International trade: can be defined as the exchange of goods and services produced in one country with those produced in another. 2. International specialization: one country producing more of a commodity than it uses itself and selling the remainder to other countries. 3. The theory of comparative advantage: holds that even if a country is less efficient than another in the production of both commodities, i.e. it has absolute disadvantage in producing both commodities, there is still a basis for mutually beneficial trade. 4.國際專業(yè)化：international specialization 絕對利益：absolute advantage 比較利益：comparative advantage 5. rich in advantage over point on across borders 6.Translation: (1) 在復雜的經(jīng)濟世界中，沒有一個國家可以完全自給自足。 In the complex economic world, no country can be completely self- sufficient. (2) 隨著制造業(yè)和技術的發(fā)展，出現(xiàn)了另一個刺激貿(mào)易的因素，即國際專業(yè)化。 With the development of manufacturing and technology, there arose another incentive for trade, i.e. international specialization. (3) 按照比較利益學說，兩個貿(mào)易伙伴均可從貿(mào)易中得到好處。 According to the theory of comparative advantage, both trade partners can benefit from trade. (4) 比較利益并不是一個靜止的概念，一個國家可以通過自己的行動發(fā)展某種特定的比較利益。 Comparative advantage is not a static concept; a country may develop a particular comparative advantage through its own actions. (5) 比較利益理論已成為現(xiàn)代國際貿(mào)易思想的基石。 The idea of comparative advantage has become the cornerstone of modern thinking on international trade. Lesson 2 1.

(2) 在實際中，即使完全的專業(yè)化在經(jīng)濟上有利，也可能永遠不會發(fā)生。 In reality, complete specialization may never take place even though it is economically advantageous. (3) 配額或者說數(shù)量限制是最常見的關稅壁壘。 Quotas or quantitative restrictions are the most common form of non-tariff barriers. (4) 有形貿(mào)易指貨物的進出口貿(mào)易，而無形貿(mào)易涉及的是國家間的勞務交換。 The visible trade is the import and export of goods, and the invisible trade is the exchange of services between countries. (5) 國家從事的貿(mào)易種類是多樣的、復雜的，往往是有形貿(mào)易和無形貿(mào)易的混合。 The kinds of trade nations engage in are varied and complex, often a mixture of visible and invisible trade. Lesson 3 1.

Documents against payment (D/P): documents will not be released to the importer until payment is effected. 7. D/P at sight: requires immediate payment by the importer to get hold of the documents. 8. D/P after sight: gives the importer a certain period after presentation of the documents, but documents are not released to him until he actually pays for the merchandise. 9.
