For example, many companies sponsored the 8th Nationa
16、l Games held in Shanghai in 1997. Then, what exactly do companies and industries get out of sponsoring big sports events, such as international games? And why need they do so?There is an obvious answer and a not so obvious one. The obvious answer is that they get known worldwide, particularly if the
17、y are the principal sponsors of an event. This is especially important when you consider the number of countries around the world that might show the event on TV. The not so obvious answer is that sponsorship can help firms to save money. Then how can they save money in this way? Companies can claim
18、 expenditures on sponsorship or “support to sport and the arts“-against the amount of tax that they owe. So, if they are going to have to pay tax anyway, why not spend the money on promoting their name or product?However, sponsorship is surely a very expensive business. So, how does one decide which
19、 events or activities to support? Companies spend a lot of time making sure that they have a perfect match between the products to be represented and the activity that needs sponsorship. Basically, companies have to make sure that the image is right and that the product gets maximum coverage through
20、 the event. I mean, you wouldnt expect a company whose product has a young international image to sponsor a sport that has a following among older people. There are all sorts of reasons behind sponsorship. Thats what the game-about for those who are trying to sell it.There are some important points
21、to consider before agreeing to sponsor an event. First and foremost, I suppose, is the popularity of the event in global terms. I mean, events like the World Cup and the Olympics have businesses queuing up to offer sponsorship. There are the big media events: hours and hours of TV and satellite cove
22、rage guaranteed all over the world, as well as press coverage and the possibility of photographs that in some way advertise your product. Most events arent quite like that, though. I suppose youve got the national games every four years in China. But most events appeal to only a limited proportion o
23、f the potential audience-tennis, for example. Most of the audience there is young, so products for the young are the ones that you would associate with the event.Then how do you match up the product with the event? The most important thing with the smaller event is to identify the audience its going
24、 to appeal to-in this instance, tennis and young people. That should attract drinks manufactures, sports fashion designers, cosmetics producers, and so on. Then you look at the potential coverage in the media. It the sort of event that might attract Coca-Cola or Pepsi maybe even McDonalds.In sponsor
25、ing sports events, it is not just the media coverage that matters. The important question is whether the people whove either been to the event or read about it in the press will be more likely to buy your product as a result. A lot of the advantages of investment in sponsorship are longer-term. Peop
26、le who have possibly read about or watched an event on TV may not even be able to tell you who was sponsoring the event, yet will react favorably if asked to comment on products marketed by the sponsoring company. They have been conditioned in some way. Conditioning the mind is what advertising is a
27、bout. Believe it or not, straight advertising is a far more expensive way of promoting your image than sponsorship, and whats more, sponsorship is mostly tax-free.To sum up, today we have talked about sponsorship of sports events by companies: the reasons behind and a few related points. I hope this
28、 will help you gain some insight into the issue.填空项 1:_ （正确答案：known）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：save）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：matches）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：coverage）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：media）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：audience）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：favorably）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：conditioning）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：expensive/costly）解析：二、BSECTION B/B(总
29、题数：1，分数：5.00)In section B, you will hear everything ONCE ONLY. Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Mark the correct answer to each question.Questions 1 to 5 are based on an interview.（分数：5.00）(1).The interviewees first job was with _.（分数：1.00）A.a newspaperB.the government C.a
30、 construction firmD.a private company解析：听力原文 1-5 A: So, youre an architect? B: Yes. A: Do. you work for a public or private organisation, or are you self-employed, that is, working on your own? B: Im working for a private design and construction company. A: How did you start your career? B: I starte
31、d with the government. A: Oh, did you? What made you decide to work for the government? B: Well, it was a matter of chance really. I saw an advertisement for a vacant position in a newspaper, and I thought “Why dont you try it?“ In fact, I have no preferences to where I work, public or private. A: A
32、nd do you still have this idea, or . B: More or less, yes, although Im now working for a private firm, I worked for the government for about three years. It was alright. Of course theres the bureaucracy one has to put up with, but its not that bad, if you dont mind bureaucratic wheels turning slowly
33、, and things not being as efficient. A: Ah-ah. And what made you leave the public sector? B: Money mainly. You see, I got married, and my wife doesnt work, and we wanted to start a family right away. So we thought it might be better off if I moved to the private sector. This is why its hard for me t
34、o be self-employed because self-employed work has the disadvantage that there may be time, or a period of time when youre unemployed. A: I see, so did you join this company straight away or . B: No, I worked for, in a couple of private firms before I came to this one. A: Hmm, hmm. Now what qualifica
35、tions does one have to become an architect? B: Well, youve got to have a degree in architecture. That means before you apply to study architecture in any university, you have to pass exams, usually three A-levels with good results. Also you generally have to study sciences at school rather than arts
36、 . as the basis for the subject to be studied at university level, although when you really get down to it, the subject involves some aspects of arts too. Then you need between six and seven years to work through, by the end of which you usually sit for the final examination. A: So you mean to take
37、up architecture, one has to have a scientific background? B: Well, yes, mainly scientific, but it helps if you have some general arts background too. You know, architecture is not a pure science. A: Now, if one wants to take up architecture, one has got to be able to draw? Is that really true? B: We
38、ll, it is true that the work of an architect involves a lot of drawing, and to be an architect you must be able to draw. But this doesnt mean that if you cant at present draw, you wont have the opportunity to be an architect, because you can be taught to draw. In fact drawing in architecture is diff
39、erent from drawing in art. An artists drawing must be good in the sense that it gives a certain impression in the mind of the viewer, in fact some famous artists cant draw“ very well at all, at least not from a technical point of view. On the other hand, an architects drawing must be accurate. So Id
40、 say that accuracy of the drawings is what we aim at, whats important. A: Now what qualities do you think make a good architect, apart from being accurate in his drawings? B: Well, Im not sure if I can generalise about that. You see architecture is a mixture of theory and practice. So I suppose a go
41、od architect should be good at both. An architects work is good in as much as the construction is built precisely as the theory requires, so that it doesnt collapse or cant be used after a period of time because its dangerous. I dont mean a well-built construction will last forever, but its predicta
42、ble that if the building is constructed in a certain way, or with certain materials, we can say how long it will last, provided that theres no other factor. A: Such as? B: Er, for example, an earthquake, or if the ground level sinks which may destroy it. So thats one part of being a good architect t
43、o design a construction which is attractive and will last a long time. A: Right, so, thats the theory side. Now what about the practical aspect? B: Yes, the Practical side concerns, Id say, the use of the structure you design. If you design a house, the people who live in it later on, must be happy
44、living in it. Er, a college student shouldnt think to himself oh, Id rather be study . Id rather study in the library, my bedrooms too cold because the ceiling seems to be too high, and the windows too big. Or say, when somebodys cooking in the kitchen, the smell of the food shouldnt disturb somebod
45、y whos still in bed. The bathroom should be situated. for everyones convenience, but while its being used the noise shouldnt disturb anyone. So you see these practical things which give you comfort apart from serving the purpose of the construction whatever it may be, a school, a hospital, a hotel a
