Mobile office is the mutual product of economic,scientific,and social progress.Mobile office has become a solution that provides users with convenient,prompt,safe,reliable,and reasonably priced communications and office faculty anywhere anytime via the sup port of mobile interconnection platform(MIP)and its applications systems.
When you leave your office to attend meetings or travel on business,what would happen to your business routine?Of course,faxes and e-mails would be still sent to your fax machine or e-mail box,but you cannot read them and make prompt reaction timely.When your clients need you to make some urgent modifications on your work and you are neither in the office nor carrying relevant documents,what can you do?Maybe you have to say“sorry”to the clients.But,your business will be affected,the clients will be unhappy and disappointed because of your delay,and you will lose a lot of business opportunities.
In fact,very frequently,you need to check,reply,distribute,display,modify,or read some materials when you are not in your office.You must get out of this dilemma.The best solution to normally handle your business anywhere anytime and not to disappoint your clients is to let your office“move”with you.Thus,you can have convenient,prompt,safe,reliable,and reasonably priced communications and office faculty anywhere anytime.With the development of communications technology,network application,and wireless interconnection,mobile office has become simpler and smaller,and even can be realized via one mobile phone with data communications function.Thus,mobile office has already been put into your pocket,and office mobility has been realized.
Mobile office has provided people with convenient,casual working environment,but at the same time it still has some unsatisfactory aspects such as mismatching equipment interface(接口,界面) and inadequate battery. Nevertheless,we believe that with technical progress,people can certainly overcome all kinds of difficulties.Mobile office will make your career unimpeded,and will realize the dream of completely free communication.Users will enjoy more colorful life and better working environment,and users' living standard,working efficiency,and even enterprises' production efficiency will certainly be immensely raised.

指點(diǎn)迷津
Mobile office has become a solution [that provides users with convenient,prompt,safe,reliable,and reasonably priced communications and office faculty anywhere anytime via the sup port of mobile interconnection platform(MIP)and its applications systems].在本句中,方括號(hào)里由“that”引導(dǎo)的從句作定語修飾先行詞“solution”;圓括號(hào)里的內(nèi)容是“with”這個(gè)介詞的賓語。
試題精析
1.選D.本題為主要細(xì)節(jié)正誤題。第一段第一句說明移動(dòng)辦公室是經(jīng)濟(jì),社會(huì)和科技三者發(fā)展共同的產(chǎn)物,并非B選項(xiàng)所說的是科技進(jìn)步的必然產(chǎn)物;A選項(xiàng)中用了“only”,太片面;C選項(xiàng)在文中并無相應(yīng)論述。
2.選B.本題為主要細(xì)節(jié)正誤題。原文第二段第二句說“faxes and e-mails would be still sent to your fax machine or e-mail box,but you cannot read them……”B選項(xiàng)與其意思一致。
3.選C.本題為主要細(xì)節(jié)正誤題。A選項(xiàng)和B選項(xiàng)表述正確,但都缺少一個(gè)前提:當(dāng)你不在辦公室的時(shí)候。D選項(xiàng)和題干毫無關(guān)系。
4.選C.本題為主旨?xì)w納題。A選項(xiàng)與原文意思不符;B選項(xiàng)沒有概括出整個(gè)段落的意思;D選項(xiàng)在文中沒有提及。
5.選D.本題為觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度推斷題。從原文最后一段“people can certainly overcome all kinds of difficulties”可推斷,移動(dòng)辦公室的缺點(diǎn)不是致命的,排除A選項(xiàng);B、C選項(xiàng)在文中無相應(yīng)論述;最后一段第一句說“it still has some unsatisfactory aspects such as mismatching equipment interface”,由此可知,移動(dòng)辦公室除了有很多優(yōu)點(diǎn)外也有其缺點(diǎn)。
全文翻譯
移動(dòng)辦公室是經(jīng)濟(jì)、科技、社會(huì)三者發(fā)展進(jìn)步的共同產(chǎn)物。通過無線互聯(lián)平臺(tái)(MIP)及其應(yīng)用系統(tǒng)的支撐,移動(dòng)辦公室已經(jīng)成為一種能夠使用戶獲得隨時(shí)隨地、簡便快捷、安全可靠、價(jià)格合理的通信和辦公能力的解決方案。
當(dāng)你離開辦公室,忙于參加會(huì)議或出差在外時(shí),你的日常工作業(yè)務(wù)會(huì)怎樣呢?當(dāng)然,傳真和電子郵件依然會(huì)到達(dá)你的傳真機(jī)和電子信箱,但是你卻不能及時(shí)地看到它們并迅速作出反應(yīng)。當(dāng)你的客戶需要你對某項(xiàng)工作進(jìn)行一些緊急修改,而你恰好不在辦公室,又沒有隨身攜帶相關(guān)文件時(shí),怎么辦呢?你也許只能向客戶說“對不起”了。但是,你的業(yè)務(wù)將受到影響,客戶們也會(huì)因?yàn)槟愕难舆t而感到不快和失望,因而你失去許多商機(jī)。
實(shí)際上,當(dāng)你不在辦公室,但需要對某些材料進(jìn)行查閱、回復(fù)、分發(fā)、展示、修改或宣讀的情形是很常見的。因此,你必須從這種困境中解脫出來。使自己能夠隨時(shí)隨地正常處理業(yè)務(wù),不讓客戶失望,最好的解決辦法就是讓你的辦公室也隨你一起“移動(dòng)”起來,使你獲得隨時(shí)隨地、簡單快捷、安全可靠、價(jià)格合理的通信和辦公能力。隨著通信技術(shù)、網(wǎng)絡(luò)應(yīng)用以及無線互聯(lián)的發(fā)展,移動(dòng)辦公室已經(jīng)變得越來越簡單小巧,甚至只需一個(gè)具有數(shù)據(jù)通信功能的移動(dòng)電話即可實(shí)現(xiàn)。此時(shí),移動(dòng)辦公室已經(jīng)被你裝進(jìn)了口袋,從而真正實(shí)現(xiàn)了辦公的移動(dòng)性。
移動(dòng)辦公室給人們帶來了方便隨意的工作環(huán)境,但同時(shí)也存在著一些諸如設(shè)備接口不匹配、電池電力不足等不盡如人意的地方。但是,我們相信,隨著技術(shù)的進(jìn)步,人們肯定能戰(zhàn)勝種種困難。移動(dòng)辦公室將使你的事業(yè)暢通無阻,實(shí)現(xiàn)完全自由通信的夢想。用戶將會(huì)享受多彩的生活和美好的工作環(huán)境;用戶的生活水平、工作效率以及企業(yè)的生產(chǎn)效率,必將大大提高。
