[01:01.42]Listen to the tape and interpret the following passage from English into Chinese:;
[01:11.16]Ladies and gentlemen, We're aware of an emergence of a new;
[01:16.84]and exciting mode of information economy driven by networked technology.;
[01:22.93]What I want to say is that the computer Internet;
[01:27.06]is transforming business operation patterns and contributing to;
[01:31.45]what is called the new information economy.;
[01:34.97]An immediate consequence of this profound change;
[01:38.56]is the simplification of business transaction.;
[01:42.68]Take,for example,the way that I recently bought my car.;
[01:47.62]First I went to an Internet site listing cars,their features and their prices,;
[01:54.93]both wholesale and retail.I did all my research.;
[02:00.41]And then I went to an auto dealership and asked for this particular price.;
[02:07.11]The transaction lasted less than 30 minutes. No hassle.Easy.Simple. I was informed.;
[02:17.39]I went in. I was an informed buyer.It's not that none of these things is happening.;
[02:25.57]It's the importance of these things compared to;
[02:29.24]what we have been used to for the last 200 years.;
[02:33.71]Thanks to technology something very important is happening to the US economy.;
[02:40.13]Indeed, something new and different is happening around us.;
[02:45.41]We are able to grow faster without triggering inflation;
[02:49.71]than we thought possible. Of course, there's the down side.;
[02:54.10]The new economy does not mean we will never have another recession;
[02:58.88]or even a deflationary spiral. It does not mean inflation is dead.;
[03:04.82]It does not mean stock prices will stay at their lofty levels;
[03:09.21]or that there will never be another bear market.;
[03:12.46]Nobody is promising you a rose garden. I anticipate dislocation,;
[03:18.62]volatility and uncertainty accompanying the emergence;
[03:23.57]of the new information economy. But because of what I view as higher productivity,;
[03:30.07]I see the possibility of sustained economic growth without the threat of inflation,;
[03:36.00]more jobs and higher wages.The emergence of electronic business has created enormous;
[03:44.34]and exciting challenges for business managers.;
[03:47.67]Internet commerce immediately opens global and more efficient markets.;
[03:53.71]I woutd challenge many people to tell me;
[03:56.90]where it has not brought about greater efficiency in markets.;
[04:01.40]We as consumers have benefited from that.;
[04:05.19]Of course, there are companies that have been hurt by that,;
[04:08.99]which is the other side of the story.;
[04:11.41]In any case, the Internet will transform the way companies do business.;
[04:16.99]And those companies that do not address that issue will not be the market winners.;

[09:38.61]Passage 2 English-Chinese Interpretation Text Interpreting;
[09:51.07]Listen to the tape and interpret the following passage from English into Chinese:;
[10:00.47]Mr. President, ladies and gentlemen,;
[10:04.84]Good afternoon, and thank you for inviting me;
[10:08.54]to the "International Conference on Leadership.";
[10:11.51]I feel privileged to have been asked to be with the people of Tsinghua University;
[10:17.59]and address the issue of "The Importance of Working Together".;
[10:22.64]It is always a pleasure to be among the best;
[10:26.38]and the brightest in an atmosphere of learning.;
[10:30.36]The university setting is the best incubator;
[10:34.05]that exists for the inception and sharing of ideas.;
[10:39.28]The agenda you've set forth here for the next two-and-a-half days;
[10:45.07]is one that goes to the heart of what is exciting;
[10:48.90]and important to business and industry today.;
[10:53.93]I've been asked to share my thoughts with you today about moving from;
[10:59.72]"me" thinking to "we" thinking.;
[11:03.28]My view is simple: individuals add; team players multiply.;
[11:12.12]Tsinghua undergrads are fortunate in that;
[11:16.18]more and more your university is encouraging teamwork in your case work,;
[11:22.63]stimulating the transition from "me" to "we".;
[11:27.84]At Wilson, we, too,are making great strides in breaking down the psychological;
[11:35.49]and organizational barriers that result from "me" thinking.;
[11:40.45]Even though we have more yet to do,;
[11:44.67]we have been reaping exciting rewards by effectively using work teams;
[11:50.42]to reengineer processes;
[11:52.85]to gain improvements in costs, quality andresponse times.;
[11:58.29]More than five years ago,we began gathering the leaders of all Wilson divisions;
[12:05.00]together monthly for the purpose of integrating separate efforts of authority,;
[12:10.77]sharing best practices and seeking creative ways;
[12:15.15]to use our resources cross-functionally.;
[12:18.95]Also, we've been using work teams to shorten new product development cycles;;
[12:24.98]to implement demand flow manufacturing to shorten deliver cycles to customers;
[12:31.19]and reduce inventory; and to encourage innovation in all business processes.;
[12:38.63]The cumulative result of these efforts is the healthy;
[12:42.26]and sustained business growth in the last five years.;
[12:47.31]Our success shows in earnings per share;
[12:50.65]that have grown at an average compound annual rate of 24 percent.;
[12:56.23]Our operating margins have increased by more than 65 percent.;
[13:02.11]We have reduced working capital investments by about 56 percent,;
[13:07.77]increased inventory turnover by nearly 43 percent,;
[13:12.62]reduced outstanding receivables by over 15 percent,;
[13:17.21]and saved $ 150 million in purchasing costs;
[13:22.51]via a corporate-wide strategic sourcing initiative.;
[13:26.94]These efforts have persuaded fourteen key analysts, who follow the company,;
[13:33.11]to recommend that investors buy our stock.;
[13:36.85]But, as much as I enjoy talking about Wilson,;
[13:40.63]I'm not here to boast about the successes;
[13:43.63]that were made possible through teamwork.;
[13:46.66]The truth is that while we at Wilson think we are doing unusually well;
[13:52.96]with what we are doing how we are doing it is not unusual in the business;
[13:58.97]and manufacturing industries today.;
[14:02.71]Increasingly, U.S. companies are becoming relationship-focused.;
[14:09.34]We seek to be customer-driven. We want to partner with suppliers.;
[14:16.64]We are moving from a manufacturing economy to a value-added,;
[14:21.75]service-oriented economy. And at the heart of service are relationships:;
[14:29.08]interpersonal relationships, intergroup relationships,;
[14:33.67]and interdepartmental relationships.;
[14:37.84]The ascendance of work teams in large U.S. organizations puts a new premium;
[14:44.10]on the relationship of team members.;
[14:47.20]In fact, emphasis on teamwork;
[14:50.29]has long become the most frequently valued managerial competence;
[14:55.36]in studies of organizations around the world.;
[14:58.88]About half the Fortune 500 companies say they are using self-managed work teams;
[15:05.92]and expect to expand their use in coming years.;
[15:10.35]Teamwork,for many of us,;
[15:13.79]is a big switch from how we're accustomed to functioning.;
[15:18.18]And that's especially true for those of you at the beginning of your careers.;
[15:24.61]Some people never get out of the individual contributor mode;
[15:29.62]because they have limited expertise with the interpersonal skills required;
[15:35.08]for team-building. But the highly-effective people of success;
[15:40.35]are those who move from child-like dependence to independence,;
[15:45.86]and then onto interdependence, or win-win, "we" thinking.;
[15:52.57]Teamwork really builds.If there's no trust and honesty among employees;
[15:59.46]and everyone is maneuvering based on what it might do for their own careers,;
[16:04.57]you're not going to accomplish much.;
[16:07.50]An old Oriental proverb;
[16:10.26]that "people with one mind will remove Mount Tai"is true.;
[16:16.25]Another way is to consider this: individuals add; team players multiply.;
[16:24.86]Of course,as the whole is never the sum of its parts, it may be greater or lesser,;
[16:31.93]depending on how well the individuals work together.;
[16:36.84]A good team leader is one who can create group synergy;
[16:41.22]in order to pursue collective goals.;
[16:45.04]If you're going to be a good boss, make sure that you support people around you;
[16:50.88]and keep the group working well.;
[16:53.63]That's an important lesson I learned from one of my former chief executive officers,;
[16:59.71]who held me accountable for my beliefs—in fact,;
[17:04.28]there were times he held my feet to the fire —;
[17:07.50]but he never held a grudge against me for believing in something different from him.;
[17:13.68]You're never too old to learn something new.;
[17:17.79]There's plenty of research;
[17:19.72]that proves that emotional intelligence skills can be learned, honed,;
[17:24.83]and enjoyed at any stage in life.;
[17:28.31]It's called the "acquisition of wisdom", and it's a lifetime project.;
[17:34.67]Remember this: individuals add; team players multiply.;
[17:41.51]Thank you and good luck.;

[22:19.76]Passage 2 English-Chinese Interpretation;
[22:27.63]Listen to the tape and interpret the following passage from English into Chinese:;
[22:37.14]Mr. Chairman, ladies and gentlemen,;
[22:41.60]It is a privilege to participate in this conference.;
[22:46.26]I have been asked this morning to share a few thoughts;
[22:50.06]on the state of the pharmaceutical industry,;
[22:53.28]and that's a pretty daunting task when you think about it.;
[22:57.93]In an industry that is so fragmented,;
[23:00.97]there is obviously likely to be fragmented opinion;
[23:04.91]on how the industry is doing.;
[23:08.19]So I'm not going to spend that much time today;
[23:12.28]discussing the current state of the industry.;
[23:15.29]Instead, what I'd like to do is focus on how Merck is doing.;
[23:20.67]Specifically, I will describe how Merck is pursuing a growth strategy;
[23:27.06]that is grounded in the belief that innovation is the key to global success.;
[23:34.07]We—leaders in industry academia and government — operate;
[23:40.57]in a dynamic environment that is growing more complex and competitive.;
[23:46.82]And this is particularly true in the pharmaceutical industry,;
[23:51.63]which faces increasing globalization, competition;
[23:56.40]and rapid advances in science and technology.;
[24:00.37]Within this environment, we make decisions;
[24:04.68]that affect not only the men and women who work for us and with us,;
[24:09.56]but also those who rely on our medicines and services worldwide.;
[24:15.50]To succeed, we need a winning strategy that will make us unique and set us apart,;
[24:23.94]and one that will give us a clear competitive advantage.;
[24:28.23]At Merck, we believe that a commitment to innovation is important;
[24:34.46]for global success today. Innovation as a strategy can be high risk.;
[24:41.81]But as a means to grow and compete in today's global economy, innovation offers,;
[24:49.19]I believe, the highest return. Because Merck is a research-based pharmaceutical company;
[24:58.84]it should come as no surprise;
[25:01.44]that innovation plays a central role in our strategy for growth.;
[25:07.12]Our strategy is to discover truly innovative medicines;
[25:13.31]through breakthrough research that are unique-in-class;
[25:17.90]and have proven health outcomes.;
[25:20.79]We focus on medicines for diseases with large patient populations worldwide,;
[25:27.89]taking advantage of new knowledge about pathways of disease,;
[25:33.40]and using that new knowledge to come up with a novel drug.;
[25:38.56]And we look for drugs that are highly potent and highly specific and that are oral;
[25:46.58]and once-a-day — and therefore easy to use.;
[25:51.48]Innovation has been the hallmark of Merck's success in the past, and we know;
[25:57.95]that it will continue to be the driving force behind our success in the future.;
[26:03.63]Speaking more generally, innovation has emerged as a theme for the new century.;
[26:11.09]Innovation is now driving the growth of the whole business;
[26:15.95]and manufacturing industry as companies realize;
[26:20.25]they must innovate to remain competitive in today's global market.;
[26:25.55]In the last century companies sought to s trengthen their competitiveness;
[26:31.35]by increasing productivity.;
[26:33.78]Today, in addition to improving the bottom line through increases in productivity,;
[26:40.82]companies are aiming to grow the top line through investment in innovation.;
[26:47.32]Also, governments all over the world are beginning;
[26:52.33]to realize the value of innovation to the overall economic health;
[26:57.09]and well-being of their nations.;
[27:00.23]Innovation is indispensable to the progress of a nation.;
[27:05.67]Just as your president Mr. Jiang Zemin said, innovation is the soul of a nation's progress;
[27:13.88]The economic prosperity the United States enjoys today,;
[27:19.73]despite the financial turmoil in the global market,;
[27:23.82]shows that we are reaping the benefits of innovation.;
[27:28.05]And I believe there is no better case study of the importance;
[27:33.35]and value of innovation than the pharmaceutical industry.;
[27:38.93]Pharmaceutical innovation holds the greatest promise for providing long-term,;
[27:45.10]sustainable solutions to our current and future health care challenges worldwide.;
[27:51.72]Medicines not only offer hope to patients and their families,;
[27:57.31]but also can be cost-effective alternatives to other forms of care,;
[28:02.36]such as surgery and hospitalization.;
[28:06.04]Merck has discovered more important new medicines;
[28:09.93]than any other research organization in the world.;
[28:13.86]In the past three years, we have introduced 12 new medicines and vaccines;
[28:20.03]— more than in any similar period in our history.;
[28:24.17]Of those 12, we introduced five in just the past nine months.;
[28:30.67]Last year, we strengthened our commitment to innovation;
[28:35.04]by doubling the rate of increase of spending for basic and applied research,;
[28:40.19]compared to the rate in the year before.;
[28:43.35]Clearly,innovation not only is driving growth at Merck,;
[28:48.59]but also is benefiting millions of people worldwide.;
[28:52.92]For patients, innovation by Merck has meant new medicines for HIV/AIDS;
[28:59.83]osteoporosis, asthma, migraine and cardiovascular disease.;
[29:06.65]For investors, it has translated into strong earnings growth;
[29:11.76]and stock price appreciation. And for our employees,;
[29:16.75]it has brought meaningful work and advancement opportunities.;
[29:21.77]As Merck expands into new therapeutic areas and parts of the world,;
[29:28.22]as we become even larger,;
[29:30.70]more complex and more geographically dispersed,;
[29:34.87]we'll continue to face new difficulties and competitive scientific challenges.;
[29:42.02]The key to overcoming those challenges and the key to our success is constant innovation;
[29:49.79]It is what we believe sets us apart and creates a true competitive advantage.;
[29:56.73]The firm commitment to innovation defines the type of leadership;
[30:01.98]we need at Merck to succeed in the 21st century. Thank you.;

[41:27.28]Passage 2 English-Chinese Interpretation Text interpreting;
[41:38.97]Listen to the tape and interpret the following passage from English into Chinese:;
[41:48.51]London is the capital of the United Kingdom and chief city of the British Commonwealth.;
[41:55.73]With a population of about 7 million and an area of 1,580 sq km,;
[42:03.97]this vast metropolis is by far the largest city in Europe,;
[42:09.07]a distinction it has maintained since the 17th century.;
[42:14.13]In the 19th century it was the largest and most influential city in the world,;
[42:19.88]the center of a large and prosperous overseas empire.;
[42:23.94]Although it no longer ranks among the world's most populous cities,;
[42:29.41]London is still one of the world's major financial and cultural capitals.;
[42:35.51]By European standards, London is physically spread out and dispersed,;
[42:41.45]without a predominant focal point.;
[42:44.11]London's metropolitan area is divided into 32 boroughs and the City of  London.;
[42:51.72]At the core of this immense urban area is Central London,;
[42:56.61]which includes the City of London, the City of Westminster,;
[43:00.72]and districts in the West End.;
[43:03.49]The City of London is the traditional heart of the city;
[43:07.59]and stands as its own political unit.;
[43:10.62]The City of Westminster is the seat of the national government.;
[43:15.61]Much of the outer portion of this huge conglomeration of people;
[43:20.26]and activities is made up of low-rise residential development.;
[43:25.17]The historical center of London is now a relatively small area still known;
[43:30.66]as the City, which covers only about 2.6 sq km.;
[43:37.21]This is where London began as a Roman colonial town around AD 50.;
[43:43.37]Today this area is one of the world's leading financial centers.;
[43:48.97]The permanent residential population of the City is now less than 6,000,;
[43:54.79]but about 350,000 commute here daily to work.;
[43:59.57]The most prominent landmark of the City is Saint Paul's Cathedral.;
[44:04.71]The City of Westminster, about two miles from the City of London,;
[44:09.25]emerged as England's political;
[44:11.56]and religious center of power after the 11th century.;
[44:15.61]At the heart of Westminster is Westminster Abbey,;
[44:19.67]which has always been closely associated with the monarchy;
[44:23.33]and is used for such state occasions as coronations and royal funerals.;
[44:29.05]Virtually across the street are the Houses of Parliament,;
[44:32.69]officially called the New Palace of Westminster.;
[44:36.71]Farther west is the monarch's permanent residence in London, Buckingham Palace.;
[44:43.45]To the west and north of London's Trafalgar Square is the West End,;
[44:49.08]which is usually regarded as the center of town because it is London's shopping;
[44:54.35]and entertainment hub. The busiest shopping area is Oxford Street,;
[44:59.80]where famous large department stores are located.;
[45:03.67]Scattered throughout the Soho and Covent Garden sections are foreign restaurants;
[45:09.20]and entertainment attractions, including the Royal Opera House;
[45:13.27]and most of London's major theaters and movie houses.;
[45:17.18]In the northern part of the West End is Bloomsbury,;
[45:21.27]the city's traditional intellectual center, with its concentration of bookshops;
[45:26.52]and homes of writers and academics.;
[45:29.29]Here, too, are the British Museum and the giant complex of the University of London.;
[45:35.69]The East End of London, in strong contrast to the prosperous West End,;
[45:40.64]has frequently been characterized by slums, poverty, and crime.;
[45:46.06]The East End grew with the spread of industries to the east of the City.;
[45:50.84]It is especially famous as the centre of the clothing industry in London.;
[45:56.10]Petticoat market takes place every Sunday morning;
[45:59.94]and has become one of the beautiful sights of London.;
[46:04.03]London is one of the world's great centers for classical and popular culture.;
[46:09.50]It has enjoyed a reputation for superb theater;
[46:13.82]since the time of Shakespeare in the 16th century.;
[46:17.63]The variety ranges from the majestic Royal National Theatre;
[46:22.08]to the lavish Royal Opera House.;
[46:24.66]The sheer number of symphony orchestras is impressive;
[46:28.40]and includes the London Symphony Orchestra,;
[46:31.62]the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and the English Chamber Orchestra.;
[46:36.50]Some of the most well-known concert halls in the world,;
[46:40.22]such as the Royal Festival Hall,;
[46:42.41]provide favorable venues for the cornucopia of performances in London;
[46:48.65]London itself is a living museum, with more than 2000 years of history and culture;
[46:56.37]But it also boasts one of the greatest concentrations;
[47:00.26]of significant museums (more than 100) of any city in the world.;
[47:06.14]The jewel in this cultural crown is the British Museum,;
[47:10.27]with 4 km of galleries and more than 4 million exhibits.;
[47:15.53]The Victoria and Albert Museum displays an important;
[47:20.04]and varied collection of applied arts.;
[47:23.31]Across the street are the Natural History Museum with its dinosaurs,;
[47:28.95]and the Science Museum,;
[47:30.57]which includes a renowned section on the history of medicine.;
[47:35.46]The Museum of London effectively introduces visitors to London's history;
[47:40.76]by walking them through successive eras chronologically.;
[47:44.86]London is a major repository of the greatest Western art;
[47:49.10]and a creative center for contemporary artists.;
[47:52.84]The National Gallery on Trafalgar Square contains Britain's premier art collection;
[47:58.36]with holdings from every major European art school.;
[48:02.40]Next door is the National Portrait Gallery,;
[48:05.79]with thousands of striking portraits of Britons.;
[48:09.43]The Tate Gallery contains the principal collection of British art;
[48:14.03]and modern international art.;
[48:16.56]What Londoners do for a living has changed considerably since the city was a commercial;
[48:22.25]and industrial center in the 19th century.;
[48:25.31]Manufacturing has steadily declined;
[48:27.85]and today accounts for less than 10 percent of total employment.;
[48:32.52]The printing and publishing industry is now a leading employer.;
[48:36.95]Far more important is the services sector,;
[48:40.28]which employs 85 percent of London's workforce.;
[48:44.12]This is led by financial and business services.;
[48:48.17]Tourism is another important part of the services sector.;
[48:52.66]London attracts more than 24 million visitors annually ,;
[48:57.36]more than half of them from outside the country.;
[49:00.27]Serving tourists is thought to employ at least 300,000 Londoners.;
[49:06.91]Although London has suffered some growing pains through its history,;
[49:11.19]we have reasons to be optimistic about its future.;
[49:14.76]We're positive that this old city will continue;
[49:17.96]to be one of the world's great cities in a new spirit of youthful enthusiasm.;
