1、回答1-7題：

A

Plumper

How does the country's economy compare with those of the EU? Some of the concerns surrounding Turkey's application to join the European Union, to be voted on by the EU's Council of Ministers on December 17th, are economic - in particular, the country's relative poverty. Its GDP per head is less than a third of the average for the 15 pre-2(X)4 members of the EU. But it is not far off that of one of the ten new members which joined on May 1 st 2(X)4 (Latvia), and it is much the same as those of two countries, Bulgaria and Romania, which this week concluded accession talks with the EU that could make them full members on January 1st 2007.

B

Furthermore, the country's recent economic progress has been, according to Donald Johnston, the secretary-general of the OECD, stunning. GDP in the second quarter of the year was 13. 4% higher than a year earlier, a rate of growth that no EU country comes close to matching. Turkey's inflation rate has just fallen into single figures for the first time since 1972, and this week the country reached agreement with the IMF on a new three-year, $10 billion economic programme that will, according to the IMF's managing director, Rodrigo Rato, help Turkey reduce inflation toward European levels, and enhance the economy's resilience.

C

Resilience has not historically been the country's economic strong point. As recently as 2001, GDP fell by over 7%. It fell by more than 5% in 1994 and by just under 5% in 1999. Indeed, throughout the 1990s growth oscillated like an electrocardiogram recording a violent heart attack. This irregularity has been one of the main reasons (along with red tape and corruption) why the country has failed dismally to attract much-needed foreign direct investment. Its stock of such investment (as a percentage of GDP) is lower now than it was in the 1980s, and annual inflows have scarcely ever reached $1 billion (whereas Ireland attracted over $25 billion in 2003, as did Brazil in every year from 1998 to 2000).

D

One deterrent to foreign investors is due to disappear on January 1st 2005. On that day, Turkey will virtually take away the right of every one of its citizens to call themselves a millionaire. Six noughts will be removed from the face value of the lira; one unit of the local currency will henceforth be worth what 1 m are nowi. e. , about 0. 53 ($ 0.70). Goods will have to be priced at both the new and old lira for the whole of the year, but foreign bankers and investors can begin to look forward to a time in Turkey when they will no longer have to juggle mentally with indeterminate strings of zeros.

Turkey’s economy grows faster than any EU member now.

2、Foreign investors will enjoy a good economic prospect in Turkey.

3、Resilience is not always one advantage of Turkey.

4、Inflation rate in Turkey used to be very high.

5、The economy of Turkey used to be unsteady in the past.

6、There are three members is in all that the EU could identify their position of full members at that time.

7、Steady GDP growth will help Turkey attract more foreign direct investments.

You will hear three telephone conversations or messages.

Debunking Negotiation Myths

Before developing a more effective negotiation strategy, we need to dispel several faulty assumptions and myths about negotiation. These myths hamper people's ability to learn effective negotiation skills and in some cases reinforce poor negotiation skills.

A pervasive belief is that good negotiation skills are something that people are born with, not something that can be readily learned. This is false because most excellent negotiators are self- made. In fact, there are very few naturally gifted negotiators. We tend to hear their stories, but we must remember that their stories are selective, meaning that it is always possible for someone to have a lucky day or a fortunate experience. This myth is often perpetuated by the tendency of people to judge negotiation skills by their cardealership experience. Whereas purchasing a car is certainly an important and common type of negotiation, it is not the best context by which your negotiation skills can be judged. The most important negotiations are those that we engage in every day with our colleagues, supervisors, coworkers and business associates. These relationships provide a much better index of one's effectiveness in negotiation. In short, effective negotiation requires practice and feedback. The problem is that most of us do not get an opportunity to develop effective negotiation skills in a disciplined fashion, rather, most of us learn by doing. As the second myth reveals, experience is helpful, but not sufficient.

We have all met that person at the cocktail party or on the airplane who boasts about his or her great negotiation feats and how he or she learned on the job. It is only partly true that experience can improve negotiation skills; in fact, native erience is largelv ineffective in improving negotiation skills. There are three strikes against natural experience as an effective teacher. First, if a person does not know how well he or she has performed in the negotiation, it is nearly impossible to improve performance. For example, can you imagine trying to learn mathematics without ever doing homework or taking tests? The second problem is that our memories tend to be selective, meaning that people tend to remember their successes and forget their failures or shortcomings. This is, of course, comforting to our ego, but it does not improve our ability to negotiate. Finally, experience improves our confidence, but not necessarily our accuracy.People with more experience grow more and more confident, but the accuracy of their judgment and the' effectiveness of their behaviour do not increase in a commensurate fashion.

Overconfidence can be dangerous because it may lead people to take unwise risks.

The third pervasive myth is that effective negotiation necessitates taking risks and gambles. In negotiation, this may mean saying things like "this is my final offer" or "take it or leave it" or using threats and bluffs. This is what we call a "tough" style of negotiation, Although these negotiators are rarely effective, we tend to be impressed by the tough negotiator.

An interesting exercise is to ask mangers and anyone else who negotiates to describe their approach to negotiating. Many seasoned negotiators believe that their negotiation style involves a lot of "gut feeling", intuition, and "in-the-moment" responses. We believe that this type of intuition does not serve people well. Effective negotiation involves deliberate thought and preparation, and it is quite systematic.

According to the article，a person is likely to

A.succeed in negotiation if he is lucky that day.

B.do well if he has studied how to negotiate.

C.have at Ieast one successful negotiation.

D.be a better negotiator if he has inborn talents.

C.good connections with business partners

D.daily interaction with all kinds of people

B.abundant experience.

C.more practicing.

42、What does the writer think of experience?

A.More experienced people may make unreasonable decisions.

B.Without feedback，it is very difficult to learn from experience.

C.Failures in fact help improve performance.

D.Experience blurs people’s accuracy.

43、The writer suggests that

A.effective negotiations do not necessarily involve risks.

B.threats are sometimes impressive and effective.

C.people seem to prefer tough styles of negotiation。

D.risks are caused by negotiator’S overconfidence。
