三、阅读理解（本大题共10小题，每小题2分，共20分）
阅读下面的短文，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案填空或答题，错选、多选或未选均无分。
Passage 1
Most people agree that taxes must be paid. Government couldn't run without money. But people argue about how taxes should be collected.
Now the government works with a "progressive tax". Not everyone pays the same percentage of his salary in taxes. Poor people are in a low tax bracket. They pay the smallest percentage of income in taxes. Middle-income workers pay a larger percentage than the poor. And the rich fall into the high tax brackets. Few rich people like the progressive tax.
The government took a poll. Among other people, the government talked to Ray Mathers and Eve Winick. "Let's change to a flat rate tax," Says Ray Mathers. "Everyone should be taxed the same percentage. It's fair. And it's easy to figure out." Mathers is president of Trig Computer Company. He makes over $80,000 a year. "I don' t want a flat rate income tax," says Eve Winick. Winick is a grammar school teacher. Her school is in a poor neighborhood. She makes $14,000 a year. "I don't care if it's easier to figure out. What I want to know is, would I pay less tax?" Winick worries about her students' parents. "Some of them can hardly support themselves. Why should they pay heavier taxes? They're the people who need government services."
Mathers thinks a flat rate would help in the long run. "The country could lower taxes after a while. See, if I paid fewer taxes, I'd save money. I'd put that money into my business and hire more people. Those people could pay taxes. Everybody would be better off."
31. Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage?
A. The flat rate taxes everyone the same percentage.
B. The progressive tax covers a percentage of people's wages.
C. Ray Mathers and Eve Winick answered a government poll.
D. There is an argument over two different types of taxation.

32. You can infer that an unstated reason Mathers likes the flat rate tax is that _______.
A. it is easy to figure out
B. he probably pays heavy taxes
C. it is fair
D. he is poor

33. The people who are presently supposed to pay the highest percentage of their income in taxes are the _______.
A. rich
B. middle class
C. poor
D. businessmen

34. Winick does not want a flat rate tax, because _______.
A. she is rich
B. the flat rate tax is hard to figure out
C. she might have to pay more taxes
D. the flat rate fax is unfair to the rich

35. The phrase "better off" (in the last sentence of the passage) means _______.
A. in a worse condition
B. wealthy
C. doing more than expected
D. in a better condition

Passage 2
NEW YORK ― E-commerce has revolutionized the business world and won't disappear despite investors pulling the plug on many dot-coms, says Marcia H. Flicker, Ph. D., a Ford- ham University marketing professor.
"Venture capitalists are disgusted ［with the lack of returns］," she says. "The uncertainty went too far to the investment side in 1998 and 1999, and now it's gone too far the other way. Investors are so conservative that they are reluctant to invest even in sustainable businesses."
Flicker says pure Internet-based companies will have limited success. However, "click and mortar" sites ― those that are affiliated with a store and have catalogs in addition to a web address― will thrive. This strategy, employed by companies such as Pottery Barn and Eddie Bauer, is working well, she says.
Flicker predicts that web services will start charging fees now that revenues from banner ads are waning. The fee structures will allow some users to pay a higher price to avoid unsolicited advertising. Flicker presented these and other ideas at the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) International 2001 E-Commerce Conference last month.
Fordham's Graduate School of Business Administration was established in 1969. Its part-time MBA program is ranked 12th by U.S. News & World Report. The College of Business Administration, founded in 1920, is ranked among the "best buys" in undergraduate education by U. S. News & World Report.
Founded in 1841, Fordham is New York City's Jesuit University. It has residential campuses in the north Bronx and Manhattan, a graduate center in Tarrytown and the Louis Calder Center Biological Field Station in Armonk, N.Y.
36. The reporter sent the report from _______.
A. Fordham
B. New York
C. Tarrytown
D. Armonk

37. From the second paragraph, we get to know that _______.
A. venture capitalists invested a great deal in e-business in 1998 and 1999
B. e-businesses are likely to disappear
C. investors got little return from their investment in e-business in 1998 and 1999
D. more and more capitalists began to invest in e-business now

38. Which of the following is the most likely to be successful in e-business according to Flicker?
A. A well-designed web site.
B. A company with a large investment.
C. A purely Internet-based company.
D. A company having a store, catalogue and a website.

39. When was this report written?
A. In 1998.
B. B. In 1999.
C. In 2000.
D. In 2001.

40. Which is not true about Fordham University?
A. It was founded in 1841.
B. It has the College of Business Administration.
C. Its undergraduate education is better than graduate education.
D. It has the Louis Calder Center Biological Field Station in Armonk, N.Y.

六、英译汉 （本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）
阅读下面的短文，然后把划线的句子翻译成汉语。
(71) Even as exchanges emerge to enable rich interaction among companies, businesses are looking to the Internet to enable the adoption of truly dynamic pricing. One solution is emerging in the form of bots, software that serves as an agent acting on behalf of a specific user or application. Advancing bot technology enables dynamic, automated, real-time interaction between buyers and sellers, allowing sellers to capture the true value of their goods in the market. (72) The implications for businesses are vital, since this emerging technology may change how companies sell their goods. Ramifications companies need to take steps to address include:
●Disintermediation of individual auction environments through bots that allow buyers to automatically poll multiple auction services and fixed-price channels to garner advantageous terms;
●(73) Development of exchanges that aggregate the information harvested by bots in order to reduce transaction costs and eliminate concerns of fraud; and
●(74) The emergence of the bot-aggregator exchange as a primary sales channel, which employs rules to enable transactions.
●(75) The bot future is not yet certain. For example, providers must find ways to reduce per-transaction costs before widespread adoption can occur. But the powerful connectivity of the Internet is rapidly evolving the buyer/seller relationship. With bot technology advancing quickly, companies should prepare for a future priced for demand.
