2013同等學力申碩英語每日一練 5月08日

　　No country has expanded its foreign trade as fast as China over the last 20 years. Japan doubled its foreign trade over a 20-year period; China's foreign trade as quintupled. They've become the pre-eminent producer of labor-intensive manufacturing goods in the world. But there's been something missing from the dazzling China growth story-namely，the Chinese multinational. No major Chinese companies have yet established themselves， or their brands， on the global stage. But as Haier shows， that is starting to change. After 100 years of poverty and chaos， of being overshadowed by foreign countries and multinationals， Chinese industrial companies are starting to make a mark on the world.

　　參考答案：

　　在過去20年中，世界上沒有任何一個國家的外貿發展速度像中國那么快。日本用了20多年時間才將其外貿總額翻了一番，而中國卻翻了兩番。他們已經成為世界上勞動密集型產品的主要生產商了。不過，在這個令人目眩的中國發展故事中似乎缺少了一種什么東西，即中國跨國公司所扮演的角色。中國還沒有一家大型公司在全球舞臺上確立了自己的地位或品牌。但是，正如海爾公司所顯示的那樣，這種情況正在開始發生變化。經受了長達100年的貧窮、動亂以及長期籠罩在外國及其跨國公司的陰影下之后，中國工業公司開始對世界產生影響了。
