Part III Reading Comprehension(20 points, each 2 points)
Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
Investing thousands of pounds in the recruitment and training of each new graduate recruit may be just the beginning. Choosing the wrong candidate may leave an organization paying for years to come.
Few companies will have escaped all of the following failures: people who panic at the first sign of stress; those with long, impressive qualifications who seem incapable of learning; hypochondriacs whose absentee record becomes astonishing; and the unstable person later discovered to be a thief or worse.
Less dramatic, but just as much a problem, is the person who simply does not come up to expectations, who does not quite deliver; who never becomes a high-flyer or even a steady performer; the employee with a fine future behind them.
The first point to bear in mind at the recruitment stage is that people don’t change. Intelligence levels decline modestly, but change little over their working life. The same is true of abilities, such as learning languages and handling numbers.
Most people like to think that personality can change, particularly the more negative features such as anxiety, low esteem, impulsiveness or a lack of emotional warmth. But data collected over 50 years gives a clear message: still stable after all these years. Extroverts become slightly less extroverted; the acutely shy appear a little less so, but the fundamentals remain much the same. Personal crises can affect the way we cope with things: we might take up or drop drink, drugs, religion or relaxation techniques, which can have pretty dramatic effects. Skills can be improved, and new ones introduced, but at rather different rates. People can be groomed for a job. Just as politicians are carefully repackaged through dress, hairstyle and speech specialists, so people can be sent on training courses, diplomas or experimental weekends. But there is a cost to all this which may be more than the price of the course. Better to select for what you actually see rather than attempt to change it.
21. According to the article, which type of failure is not mentioned?
A. people who panic B. hypochondriacs
C. people with no qualifications D. people who don’t come up to expectations
22. What does a fine future behind them (Para3) mean?
A. Some people had potential when employed, but never realized that potential.
B. Some people had a splendid future.
C. Some people didn’t have a splendid future.
D. Some people might have a splendid future earlier.
23. How do people change during their working lives?
A. change greatly B. change little
C. change modestly D. hard to say
24. What does personal crises (last paragraph) refer to?
A. personal danger B. personal illness
C. personal difficulties D. all of the above
25. What advice does the article give to managers?
A. Employers should select candidates for what they are rather than for their “potential”.
B. Employers should select candidates for their “potential” rather than for what they are.
C. Employers should select candidates with long, impressive qualifications.
D. Employers should select candidates who are high-flyers.
Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
Even if you get work done and generally get along with co-workers, you could have habits that bug your boss (not to mention your officemates). While these quirks may not necessarily get you fired, they certainly can keep you from climbing the corporate ladder. We’ve uncovered a number of habits that bug your boss and offer tips on how to avoid them.
According to LaRhonda Edwards, a human resources manager with thirteen years of HR experience, tardiness is one of the biggest concerns for managers. “If the normal work day starts at 8 o’clock, then the expectation is that you’re in the office ready to start your day,” she explains. Her advice to the chronically late? “Plan ahead,” she urges. “If you live 50 minutes away, you don’t leave 50 minutes early. Tag on extra time and anticipate road blocks.” Some people even set their clocks a few minutes early to ensure that they’re on time. Different bosses prefer different modes of communication. Lindsey Pollak, a workplace expert and author of Getting from College to Career, says if you text your boss and she prefers in-person meetings, “either your information won’t get across or you’ll irritate .” Fortunately, there’s a simple fix: ask your boss how and when to send updates. If you’re too shy to ask outright, then Pollak suggests observing how they communicate with you. “If you have a boss who communicates once a day by email, that’s the boss’ preferred frequency and method of communication,” explains Pollak.
A cluttered, messy work space can give your boss the impression that you’re lazy or disorganized, so try to keep your desk neat. “Never put more on your desk than you’re going to work on for the day,” recommends Edwards. “At the end of the day, make sure you set up for the next day. I may be working on five things at once, but at the end of the day, they’re gone, and I set up for the next day.” Most managers would rather you ask a question than make a mistake, but many questions can be answered on your own. “Is this something you could Google or ask a colleague?” wonders Pollak. “The internet is so vast that a lot of information you can get yourself.” If you must approach your boss with a question or issue, then Pollak recommends brainstorming beforehand. “Rather than saying ‘This client is terrible. What should I do?’ think about potential solutions,” she says.
Cell phones are practically ubiquitous in the workplace these days, but it’s still disruptive and disrespectful when they go off during a meeting. Edwards says that you should, “put your cell phone on vibrate or leave it in your own office so it’s not a distraction.” That way you won’t be tempted to text either
26. According to the article, how many pieces of advice are offered here?
A. Two B. Three C. Four D. Five
27. What is this article about?
A. How to be successful in the workplace.
B. How to communicate with your boss.
C. How to avoid quirks that annoy your boss.
D. How to utilize your mobile phones at work.
28. What does the phrase “to get across” in the sentence “…she prefers in-person meetings, “either your information won’t get across or you’ll irritate …” of the second paragraph mean?
A. To be communicated B. To be passed
C. To be promoted D. To be anticipated

It has become a commonplace to say that the world is changing at an ever-increasing pace. Companies today are faced with a stark choice: 31 or go under.

They were built on a model which achieved a high degree of control, but in which 32 of communication were few and slow.
Another disadvantage of this type of organization is that more junior 33my not even know who the CEO is, or what goals the decision-makers are trying to achieve. In order to try and solve this problem, may organizations have adopted a less 34 , more flexible business culture in which frequent contact between the owner and the employees ensures that 35 is flowing smoothly.
A second difficult choice for a company concerns the extent to which it should go global or remain 36 . Global operations allow maximum 37 of scales, while localization makes it possible to 38 quickly to market changes and to reach all market 39 . In order to reduce the tension between global and local demands, many companies have adopted a “hub and spoke’ structure. They use several regional production and40 “hubs” where neighboring markets are serviced from one single location.

Part V Translate the following passage from English into Chinese. ( 20 points)
Whether you have a small business or a big business, the customers have developed certain ideas about your company, product or service and this is called brand in a nutshell. The best way of improving your business is spreading awareness about your brand among the consumers.
It seems that many of the companies have lost sight of the significance of establishing brand loyalty and it is mainly reflected in the poor quality of their product as well as offer satisfactory customer service.
Another important factor that contributes a lot in developing brand loyalty is advertisement and marketing. In present time, wherever we look, TV ads, banners, hoardings, magazines, billboards draw our attention and we find some or the other brand is reminding us of our need and promising to provide us with more than our expectations.
When a customer comes to buy a product, a number of factors mold his/her decision of buying a product of a particular brand. The decisive factors include past experience of quality, price, word-of-mouth, customer service, brand connotation and so on. Brand loyalty occurs only when the customer is satisfied.模拟试卷1答案Part I Multiple Choice(共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)
