Dear Customer Service: I received a debit card from your bank last week, and I have some questions __(1)__ its use. __(2)__, I am concerned about liability.

I looked in the booklet Rules for Personal Accounts at Union Bank, but I didn't see __(3)__ there. I have been __(4)__ at your bank for over 15 years and have always been happy with the service I have received there. __(5)__ you can answer my question satisfactorily. __(6)__, Arthur Schmidt |

Best Wishes, Elena Ugarte |

3.2. (18 points) Translate the following text into Russian.
International business, like every field of study, has its own terminology. To assist you in learning the special vocabulary, an important function of every introductory course, a glossary has been included and the most important terms are listed.
As with any new discipline, a number of words are employed whose definitions vary among users. Global, for example, is becoming the most widely accepted term to describe an organization that produces in, markets in, and obtains the factors of production from multiple countries for the purpose of furthering overall enterprise benefits. Yet some people use such terms as transnational, supranational, and multinational for global. Furthermore, multinational may have two distinct meanings, depending on whether the user is describing ownership or the areas of operation. For example, multinational usually describes a firm that operates in more than one country; however, government officials in the developing nations and some international organizations use multinational to indicate a joint venture whose owners (governments or groups of stockholders) come from three or more nations. These same officials call a firm operating in two or more countries a transnational. This adds to the confusion because for years, Europeans have used transnational to describe a company formed by a merger of two firms of approximately the same size that are from different countries. It is not a joint venture.
