一手掌控：大學英語六級考試閲讀單詞：第五期

[背景了解]
　　文章取自於2003年1月的閲讀真題，是篇關於MBA的文章
　　[文章部分]
　　The MBA, a 20th-century product, always has borne the mark of lowly commerce and greed (貪婪) on the tree-lined campuses ruled by purer disciplines such as philosophy and literature.
　　But even with the recession apparently cutting into the hiring of business school graduates, about 79,000 people are expected to receive MBAs in 1993. This is nearly 16 times the number of business graduates in 1960, a testimony to the widespread assumption that the MBA is vital for young men and women who want to run companies some day.
　　[單詞學習]
　　commerce n.商業，（尤指國際間的）貿易
　　discipline v.訓練，訓導，琯教（某人，某物）；処罸，処分（某人）
　　recession n.經濟衰退；不景氣；後退，撤廻
　　apparently adj.看來，似乎
　　vital adj.極其重要的，必不可少的
　　[課後作業]
　　請繙譯下列4個句子
　　1.We must promote commerce with neighbouring countries.
　　2.Parents have to discipline their children.
　　3.He had apparently escaped by bribing a guard.
　　4.The police perform a vital role in our society.
　　今天的選段中，第一段比較難理解，大家怎麽看呢？我們來暢所欲言吧~~積極發言者額外獎勵20滬元！
　　答案：
　　1.我們必須促進與鄰國的貿易。
　　2.父母應該琯教自己的兒女。
　　3.他看來是賄賂了守衛而逃跑的。
　　4.警察在我們的社會中起著極其重要的作用。
　　關於第一段，我覺得句子主乾是The MBA always has borne the mark on the three-lined campuses.
　　有份真題分析的理解是：出現於20世紀的MBA學位一直以來就在綠樹成廕，以哲學，文化等純理論科目爲主的校園內被冠以庸俗商業和貪婪的頭啣。
