29、ive-Thru” restaurant in our area. If allowed to go ahead, their proposal will bring significant and unwelcome changes to our community. While there are numerous reasons to object to McDonalds in general, there are a number of specific issues relevant to this planning application. Traffic and Safety

30、While the government and local authorities are being encouraged to make decisions that reduce traffic levels and the dependence on car use, it is ironic that McDonalds expansion plans revolve around “Drive-Thrus”.

31、els in our already busy area. The new traffic created will cause nuisance to existing traffic and increase the danger of accidents for pedestrians.

32、The proposal includes very long opening hours (7 am-11 pm, 7 days a week), and will result in noise and disturbances at all hours for local residents.

33、 vermin. Community and Local Business Neon lights, tacky signs and adverts will change the character of the area and may represent the start of an unwelcome trend in our locality. Existing local businesses will lose trade to multinationals that will drain the life-blood from our community. While McD

Choose the best answer for each statement or question from the four choices marked A, B, C and D, and mark the correspondi

46、ng letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line throw the center. Passage One There are three basic methods by which companies can compete in foreign markets: exporting, licensing and other contractual agreements, and investment. Exporting is limited to physical goods. International freight forward

47、ers, banks, and other specialists can assist companies wishing to export by handling many of the details regarding documentation and financing. Exporting is often the way a company initially becomes involved in international trade. Companies can gain valuable experience in international markets thro

48、ugh exporting without being exposed to large capital losses. International licensing is another way for domestic companies to compete internationally. Under an international licensing agreement, domestic companies provide foreign companies with rights to some of their intangible assets, such as thei

49、r patents, trade secrets, know-how, trademarks, or even their company name and logo. Domestic companies often provide some type of technical assistance to make sure the licensed properties are used properly. Similar contractual agreements may include franchising, technical agreements, service or man

50、agement contracts, and other variations. Licensing and other contractual agreements typically involve the transfer of technology or human skills. Characteristically there is no equity investment by the international company in such agreements. Licensing and other contractual agreements can offer sev

51、eral advantages over or alternatives to exporting. They can prevent such import barriers as tariffs and quotas, since only intangible assets and services are being exchanged. In some cases a countrys currency may experience a prolonged devaluation, making exports no longer profitable. Licensing agre

52、ements can overcome some of the risks associated with such currency fluctuations. There is also less of a political risk with licensing, which avoids the risks associated with expropriation (沒收) of the international companys investment by the host countrys government. Licensing can also provide the

53、host country with much-desired technology transfer, so that its government is likely to view such agreements as beneficial. Investment is the third way in which companies can compete in other countries. Typically, foreign direct investment involves ownership by an international company of a manufact

54、uring plant or other production facility in a target country. Investments may be sole ventures; or they may be joint ventures. Investment may be in a new establishment, or it may involve the acquisition of an existing enterprise. International companies generally make direct investments in foreign c

55、ountries for one of the three reasons. One reason is to obtain raw materials from the host country. Most of the extracted resource from the host country is either exported back to the international companys home country for use in manufacturing there, or sold on the world market. A second reason is

56、to source products at a lower cost. Sourcing investors establish manufacturing or assembly operations in a foreign country for the purpose of obtaining components or finished goods more cheaply than they could in their home country. These components or finished goods are then exported back to the in

57、vestors home country or shipped to other countries. The third and most prevalent reason is to penetrate local markets and compete internationally. As noted above, international companies use direct investment to establish a production base in another country for the purpose of competing in that coun

58、trys marketplace. 51. Which of the following is the advantage of exporting? A. Many specialists can assist exporters to handle the details in exporting. B. Exporting is the best way for exporters to be fully involved in international business. C. Companies would be less likely to lose large capital

59、in international markets. D. It is unnecessary for exporters to deal with an entity in the target country. 52. Under an international licensing agreement, domestic companies provide foreign companies with _. A. sound fundsB. existing market C. components or finished productsD. technical assistance a

60、nd human skills 53. What benefit do licensing and other contractual agreements bring about? A. They bring fewer political risks for the local government. B. There is no equity investment in such agreements. C. They can eliminate some import barriers. D. Exporters wont face currency fluctuations with
