Business English Reading Courseware;Chapter 2;单元教学目的;本章阅读技巧提示; 定位的技巧是要在定位的地方有：1.如果题目中包含数字，可以成为很好的题眼，因为数字在文章中一般是以阿拉伯数字的形式出现，比较容易寻找，方便快速定位。2. 留意人名、地名、机构名称等专有名词：专有名词都是以大写字母开头，与数字信息一样，它们在文章中显得比较突出，比较容易寻找，方便快速定位。; 3. 留意比较关系：形容词、副词的比较级或最高级，或是表示比较的词语或结构，经常会被作为设题题眼。4. 留意破折号、冒号、括号、引号等特殊标点。5. 留意因果、并列、转折等逻辑关系词：逻辑关系处是快速阅读的重要设题点之一，因此题目中的 because，since， so， therefore， but， while等逻辑关系词语往往可以成为重要的信息定位点之一。; 但需要注意的是，题目可能会对原文中的逻辑关系词语进行替换，查找时要注意。另外，我们还可以利用逻辑关系判断哪些信息是相对重要的信息，哪些信息是相对不重要的信息，从而简化阅读。 ; 三段以上的篇章题从第二段开始定位(起始段落或句子一般不作为细节定位所在)真正细节题答案一般不在意群起始句。难定位的题目从选项中找定位线索，因为选项是从同一个角度来说的。一种情况是考段落或意群主题，定位与预想答案都比较简单。 ; 一种情况是考段落或意群中的特殊语言形式，如让步，负评价和混合评价，对比和比较，如短文中的从句等。最难的一种情况是看不出或至少不能明显看出，考什么内容，总之所考查的似乎与段落主题没有什么直接关系，虽然也会出现与意群或段落主题无关或相反的选项，但其他的选项仍然需要做进一步的判断。;Step One; For the past two decades, the United States has pursued parallel but separate approaches toward deepening bilateral trade relations with countries in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) and the Asia-Pacific region. For the past five years, similar initiatives have been launched with countries in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). In all three regions, the trade pacts build on the precedents established first by the Canada-US Free Trade Agreement (FTA) signed in January 1988, and then the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) signed in December 1992. ; The Canada-US pact sparkeda run of proposals in the late 1980s for bilateral FTAs between the United States and South Korea, Taiwan, the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN), and Australia that resulted in stacks of economic studies but no negotiations. Similarly, the NAFTA catalyzed interest throughout Latin America in securing greater access to the US market and to US capital. Besides the exceptional US FTA with Israel (signed in 1985), no country in the MENA region expressed interest in a similar trade deal with the United States.; In both the LAC and Asia-Pacific regions, proposals for bilateral talks quickly were subm
