Passage 1I'm very pleased to have the opportunity to visit your company. Just before I left my country, I learned from a newspaper that China's foreign trade has developed remarkably and exports have increased by a big margin this year. Now china has joined the WTO, I'm sure that you have bright prospects. I'm here to discuss with you the possibility of placing your products in our market.Thank you. I think you'll stand a chance of marketing our goods profitably there. As a matter of fact, the export of our products last year reached a record high and we are trying hard to further improve the quality and design to suint the international market. I'm sure you have seen the exhibits in the showroom. What is it in particular you are interested in?Yes, I have. I'm interested in your garments and embroidered tablecloths. We had an opportunity last evening to review your well-illustrated catalogues. I've seen the exhibits and studied your catalogues. I think some of your items will find a ready market in our country. Here's a list of requirements. I'd like to have your lowest quotations.Thank you for your inquiry. But could you give us a rough idea of the quantity you require so that we can work out the offer? You know, the price varies according to the quantity.OK, I'll do that. Could you give me an indication of the price?Here's the price list.Our prices compare very favorably with those offered by other suppliers. You'll see that from the price list. All the prices are subject to our final confirmation, naturally.Do you quote CIF or FOB?All our prices in the list are on a FOB basis.To tell you the truth, we are greatly surprised at your price. We had expected much lower prices.This year's prices are higher than last year's, but our prices are still very competitive. I don't think you stand a chance of getting better price elsewhere.I'm afraid I can't agree with you there. I can show you other quotations that are lower than yours.When you compare the prices, you must take everything into consideration. Our products are of high quality, while the quotations you get from other sources are for goods of ordinary quality.I agree with you on this point. I grant that yours are of better quality. But still we don't think we can succeed in persuading our clients to buy at such high prices.If I were you, I wouldn't worry about that. Taking everything into consideration, I can assure you that the prices we offer are very favorable. I don't think you'll have any difficulty in pushing sales.Well, maybe... But it really depends on the price. Is there any commission included in your prices?As a rule, we don't allow any commission. But if the order is a sizable one, we'll consider it.You see, I do business on a commission basis. A commission on your prices would make it easier for me to promote sales. Even 1 to 2 percent would help.We'll discuss this when you place your order with us.有机会拜访贵公司,我深感荣幸。
商务英语综合教程1课文翻译课文一美国来鸿:地铁札记沙希·塔鲁尔张雨晨邵凌译旅美期间,我生活中最大的惊喜之一莫过于纽约地铁了。
实际上,我已经开始逐渐享受它了。
1989年当我第一次搬来纽约时,好心的朋友们提醒我要远离这早已八旬高龄的地铁——不论是在当地居民还是在过往游客中,它都臭名昭著,被公认为是号称“不睡城”的最堵心、最危险的交通工具。
然而,它也是最快速且最经济的交通工具。
怀揣着这个难题,我开始了自己的“纽约客”生涯——自从那时起,我便喜忧参半。
地铁让我们又爱又恨:列车时刻表不可信赖;地铁要么来就来了,要么根本不见踪影;发生故障更是常有的事儿,以至于因地铁被困在隧道里,曾有孕妇不得不在车上生产。
员工数量不多,且其发布的通知常常令人不知所云。
基础设施古老陈旧、摇摇欲坠。
爆裂的管道时不时造成水漫车站,使得交通瘫痪。
城市流浪者们住在站台上,睡在车站长椅上(或地铁车厢里),增加了乘客的不安全感。
每几个月,报纸上就有类似的恐怖事件报道——又有一位无辜者被随意推到了迎面而来的列车车轮下。
抢劫、强奸和谋杀案件虽不常见,但也时有发生。
不仅如此,脏乱的车厢,涂鸦满布的车站,夏天炼狱般的高温和冬天极地般的严寒,可以控诉的实在是挺多。
《华盛顿邮报》的一位撰稿人称它为“古老陈旧、过时低效且近乎不中用的混合体”。
他还是笔下留情的。
那么,为什么纽约居民们仍然对地铁如此依赖呢?其中一个是经济原因:不论多远,乘客只需花1.5美金就能坐地铁到达纽约城的任何地方。
相比之下,乘坐计程车从纽约联合国总部到位于曼哈顿岛另一边的哥伦比亚大学,则需要花费12美金。
而若是去纽约的所谓外区,如皇后区、布鲁克林区或布朗克斯区——任何需要从曼哈顿岛过桥而至的地方——则需支付多达三倍的价钱。
除此之外,地铁也很快速。
只要25分钟,就能从曼哈顿市中心到达皇后区的法拉盛公园——这里是美网公开赛的举办地;开车的话就需要花费一小时,到达后还需找停车位。

《商务英语阅读》第二版Chapter1-Why-China-Works-(网上私人独家翻译).Why China WorksA look at bright spots in the recession begins with Beijing, where state control is looking smart.经济衰退中的一线光明开始于国家宏观调控看起来明智的北京。
The construction site of the China Pavilion, host to the World Expo Shanghai 2010By Rana Foroohar | NEWSWEEKPublished Jan 10, 2009From the magazine issue dated Jan 19, 2009China is the only major economy that is likely to show significant growth this year, because it is the only one that routinely breaks every rule in the economic textbook. In fact, the main reason China is not slowing as fast as the other big five economies is its capacity for macro-control.中国是今年唯一一个可能取得亮丽增长的主要经济体,因为它是世界上唯一一个惯常打破经济教科书每一个原则的国家。
事实上,中国不像其他五大经济体那样发展缓慢的主要原因是,它的宏观调控能力。
Why does China's market economic system work? Now that the United States and Europe are moving toward macro-economic control—by nationalizing the banking and car industries, and imposing heavy new regulation on the financial industry—the question has a new urgency.China looks like the one best positioned to navigate what may be the worst global downturn in seven decades.为什么中国市场经济体系奏效?目前,欧美等国正通过银行及汽车业国有化及强制对金融业的管理,走向宏观调控,但问题更加紧迫。
