2019年00096外刊经贸知识选读自考模拟试题简答题（二）

Passage 1

A clearly confident China has rolled up a large section of its bamboo curtain, declared itself “open to the outside world” and hung signs on nearly all its cities inviting foreign investors to come and do serious business.

For foreign investors, the prospect of having access to a market of 1.3 billion consumers no longer seems like a pipedream. The Chinese－in particular the rural population－are getting richer and now want visible improvements to their standard of living: they aspire to own colour TV sets, refrigerators, trucks, washing machines and better radios, bicycles and clothing. Even local factories are taking note of the vast potential sales in their own domestic market.

36.   Please paraphrase “has rolled up a large section of its bamboo curtain” in Line 1.

37.   What is implied by using the word “better”? Does it refer merely to the quality of goods here or something more?

38.   What do “having access to” and “sales” mean?

Passage 2

America wants Japan to meet import targets for some American goods. An unwilling Japan has decided to draw the line.

Once, when Japan faced pressure from abroad, it would either give in reluctantly or keep quiet and hope that the fuss would die down. No longer, it seems. The Clinton administration strongly believes in exerting such pressure. Its policy is to open some Japanese markets (which it deems to be closed) by setting import targets－an approach to trade policy that supporters call “result-oriented”. This ugly term foreshadows uncertain consequences. Far from capitulating to this new thrust of American trade policy, Japan is taking a stand that could lead to a trans-Pacific confrontation.

39.   Please give a synonym to the expression “give in” and explain the meaning of “draw the line”.

40.   What would Japan do in the past when foreign countries put pressure on its international trade policy?

41. Please paraphrase the underlined sentence “No longer, it seems”.
