前 言 随着全球经济一体化的迅速发展和“互联网+”经济模式的崛起，社会经济正发生着翻天覆地的变化，除了国际物流、第三方物流等老名词外，跨境电商、“新零售”、共享经济等新名词已悄然充斥着人们的工作和生活，它们的崛起无不跟物流息息相关，因此社会对物流专业人才的需求量越来越大，要求也越来越高。而物流专业人才除了应具备坚实的专业知识外，还应熟练掌握和运用外语，成为满足市场经济发展和国际经济交往需求的复合型人才。鉴于此，笔者编写了这本物流专业英语教材。 本书涉及物流概论、供应链管理、运输、仓储管理、包装、采购、物流信息系统、物流单证和电子商务物流9个主题，共9个单元，18篇文章。每单元课后都有练习题，题型涉及连线题、问答题、词语辨析题、单选题、英译汉和汉译英等，可作为课堂作业的内容，也可供课堂测验使用；另外，每单元还有1篇补充阅读，旨在扩大学生的阅读量。 本书在注重提高学生阅读能力和词汇水平的同时，还注重学生英语听说能力的训练。每单元都有两组角色扮演对话，根据其主题内容进行设计，拓展学生思维，提高口语表达能力。 本书的选材均来自国内外物流专业权威和近期出版的期刊杂志、网络文献、最新教材和报刊资料等，内容丰富、材料翔实，具有很强的时效性、实用性、前瞻性和时代性。 本书由北京吉利学院物流教研室王巍老师担任主编及统稿。由于时间仓促，编者水平有限，书中不妥及疏漏之处在所难免，敬请专家和读者不吝指正。 编 者
