Unit 13 People The annual World Economic Forum (经济论坛) took place in Davos, Switzerland, in Jan. 23—26, 2018. What did Chinese entrepreneurs (企业家) speak in the forum? Are there some quotable quotes for you? ★Jack Ma, founder and executive chairman of Alibaba Group “I think globalization cannot be stopped—no one can stop globalization, no one can stop trade. If trade stops, the world stops. Trade is the way to dissolve (溶解，结束) the war, not cause the war，” said Ma in Davos, “Google, Facebook, Amazon and Alibaba—we are the luckiest companies of this century. But we have the responsibility to have a good heart, and do something good.” ★Richard Liu, founder and chief executive officer of JD “Business is not only a way to make money but also a way to contribute yourself, to help people，” Liu said in a speech in Davos. “How can we face the fractured (分化的) world? That's the topics of the Davos this year. I think a very important thing in business is cooperation. If we can unite, work together, if we work very closely, I think we can bring more hope to the people and we can build more trust between the people, countries and companies and partners，” he said. ★Jane Sun, CEO of Ctrip “Tourism is a sunrise industry. Since I entered Ctrip, every year there are new comers, which, first of all, shows that tourism is booming.” Sun told Sina.com in Davos. “We invested heavily in ABC. A refers to Al, B is big data, and C is cloud computing. As we continue to expand overseas, these three will be very good weapons for us. So we think those mean opportunity，” she said. ★Hu Xiaoming, president of Aliyun “In 2018, people will see the development in various countries more closely connected with cloud computing. More manufacturing enterprises and financial institutions will start to use ‘cloud’， and cloud computing will increase the efficiency of technology and finance，” Hu told Xinhua in Davos. 开启快乐学习之旅 2018年1月23日至28日达沃斯论坛在瑞士进行，本文是与会的四位中国企业家的发言内容。 SectionⅠ Warm?up & Lesson 1 Ⅰ.重点单词 1．beard n. 胡须 2．uniform n. 制服 3．emergency n. 紧急情况 4．academic adj. 学术的 5．entirely adv. 完全地 6．accuse vt. 控告，谴责 7．pray vt. & vi. 祈祷，祷告 8．deserve vt. 应得，值得 9．mistaken adj. 错误的 10．fail v. 失败→failure n. 失败 11．possibility n. 可能性→possible adj. 可能的→possibly adv. 可能；或许 12．disability n. 残疾；无能力→disable vt. 使残疾，使丧失能力→disabled adj. 有残疾的 13．connection n. 联系；连接→connect v. 连接 14．association n. 关系；联想，协会→associate vt. 联想，联系 15．expression n. 表情；词语→express vt. 表达；快递邮寄 n. 快车；快递服务；[美]捷运公司 16．gift n. 礼物；天赋；天资→gifted adj. 有天赋的 17．accurately adv. 精确地，准确地→accurate adj. 精确的，准确的 18．description n. 描述，形容→describe vt. 描述 19．predict vt. 预言，预测→prediction n. 预言 Ⅱ.核心短语 1．draw_up 起草 2．ake_turns_to_do_sth. 轮流做某事 3．compare...with ... ...
