翻译练习（一） Statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs The US side has signed into law the so-called Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act. This is a severe interference in Hong Kong affairs, which are China’s internal affairs. It is also in serious violation of international law and basic norms governing international relations. The Chinese government and the people firmly oppose such stark hegemonic acts. Since Hong Kong’s return to the motherland, success of the “one country, two systems” principle has been universally recognized. Hong Kong residents enjoy unprecedented democratic rights in accordance with law. The US has been disregarding facts and distorting truth. It openly backed violent criminals who rampantly smashed facilities, set fire, assaulted innocent civilians, trampled on the rule of law, and jeopardized social order. The egregious and malicious nature of its intentions is fully revealed. Its very aim is to undermine Hong Kong’s stability and prosperity, sabotage the practice of “one country, two systems”, and disrupt the Chinese nation’s endeavor to realize the great renewal. We remind the US that Hong Kong is part of China and Hong Kong affairs are China's internal affairs where no foreign government or force shall interfere. This Act will only further expose the malicious and hegemonic nature of US intentions to the Chinese people, including our Hong Kong compatriots. And the Chinese people will only stand in greater solidarity. The US attempts are bound to fail. The Chinese government is determined in opposing foreign interference in Hong Kong affairs. We are determined in implementing the “one country, two systems” principle and safeguarding national sovereignty, security and development interests. We urge the US to not continue going down the wrong path, or China will take countermeasures, and the US must bear all consequences.

VISION AND EXECUTION: TWO SIDES OF A SUCCESSFUL STRATEGY

A strategic plan is not the end goal of the strategic planning process – it is the framework for successfully implementing a strategy. Until a strategic plan is put into effect, it has no real value.

There are several keys to successful implementation. First, people directly involved in executing the strategy must be included in the planning process. Strategic planning is no longer a top-down directive. Without the input and feedback of the people responsible for executing on the strategy, a seemingly solid strategy is likely to fall apart when implementation is attempted.

The next key to successful implementation is clearly communicating the strategy to the whole company. The communication should ensure that everyone in the company understands and accepts the strategy as the best path forward, and not simply the leadership's latest idea. Without clear communication, employees lack a sense of ownership and clarity of purpose. When a strategy is not understood or embraced, it usually results in misunderstanding and uneven commitments to implementation.

Another key to the successful execution of a strategic plan is the clear and straightforward description of the plan and its operations. Even the most brilliant strategy faces failure if it cannot be explained clearly and concisely.

Two People，Two Paths

You must be familiar with the situation：Dad’s driving，Mum’s telling him where to go．He’s sure that they need to turn left But she says it’s not for another two blocks．Who has the better sense of direction？ Men or women.

They both do, a new study says．but in different ways．

Men and women．Canadian researchers have found，have different methods of finding their

way．Men look quickly at landmarks(地标)and head off in what they think is the right direction．

Women, however, try to picture the whole route in detail and then follow the path in their head．

“women tend to be more detailed,”said Edward Cornell．who led the study,“while men

tend to be a little bit faster and …a little bit more intuitive(直觉感知的)．”

In fact, said Cornell,“sense of direction”isn’t one skill but two．

The first is the“survey method”.This is when you see all area from above, such as a printed map．Y0u can see，for example，where the hospital is，where the church is and that the

supermarket is on its right．

The second skill is the“route method”This is when you use a series of directions．You start

from the hospital，then turn left，turn fight，go uphill——and then you see the supermarket．

Men are more likely to use the survey method while women are more likely to use one route and follow directions．

Both work, and neither is better．

Some scientists insist that these different skills have a long history. They argue it is because of the difference in traditional roles.

In ancient times，young men often went far away with the older men to fish or hunt．The trip took hours or days and covered unfamiliar places．The only way to know where you were was to use the survey method to remember landmarks—the mountains, the lakes and so on．

The women，on the other hand，took young girls out to find fruits and plants．These activities were much closer to home but required learning well-used paths．So, women’s sense of

space was based on learning certain routes．

41 When finding his way, Dad tends to rely on

A his intuitive knowledge.

B his book knowledge．

C Mum’s assistance.

D the police’s assistance．

Passage Two Critical Path （questions 7-10 2 point...

Passage Two Critical Path (questions 7-10 2 points for each 8 points totally） David Hayden founded his company, Critical Path, an email provider. In 1997 to take advantage of the boom in email traffic. Critical Path became a public company two years later, and Hayden took the opportunity to step down from his executive position In order to work on personal projects. At the same time, he agreed to stay with the company as Chairman, but the business was put in the hands of new managers by its investors. With sector-leading products and an expanding market, the company seemed to be on the up and up. However, by early 2001, it was in trouble. Shares that had been worth $26 in 1999, when they were first sold, were down to a mere 24 cents. Called in by a panicking board, Hayden found himself back in charge as Executive Chairman, trying desperately to rescue what he could. The 1,100 staff had lost confidence in the company and did not know what was going to happen to them. And, as Hayden discovered, the management team was Incompetent. 'Those guys didn't understand the product or the sector,' says Hayden, 'The heads of department didn't communicate and they didn't lead.' But what was worse, Critical Path had lost the goodwill of its investors. Hayden knew that bringing the figures under control would be a vital step In the company's turnaround. 'You've got to sort out the finances. For me, that meant getting back the goodwill of the investors. That was tough, after what had happened. But although they were angry with the company, they didn't have bad feelings about me. I told them that I knew I could get the company on its feet again.' He was authorized to make whatever changes were required, and his first act was to find people within the company he could trust and put them In charge. The next thing Hayden had to tackle was morale. 'Everyone Idt the office at five on the dot - they couldn't get away quickly enough. To get the buzz back and win the staff over, I had to prove my own commitment and put in the extra hours with them.' In return, It was assumed that nobody would ask for overtime pay until the company was on its ect. again. Contrary to normal practice, Hayden was reluctant to lay people off, and apart from not replacing people as they reached retirement age, he left the workforce largely unchanged, although he did identify key people throughout the company who were given more responsibility. But, as Hayden Insists, before a company reaches such a crisis, there are warning signs that any financial director or accountant should take note of. *A business that has an unrealistic pricing policy or has to negotiate extended credit with its suppliers Is In trouble/ is his message. 'Or 1(you often have to apply for your overdraft limit to be raised or have trouble paying tax on time, something needs to be done. By 2003, the company was healthy again, with reasonably stable finances and a modest but steady share price of $1.60. 'One thing that helped save us was that our technology worked,* says Hayden. 'With 20 million email accounts, we never lost a single major client because the product kept on working.' With ideas for a fresh venture demanding his attention elsewhere, Hayden has moved on. 'It was time to go,' he says. Tm not a turnaround specialist. prefer start-ups.' （）7.What event coincided with Critical Path becoming a public company？ Hayden became the Executive Director of Critical Path Investors hired a replacement team to run Critical Path. Critical Path launched a successful new product on the market. Critical Path was floated on the Stock Exchange at 24 cents per share. （）8.One reason Hayden was able to turn Critical Path around was that he managed to find new investors. B.the financial situation was not as bad as he had thought C.he had built up a good relationship with the management team D.he was given the support that he needed （）9.According to Hayden, what could indicate that a business is in trouble？ problems keeping accounts up to date B. suppliers refusing to offer new credit terms C. a frequent need to increase the amount borrowed D. difficulties in getting payment from customers on time （）10.Hayden left Critical Path after he had rescued the company because A. he wanted to develop the technology for a new internet service B. he wanted to concentrate on founding a new enterprise C.he had been offered a job with a major internet company D.he decided to go into partnership with a major client.

Two People, Two Paths

You must be familiar with the situation: Dad's driving, Mum's telling him where to go.He's sure that they need to turn left. But she says it's not for another two blocks. Who has the better sense of direction Men or women.

They both do, a new study says, but in different ways.

Men and women,- Canadian researchers have found, have different methods of finding their way. Men look quickly at landmarks （地标） and head off in what they think is the right direction. Women, however, try to picture the whole route in detail and then follow the path in their head.

"Women tend to be more detailed," said Edward Cornell, who led the study, "while men tend to be a little bit faster and...a little bit more intuitive （直觉感知的）."

In fact, said Cornell, "sense of direction" isn't one skill but two.

The first is the "survey method". This is when you see an area from above, such as a printed map. You can see, for example, where the hospital is, where the church is and that the supermarket is on its right.

The second skill is the "route method". This is when you use a series of directions. You start from the hospital, then turn left, turn right, go uphill －and then you see the supermarket.

Men are more likely to use the survey method while women are more likely to use one route and follow directions.

Both work, and neither is better.
