问题 Which is NOT a suggestion given on business travels abroad in the passage? [br]  
When travelling abroad on business, it is useful to prepare in advance and avoid pitfalls. Following there are several good tips that you might wish to consider.
    Show an interest in, and at least an elementary knowledge of the country you are visiting. Learn a few words of the language—it will be seen as a compliment. Be sensitive to countries who have bigger and better-known neighbors, and try not to confuse Canadians with Americans, New Zealanders with Australians, Belgians with French. Familiarize yourself with the basics of business and social etiquette. As a starting point, learning how to greet people is probably the most important to leave a good impression.
    Do not assume you won’t meet communication problems because you speak English. You may think that you are paying somebody a compliment by telling them their business is going like a bomb, Americans will infer you think it is failing. Do not appear too reserved. As Americans are generally more exuberant than their European colleagues, they may equate reserve with lack of enthusiasm.
    In Great Britain and the United States gift giving is not a very popular custom; people can spend their entire working lives without ever receiving a corporate gift. However, gift giving is sometimes an integral part of the negotiation process when doing business abroad such as Japan and China.

选项 A、To give tips for tourists to travel in a foreign country for the first time.
B、To offer some hints on the preparation for a business travel.
C、To instruct how to act in a foreign country for those on a business trip.
D、To help avoid pitfalls in the negotiation with a foreign business partner.

答案 B

解析 主旨题。本段结构明确,总分式论述,文章开头便点明本文主旨。根据开篇“When travelling abroad on business it is useful to prepare in advance and avoid pitfalls. Following there are several good tips…”以及下文具体的建议可知,本文对进行跨国商务旅行需要做的准备提供了相关建议。选项A所述这些建议是提供给第一次出国旅游的旅客的,错误。选项C所述指导跨国商务旅行中的行为,不准确,因为本文主要是点明需要注意和了解的方面,而没有指出具体应该如何做。选项D所述帮助避免在涉外协商中出错,不正确,协商只是本文的一个例子,而非全文总体所指。选项B与文章主旨相符,故本题应选择选项B。主旨句一般位于文章或者段落的开头或结尾,明晰文章脉络,充分理解主旨与实例的关系,加以联系并区分。
