Headline
A The
Chinese tech market is an alluring one.
B
But
Microsoft
may
actually
be
better
off
in
China
than
many
other
US
tech
companies.
C Instead, worse
off in the China market are hardware companies
like Cisco and IBM.
D
It
’
s been a rough year for
foreign tech companies in China.
11.
Microsoft
is
the
latest
to
make
headlines
with
a
tale
of
woe,
in
the
form
of
a
$$140m
tax
fee
paid
to
Chinese
authorities.
(Microsoft
prefers
to
call
it
a
$$140m
“
bilateral
advanced
pricing
agreement
”
).
This
comes
on
top
of
an
antitrust
investigation
launched
in
July
and
this
week
’
s
news
that
one
of
China
’
s
largest
companies is
switching its email service away from Microsoft.
12. Due to rampant piracy,
Microsoft
’
s revenues in
China have never been very big
(about
the same size as revenues in the Netherlands).
Microsoft
’
s overall revenues
rose
25
per
cent
last
quarter,
year
on
year,
despite
the
“
more
challenging
environment
”
reported in China and Russia.
13.
Cisco
’
s
sales
in
China
have
halved
during
the
past
two
years,
driven
by
a
backlash
after the Snowden revelations and by the
increasing capabilities of Chinese
equipment
manufacturers
like
Huawei.
IBM
’
s
China
revenues
are
falling
too,
the
company disclosed last
quarter
–
on top
of a 22 per cent
year-on-year drop in
the
comparable quarter last year. IBM
said a tough hardware market was to blame. The
company
will
exit
part
of
that
business
with
the
sale
of
its
x86
server
business
to
Lenovo, a deal that closed in October.
Then
there
’
s Qualcomm, which
partners with Chinese manufacturers who produce
its
chips; the company says one-fifth
of its licensed 3G/4G devices are going unreported
(which
means
no
licence
fees).
The
company
is
having
trouble
resolving
these
disputes because it is simultaneously
the subject of a Chinese antitrust investigation.
14. IT spend in China may
grow at 5.7 per cent next year, as forecast by
IDC, to the
US
’
s
3.7 per cent, but given the size of their
respective markets
–
the US is three.

Even at 25
years
’
distance
from that world-changing event, the fall of the
Berlin
Wall, what inspires admiration
is the civilised manner in which the people of
Poland,
Hungary,
East
Germany
and
Czechoslovakia
–
____15_______
–
dismantled
communist regimes
that had oppressed them since the late 1940s.
The
peaceful
change
that
underpinned
the
rebirth
of
Poland
and
Hungary,
the
unification
of
East
and
West
Germany
in
1990
and
Czechoslovakia
’
s
“

divorce
”
in 1993 into separate Czech and Slovak
states was a precondition for each
country
’
s
success.
Where violence accompanied the
end of communism, as
in
the
former Yugoslavia, ___16 ________.
The
collective
term
“
eastern
Europe
”
made
little
sense
in
the
communist
era,
given
the
conspicuous
differences
in
each
country
’
s
history,
economy,
ethnic
composition,
one-party
system
and
relationship
with
Moscow.
It
makes
even
less
sense today
–
______17 _______with Nato and the EU,
of which they are members
or partners.
As David Lipton, the
International Monetary
Fund
’
s first deputy managing
director,
says
in
25
Years
of
Transition,
an
IMF
report:
“
After
years
of
isolation
from
the
western economic system,
and after the distortions and deprivations of the
communist
system, most citizens just
wanted to live in a normal country with a normal
economy
and, ____18____, that vision
was
captured in
the allure
of integrating with western
Europe.
”
Not everything is
“
normal
”
in the region. Per capita gross
domestic product in
Poland, which in
some respects is
the star
economic performer, is slightly more than
half that of Germany. This is a big
improvement from 1989, when it was about a third,
but there remains much catching up to
do.
A given their history
and geography
B progress has been more
uneven
C except insofar as all identify
security and prosperity
D with varying
degrees of help from reformers inside the power
apparatus

下面摘出
world trade report
2014
关于此图表的段落：
For the second time in two
years in 2013, merchandise trade grew more slowly
than
might have been expected, given
the growth of the world economy as measured by
GDP. Although trade can grow faster or
more slowly than output in any given year,
since the 1990s it has tended to grow
about twice as fast as GDP when measured at
market exchange rates. In 2012, trade
growth fell to the same rate as GDP, and they
remained at equal rates in 2013,
prompting analysts to question whether the
previous
relationship would continue to
hold.
The
ratio
of
ten-year
moving
averages
of
world
trade
growth
and
world
GDP
growth peaked at 2.4 in
2000 (see Figure 3) but fell to 1.7 in 2013.
Historically, trade
has
tended
to
contract
when
world
output
has
slowed,and
to
rebound
sharply
afterwards.
Structural
factors
(e.g.
the
spread
of
supply
chains,
the
product
composition of world
trade, subtle protectionism, etc.) may have played
a role in the
declining
ratio.
However,
given
the
number
and
severity
of
global
slowdowns
in
recent years, it may
simply be a cyclical phenomenon. It is too soon to
say whether a
2:1
relationship
between
trade
growth
and
GDP
growth
will
return
once
the
global
recovery gains
traction.
World
merchandise trade growth of 2.2 per cent in 2013
is below the
average rate of 5.3 per
cent for the last 20 years
(1993
–
2013) and the
pre-crisis average rate of 6.0 per cent
for 1990
–
2008 (see Figure
4).
In
addition
to
creating
a
permanent
shift
downward
in
the
level
of
trade,
the
global
recession of
2008-09
may
have
reduced
its
average
growth
rate
as
well.
The
average
rate
of
trade
expansion
in
the
three
years
since
2010
has been 3.3 per
cent.
松开的记忆，飘落的莫名的尘埃，
像起伏的微风，拂过脑海，留下一份情愁。一条街，没有那些人，那些身影，却能来回徘徊穿梭。街，行走时，纵
然漫长，漫长，有时只为听一颗流动的心
的呓语。沉默，倔强，回望，忘记，记住，一切
像断了的弦，有时希望生活简单就好，有时却又莫名的颓废其中。
有些路，只能一个人走；有些事，
只能一个人去经历。粗读加缪、萨特的存在主义，它告诉我，人就是非理性的存在。光秃秃的枝桠、清寂的清晨、
流动的阳光，飘落于心，或快意，或
寂寥，映照心境，然而，有时却只属于那一刻。总之
，一切只是心情。
人生的画面一幅幅地剪辑，最后拼凑出的是一张五彩斑斓的水彩画，有艳丽的火红色，凝重的墨黑以及
一抹忧郁的天蓝色。人的记忆很奇特，那些曾经的过往，就像一幅幅的背景图，只
有一个
瞬间，却没有以前或以后。比如，只能记得某个瞬间的微笑，只能在记忆的痕迹寻觅某时刻骑着单车穿过路口拐角
的瞬间，却都不知晓为何微笑，为何穿过街角。
一切，有时荒诞得像一场莫名情景剧。然而，这就是生活。
曾经的梦，曾经的痛，曾经的歌，
曾经的热情相拥，曾经的璀璨星空。
也许，多年以后，再也见不到的那些人，和着记忆的碎片飘荡
