Part IⅡReading Comprehension(40minutes)
Section A
Directions:In this ction, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to lect one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage.Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter: Plea mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet2 with a single line through the centre. You may not u any of the words in the bank more than

The task of the global strategist of a business is to build a platform of capabilities derived from the resources,experiences and innovations of units operating in multiple locations, to transplant tho capabilities wherever 26 ,and then to systematically upgrade and renew them—ahead of the competition.
Apple is an outstanding ca of a company who unique capabilities give it a worldwide 27 advantage, particularly with respect to its ability to build platforms from a product ba that integrates functional and 28 design. Apple has been able to leverage and exploit its California-bad design and marketing advantages successfully throughout the world.IKEA is another such ca. The do-it-yourlf furniture and houware company first developed a compelling t of capabilities to design, manufacture and 29 furniture at low cost and ll it in a novel way in Sweden. Later, IKEA successfully 30 t his formula in many other countries.
By contrast, Telefonica,a Spanish telecommunications company that is now the world's fifth largest telecom by 31 ,first developed its special advantage abroad.In 1989 and 1990, Telefonica had the opportunity to enter Chile and Argentina, countries that shared many institutional and cultural characteristics with its home country but that were 32 more rapid market reform. Throughout the 1990s,Telefonica took what it learned in Chile and Argentina about reconstructing former state-owned telecoms to other Latin American countries that were privatizing their state telecoms and deregulating their telecom markets.
The examples might lead the reader to believe that creating a global advantage is an easy task. But many other 33 of expensive failed experiments suggest that creating a lasting global advant
age actually requires a great deal of 34 a nd operational fines( 技巧).Our rearch suggests that global winners typically create and sustain their international prence through a systematic process of 35 ,renewing and enhancing their core capabilities.

Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet2.
Fear of Nature:An Emerging Threat to Conrvation
A)What do we lo when natural spaces and species disappear? Increasingly,rearch has
shown that as species and ecosystems vanish, it also chips away at our ability to prerve what remains—becau we no longer understand what we're losing.
B)You probably e it all the time. The neighbor who puts pesticides on his lawn rather than
deal with annoying bees. The politician who votes against wildlife protection becau she's never en a wolf in the wild.The corporation that wants to bulldoze(用推土机推平)t h e h a b i t a t o f a r a r e f r o g.
C) At best this can be termed“the extinction of experience,”where our cultural and natural
histories fade from our memories and therefore our reality. At its worst it becomes something even more concerning:“biophobia,”the fear of living things and a complete aversion to nature.
D)This isn't the fiction of living in a cold, empty dystopia (绝望的世界) .Sadly,it's
becoming a way of life for too many people—especially children. A recent study in Japan paints a striking portrait of this problem. A survey of more than 5,300 school children in the Tochigi Prefecture examined their perception of 14 local inct species and one spider.
The results? A collective“ew!”Most of the students saw the species as things to dislike or fear, or even as sources of danger. The less experience the students had with nature,the more negative their feelings.
E) The results were published earlier this year in the journal Biological Conrvation. Lead
rearcher Masashi Soga with the University of Tokyo says the study stemmed from obrvations about today's nature-deficient children.“Humans inherently avoid dangerous organisms such as bees, but children the days avoid even harmless incts such as butterflies and dragonflies (蜻蜓),”he says.“I have long wondered why so many of today's children react like this.”
F)Although the children's reactions were somewhat expected, the new study did contain an
unexpected finding:Many of the surveyed children revealed that their parents also expresd fear or disgust of the same animals. In fact the parental emotions were strong
