              At the invitation of President Milos Zeman, Xi paid his first state visit to the Czech Republic as the Chinese President on March 28th to 30th before his departure for the United Sates for World Nuclear Security Summit.

              Czech is famous for picturesque landscape, rich cultural heritage and hardworking people. The whole world, China included, is deeply impressed by the Bohemian(波西米亚) culture with the Ultava River. The Czech Republic is an attractive destination to Chinese tourists, who make a record number of more than 300,000 visits in 2015, making tourism a bright spot in China-Czech cooperation. Krtek is the first foreign cartoon series introduced to China from Czech, which is loved with other foreign ones, such as Snow-white, Slam Dunk and Mickey-mouse. The cute, warm-hearted and brave little creature is popular with Chinese people. Milan Kundera, the author of The Unbearable Lightness of Being, was born in the second city of Czech, Brno, after the capital Prague.

              The Czech Republic is one of the first countries to recognize and set diplomatic relations with the PRC. Since the establishment of diplomatic ties sixty seven years ago, the traditional friendship between the two countries has gone from strength to strength. In recent years, China-Czech relations have entered a period of rapid growth. For many years in a row, China has been the largest trading partner of the Czech Republic outside the European Union. At the end of 2015, the two governments signed an agreement on jointly promoting “Belt and Road” initiative, which created even wider prospects for exchange and cooperation in all fields.

                 "We believe President Xiˈs visit is a milestone event in our bilateral relationship and we aim to build a strategic partnership in the 21st century, with focus on shaping the multi-polar world," said Vojtech Filip, Deputy Chairman of the Chamber of Deputies of the Parliament of the Czech Republic. This is Xiˈs first visit to the Central-Eastern Europe (CEE) region since he took office in 2013.Many officials and experts in China also believe this historic visit will usher in a new stage in China-Czech relations in particular, as well as China-CEE relations in general.

              The sharing economy has grown in recent years to include everything from apartmentˈ sharing to car sharing to community tool sharing. Since 2009, a new form of sharing economy has been emerging in neighborhoods throughout the US and around the world-Little Free Library. The libraries are boxes placed in neighborhoods from which residents can withdraw and deposit books. Little Free Libraries come in all shapes and sizes. Some libraries also have themes, focusing on books for children, adults, or tour guides.
              In 2009. Tod Bol built the first Little Free Library as a gift to his mother, who was a devoted reader. When he saw the people of his community gathering around it, exchanging conversation as well as books, he knew he wanted to take his simple idea further. "I think Little Free Libraries open the door to conversations we want to have with each other," Bol said. .
              Since then, his idea has become a movement, spreading from state to state and country to country. According to Little FreeLibrary.org, there are now 18,000 0f the little structures around the world, located in each of the 50 US states and 70 countries in Europe, Africa and Asia.
              The Internet has helped to spread Little Free Libraries. But an Atlantic article says the little, structures serve as a cure for a world of e-reader downloads . The little wooden boxes are refreshingly physical and human. For many people, the sense of discovery is Little Free Librariesˈ main appeal. "A  girl walking home from school might pick up a graphic novel that gets her excited about reading; a man on his way to the bus stop might find a volume of poetry that changes his outlook on life," says the Atlantic article. "Every book is a potential source of inspiration "

            • 3． Would you like to be an actor, but aren’t the right age or physical type for the part? Don’t give up: there may be a place for you in the world of voice-acting.
              Twenty-year-old Rickey Collins brings Tucker Foley to life in the cartoon Danny Phantom. In addition to many appearances on television and in movies, Rickey is a voice-over actor, someone we hear but don’t see. Rickey has acted since he was 6, both on and off camera. After school, his grandmother-- a manager and acting coach--helped him develop his skills by doing voice exercises and reading aloud.
              Voice-over actors do many kinds of acting. They are the voices of cartoon characters on television, in movies and video games, and for communicating toys. In films, they replace the foreign language conversation with English version. They create crowd noises, make commercials, act in radio plays, and record telephone instructions and public announcements. They read books on tape and even record museum tours.
              Like other actors, voice-over actors need to understand scripts, interpret characters, and breathe correctly. They have to master voice techniques, such as pacing, volume, and range. Sometimes they use their normal voices; other times they change their voices to create different characters or noises. Rickey receives his Danny Phantom scripts only a few days before he tapes each episode(集). He writes helpful notes on the script to guide himself on speaking his part.
              Rickey practices, then tapes at the recording studio. He and the other cast members sit in a soundproof booth, acting out their characters as they read their lines into the microphones. “The cartoon gets created after we record the words, so we have to imagine everything in our mind,” says Rickey. Later, the recorded words, music, and sound effects are combined with the cartoon art to create the cartoon we enjoy on TV. Sound interesting? Maybe you can have a “voice” in acting after all!

            • 4． After having worked in the University of Maryland for three years，I got a job offer from another university---Lynn University．I left my letter of offer on my present boss's desk，turned around，and closed the door quietly．I was expecting a call from my boss saying congratulations，which would show her approval of my leaving．

              When I left her office，I called Lynn University and told them that I was going to get a 10% pay raise．They had to give me 10% more than their original pay offer in order for me to accept the job．The new boss told me that he was willing to give me more，but I would feel very bad working at this university with such a high pay．I would win a battle，but I would lose a war．He said，"The problem is that your colleague will earn less than you，so you will feel guilty（内疚）and uncomfortable．But，I can still give you 5% more than the original offer．"
              I delivered this massage to my present boss，and she told me that she would give me another 5% pay raise if I promised to refuse this new job offer．On top of that，she would strongly support my early promotion（晋升）from assistant professor to associate professor．According to the university policy，you must take at least 6years to get promoted．That was my third year of employment at this university．After refusing the new job offer，I finally enjoyed both a pay raise and early promotion．

              25．Why did the new boss agree to another 5% raise when Nicholas asked for 10% the next day？    
              A．He did not have the right to make such a big pay offer．

            • 7． We regularly hear how important consumer spending is for the economy．The story goes like this：the more consumers spend，the more money circulates in the economy，which contributes to healthy job growth and profits．Keynes，a British economist，went as far as to say that individuals saving their money may actually be hurting the economy．Sounds troubling，doesn't it？
              Fear not．You aren't actually hutting anyone else by saving money．Strong economic growth only comes from one place：savings．Not consumption．In fact，economic activity should not be mistaken for economic growth．For example，somebody takes their money，walks into a store，and purchases goods．The store increases its revenue．
              But what happens to all of those goods and services that people have chosen not to consume by saving their money？Simple：Other people are allowed to consume them．Think of it this way：When you lend out your savings，you are actually saying，"Here，I am not going to consume right now，so why don't you？"Banks simply play the middleman：they collect lots of people's savings and then lend out lots of funds．
              It takes an unbelievable amount of goods and services to construct a building．It takes food，shelter，and entertainment for all of the workers，as well．Without savings，it is quite impossible to finance such a construction．The coordination（协调）between savings and consumption is a necessary basis for sound economic growth．This coordination is also why consumer lending （say，to borrow a big sum of money to buy a car） is not productive，in a strict sense．It doesn't increase the net （净的） amount of wealth of an economy．Those savings could have been used to construct，say，factory equipment．
              None of this means consumption and spending are"bad"things．They simply do not make us wealthier．Alter all，the final goal of production and savings is to consume．But to say that consumption is the engine of economic growth is to put the cart before the horse．Or，to rephrase：the consumption of wealth can never make you wealthier．Happier，perhaps．Wealthier，no．

              Now，it's important for the managers in a company to understand what their customers want if they are going to develop effective marketing strategies．（72）     One way at supermarkets，for example，is to interview customers while they are doing their shopping．（73）    This provides information on which to base future marketing strategies．It's also quite normal for top managers from department stores to spend a day or two each month visiting stores and mixing freely with the public，as if they were ordinary customers，to get an idea of how customers act．
              Another way to get information from customers is to give them something．（74）     As well as being a good way of attracting customers into the restaurants to spend their money，it also allows the managers to get at feel of where to attract customers and which age group to attract
              Another strategy used at some well-known parks such as Disneyland is for top managers to spend at least one day in their work，touring the park dressed as Mickey Mouse or something like that．（75）

            • 9． A．Don't assume that the sticker price is the purchase price．
              To get the lowest price，go in with a starting price that's based not on the sticker price but on how much the dealer paid for the vehicle．A reasonable price to start negotiations is either 4 to 8 percent over what the dealer paid or the CR Wholesale Price，depending on the demand for the model．
              B．Do your homework．
              Thoroughly research your choices．Read a variety of reviews．Check the reliability，safety，fuel economy，and pricing of any models you're considering．And don't wait until the day you plan to buy to test drive the vehicles．If you have a trade-in，know its approximate worth．That will depend on the vehicle's age，condition，mileage，and equipment，as well as where you trade it in．
              C．Negotiate one thing at one time．
                      Make clear that you want the lowest possible mark-up over your starting price．Add that you intend to visit other dealerships selling the same vehicle and will buy from the dealer with the best price．Only after you've settled on the price should you discuss financing，leasing，or a trade-in，as necessary．Negotiate each item individually．Remember，you're in charge and can leave at any time．Heading for the door can sometimes jump-start a slow-moving negotiation or bring a lower offer．
              D．Don't pay for extras you don't need．
                      Don't accept those unnecessary services and fees．If the items are on the bill of sale，put a line through them．Vehicle bodies are already coated to protect against rust．And CR reliability survey show that rust is not a major problem with modern cars．You can treat upholstery and apply paint protectant yourself with good off-the-shelf products．You can do your own VN etching with a kit that costs about $25．
              E．Other costs．
              In addition to the vehicle price，you need to consider other costs，including：Sales tax； Registration fees； Insurance premiums Taxes and registration fees can increase your out-of-pocket cost by as much as 10 percent or more，and driving a car that's worth more than your current one will cost more to insure．Be sure to check with your insurance agent or get insurance quotes online so you understand what you're getting into．
              F．Arrange financing in advance．
              Compare interest rates at several banks，credit unions，and loan organizations before checking the dealer's rates．If pre-approved for a loan（贷款），you can keep financial arrangements out of the negotiations．Automakers may offer attractive financing terms，but make sure you qualify for them．
               
              请结合以上建议，与下面的情形进行匹配．
              46．Many dealerships prey on the unprepared．Going into a showroom"cold"--without having gathered key facts and preliminary（初步的） pricing figures--gives the salesperson too much control over the buying process．    
              47．The dealer invoice price is commonly available on Web sites and in pricing guides．But the invoice price isn't necessarily what the dealer paid．There are often behind-the-scenes bonuses（幕后红利），such as dealer incentives（奖励） and holdbacks，that give the dealer more profit margin（空间）．    
              48．Salespeople like to mix financing，leasing，and trade-in negotiations together，often asking you to negotiate around a monthly payment figure．This tactic（策略） gives the dealer more latitude to offer you a favorable figure in one area while inflating（抬高）figures in another．    
              49．The salesperson may try to sign you up for a higher interest rate than you could get elsewhere．    
              50．Dealers often try to sellyou extras such as rust proofing，fabric protection，and paint protection or push etching your Vehicle Identification Number on windows to deter thieves．    ．

              Sophisticated new machines have been developed to enable physicians to scan body organs with a clarity never before possible．One technique involves the use of ultrasound-sound waves beyond the frequencies that human beings can hear-to produce images．Others use computers to capture and analyze images produced by X-rays or magnetic fields．These machines are extremely expensive：The price of a single machine can exceed one million dollars．
              78．    
              New technologies also mean new personnel．Physicians，nurses and orderlies can no longer staff a hospital alone．Hospitals now require a bewildering number of technical specialists to administer new tests and operate advanced medical equipment．
              79．    
              Physicians and hospitals also must buy malpractice insurance to protect themselves should they be sued for negligence by patients who feel they have been mistreated or have received inadequate care．The rates for this insurance have been raised very steeply in the last ten years，as patients have become more medically knowledgeable，and as juries sometimes awarded very large amounts of money to injured patients．
