国家开放大学电大《商务英语4》试题及答案一

uanli一、选择填空题（每题10分，共5题） —Okay, what is the decision?

—As you know, we have been a privately held, family-owned company for over 120 years,_____________. 选择一项：

A. and I think it definitely has a bright future

B. but it may be time to consider some major changes C. but the company faces tough competition

解析：本题考核“提出建议”的交际用语。第一说话人询问对方做出怎样的决定，回答者答语的前半句话表明公司的状况，答语的后半句话给出的应是具体的决定，即回答者的建议，只有选项B是针对第一说话人的问题进行回答，“但是可能是该考虑一些重大变化的时候了”，所以答案是B。

正确答案是：but it may be time to consider some major changes —But then we'll have to accept a Board of Directors chosen by our stockholders. Wouldn't that limit us in many ways?

—Certainly. But if you consider the massive capital investment that we'll receive, you'll understand that this could take our company —————— . 选择一项：

A. from being a big firm to being one of the medium-tier players B. from being a medium-tier firm to being one of the big players C. from being a medium-tier firm to being one of the small players

解析：本题考核“说服某人”的交际用语。第二说话人给予第一说话人肯定答复后，解释和说明限制之外的益处，用“但如果你认为我们会收到巨大的资本投资,你会明白这可能会把我们公司从中等公司变成大公司之一”来说服对方；选项A和C与假设矛盾，所以答案是B。

正确答案是：from being a medium-tier firm to being one of the big players

His ideas are linked to the theory________markets are efficient, which means market actors taking all available information to create the correct price for things at any given time. 选择一项： A. which B. who C. that

译文：他的思想与市场有效理论相关，这个理论意味着市场参与者在任何给定的时间内利用所有可用信息来确定合适的价格。

解析：本题考核同位语从句的用法。同位语从句与定语从句容易混淆，区别在于：从语义角度看，同位语从句与先行词之间存在的是同位或等同的关系，而定语从句与先行词之间存在的是所属关系，表示“……的”，起修饰限定作用。从先行词的词性来看，同位语从句的先行词大都为抽象名词，而定语从句的先行词可以是名词，也可以是代词。从语法角度来看，引导同位语从句的that是连词，只起连接作用，在从句中不充当任何成分；而引导定语从句的that是关系代词，它除了起引导从句的作用之外，还要在从句中充当句子成分，主要是做主语或宾

语。句中theory是名词，意为“理论”，其后面的句子已经有了主语、系动词和表语，只是对theory具体内容进行说明，因此，修饰theory的是同位语从句, 所以答案是C。 正确答案是：that

Well，the day we offer stock for sale is the day we will see how much______there is in our company. 选择一项： A. fact B. fate C. faith

译文：对了，我们股票出售那天，就是我们见证对公司信念之日。

解析：fact意为“事实”，是可数名词；fate意为“命运”；faith意为“信念，信仰”；根据句意，所以答案是C。 正确答案是：faith

The same is true ______individual proprietorships. 选择一项： A. of B. to C. at

译文：同样适用于独资企业。

解析：be true of是固定搭配，意为“对……适用，符合于”；be true to意为“忠实于, 信守”；at不与true搭配使用。根据句意，所以答案是A。
