JJ牛人說:
第一段主要介紹美國external capital investment,並和德國對比,說德國人的股票投資
主要是在少數幾個 selective公司,而美國人確是short-term 第二段是美國的internal
capital investment
這是一篇比較類似的文章~~並不見得是原文喔~僅參考 ^^
To compete effectively in interna-
tional markets, a nation’s businesses
must sustain investment in intangible as
Line well as physical assets. Although an
(5) enormous pool of investment capital
exists in the United States, the country’s
capital investment practices put United
States companies at a competitive
disadvantage.
(10) United States capital investment
practices, shaped by sporadic and
unpredictable changes in tax policy and
high federal budget deficits, encourage
both underinvestment and overinvest-
(15) ment. For example, United States
companies invest at a low rate in inter-
nal development projects, such as
improving supplier relations, that do not
offer immediate profit, and systemati-
(20) cally invest at a high rate in external
projects, such as corporate takeovers,
that yield immediate profit. Also,
United States companies make too
few linkages among different forms of
(25) investments. Such linkages are impor-
tant because physical assets, such as
factories, may not reach their potential
level of productivity unless companies
make parallel investments in intangible
(30) assets such as employee training and
product redesign. In general, unlike
Japanese and German investment
practices, which focus on companies’
long-term interests, United States
(35) investment practices favor those
forms of investment for which finan-
cial returns are most readily available.
By making minimal investments in
intangible assets, United States com-
(40) panies reduce their chances for future
competitiveness.

A- 1股票市場,美國的特點,與德國比較.70行
版本2:
股票市場, 米國的特點, 與德國比較. 70行
(3段:1米國該system的特點; 2德國某一點較好;
3另一方面米國較好,所以總的來說米國該system好象還可以)
[version 1]第一段主要介紹美國external capital investment,並和德國對比,
說德國人的股票投資主要是在少數幾個 selective公司,而美國人確是short-term
第二段是美國的internal capital investment
[version 2] 我碰到美國和德國比較那個了,和GWD那篇不太一樣,
好像是那篇的前傳。。因為第二段和GWD的第一段一樣,
而考試的第一段似乎是總結性質的,說美國的投資有很大的缺陷,
特別是對於具有長期競爭力的發展有一定的損害作用。
那些高科技企業往往得到很多的投資

2.美國external capital market以及internal capital market的,
第一段還提到德國相關的政策。 有主旨題,第二段作用題
12/27 新增
第一段,美國的external capital market,
分析師和投資的非常看重股價,投資者投資很多家公司,但是每一家投的都很少,
對長期發展不關注。這一點和德國相反。德國的投資者投資少量的幾家公司,
但是很關注公司長期的發展。
第二段,美國的internal capital market, 觀點是和外部的一樣。舉例說了公司的經營者
為了報表上的業績,為了縮減成本 ,不惜減少對無形資產的投資,因為無形資產的
投資回報很難用數字衡量,最後一句話代過有說員工的培訓專案也被縮減了。
題目:1)德國和美國公司在以下哪一個方面最不同,我選的是最後一個,對市場的
敏感度。
2)第二段在全文中的功能

第二篇
好像jj有
1p 美國external的資本市場的投資偏好,In contrast,德國只選取少量公司
投資,並且依賴長期的分析資訊,而不像美國對short-term的利益非常敏感。
出題:與德國的對比,except哪個?
2p 美國internal資本市場的特性,跟1p講得比較像。
出題:2p的作用/和1p形成的關係
講美國人的投資理念,第一段講美國的大範圍的投資方式,並於德國人的投資方式進行
對比,德國人投的比較細,喜歡進行長遠投資,因此對所投企業的研究比較細緻,而
美國人注重短期收益,投得太散,只關注諸如該企業最近的資本收益率。而且美國人的
錢傾向于投資諸如電腦高科技產業。
第二段講美國企業internal投資方式,由於某些原因,企業家比較重視短期收益率而將
對企業員工的培訓之類行為當作COST成本,而不是看成長遠投資。
有一題比較美德兩國投資方式的不同之處不包括哪一個
有一題問整個第二段的作用是什麼。我選的好像是A,他和第一段平行。
有一題問美國企業家的投資行為。
1 第一段,美國的external capital market,
分析師和投資的非常看重股價,投資者投資很多家公司,但是每一家投的都很少,對
長期發展不關注。這一點和德國相反。德國的投資者投資少量的幾家公司,但是很關注
公司長期的發展。
第二段,美國的internal capital market, 觀點是和外部的一樣。舉例說了公司的
經營者為了報表上的業績,為了縮減成本 ,不惜減少對無形資產的投資,因為無形
資產的投資回報很難用數字衡量,最後一句話代過有說員工的培訓專案也被縮減了。

問題:美國和德國人在投資時考慮的因素exept題 第二段的作用,
就是講internal的那段。第二段還有個細節題,忘記了,呵呵
