FDI 国家经济发展中，投资很重要，尤其是FDI（Foreign Direct Investment，外国直接投资）。 FDI是现代的资本国际化的主要形式之一，中国已经超过美国，成为全球最大外国直接投资目的。跨国公司是FDI的主要形式。 我们来看2个例句： As the earliest open city among the coastal cities and one of the 15 vice-province cities, FDI of Qingdao is around tops in whole China. 青岛作为中国最早的沿海开放城市和15个副省级城市之一，在吸收FDI方面走在全国前列。 Retailing is one of the last big sectors of the Indian economy to open up to FDI. 零售业是印度经济中对外资开放的最后一大领域。 20节BEC初级、中级、高级课程 学前测试、词汇课、各级别专项课 还有考前冲刺 点击立即免费听>> 你适合考哪个级别？BEC好不好学 2个月后考试是否能顺利通过 一听即知！ 0元试学BEC初级中级高级课程 点击立即免费试学>> 点击立即免费试学>>> 祝大家顺利拿证~

用是有限的，记住单词这个步骤和习题结合在一起。因为学会一个单词有两个步骤。第一个是眼睛识别，也就是说，在阅读中，你看到一个单词，你就能认出它。这就需要完成大量的阅读练习，首先要熟悉题型，其次要增加词汇量。这里要强调的一点，单词是很容易忘掉的。 所以，每隔一段时间一定要复习。还有一点要补充的是，背诵英语文章对那些刚刚开始学习托福或者还有更多时间准备的学生也有很大的帮助。这对他们练习记忆也很有帮助。 说到背单词，很多同学经常说，现在的记忆不好，说自己小学初中的记忆有多好。不，人们只是在寻找理由。如果你不背单词，你怎么准备托福呢?无论你的记忆力是好是坏，从今天开始，每天记住10个单词。我们的目标是回到我们小时候什么都不知道的时候能够写下单词的状态。 以上就是小编给大家分享的托福口语高分备考方法，希望可以给大家学习带来帮助。 如果您对英语学习感兴趣，想要深入学习，可以了解沪江网校精品课程，量身定制高效实用的个性化学习方案，专属督导全程伴学。扫一扫领200畅学卡

CLI CLI（Cost of Living Index，生活费用指数）是指在不同时点，消费者为达到某一效用（或者福利、生活标准）水平所需要的最小支出之比。 生活费用指数理论认为，消费者的行为是理性的，在价格发生变化的情况下，消费者会调整自己的消费行为和消费模式，达到消费行为的最一优化。 我们来看2个例句： Only Zips where the cost of living index was between 100 and 200 were considered.  我们只考虑生活费指数在100和200之间的邮政区域。 His high cost of living index incurred a prosecutor's suspicion.  他的高生活消费指数招致了一名检察官的怀疑。 20节BEC初级、中级、高级课程 学前测试、词汇课、各级别专项课 还有考前冲刺 点击立即免费听>> 你适合考哪个级别？BEC好不好学 2个月后考试是否能顺利通过 一听即知！ 0元试学BEC初级中级高级课程 点击立即免费试学>> 点击立即免费试学>>> 祝大家顺利拿证

2024年12月英语四级考试在即，同学们要认真备考哦。今天为大家带来的是2024年12月英语四级阅读理解模拟：大学专业选择，一起来看看吧。 2024年12月英语四级阅读理解模拟：大学专业选择 One of the bitterest and most time-worm debates in student union bars up and down the country is resolved as academic research confirms that in financial terms at least, arts degrees are a complete waste of time.Getting through university boosts students’earnings by 25%, on a weighted average, or $220,000 over theirlifetime, according to Professor Ian Walker of Warwick University-but if they study Shakespeare or the peasants’revolt instead of anatomy of contract law, those gains are likely to be completely wiped out. The government is about to allow universities to charge students up to $3,000 a year for their degrees, arguing that it’s a small price to pay compared with the financial rewards graduates reap later in life. But Prof. Walker’s research shows there are sharp variations in returns according to which subject a student takes. Law, medicine and economics or business are the most lucrative choices, making their average earnings 25% higher, according to the article, published in the office for national statistics’monthly journal. Scientists get 10-15% extra. At the bottom of the list are arts subjects, which make only a “small ”differenceto earnings- a small negative one, in fact. Just ahead are degrees in education-which leave hard pressed teachers anaverage of 5% better off a year than if they had left school at 18. “it’s hard to resist the conclusion that what students learn does matter a lot; and some subject areas givemore modest financial returns than others,” Prof. Walker said. As an economist, he was quick to point outthat students might gain non-financial returns from arts degrees:”Studying economics might be very dull, forexample, and studying post-modernism might be a lot of fun.” 练习题： Choose correct answers to the question: 1.What is the best title for the passage? A.Professor Walker’s Research B.How to Make Big Money. C.Differences Between Science and Arts Degrees. D.Studying Arts Has Negative Financial Outcome. 2.Universities charge students a rather high tuition mainly because_____ provide the students with very prosperous subjects to learn assume that their graduates can earn much more than they had paid don’t get financial support from the government need much revenue to support the educational expenses 3.The word “lucrative”(Line 1, Para. 4) most probably means _____ le ve able le 4.Law, medical and business graduates could earn 25% more than ______ ion graduates graduates who had not studied at the university average income 5.We can safely conclude that the author ______ s arts degrees as meaningless this result disappointing and unfair the students to think twice before they decide what to learn in college that arts degrees are still rewarding despite its scarce financial returns 参考答案： 1.[D] 主旨大意题。本文为Walker教授的研究成果，旨在说明不同专业的毕业生有不同的经济回报，并非要传授发财心得或者比较文理科的异同。文章首句即为本题解题关键，故D正确。 2.[B] 事实细节题。定位至第3段第1句。本文只有这一句与收取学费有关，后一个分句即前一个分句的理由，抓住其中隐含的因果关系就不难找到正确答案。 3.[C] 词义理解题。通过下文数据earnings 25% higher和get 10-15% extra可以推测lucrative大意应为“给人带来丰厚收入的”,故选C。 4.[C] 事实细节题。第4段中出现了几个比较数字，考题要求找到此段首句提到的收人增加25%的参照点。第2段第1句中的Getting through university 表明这类学生收人增加25%的参照对象是没读大学的人，且从第4段第3句中的the list和第4句即可以确定这一段是在比较大学毕业与18岁毕业(即没读大学)收入的不同，因此C正确。 5.[D] 推理判断题。结论往往出现在文章结尾,要想答对此题,一定要仔细体会本文末句。本文虽然重点讨论文科没有经济效益，但是作者并没有做出主观判断，故A、B、C都不正确，而作者在文章最后讲到了人文学科虽然经济效益不佳但学习过程更有趣，故D符合作者意思。 以上就是关于“2024年12月英语四级阅读理解模拟：大学专业选择”的全部内容啦，祝同学们考试顺利。

理了2024年12月英语四级阅读理解模拟：泰国大象的生存危机，一起来看看吧。 2024年12月英语四级阅读理解模拟：泰国大象的生存危机 For centuries, in the countries of south and Southeast Asia the elephant has been an intimate part of the culture, economy and religion, and nowhere more so than in Thailand. Unlike its African cousin, the Asian elephant is easily domesticated (驯化). The rare so-called white elephants have actually lent the authority of kingship to its rulers and until the 1920s the national flag was a white elephant on a red background.To the early Western visitors the country's romantic name was “Land of the White Elephant”. Today, however, the story is very different. Out of work and out of land, the Thai elephant struggles for survival in a nation that no longer needs it. The elephant has found itself more or less abandoned by previous owners who have moved on to a different economic world and a westernized society. And while the elephant's problems began many years ago, now it rates a very low national priority. How this reversal from national icon (圣像) to neglected animal came about is a tale of worsening environmental and the changing lives of the Thais themselves. According to Richard Lair, Thailand’s experts on the Asian elephant and author of the report Gone Astray, at the turn of the century there may well have beenas many as 100,000 domestic elephants in the country. In the north of Thailand alone it was estimated that more than 20,000 elephants were employed in transport, 1,000 of them alone on the road between the cities of Chiang Mai and Chiang Saen. This was at a time when 90 per cent of Thailand was still forest—a habitat (栖息地) that not only supported the animals but also made them necessary to carry goods and people. Nothing ploughs through dense forest better than a massive but sure-footed elephant. By 1950 the elephant population had dropped to a still substantial 13,397, but today there are probably nomore than 3,800, with another 1,350 roaming free in the national parks. But now, Thailand’s forest coversonly 20 per cent of the land. This deforestation (采伐森林) is the central point of the elephant's difficult situation, for it has effectively put the animals out of work. This century, as the road network grew, so the elephant's role as a beast of burden declined. 练习题： Choose correct answers to the question: 1. What can we know about African elephants from the passage? A. It is easy to tame them. B. It is hard to tame them. C. They are living a better life than Asian elephants. D. Their fate is quite similar to that of Asian elephants. 2. Thailand was once called “Land of the White Elephant” because_______. A. white elephant is rarely seen and thus very special B. white elephant was a national symbol until the 1920s C. white elephant has helped kings to gain the ruling authority D. this name was so romantic that it was popular among visitors 3. Why is the Thai elephant “out of work”, according to the author? A. Because the elephants are no longer useful to their owners. B. Because their owners are westernized and neglect them. C. Because the government pays little attention to the problem. D. Because there are too many elephants and too few jobs. 4. Which of the following statements is true about the elephant population at various times? A. There were 100,000 tamed elephants at the turn of the century. B. 20,000 elephants were employed in transport in Thailand at the turn of the century. C. By 1950 the elephant population in Thailand has been quite small. D. Today the elephant population is estimated at 5,150. 5. The passage is most probably from_______. A. a travel magazine B. a history book C. a research report D. an official announcement 参考答案： 1.[B] 事实细节题。本题考查对比处。根据文章第l段第3句：和非洲象不同，亚洲象容易驯养，言下之意就是：非洲象不易驯养。答案中用tame替代原文的domesticate，意思相同。选项A与原文意思正好相反;选项C，D原文根本未提到。 2.[B] 推理判断题。根据文章第l段第4句中的“until the 1920s the national flag was a white elephant on a red background.”可知当时白

Unemployment Rate 社会人最关注的的经济指标大概就是Unemployment Rate（失业率）了。 Unemployment Rat可以用来判断一定时期内全部劳动人口的就业情况。它可以适当反应经济发展，比如这几年大环境不景气，考公一考研的人数明显增多，2020年考研人数怒增50万就是很明显的例子。 我们来看2个例句： He said the unemployment rate remains "unacceptably high" and that faster growth is needed to replace jobs lost in the economic downturn. 他说，失业率之高依然“不可接受”，需要加快增长速度已弥补在经济下滑期间失去的工作岗位。 The U. K. unemployment rate, surprisingly, is only slightly above the German rate. 令人惊讶的是，英国的失业率只比德国高一点点。 20节BEC初级、中级、高级课程 学前测试、词汇课、各级别专项课 还有考前冲刺 点击立即免费听>> 你适合考哪个级别？BEC好不好学 2个月后考试是否能顺利通过 一听即知！ 0元试学BEC初级中级高级课程 点击立即免费试学>> 点击立即免费试学>>> 祝大家顺利拿证
