　　Book Review of Anne Narazaki’s

　　New Century, New Business

　　Reviewed by John Gilliam

　　Anne Narazaki’s recent book, New Century, New Business, seeks to examine the new technologies that are critical for global business and how they affect today’s corporate transactions. Ms. Narazaki argues that while economic transactions of one kind or another have taken place for thousands of years, the impact of changing technology on business has become obvious only recently. In fact, as new technologies have grown more prevalent, Ms. Narazaki observes, international businesses have increased in size and number. At the same time, the time required to conduct each business transaction has decreased.

　　Mr. Narazaki illustrates her observations with detailed examples of recent business transactions. Citing the merger of Poynter Technologies and Carce Company, which created the largest financial services company in the world, Ms. Narazaki explains the effect technology has on the valuation of a company, on communication between the managements of different companies, and on stock and funds trading.

　　Those of us who take an interest in the interaction between business and technology will find Ms. Narazaki’s ideas persuasive. The view that business cannot survive without keeping up with new technology has become today’s corporate reality.

From: Lily Oguro <loguro@rotaro.com>

Dear Anne, I know we haven’t spoken since our days working together at the Rosence Company in Sydney, but I’m writing to congratulate you on the publication of your first book! I happened to read the Daily Inquirer on October 8 and was pleased and surprised to come across John Gilliam’s article. You must be thrilled at getting such a great review. It seems like ages ago we worked together in Sydney. Do you remember our office? No computers, no internet, and three phones for twenty employees. Times and businesses certainly have changed. Judging by what I have read in your book so far, I thoroughly agree with your insightful and engaging assessment of technology and business. Are you still living in London? I’ll be making a business trip there next month. (I’m with Rotaro incorporated now). And it would be nice to see you. In any event, I am really looking forward to finishing your book. Sincerely yours, Lily Oguro

Business Technologies Seminar

This message is to finalize the organizational details for the technical support team for next Monday’s Business Technologies Seminar. Attached you will find the schedule with the names of technical assigned to the various conference rooms. Each session runs for two hours and made up of four 30-minute presentations. Presenters have been asked to designate a timekeeper to ensure that they do not exceed their time limits. Note that there is a break between each session, which should allow you sufficient time to prepare for the next speaker. Your job is to set up microphones adjust lighting, and address any other needs of the speakers. Speakers will not be videotaped, but several have to be recorded, so please be sure the recording equipment is in place and functioning properly. Also, room 106 does not have a computer on-site, but the presentation in the third session will require one. Fortunately, this is not a big problem because neither of the laptop computers in rooms 104 and 108 will be in use at that time. The technician assigned to room 106 for that session must remember to bring the laptop from one of those other rooms to room 106 and set it up. If you have any questions, feel free to contract me. Henna Sanchez

　　答案：

　　1. 【答案】D. 解析：“critical”一詞出現(xiàn)在“……examine the new technologies that are critical for global business……”這句話中，結(jié)合整句加以理解，是說：新的科技技術(shù)對全球商業(yè)的重要性。所以，該題的正確答案應(yīng)為D。

　　2. 【答案】D. 解析：由原文第二段相關(guān)內(nèi)容：“……Ms. Narazaki explains the effect technology has on the valuation of a company, on communication……可以得出正確答案。A、B、C在原文中均未提到。

　　3. 【答案】B. 解析：由原文的最后一段：……Ms. Narazaki’s ideas persuasive. The view that business cannot survive without keeping up with new technology has become today’s corporate reality.可以推斷出，John Gilliam 對該Reviews中提及的觀點(diǎn)是表示贊同的。所以本題的正確答案為B。

　　4. 【答案】B. 解析：郵件的第一段中：……but I’m writing to congratulate you on the publication of your first book.這句話就可以得出此題答案。

　　5. 【答案】A. 解析：……to congratulate you on the publication of your first book. 就表明：New Century, New Business這本書是Anne Narazaki的第一本書。B、D兩項(xiàng)不能從原文中得到，C選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤，因?yàn)镴ohn Gilliam只是為這本書寫了Reviews。所以本題答案應(yīng)為A。

　　6. 【答案】C. 解析：郵件的第一段首句：This message is to finalize the organizational details for……就表明，這份郵件是為了完善有關(guān)于即將舉行的研討會(huì)的相關(guān)事宜而提出的相關(guān)要求和指導(dǎo)意見。所以，本題的正確答案應(yīng)為C。

　　7. 【答案】A. 解析：結(jié)合句意分析，A選項(xiàng)的意思與“Address”一詞在該句中的意思最貼近，其它選項(xiàng)都不能。

　　8. 【答案】B. 解析：由原文中第三段的第二句：Speakers will not be videotaped可以得出正確答案。

　　9. 【答案】B. 解析：由最后一段：room 106 does not have a computer on-site, but the presentation in the third session will require one……可以得出正確答案，A、C、D三個(gè)選項(xiàng)在原文中均未提及。

　　10. 【答案】A. 解析：首先需要明確的是，“移動(dòng)手提電腦”的部分是出現(xiàn)在third session，再由Technical Support for Presentation Sessions 部分可以得知，負(fù)責(zé)third session的技術(shù)人員是Adam Naraozny，所以，本題的正確答案是A。
