答案Interviewer: Well, Zhang Hong and Wang Kun, the last part of this speaking test is a discussion task. Your discussion topic is on this task card. You have about 30 seconds to read it carefully. After you have read the task, you will have a discussion on the given topic. Your discussion time is around three minutes. OK? Now read your task card. (30 seconds later) Well, can you start your discussion now? I’m going to listen to you and then ask you to stop at the end of three minutes. Wang Kun: Well, I think we should make some basic guidelines to smart investing. We should have clear goals. We will decide how many years we will invest for, what our needs will be in the future based on the condition of our company. And having realistic expectations is very important, you know, there is a saying "He who wishes to be rich in a day will be hanged in a year. " Zhang Hong: I agree with you. And we should understand the range of possibilities. There is a diversified portfolio: One with a mix of stocks, mutual funds, bonds, and cash. Each of these products has different risks associated with them and also different potential rewards. Understand them before we buy, so there won’t be any big surprises later. Wang Kun: Yes, you are right. But in my opinion, investing money in the stock market is not the safest way in the world to make more money. There is no guarantee that the company will do well, and that the stock will go up. Zhang Hong: I can’t agree more. The stock may go up or down for a number of very complex reasons. Everyone wants the stock market to go up, but sometimes even when a company does well the stock may go down. This is usually true for all stocks. The stock market is a very interesting and complex part of the business world. Wang Kun: But that doesn’t mean we could not invest in the stock. If we do, we’d better stay in for the long term and we have to weather the storm and we should not be too greedy. Zhang Hong: Yes, you are right. We can also invest in Internet, which can help us to promote or sell products. Wang Kun: Good idea. Similarly we can invest in new technology to explore new markets. Although we cannot get quick profit, it is for our sustained development. Interviewer: Do you think it is better to invest in many different areas, or in only one. Zhang Hong: I prefer to invest in many fields. If one or two fields have a hiccup, your investment can still grow in overall value. Wang Kun: I agree with Zhang Hong, if we invest all money in one area, once it hits the skids, we’ll suffer a lot. Interviewer: Why will you invest in the Internet? Wang Kun: In 2005, the hottest word of Chinese business is absolutely the Internet. It is well known, the number of people on internet is increasing sharply. At present, the Chinese population on internet has achieved 103 million, which ranks the second in the world. And that number will be 140 million, which is approximately 4 times of 2001. At the same time, the investment, the purchase, the business, the technology, the pattern, the talents and the resources, all of these are involved with the internet. The income of Chinese Internet market is increasing rapidly, and a lot of foreign Internet companies are entering into China. So the second tide of Chinese Internet is coming, we can’t lose the opportunity. Zhang Hong: That’s right. Although the personal consumption is the most part of Chinese Internet market, it will be changed, because the E-business is a big market in it. And we can order on Internet, without the dealer. According to the regulations of WTO, the foreign bank can enter Chinese financial market, so the credit card will be more prevalent, especially in the business between the companies. So Business on Internet will be developing quickly, we should catch the chance. Interviewer: Thank you, Zhang Hong and Wang Kun. That is the end of the speaking test.
