas可以對(duì)應(yīng)于developing a new product,
能夠well received，那么對(duì)于公司來(lái)講當(dāng)然就是advisable了。選B。
第二題，說(shuō)為專(zhuān)業(yè)市場(chǎng)生產(chǎn)產(chǎn)品可以增加利潤(rùn)。答案是D段的這么一句：the company
should consider exploiting niche markets to improve its margins這題關(guān)鍵是要理解一個(gè)市場(chǎng)的
含義：niche market�？从⒂⒔忉�?zhuān)篴 small area of trade within the economy, often involving
specialized products。improve its margins也就是increase profits，選D。
第三題，說(shuō)Flacks可能需要改變它的一個(gè)設(shè)備的功能。這里答案不是太明顯，是C段
的這么一句：They should also consider refocusing production by using their UK factory for
high-specification products。他們也需要考慮通過(guò)利用英國(guó)工廠(chǎng)生產(chǎn)高規(guī)格產(chǎn)品來(lái)調(diào)整生產(chǎn)焦
點(diǎn)。也就是說(shuō)，英國(guó)工廠(chǎng)原來(lái)不是生產(chǎn)高規(guī)格產(chǎn)品的，即題目說(shuō)的改變它的一個(gè)設(shè)備的功能。
第四題，說(shuō)Flacks可以利用現(xiàn)有的技能來(lái)進(jìn)入一個(gè)新的市場(chǎng)。答案是A段的這么一句：
They need to move into a more promising market, one where demand is growing and where the
company can exploit existing skills and contacts。他們需要進(jìn)入一個(gè)更有發(fā)展前景的市場(chǎng)，一
個(gè)需求增長(zhǎng)并且公司可以利用現(xiàn)有技能和合同的市場(chǎng)。exploit existing skills也就是utilise its
current expertise。
第五題，說(shuō)Flacks可以考慮關(guān)閉現(xiàn)有的生產(chǎn)設(shè)備。這題也有些隱晦，答案是這么一句：
think about outsourcing all this work abroad。關(guān)鍵就在于outsource這個(gè)詞的意思：turn to
outside suppliers or manufacturers外購(gòu)。既然是要考慮outsource——turn to outside
manufactures，那么也就是可以考慮關(guān)閉自己的生產(chǎn)設(shè)備了。選B。
第六題，說(shuō)Flacks應(yīng)該考慮發(fā)展同領(lǐng)先的連鎖商已經(jīng)建立起來(lái)的關(guān)系。答案在C段：
build on their relationships with the big stores發(fā)展他們同大商店的關(guān)系。
第七題，說(shuō)擴(kuò)展產(chǎn)品范圍對(duì)勞動(dòng)力來(lái)講不是問(wèn)題。答案在A段：They could think about
brand extension - this would not be a giant leap and the sales force would take it in its stride.他們
可以考慮品牌擴(kuò)張——這不是一個(gè)巨大的跳躍，在銷(xiāo)售力量的步調(diào)范圍之內(nèi)。言下之意，不是問(wèn)題。選A。
