问题 Could you tell us what improvements you think technology is bringing to the working lives of people in your country? Could you tell us what you think have been the most significant changes recently in work practices in China?

选项

答案Suggested answers: a.The IT revolution has also provided opportunities for Chinese corporations to go global. In the near future, the Chinese firms will manufacture more effectively offshore in other countries, for cost benefits, or for more precise targeting within international markets. b.As in all developed countries, the irreversible tide of information technology is evident in China, where a wave of changes to the industrial and social fabric of the country has generally been considered as benign. The growth of the Internet is providing unexpected business opportunities for firms large and small. c.As elsewhere, the Internet in China is grasped enthusiastically as an enlightening and enabling tool for disseminating information, not just in conventional office or business situations but also in places like convenience stores (which are much more abundant in big cities like Beijing), where Internet terminals are provided to create a multi-function platform for banking, entertainment, gaming and e-mailing as well as shopping. d.Digital television has become a uniting force for communication and broadcasting systems, leading to dynamic links with mobile communications. Multimedia television services such as Sonnet from Sony, accessible with multimedia handsets, are capable of down loading and sending compressed video as well as e-mailing and texting. e.New Technology has made more jobs available to disabled personal assistants. My daily to-do list usually runs to 20 to 30 tasks. I maintain Fiona’s diary, take notes on my laptop, and prepare the agenda and note-take for the monthly team meeting. I deal with invoices and expenses on a spreadsheet, holiday forms for 29 people, and e-mails. f.Modem technology means that disabled secretaries can do practically all office tasks. I use a laptop and a computer with software, which magnifies text and a Braille labeling gun. Cracker, the working dog, stays by my side in the office, goes with me at lunchtime when I buy a sandwich, and accompanies me to the gym four times a week. Prejudice against employing disabled people is illegal, but they are still seven times more likely than non-disabled people to be unemployed. g.In the past, advertising has been hard to track and hard to make accountable. Now, responses are instantaneous, and advertising has become a dialogue with the consumer. A few words plus Web ads means a big payoff. Each day on Google, hundreds of thousands of times an hour, Web surfers who type in search terms like“printer paper”end up clicking on paid links to sites like Staples. Com—advertisers that have bid to have their names appear in innocuous, no-frills text lists at’ the side of the search results page. The advertiser pays only when the prospective customer actually clicks on the ad link.
