Use the blank sheet for note-taking.听力原文The first era in American urban history extended from the early 17th century to about

3、 1840.Throughout those years, the total urban population remained small and so were the cities. At the first federal census in 1790, city dwellers made up nearly 5. 1% of the total population and only 2 places had more than 25,000 inhabitants. Fifty years later, only 10.8% of the nations population

4、fell into the urban category and only one city New York contained more than 50,000 people. Largely because of the unsophisticated modes of transportation, even the more popular places in the early 19th century remained small enough that people easily walked from one end of the city to the other in t

5、hose days. Though small by modern standards, these walking cities, as it were, performed a variety of functions in those days. One was economic. Throughout the pre-modern era, this part of the urban life remained so overwhelmingly commercial that almost every city owed its development to trade. Yet

6、city dwellers concerned themselves not only with promoting agricultural activities in their rural areas. They also collected and processed goods from these areas and then distributed them to other cities. From the beginning then and increasingly in the 18th and early 19th centuries, cities served as

7、 centres of both commerce and simple manufacturing. Apart from the economic functions, the early cities also had important non-economic functions to play. Since libraries, museums, schools, and colleges were built and needed people to go there to visit or to study, cities and the larger early towns,

8、 with their concentrations of population, tended to serve as centres of educational activities and the points from which information was spread to the countryside. In addition, the towns with people of different occupational, ethnic, racial and religious affiliations became focuses of formal and inf

9、ormal organizations, which were set up to foster the security and to promote the interests and influence of each group. In these days, the pre-industrial city in America functioned as a complex and varied organising element in American life, not as a simple, homogeneous and static unit. The vitality

10、 of these early cities was reinforced by the nature of their location and by the process of town spreading. Throughout the pre-industrial period of American history, the cities occupied sites on the eastern portion of the then largely undeveloped continent and the settlement of countryside generally

11、 followed the expansion of the towns in that region. The various interest groups in each city tended to compete with their counterparts in other cities for economic, social and political control, first of nearby and later of more distant and larger areas. And always there remained the undeveloped re

12、gions to be developed through the establishment of new towns by individuals and groups. These individuals and groups sought economic opportunities or looked for a better social, political or religious atmosphere. In this sense, the city still helped the development of the successions of urban fronti

13、ers. Well, this kind of circumstance made Americans one of the most political and self-conscious city-building peoples of their time. It did not result in a steadily urbanizing society in the sense that decade by decade an even larger proportion of population lived in cities. In 1690, an estimated 9

14、10% of American colonists lived in urban settlements. A century later, that is, the end of the 18th century, though 24 places had 2, 500 persons or more, city dwellers accounted for only 5.1%of the total population. For the next 30 years, the proportion remained relatively stable and it was not unti

15、l 1830 that the urban figure moved back up to the level of 1690. In short, as the number of cities increased after 1690, they sent larger numbers of people into the countryside. Then they returned. Nonetheless, the continuous movement of people into and out of the cities made life in the many but re

16、latively small places lively and stimulating. 第1题：参考答案：C答案解析：第2题：参考答案：A答案解析：第3题：参考答案：D答案解析：第4题：参考答案：C答案解析：第5题：参考答案：A答案解析：听力原文Im talking to Janet Toms, who has spent many years negotiating for several well-known national and multinational companies. M: Hello, Janet. F: Hello. M: Now, Janet, youve exp

17、erienced and observed the negotiation strategies used by people from different countries and speakers of different languages. So before we come on to the differences, could I ask you to comment, first of all, on what such encounters have in common? F: OK, well, Im just going to focus on the situatio

18、ns where people speak English in nternational business situations. M: I see. Now not everyone speaks English to the same degree of proficiency, so maybe that affects the situation. F: Yes, perhaps. But thats not always so significant. Well, because, I mean, negotiations between business partners fro

19、m different countries normally mean that we have negotiations between individuals who belong to distinct cultural traditions. M: Oh, I see. F: Well, every individual has a different way of performing various tasks in everyday life. M: Yes, but, but isnt it the case that in the business negotiation t

20、hey must come together and work together to a certain extent? I mean, doesnt that level out the style, the style of differences somewhat? F: Oh, Im not so sure. I mean there are people in the so called western world who say that in the course of the past 30 or 40 years, there are a lot of things tha

21、t have changed a great deal globally. And then as a consequence, national difference has diminished or got fewer, giving way to some sort of international Americanized style. M: Yeah. I heard that. Now some people say this Americanized style has acted as a model for local patterns. F: Maybe it has,

22、maybe it hasnt. Because on the one hand there does appear to be a fairly unified, even uniform style of doing business, with certain basic principles and preferences, you know, like time is money, that sort of thing. But at the same time, its very important to remember that we all retain aspects of

23、the national characteristics. But its actually behavior that were talking about here. We shouldnt be too quick to eneralize that into national characteristics and stereotypes. It doesnt help much. M: Yeah, you mentioned Americanized style. What is particular about the American style of business barg

24、aining or negotiation? F: Well, Ive noticed that. For example, when Americans negotiate with people from Brazil, the American negotiators make their points in a direct, self-explanatory way. M: I see. F: Well, the Brazilians make their points in a more indirect way. M: How? F: Let me give you an exa

25、mple. Brazilian importers look at people that they are talking too straight in the eyes a lot. They spend time on what for some people seems to be background information. They seem to be more indirect. M: Then, what about the American negotiators? F: An American style of negotiating, on the other ha

26、nd, is far more like that of point-making, first point, second point, third point, and so on. Now of course, this isnt the only way in which one can negotiate. And there is absolutely no reason why this should be considered the best way to negotiate. M: Right. Americans seem to have a different styl

27、e, say., even from the British, dont they? F: Exactly, which just goes to show how careful you must be about generalizing. I mean,how else can you explain how American negotiators are seen as informal and sometimes much too open. For, in British eyes, Americans are direct, even blunt. M: Is that so?

28、 F: Yeah. And at the same time for the British, too, German negotiators can appear direct and uncompromising in negotiations. And yet, if you experience Germans and Americans negotiating together, its often the Americans who will be too blunt for German negotiators. M: Fascinating. So people from di

29、fferent European countries use different styles, dont they? F: Thats right. M: OK. So what about the Japanese, then? I mean is their style different from Americansand Europeans? F: Oh, well, yes, of course. Many Europeans know the extreme politeness of their Japanese counterparts. The way they avoid

30、 giving the slightest offence, you know. They are also very reserved towards people they dont know well. At the first meetings,American colleagues have difficulties in finding the right approach sometimes. But then,when you meet the Japanese negotiators again, this initial impression turns to disapp

31、ear.But its perhaps true to say that your average Japanese business person does choose his or, more rarely, her words very carefully. M: So can we say that whatever nationality youre dealing with, you need to remember that different nationalities negotiate in different ways? F: Well, its perhaps mor

32、e helpful to bear in mind that different people behave and negotiate in different ways and you shouldnt assume that everyone will behave in the same way that you do. M: Right, this is definitely a very useful tip for our business men who often negotiate with their overseas partners. Ok, Janet, thank

33、 you very much for talking with us. F: My pleasure. 第6题：参考答案：B答案解析：第7题：参考答案：D答案解析：第8题：参考答案：A答案解析：第9题：参考答案：C答案解析：第10题：参考答案：B答案解析：SECTION B In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY.
