japanese interests span the globe， few foreign firms have successfully penetrated japan‘s home turf. korea， too， has a legacy of xenophobia； and the koreans are clearly wary of opening their markets to high-powered western competitors. but they are tentatively doing just that， so far with a momentum unmatched by japan. the aim is to defuse the protectionist pressures that have hobbled u. s. -japanese trade relations and， in time， to enter the ranks of the world’s developed nations. that‘s no small order， but the koreans think it can be filled fairly simply. at bottom， says nam duc woo， chairman of the korea traders association， south korea needs only “some degree of sweet and some degree of technological sophistication” and that’s precisely what has already lifted korea， inc. into contention. 36. what is compared to an order in the given context （2分） 37. 1）what does the writer mean by the word “sweat” （2分） 2）what does “technological sophistication” refer to （2分） 38. can you explain “…lifted korea， inc. into contention” （3分） passage 2 nations with serious debt problems， such as mexico， brazil and argentina， have been compelled to devote almost all their export earnings to debt service， leaving themselves with virtually no surplus to pay for imports. with barter， however， debtor nations can continue to import goods while， in effect， concealing export earnings from creditors. but counter-trade is not the exclusive province of debtor nations. says yoffie， “even countries with strong foreign exchange positions， such as australia， canada and indonesia， are insisting on counter-trade in certain areas. linking imports and exports is a way to exert power over multinational corporations. countries that lack expertise in international marketing try to use counter-trade as leverage to tap the networks of global firms.” 39. what is “debt service” （1分） 40. 1）what does “global firms” refer to （2分） 2）what does the network of a so-called “global firms”

false in the brackets given.（每小题1分，共10分） passage 1 many countries are envious of silicon valley， the world center of the computer， software， and internet industries. silicon valley started in the 1950s with a modest plan by federick terman， a far-sighted dean of stanford‘s engineering school， to create an industrial park on unused stanford land. a few companies accepted the offer， but the area was still sleepy and unimpressive when i first visited it in the early 60s. the region took off in the 1970s with the development of the personal computers by apple computer inc. and others， and it has exploded since then with the creation of the internet and the enormous demand for software. silicon valley now employs more than 1 million people， almost 40% of whom have at least a bachelor‘s degree， and more than a third are foreign-born. they are attracted by the good jobs and by the early access to frontier developments in the high-tech field. whatever got silicon valley going， its advantages in attracting quality labor venture capital multiplied as the region grew. a large pool of engineers， scientists， and software experts are available to both new and old companies. talented individuals flock to the region not only because of generous stock options and decent pay， but also because they know they can find good jobs there if their employers fail. so while job changes are common， unemployment rates are extremely low. innovations and other new developments spread rapidly in silicon valley， in part by employees who change jobs. as alfred marshall， a great british economist of the late 19th century， recognized， when companies in related industries locate near each other， “the mysteries of the trade become no mysteries； but are as it were in the air.”thi
