21、far more explicitly than the Ricardo model on the idea that a general equilibrium is established in the economies, in which the equilibria in the various sub-markets are, (in principle), inter-related: if the balance shifts in one sub-market, this affects the balance in other sub-markets. explicitly

22、=clearly意译：这个模型比李嘉图的模型更加具体，因为在经济体中建立了一般均衡的概念，原则上，分市场的均衡是相互联系的：如果一个分市场的均衡发生改变，就会影响其他分市场的均衡。However, in contrast to Ricardo's model, there are simultaneous changes on the markets in the factors of production as a result of the emphasis on general equilibrium.factors of production 生产要素意译：然而，HOS模型和李

23、嘉图模型不同的是，由于强调一般均衡，认为生产要素在市场上会同时发生改变。A fundamental criticism of the HOS model was that it assumes that the sectors can be arranged in order of capital-intensity and that this arrangement is universal, i.e. the same in all countries. 对于HOS模型的基本批判是其假设不同部门是按照资本密集的顺序划分的，而且这种划分具有普遍性，即对于所有国家都一样。It should b

24、e clear that if, (as some people think), factor reversal is fairly widespread, there is essentially no foundation for the idea that hitherto prevailed in trade theory, namely that countries have a comparative cost advantage by nature, (i.e. because of prevailing conditions of supply,) in a range of

25、goods and services which can be specifically and objectively specified in a universal manner. There is essentially no foundation for the idea that.ex. There is essentially no foundation for the idea that paper books will eventually be replaced by e-books. .idea that hitherto prevailed in., namely th

26、at.ex. .idea that hitherto prevailed in China, namely that women are inclined to face prejudice when hunting jobs.应该弄清楚一点，如果像有人认为的那样，要素反向广泛存在，那么这种国际贸易理论的流行观点就毫无根基即因为供应环境不同，对于那些可以被明确客观划分为不同要素密集型产品的货物和服务来说，每一个国家都会有天然的比较成本优势。The idea is that it is not so much national factors ( or, if you like, locatio

27、nal factors ) that explain in which goods a strong competitive position can be developed, but rather factors relating to specific sectors or companies. 基本观点是，产品的竞争能力的强弱并不由国家因素，或者说地区要素决定，而是由国家的特定行业或公司水平决定。If at that stage another supplier, say Thailand, wants to penetrate the market, the only way to

28、achieve it is by launching production in that country straight away on a massive scale of at least 600,000 units because it is only if production exceeds 600,000 units that Thailand can undercut Japans unit production costs for 875, 000 calculators ( we assume that the average cost curve in both cou

29、ntries is constantly falling) .如果这时另一供应商，比如泰国，想在这时候打入该市场，仅有的办法是立即在本国开始大量生产，生产规模至少达到600000台，因为只有生产规模超过600000台，泰国才能比日本生产875000台计算器的成本低（假设两国平均成本曲线不断下降）。If the industry were to be transferred in this way, then in view of the size of the market it is clear that Japan will also loose the remaining product

30、ion to Thailand, which produces more cheaply and will eventually be producing 1,000,000 units.如果行业按照这个思路转变转变，考虑到该产业的市场规模，如本也会把剩余生产量转给泰国，计算器的生产成本更加低，产量最终超过1000000台。UINT 2The import structure is quite similar to the export structure, and in the flow of international trade, imports move toward a balanc

31、e with export.进口和出口结构十分类似，在国际贸易流动中，进口和出口推动了贸易均衡。The import merchant today is represented by the import trading company( that specializes in the products it imports) and their particular distribution patterns.如今的进口商，大多是专门经营进口货物、拥有特定经销模式的进口贸易The imort structure is quite similar to the export structure

32、, and in the flow of international trade, imports move toward a balance with export.进口和出口结构十分类似，在国际贸易流动中，进口和出口推动了贸易均衡。There are of two types: (1) commission houses that strictly serve as agents for local consumers buying abroad and making all delivery arrangements but assuming no financial responsib

33、ility, and (2) resident representatives of foreign exporters performing the selling and distributing function for the foreign exporters.他们分为两类：（1）严格履行代理业务的代理行，他们只为当地消费者进行国外采购、安排货物运输，但不承担任何财务责任；（2）外国出口商在当地的代表，为外国出口商销售和派送产品。Many benefits arise from the latter in the marketing, distribution, and servic

Royalty 许可费、特许使用权费Lum

36、p sum 一次付清A running royalty 浮动许可费这种报酬，又叫许可费，包括一次付清的总费用、浮动费用（基于产量多少而浮动的许可费）或两者组合的费用。Companies frequently license their patents, trademarks, copyrights, and know-how to a foreign company 【that then manufactures and sells products based on the technology in a country or group of countries ( authorized

37、by the licensing agreement)】. What dose “technology” mean in this sentence?企业通常将自己的专利、商标、版权和专有技术授予国外企业，允许其在当地或其他国家，制造和销售基于这些技术的产品。A technology licensing agreement usually enables a firm to enter a foreign market quickly, yet it poses fewer financial and legal risks than owning and operating a foreig

38、n manufacturing facility or participating in an overseas joint venture. enable sb. to do sth.pose a threat/risk/danger 带来、引起、造成技术许可洗衣通常能够使企业迅速进入国外市场，同时相比建立国外生产基地和参与海外合资经营，技术许可的财务和法律风险更低Licensing also permits firms to overcome many of the tariff and non-tariff barriers (that frequently hamper the exp

41、dering the licensing of technology, it is important to remember that foreign licensees may attempt to use the licensed technology to manufacture products that are marketed in the exporters market or third countries in direct competition with the licenser or its other licensees. 考虑技术许可时需要记住的是，国外被许可人可

42、能试图使用转让的技术生产产品并在出口商的市场或在第三方国家销售，跟许可人和其他被许可人直接竞争In many instances, licensers may wish to impose territorial restrictions on their foreign licensees, depending on antitrust laws and the licensing laws of the host country.很多情况下，许可人希望依赖东道国的反垄断法或许可证合同法对国外被许可人设定(销售)地域限制Such governments, for example, may p

43、rohibit royalty payments (that exceed a certain rate) or contractual provisions【barring the licensee from exporting products ( manufactured with or embodying the licensed technology) to third countries】.provision 条款比如，这些政府可能会限制超出一定比率的许可费的支付或者是对于禁止被许可人使用被许可技术生产出的产品向第三方国家出口的合同条款加以限制。In many instances

44、licensors should also retain qualified legal counsel in the host country in order to obtain advice on applicable local laws and to receive assistance in securing the foreign governments approval of the agreement.获得： obtain, retain, acquire, earn, gain, procure, get, win, attain, receive大多数情况下，许可人应该在

45、东道国保有合格的法律顾问，通过他们了解当地的适用法律，同时在获取国外政府对于合同的批准的事项上获得其帮助。Moreover, the local partner may bring to the joint venture its knowledge of the customs and tastes of the people, an established distribution network, and valuable business and political contacts.此外，当地合作伙伴对当地居民的习惯和爱好的了解，已经建立的销售网络以及有价值的商业和政治关系都可以给合

46、资企业带来便利。Having local partners also decreases the foreign status of the firm and may provide some protection against discrimination or expropriation, should conditions change.Should conditions change=if conditions should change拥有地方合作伙伴还可以降低企业的外资成分，并且当环境发生变化时可以使企业避免歧视或罚没等情况发生。A loss of effective manag

49、s of the cheaper grade within a class of products as compared with the more expensive variety .For example, a specific rate of 20 a pair on shoes will discourage imports valued at 10 a pair to a greater extent than those valued at 25 a pair. a class of products同类产品 从量税也会限制同种商品中廉价品的进口。例如，20美元一双鞋的从量税会

50、使进口国更多的限制进口一双价值10美元的鞋子而非25美元的鞋。 Compound duties frequently apply to manufactured goods containing raw materials that are on the dutiable list. dutiable list应税名单 复合税通常针对应税名单上的制成品和原材料来征收 In such cases the specific portion of the duty known as a compensatory duty is levied to offset the duty that grant

51、s protection to the raw materials industry , while ad valorem portion of the duty affords protection to the finished goods industry.这种情况下复合税里的从量部分（也叫补偿型关税）的征收就是为了弥补国内生产商对于本国原材料行业的保护；而其中的从价部分则是对成品工业的保护。 In recent decades, specific duties have given way to ad valorem duties in response to worldwide in

52、flation and the growing importance of international trade in manufactures. 让步/取代句式 have given way to .in response to/due to ex. In recent years, traditional business have given way to e-business in response to the rapid development of internet technology. 近几十年，由于国际通货膨胀以及制成品在国际贸易中越来越重要的地位，从量税让步于从价税。

54、非关税壁垒）突显，仍然是的沼泽地难以穿越。 We look first at quantitative trade restrictions, (the more visible kind of non-tariff barrier, )and then offer a brief review of the many other kinds of non-tariff barriers to international trade in goods and services. 我们先来看看贸易数量限制这一越来越明显的非关税壁垒，再来回顾一下国际贸易中货物和服务的其他非贸易壁垒。 Quanti

55、tative trade restrictions are used chiefly to afford protection to domestic producers or to bring about adjustment of a disturbed balance of payments . 贸易数量限制主要用于保护国内的生产者或者调整失衡的国际收支。 A bilateral or multilateral quota tends to minimize pressure by domestic importers upon their own government and to i

56、ncrease cooperation by foreign exporters, thus enhancing the successful operation of the system. 双边或多边配额意在减少双方国内进口商的压力，增加和国外出口商的合作，从而使该机制成功运转。 Complicated and obscure tariff nomenclatures (coupled with ambiguous rules of classification) give customs authorities plenty of opportunity for arbitrary cl

57、assification . 机会句式 give .sbplenty of opportunity for /to 表达某人或某类人因为某个原因而可以（有机会）做某事 ex. The rapid economic development of China gives increasingly large number of teenagers considerable opportunity for higher education. 由于关税属于表达复杂模糊，分类模棱两可，因此海关当局有很多操控海关分类的机会。 Article 6 of the GATT stipulates that tw

58、o criteria must be met for the legitimate(合法的) application of anti-dumping duties by member states: “ sales at less than fair value”( sales abroad at prices lower than in the country of origin) and “ material injury ” to a domestic industry. GATT General Agreement on Tariff & Trade 关贸总协定 GATT第六条规定，成员国在征收反倾销税时，必须达到两大法律标准：一是“售价比公允价值低”（商品在国外的售价比在原产国售价低），二是对
