1、The market leader is frequently able to lead other firms in the introduction of new products, in price changes, in the level or intensity of promotions, and so on. 市场领导者在引进新产品、调整价格、促销活动等方面能够领导其它企业。 2、Contrary to a common belief, wholly dominating a market, or having a monopoly, is seldom an advantage: competitors expand markets and find new uses and users for products, which enriches everyone in the field, but the market leader more than its competitors. 和普遍看法相反，完全控制市场，或者垄断，很难有优势：竞争者扩大市场，寻找产品的新用途和客户，从而使这个领域的人富有，但是市场领导者比竞争者得到更多。 3、In the car hire business, the challenger actually advertises this fact: for many years Avis used the slogan ‘We’re number two. We try harder.’ 在汽车市场，竞争者登广告的真相是：阿维斯多年来一直用这个标语“我们是第二，我们一直很努力。” 4、Although small companies are generally flexible, and can quickly respond to market conditions, their narrow range of customers causes problematic fluctuations in turnover and profit. 尽管一些小公司很灵活，能够迅速对市场情况做出反应，他们有限的范围内的客户们导致翻覆波动和利润的不确定。5、Although the market could understand data concerning companies’earnings, it was highly inefficient in valuing assets, including land, buildings and pension funds. 尽管市场能够获悉企业收入的资料，对价值资产的利用效率非常低，包括土地，建筑和养老基金。 6、The ideal targets for such buyouts were companies with huge cash reserves that enabled the buyer to pay the interest on the debt, or companies with successful subsidiaries that could be sold to repay the principal, or companies in fields that are not sensitive to a recession such as food and tobacco.

商务英语的翻译标准及要求 商务英语是英语在商务场合这一特定的专业学科服务的专门用途英语。下面是小编分享的商务英语的翻译标准及要求，一起来看一下吧。 商务英语的翻译标准及要求 对于翻译的标准，自1898 年严复提出“信、达、雅”的翻译主张以来，人们一直讨论不断，争论不休，目前尚无定论。而各家学者对商务英语的翻译标准也不一，比如，刘法公先生曾提出了“忠实、准确、统一”的商务翻译标准；叶玉龙等认为“对商务英语来说，翻译标准除 ‘忠实通顺’外，还应加上‘地道’”。张新红、李明认为，“商务英语 翻译译者除了要精通两种语言及其文化以及熟悉翻译技巧之外，还必须熟悉商务方面的知识，了解商务各个领域的语言特点和表达法”。 专家们的论述见仁见智，但笔者认为，对于对外商务英语的翻译应博采众长，“以忠实通顺为基础，力求准确与统一”。 “忠实通顺”，指商务英语的译文应是英语原文信息的真实反映，译者应最大限度地将商务英语原文作者所赋予原文的语言文字转移到汉语译文里。译文除了要忠实于商务英语原文外，还要明白晓畅，符合汉语商务文献的语言规范和行为规范的要求，也就是说，译文要像汉语里商界人士所说的行话。忠实与通顺二者相互依存，若译文忠实而不通顺，读者就看不懂，也就达不到交易的目的;若通顺而不忠实，脱离原文的内容与风格，则会使商务活动受到阻碍，通顺也就毫无意义。 “准确统一”是指译文要准确传达原文的信息，译文所传递的信息同商务英语原文所传递的信息要保持一致；在翻译过程中，译文采用的译名、概念、术语等都应该保持前后统一，不允许将同一概念或术语随意变换译名。因此，商务英语的翻译应以准确的语言、统一的汉语商务套语加以表达，不得出任何差错，否则会酿成不可挽回的损失。

Part II. Translate the following passages into Chinese. Passage 1 Savings provide one way to take care of financial losses. But savings are not the answer to large losses. The best way to guard against large financial losses is through insurance. Over 4,800 companies in the United States are in the business of providing insurance protection. These businesses are called insurance companies. Because most insurance companies operate on a big scale, they provide a way for large numbers of people to share their losses. Insurance can provide protection against almost any kind of loss. Singers may insure their voices. Photographers may insure their negatives. The owner of a home freezer may insure against food loss in case of a power failure. A business owner can insure his or her place of business. A business owner can also insure against a loss of profits during a shutdown following a fire or damaging accident. Like all private firms, insurance companies must charge enough for protection to pay their operating costs and make a profit. The main factor affecting the price of insurance, however, is the amount of risk involved. The more risk an insurance company assumes for a policyholder, the higher the premium. An insurance company must collect enough money from all its policyholders to pay the claims of those who have
