举一反三考点练
《外贸商函》签订合同-课后自测
知识点一 合同/确认书份数及签署流程的表达
1. (单项选择题) In a contract agreement, which phrase indicates that the document should be prepared in three copies? ( )
A. in duplicate
B. in triplicate
C. in quadruplicate
D. in quintuplicate
【答案】B
【解析】"in triplicate" 意为“一式三份”,符合题意。 "in duplicate" 是一式两份,"in quadruplicate" 是一式四份,"in quintuplicate" 是一式五份。
2. (单项选择题) Which of the following sentences best explains the purpose of returning one copy of a signed document? ( )
A. "Please sign and keep the document for your records."
B. "Please countersign and return one copy to us for our file."
C. "We have prepared the document in duplicate for your review."
D. "The document needs to be notarized before it is valid."
【答案】B
【解析】选项B明确说明了需要“会签(countersign)”并“返还一份(return one copy)”给“我方(for us)”,“以便存档(for our file)”,清晰地表达了返还的目的。其他选项要么没有提到返还,要么没有说明返还的目的。
3. (单项选择题) What does the term "countersign" mean in the context of signing a document? ( )
A. To sign the document for the first time.
B. To sign the document again after the first signature has been made.
C. To sign the document on behalf of someone else.
D. To sign the document in a different color ink.
【答案】B
【解析】"Countersign" 的意思是“会签”或“副署”,即在已有签名的基础上再签署一次,通常表示确认或同意。这与“签署”或“代签”不同。
4. (判断题) The phrase "in duplicate" means that the document should be prepared in two identical copies. ( )
【答案】√
【解析】"in duplicate" 的标准含义就是“一式两份”,即制作两份内容完全相同的文件。
5. (判断题) When a document is sent "in triplicate", the sender typically expects the recipient to return all three copies. ( )
【答案】×
【解析】通常情况下,文件制作多份是为了各方留存和流转。例如,一式三份可能是一份给对方、一份对方返还、一份我方留存,或者各方各执一份。并不一定要求返还所有份数。
6. (判断题) The sentence "We enclose herewith our Purchase Order No. 123 in duplicate, please sign and return one copy." clearly states the number of copies, the required action, and the expected return. ( )
【答案】√
【解析】这句话明确说明了:文件份数(in duplicate,一式两份)、需要对方做的动作(sign and return one copy,签署并返还一份)、隐含的返还目的(通常是为了确认和存档)。虽然没明说“存档”,但这是商业惯例。
7. (单项选择题) Which phrase is NOT used to indicate the number of copies a document should be made in? ( )
A. in quintuplicate
B. in sextuplicate
C. in octuplicate
D. in triplicate
【答案】C
【解析】虽然 "in octuplicate"(一式八份)在语法上是正确的,但在商业实践中,超过五份(quintuplicate)的表达相对少见,常用的是两份、三份、四份。选项A、B、D都是实际使用的表达。
知识点二 合同双方基本权利与义务的陈述句式
1. (单项选择题) In the standard sentence "The supplier agrees to sell and the buyer agrees to buy the under-mentioned goods on the terms and conditions stated below.", which part explicitly defines the roles of the two parties? ( )
A. "agrees to sell" and "agrees to buy"
B. "the supplier" and "the buyer"
C. "the under-mentioned goods"
D. "on the terms and conditions stated below"
【答案】B
【解析】句子中 "the supplier" (供应商) 和 "the buyer" (买方) 直接指明了双方的角色。选项A描述的是他们的行为,选项C是交易对象,选项D是后续条款的引言。
2. (单项选择题) Which of the following best captures the primary function of the sentence "The supplier agrees to sell and the buyer agrees to buy... on the terms and conditions stated below." in a contract? ( )
A. To specify the exact quantity of goods.
B. To establish the fundamental intent and agreement between the parties.
C. To detail the payment schedule.
D. To list the penalties for breach of contract.
【答案】B
【解析】该句式的作用是开宗明义,确立双方进行交易的基本意愿和核心协议,为后续条款奠定基础。它不是用来具体说明数量、支付细节或违约处罚的。
3. (单项选择题) In the context of the sentence structure provided, what does "under-mentioned goods" refer to? ( )
A. Goods that are mentioned above the sentence.
B. Goods that are specified or listed later in the contract.
C. Goods that are internationally recognized standards.
D. Goods that are excluded from the agreement.
【答案】B
【解析】"under-mentioned" 意为“下文提到的”,因此 "under-mentioned goods" 指的是合同后续部分将要详细列出的货物。
4. (判断题) The sentence "The supplier agrees to sell and the buyer agrees to buy..." primarily focuses on the detailed terms of delivery and payment. ( )
【答案】×
【解析】该句式主要关注的是双方进行交易的基本意愿和行为(出售和购买),而不是具体的交付和付款条款。具体的交付和付款条款会在后续的 "terms and conditions stated below" 中详细说明。
5. (判断题) The structure "Party A agrees to [do X] and Party B agrees to [do Y]..." is a common way to clearly state the basic rights and obligations of each party in a contract. ( )
【答案】√
【解析】这种结构通过明确指出每一方同意做什么,清晰地界定了他们的基本权利和义务,是合同中常用的表述方式。
6. (单项选择题) Which part of the sentence "The supplier agrees to sell and the buyer agrees to buy the under-mentioned goods on the terms and conditions stated below." serves as a transition to the detailed clauses of the contract? ( )
A. "The supplier agrees to sell"
B. "the buyer agrees to buy"
C. "the under-mentioned goods"
D. "on the terms and conditions stated below"
【答案】D
【解析】"on the terms and conditions stated below" 明确指出了合同的具体条款和条件将在下面陈述,起到了承上启下的过渡作用。

A. The future intention of the parties.
B. The mandatory nature of the actions.
C. The historical actions already completed.
D. The optional nature of the transaction.
【答案】A
【解析】"agrees to" 强调的是双方达成的协议和意愿,即他们同意去做某事,侧重于未来的意向和承诺,而不是简单的未来事实陈述(will)或强制要求。
