Floors,food preparation surfaces and tools can be disinfected with chemicals like chlorine,iodine or bromine.Food containers should be stored about half a meter off the ground and about half a meter away from any walls.Storage areas should be kept dry and clean. Containers for raw materials such as rice,wheat,etc.should be kept closed and clean.Any foodstuff split during delivery or handling should be cleared up both inside and outside the building.Pests enter a building from the outside,so pay attention to outer walls.Small stones can be used to cover the ground and block the growth of plants and the grass should be kept short to deny pests a place to live. Check that doors and windows are completely closed.Also any hole that might allow pests to enter a building should be filled.Rats can enter through a hole the size of a coin.A mouse can pass through a hole half that size. Supervisors should make a list of pest control measures to be taken by employees.This will aid the efforts and also help prepare for any inspections.In most countries,there is a food and drug administration bureau,or some agency with a similar name,which enforces rules nationwide,responsible for rules about the use of pesticides,etc.However,businesses where food is stored,prepared or sold must also follow state and local health laws.Most of these governmental departments or bureaus have their websites with information about food safety policies and other issues.People can easily access the information. 1.According to pest control experts,why should poisons never be used in food companies? A.Because they may enter food. B.Because they may kill rats. C.Because they may be harmful to the plants. [答案]A 2.What is the first line of defense against pests?

[答案]C D Door-knocking is the most effective way of making face-to-face community contact,but it has become a lost art.With the recent focus on customer privacy,door-knocking seems like an intrusion into other people’s lives.But those who try it for the first time are usually surprised by the pleasant reception they receive.Here are some suggestions that will help you promote your services face-to-face. BEFORE YOU GO OUT ◆BEGIN WITH A DOOR HANGER Try leaving a door hanger two days before you go door-knocking.It should briefly describe the project and say that someone will be around in person. ◆WEAR AN OFFICIAL NAME TAG Door-knockers should wear name tags with the logo of their organization.The best name tags will also include a color photo and the name of the caller. ◆HAVE PEOPLE KNOCK THEIR OWN BLOCKS The easiest way to do door-knocking is to try your local area first.Being a neighbor creates an immediate connection with the person answering the door;after that,everything else is easy. ◆FIND A GOOD EXCUSE TO DOOR-KNOCK A short survey about local concerns or a current project is a good excuse.Figure out responses for various situations.What if the person who answers the door cannot speak English? What if a child answers the door? WHEN YOU GO OUT ◆WHEN TO GO AND WHAT TO DO FIRST The best times to knock are usually Saturdays.On other days,after dinner is ideal.When someone answers the door,smile and introduce yourself;say you are a volunteer and,if it helps,state where you live.Give the name of your organization and,briefly,the reason for the visit. ◆STATE WHAT ACTION THE OTHER PERSON SHOULD TAKE AND THE BENEFITS Tell the person what they need to do and how their actions will benefit themselves and others.If a person hesitates,emphasize benefits you’ve already mentioned and then,if necessary,add further benefits.If a person agrees,follow up immediately.If possible,get a donation,a signature,or a promise. ◆RECORD CONTACT INFORMATION ON THE SPOT Record names,addresses,e-mail addresses,phone numbers,and responses to questions on the spot.You won’t remember them later! 1.Why does the author say that door-knocking has become a lost art? A.It is not effective,no one will take this method any more.

[答案]C H Human Resources Management (HRM) is the process of managing people and their relationships in an organization.These two processes are important in the success and growth of a business. In managing people,staffing is the most important component of HRM.It needs to make guidelines and procedures for hiring and placement.Staffing also involves the management of employees on matters like monitoring of holidays,absences,health and safety,disciplinary action,and dismissal. Another important element of HRM in managing people is keeping the employees in the company.The training of employees to enable them to improve their career development is very important.Good HRM policies ensure that there are clear regulations which show the pay levels for the different positions in an organization.It is important for the staff to know the career path,pay,training and other opportunities that are available to them.Performance management is another important component of HRM.The reason for this is that many employers use it to evaluate career improvement and to determine pay increases. The secondary role of HRM is the management of the relationships among people in an organization.This includes staff within departments as well as across the whole organization.The relationship between staff and management is an important factor in the success of an organization.It decides how fast an organization will realize their goals. The focus of HRM is the people within an organization.Regular planning,monitoring and evaluation are important for the success of HRM.Successful management ensures that all employees know their role,career development and also feel part of an organization.

Fortunately things are different now.Sixty people are employed by Hoogle and communication between departments is considered to be one of the most important aspects of the business.The market is global so we need to make contact with customers worldwide,not just locally. But in the old days we were all in different departments and never spoke to each other.We had a tall structure.Traditionally we had people at the first level on the shop floor,manufacturing products according to the instructions which they were given.Then you had a supervisory level of people who supervised them every day.Then you moved up to the middle management,who were doing the tasks of getting new business,and then you had the senior management team,and then you had the board,who decided the business strategy.So there were a lot of levels in the company in the old days actually. The structure today is that we form teams within teams to place people who can manufacture a product.Each team has members that can manufacture different products.The actual teams now are self-managing,so we don’t even have team leaders.You’ve got the teams,and then you’ve got two people,only two people,who are what you think of as management.This is generally called flat structure.

A.Organization Structure in Hoogle Engineering B.History of Hoogle Engineering C.Success in Hoogle engineering [答案]A O Of all the family members,grandparents are probably the least valued.They are just the people who have always been around.They make a fuss over the children in the family,showoff to their friends the achievements of this child or that child,and show countless pictures of new babies.Grandfathers can fix anything and grandmothers always have homemade biscuits around. When you are small,it is fun to stay with your grandparents because they always let you do things you can’t do at home,and of course,they buy you things.They are always able to baby-sit because they don’t go out much and actually prefer to see their grandchildren.They are usually good for a small loan now and then that does not need to be paid back because they turned it into a gift.You respectfully listen to their advice but do not follow it because they are old and do not understand how things are in this day and age.You thank them politely for what they do for you,and then do not call or visit them until you need something else.And,of course,you never tell them how dear they are to you because they know how you feel about them anyway.Then all of a sudden,they are no longer there to do the things that only grandparents can do,and you find yourself wishing that you had told them what they meant to you as people and not as grandparents. 21.What is the position of grandparents in the family? A.They are the least important members of the family. B.They are the most important members of the family. C.They are the ones at whom their children or grandchildren usually laugh. [答案]A 22.What do grandparents never do? A.Looking after their grandchildren. B.Buying their grandchildren things. C.Telling their grandchildren how dear they are to them. [答案]C 23.Why don’t children need to payback the loan from their grandparents? A.Grandparents turn the loan into a gift. B.Their parents payback the loan for them. C.Their grandparents died before they have enough money to pay it back. [答案]A 24.Why don’t children take their grandparents’ advice? A.Their advice is not of any help in the present situation. B.They don’t like the advice itself. C.Following their advice will make them act like old people. [答案]A 25.How do children feel after their grandparents died? A.They feel sorry that grandparents are the least valued in the family. B.They miss them very much because no one does the things that only grandparents do. C.They regret they didn’t express their true feelings to them. [答案]C On Christmas Eve-the night before Christmas Day-children all over Britain put a stocking at the end of their beds before they go to sleep.Their parents usually tell them that Father Christmas will come during the night. Father Christmas is very kind and hearted.He gets to the top of each house and climbs down the chimney into the fireplace.He fills each of the stockings with Christmas presents. Of course,Father Christmas isn’t real.In Jim and Kate’s house,“Father Christmas”is really Mr Green.Mr Green doesn’t climb down the chimney.He waits until the children are asleep.Then he quietly goes into their bedrooms and fills their stockings with small presents.When they were very young,Mr Green sometimes wore a red coat.But he doesn’t do that now.The children are no longer young,and they know who “Father Christmas” really is.But they still put their stockings at the end of their beds. 26.Christmas Eve is_________.

A.window B.back door C.chimney [答案]C Q THE HISTORY OF QUALITY CONTROL Quality control is a series of activities that ensure and improve the quality of products and service. The term 'quality control' came into common use in the 1950s because of W.Edward Deming.His 'Fourteen Points' have become the bible for quality control specialists.When the post-war world returned to regular manufacturing,Deming said that inspecting product quality after they were made was unacceptable.Instead,he proposed a process known as 'statistical quality control'.It would use closely monitored performance measures to control quality while a product was being made.The goal of statistical quality control was to gather data that would allow for the constant improvement of manufacturing processes.This would in turn improve quality control. Another important principle of Deming's beliefs was that upper management should be responsible for quality failures.He strongly believed that it was possible for the workers to work hard to produce the highest quality products if they were given the right tools and working environment.In Deming's own words,'the basic cause of sickness in American industry and the resulting unemployment is a failure of top management to manage.' He believed that strong leadership led to a motivated work force. If strong leadership is the term for managers in a quality environment,then empowerment is the key concept for workers in Deming's system.Improved education and training are key factors in reaching employees and making them believe that their increased participation in the work process is an essential part of improving quality.Involvement,participation,and teamwork are seen as absolute 'must haves' if a quality workplace is to be created. The Japanese were the first to use Deming's Fourteen Points,and made great success.As an example,one Japanese factory doubled production in just one year and was expecting to gain an additional 25 percent improvement the following year,with no increase in the amount of working hours.All this happened as a result of simply improving quality.It was in the late 1970s that American manufacturing factories realized that quality control was a significant issue.By that time,Japanese firms such as Honda and Sony were taking over large portions of the American consumer market while it took most American firms until the 1990s to put quality control practices in place. 1.According to W.Edward Deming,what is the best time to control product quality? A.Before a product is made. B.After a product is made. C.During the production process. [答案]C 2.When there are quality failures,where does W.Edward Deming think the blame lies? A.In the workforce. B.In the upper management. C.In the tools. [答案]C 3.Which of the following will not help to create a quality workplace? A.Working alone. B.Group participation. C.Training programs. [答案]A 4.During which period were some Japanese firms winning American consumer markets over American firms? A.1990s. B.2000s. C.1970s. [答案]C 5.According to the passage,which of the following statements about quality control is NOT correct? A.Quality control can lead to great success for a company. B.Quality control can be done within one department. C.Quality control requires constant improvement. [答案]B T The 2014 Ebola outbreak is the largest in history and the first Ebola outbreak in Test Africa.Although the current epidemic does not cause a significant risk to other nations,many countries,including China and the United States of America,have actually been working closely with the Ebola hit states.For example,the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is taking precautions at home besides its activities abroad. CDC’ s team of “virus hunters” is supported by specialized public health teams both in West Africa and at the CDC Atlanta headquarters.Together,they offer continuous support to save lives and protect people.CDC works closely with a number of US government agencies,national and international partners.CDC’ s experience of working with Ebola is important to the World Health Organization’s growing West Africa Ebola response. On Sept.2,2014,CDC Director,Tom Frieden called for more international partners to join this effort.“The sooner the world comes together to help West Africa,the safer we all will be.We know how to stop this outbreak.There is a window of opportunity to do so-the challenge is to scale up the massive response needed to stop this outbreak.” CDC’ s response to Ebola is the largest international outbreak response in CDC’ s history with over 100 disease specialists on the ground in West Africa,supported by hundreds of public health emergency response experts stateside,activated at Level 1,its highest level,because of the significance of this outbreak. The CDC supports affected countries to establish Emergency Operations Centers at national and local levels and helps countries track the epidemic including using real-time data to improve real-time response. Efforts in West Africa to identify those infected and track people who have come into contact with them are improving.The CDC is operating and supporting labs in the region to improve diagnosis and testing samples from people with suspected Ebola from around the world. Local health care systems are strengthened through communication,coordination with partners and training on infection control for health care workers and safe patient treatment. 26.How could we describe the 2014 Ebola outbreak? A.The first one in western countries. B.1t did not ever threaten West Africa. C.Not the first but the largest e. [答案]C 27.The 2014 Ebola outbreak response was_________. A.an American stateside activity B.an international activity C.a regional activity [答案]B 28.What does the underlined word “massive” mean in Paragraph 3? A.Huge. B.Quick. C.Urgent. [答案]A 29.How many disease specialists from CDC have gone to West Africa for the Ebola response? A.Less than 100. B.A hundred. C.10re than 100. [答案]C 30.What action does CDC take to respond to the large Ebola outbreak? A.Work closely with governmental,national and international partners. B.Call for more partners to join this effort.

INFOSAN is a joint program between the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).This global network includes 181 Member States.Each has a designated INFOSAN Emergency Contact Point which manages communication between national food safety authorities. The network aims to: Promote the rapid exchange of information during food safety related events; Share information on important food safety related issues of global interest; Promote partnership and cooperation between countries; Help countries strengthen their capacity to manage food safety risks. As part of its routine activities,the INFOSAN Secretariat publishes reports in six languages and provides members with summaries and guidance on relevant food safety issues. INFOSAN helps exchange food safety information and experience among its members.It is also a useful resource for other public health organizations which recognize INFOSAN as an organization through which findings of investigations and strategies for improving food safety may be shared. INFOSAN monitors possible international food safety related events in close cooperation with the WHO Alert and Response Operations program.INFOSAN can work with other international organizations to provide assistance to the countries or regions with emerging food safety events of possible international concern. 1.The need for regular exchange of information on food safety issues is__________when a food safety related event emerges A.unnecessary B.urgent C.unimportant [答案]B 2.It is__________that international issues related to food safety will increase.

A.Every member state of INFOSAN B.Every member state of FAO C.Every member state of WHO [答案]A The road system in Beijing’s central business district (CBD) is being re-designed to make public transportation easy and improve efficiency. Plans for 45 roads within the CBD have been approved,measuring 41.5 kilometers in total.In addition to public buses,free or low price shuttle buses from residence areas to subway stations will also be provided for commuters. This is just over four times the number of roads opened in 2007,and will add another 15.5 km to the existing road network. Besides roads,an underground traffic system has also been operating,which includes four new subway lines beneath the CBD. The underground connection system is made up of two levels.The first underground floor is set aside mainly for pedestrians and commercial facilities,while the second underground floor is planned for parking. The city has also invested 140 million yuan to set up a traffic inquiry system,through which the public can check traffic conditions online and see the most convenient routes on their GPS system.In the future,the CBD will be fully covered by an intelligent traffic control system. 1.The road system in Beijing’s downtown area is being to make public transportation easy and improve efficiency. A.built B.designed again C.constructed [答案]B 2.An underground system including new subway lines beneath the CBD has been operating.

A.traffic lights B.underground floor C.a traffic inquiry system [答案]C There are three kinds of goals:short-term,medium-range and long-term goals.Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities,which we can apply on a daily basis.Such goals can be achieved in a week or less,or two weeks,or possibly months.It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation,our long-term goals can not amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals.Upon completing our short-term goals,we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed. The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals.They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year,or they could even extend for several years.Anytime you move a step at a time,you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed.As you complete each step,you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed.And as your list of completion dates grows,your motivation and desire will increase.Long-term goals maybe related to our dreams of the future.They might cover five years or more.Life is not a static thing.We should never allow along-term goal to limit us or our course of action. 21.Short-term goals are the ones that_________. A.motivate you over the long haul B.might be measured for many years C.keep you engaged on a daily basis [答案]C 22.The medium-range goals are built upon_________. A.belief and success B.the motivation and desire C.the completion of the short-term goals [答案]C 23.Once we set ourselves long-term goals,_________. A.we should stick to them until we complete them B.we may change our goals as we have new ideas and opportunities C.we had better wait for the exciting news of success [答案]B 24.What does the word“static”mean in the last paragraph? A.moving B.developing C.not moving [答案]C 25.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A.Anytime you move a step at a time,you may become discouraged. B.Short-term goals all help in achieving your long-term goals. C.Life is a static thing,thus never allowing along-term goal to limit us. [答案]B To minimize traffic jams in the city center and on major roads out of Sydney,the City's highway department will not agree to road closures scheduled for weekdays or Saturdays.On minor roads outside the city center,weekdays and Saturdays may be considered.You must apply for approval to do roadwork and other road-related activities,tree cutting and use of very large construction machinery,ladders etc.Please note that approval is needed if you plan to block the road or footpath. Applications to have a road closed to traffic must be completed and sent to the Department's Traffic Calming Committee at least a month before the scheduled date. Roads can be closed partially or fully,depending on your requirements.Partial road closures are only allowed in light traffic areas where·there will be at least 1 lane for traffic with extra traffic control measures to make sure 2-way traffic can continue to run for the duration of the work.Any change of traffic flow will require the proposal to be treated as a full road closure.For further information about a partial road closure,please refer to Contacts. If you are organizing a parade,march or other type of street-based event,approval is also required and we recommend you choose one of our 4 preferred routes.Choosing an existing route reduces the amount of planning you will need to do. 21.As a rule,Sydney’s highway department will agree to road closures in the city centre scheduled for_________. A.weekdays B.Saturdays C.Sundays [答案]C 22.If you want a road closed to traffic,you must complete your applications and send them to the re1evant committee at least_________before the scheduled date. A.a week B.30 days C.two months [答案]B 23.Partial of full road closures are decided by_________. A.the requirements from applicants B.the traffic flow C.the road conditions [答案]A 24.Which is NOT the condition for partial road closures according to the passage? A.In light traffic areas. B.On work days. C.There will be at least 1 lane for traffic during the work. [答案]B 25.Which is the best title of this passage? A.Road Closure Procedures in Sydney. B.Road Conditions in Sydney. C.Road Management in Sydney. [答案]A W Without good budget management,you are likely to overspend on marketing accidentally.Here are three steps that help to make a good marketing budget. Step 1:Organize financial information The first step is to be clear of your current financial situation.You need to know how much money your company makes monthly and the changes that might arise in the future.Although income flows change throughout the year,you must organize the information based on reliable revenue-the minimum amount of money your company makes each month. A realistic budget plan will always focus on the income that exceeds the expenses,not the total revenue that comes in.When you have determined the amount of disposable income available for the company,you should determine where the money will go. Step 2:Determine where you want to spend marketing funds After you know the total amount available to spend on marketing,the next step is how you plan to spend that money.Three main factors decide how you spend marketing funds:the budget amount,your past experiences,and where you can reach the right audience. You will start organizing how to spend the funds based on the amount.Besides,you need to consider the strategies that have worked in the past.Also,you need consider which marketing channels will allow you to reach the right audience. Step 3:Assess data and make appropriate changes The final step in building a good marketing budget is the analysis of the plan and any changes that may improve revenue.Ultimately,marketing is designed to bring in extra revenue.If the activity does not bring in any additional revenue over its cost,then it is better to change strategy and try something else. Assessing the data is a vital part of creating an effective marketing strategy.Evaluation begins with comparing past performance to the performance after marketing the product or services. However,a good budget alone is not enough.You have to take action and remain committed to following through your plan.By keeping the budget in mind when you make decisions,you will have the opportunity to work out different strategies to find the best solutions for your business goals and prevent overspending on marketing. 21.The budget plan should be based on the company’s reliable_________. A.expense B.income C.cost [答案]B 22.The underlined“disposable income”in Paragraph 3 means_________. A.total income B.previous income C.net income [答案]C 23.You have to be clear of_________when organizing financial information. A.the income and expenses B.the marketing fund C.the budget management [答案]A 24.The three main factors that decide how you spend marketing funds are_________. A.the money you have earned,the actual expenses and the money you will expend B.the budget amount,your past experiences and where you can reach the right audience C.the assets you have,the product and the income [答案]B 25.Keeping the budget in mind when making marketing decisions will avoid_________. A.using less than you earn B.using money unnecessarily C.using more than you earn [答案]C The International Food Safety Authorities Network (INFOSAN) With the rapid globalization of food production and trade,international issues related to food safety are likely to increase.Food safety authorities all over the world have realized that food safety problems should be carried out at both national and international levels.There is a pressing need for exchanging routine information on food safety issues,and sharing experiences and information quickly when a food safety related event takes place.

A.Every member state of INFOSAN B.Every member state of FAO C.Every member state of WHO [答案]A U Uncle Li and Uncle Wang are good friends.They live next to each other and their farms are both at the foot of the mountain.So they can help each other.But neither of them likes to use his head.They’re both poor though they work hard.Most villagers have built new houses,but they still live in the low and broken houses.They never find out why. Once Uncle Li went to town to buy some medicine for his wife.In the town he heard the apples in a city were expensive.He told Uncle Wang about it as soon as he went back.They decided to carry some apples to the city.They borrowed some money from their friends and bought nearly 1,000 kilograms of apples in the villages and carried them to the city on a tractor.Bad luck! A lot of apples have already been carried there when they arrived.A few days later they had to sell them at a low price (价格).They felt unhappy and returned to their village. “I can’t understand why we sustained (蒙受)losses in business while others always profit (盈利)” Uncle Li asked one day. “The tractor was too small.” Uncle Wang said without thinking.“We’11 carry more apples on a truck next time!” “I agree!”said Uncle Li.“How foolish (傻的)we were!” [选择题] ◆The two farmers carried the apples to the city to_________.

A.The two farmers found out why they were poor. B.The two farmers will soon get rich. C.Neither of the farmers is clever. [答案]C 第四大题 阅读理解判断题 A A question that often troubles food companies is how to control problems like rats and insects without harming the food.Pest control experts say poisons should never be used where they may enter food.They say the first line of defense against pests is to clean the places where the food is handled or stored. Floors,food preparation surfaces and tools can be disinfected with chemicals like chlorine,iodine or bromine.Food containers should be stored about half a meter off the ground and about half a meter away from any walls.Storage areas should be kept dry and clean. Containers for raw materials such as rice,wheat,etc.should be kept closed and clean.Any foodstuff split during delivery or handling should be cleared up both inside and outside the building.Pests enter a building from the outside,so pay attention to outer walls.Small stones can be used to cover the ground and block the growth of plants and the grass should be kept short to deny pests a place to live. Check that doors and windows are completely closed.Also any hole that might allow pests to enter a building should be filled.Rats can enter through a hole the size of a coin.A mouse can pass through a hole half that size. Supervisors should make a list of pest control measures to be taken by employees.This will aid the efforts and also help prepare for any inspections.In most countries,there is a food and drug administration bureau,or some agency with a similar name,which enforces rules nationwide,responsible for rules about the use of pesticides,etc.However,businesses where food is stored,prepared or sold must also follow state and local health laws.Most of these governmental departments or bureaus have their websites with information about food safety policies and other issues.People can easily access the information. 26.According to pest control experts,poisons should never be used as they may enter food.[答案]T 27.Food preparation surfaces and tools should be kept clean.[答案]T 28.Outer walls are used to stop pests from entering a building from the outside.[答案]T 29.People can easily access the information about food safety policies from the government departments and bureaus.[答案]F 30.The main idea of the passage is how to prevent plants and grass from growing.[答案]F A Quality Management System (QMS) should clearly understand customer requirements,and to provide good design,qualified production in an effective and efficient way. When the Quality Management System fails to fulfill its function and customer requirements are not met,customers might be upset;management and employees both might be unhappy,but its negative influence is not so wide-spread.Unluckily,some Quality Management System failures do make headlines. Here are three cases of famous quality management failures: 3 MILE ISLAND The worst nuclear disaster in U.S.history broke out at the 3 Mile Island reactor facility in eastern Pennsylvania in March 1979.Proper controls that should have been developed as part of routine safety procedures were not in place.Then the situation was made worse by human error because of the lack of proper training.The only new nuclear power stations built since that day were the ones already under construction. FORD PINTO The Ford Pinto is the most well-known and the worst disaster in the whole U.S.automobile industry in the 1970s.Apparently the entire U.S.auto industry decided to spend the 1970s resting on their laurels after building great cars that sold well during the sixties.Not only were many cars built in the 1970s ugly and poorly designed,they also became very unreliable after 40-50 thousand miles.The Pinto tops the list of QMS failures because of its dangerous design faults and the questionable ethical decisions made by top management. IPHONE 4 Apple almost lost its dominance in the smartphone market when it became clear that it was difficult to make a call using the much expected iPhone 4.Calls were dropped suddenly and frequently causing wide spread dissatisfaction among loyal customers who had upgraded to the new model early on.Independent tests showed that touching the left side of the case at a certain spot interrupted the signal and dropped the call – not a great feature for a handheld device mainly used to make calls.Meanwhile Apple continued to deny or minimize the problem.As the problem continued to make news headlines,Apple eventually agreed to a “voluntary” recall to correct the problem. All of the above famous quality management failures could probably have been prevented if the principles of a fully functioning quality management system had been in place. 1.A company should provide well designed products.[答案]T 2.A company should place company's interest at the first place.[答案]F 3.A company should reduce the amount of waste.[答案]T 4.A company should satisfy all employees' requirements.[答案]F 5.A company should produce qualified products.[答案]T B BEIJING’S ROADS FOR THE FUTURE The road system in Beijing’s central business district(CBD)is being re-designed to make public transportation easy and improve efficiency.

While volunteers may provide community service,not everyone taking part in a community service program is a volunteer,because not everyone is doing it through their own choice.Sometimes people are asked to do it by: ◆their government,as part of a citizenship requirement instead of military service; ◆the courts and other criminal justice punishments; ◆their school,to meet the requirements of a class,or to meet the requirements of graduation,or,in the case of parents,required to provide a certain number of hours of service in order for their child to be enrolled in a school or sports team. There are also people providing community service,but they receive some form of payment in return for their work. YOUTH COMMUNITY SERVICE Community service performed by young people,also known as youth service,is intended to strengthen young peoples' senses of civic engagement and community,and to help them achieve their educational,developmental and social goals. HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION Many educational institutions in the United States require students to perform community service hours to graduate from high school.In some high schools in Washington State,for example,students must complete 60 hours of community service to receive a diploma. CONDITIONS OF PARTICIPATION Contribution of service is a condition of enrollment in some programs.Most commonly,parents may be required to serve for their child to be enrolled in a school or sports team. COLLEGES Though technically not a requirement,many colleges make community service an unofficial requirement for acceptance.However,some colleges prefer work experience over community service,and some require that their students also participate in community service in order to graduate. [判断题] ◆The organizer is the beneficiary of community service.[答案]F ◆Some people who take part in community services are not volunteers.[答案]T ◆Most of the youth who volunteer in community service are motivated by personal purposes.[答案]F ◆In some high schools,students must complete certain hours of community service to receive a diploma.[答案]T ◆Every university considers community service is the most important experience for students among other practices,like internship.[答案]F Community service is a service or activity which is performed by someone or a group of people for the benefit of the public or public organizations.

Speakers of English as a second language will soon outnumber those who speak it as a first language. Around 750 million people are believed to speak English as a foreign language. English has an official or a special status in 75 countries with a total population of over 2 billion. The domination of the English language globally is a sure thing. English is the language of international communications, business, tourism, education, science, computer technology, media and the Internet. British colonialism in the 19th century and American capitalism and technological progress in the 20th century were undoubtedly the main causes for the spread of English throughout the world. From the fifteenth century, the British began to sail all over the world and became explorers, colonists and imperialists. They took the English language to many places. For the last hundred years, the USA has played a leading role in most parts of the world. The Hollywood film industry also attracted many foreign artists in quest of fame and fortune and the number of American films produced every year soon flooded the market. However, the future of English as a global language will depend very largely on the political, economic, demographic and cultural trends in the world. [判断题] ◆English will maintain its dominance because of its language advantage. [答案]F ◆The first paragraph shows that English has the largest population of native speakers in the world. [答案]F ◆English is the most widely used language in the world according to the second paragraph. [答案]T ◆American explorers sailed all over the world and took English to many places. [答案]F ◆The Hollywood films flooded the market because people in the world love English films. [答案]F Emergencies and disasters can occur any time without warning.The more you are prepared for them,the better you will be able to act,reducing panic and confusion when an emergency occurs. Emergency response plans(ERP s)are intended to provide clear and effective steps for managing an emergency.An ERP should deal with a variety of issues including evacuation of buildings,communication with local emergency services and the general public,individual roles and responsibilities during an emergency,and supplies and materials that may be needed. Follow these basic guidelines to develop an effective ERP for your workplace: Determine when an evacuation would be necessary. Choose primary and secondary evacuation routes and emergency exits.Make sure they are clearly marked and well lit.Post signs. Install emergency lighting in case a power cut occurs during an evacuation. Ensure that evacuation routes and emergency exits are wide enough for people to be evacuated,clear at all times,and unlikely to expose evacuating people to additional hazards. Coordinate your plan with the local emergency management office. Choose evacuation wardens who will help others during an evacuation and account for employees. Establish specific evacuation procedures.This includes a sample ERP to give you a better idea of what your procedures should include. Establish a system for accounting for evacuated employees. Hold emergency drills at least once a year to ensure that employees know what to do in an emergency and to test the effectiveness of emergency exit routes and procedures.Keep records of such drills. Consider the transportation needs of employees. Post evacuation procedures where employees can read them. Establish procedures for helping people with disabilities and people who do not speak your local language. Consider how you could quickly get important personal information about employees in an emergency(for example,contact numbers for their home,next-of-kin,or special medical conditions). 1.The emergency response plan is needed for reducing panic and confusion when an emergency occurs.[答案]T 2.Supply of basic necessities is not included in an ERP.[答案]F 3.According to the passage,the blocked emergency exits can help avoid further hazards.[答案]F 4.The evacuation plan of your workplace should be in line with that of local emergency management office.[答案]T 5.To ensure that employees know what to do in an emergency and to test the effectiveness of emergency exit routes,the emergency drills should be held once half a year.[答案]F H HOW TO PREPARE AN EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN FOR YOUR WORKPLACE Emergencies and disasters can occur any time without warning.The more you are prepared for them,the better you will be able to act,reducing panic and confusion when an emergency occurs.

Here are three cases of famous quality management failures: 3 MILE ISLAND The worst nuclear disaster in U.S.history broke out at the 3 Mile Island reactor facility in eastern Pennsylvania in March 1979.Proper controls that should have been developed as part of routine safety procedures were not in place.Then the situation was made worse by human error because of the lack of proper training.The only new nuclear power stations built since that day were the ones already under construction. FORD PINTO The Ford Pinto is the most well-known and the worst disaster in the whole U.S.automobile industry in the 1970s.Apparently the entire U.S.auto industry decided to spend the 1970s resting on their laurels after building great cars that sold well during the sixties.Not only were many cars built in the 1970s ugly and poorly designed,they also became very unreliable after 40-50 thousand miles.The Pinto tops the list of QMS failures because of its dangerous design faults and the questionable ethical decisions made by top management. IPHONE 4 Apple almost lost its dominance in the smartphone market when it became clear that it was difficult to make a call using the much expected iPhone 4.Calls were dropped suddenly and frequently causing wide spread dissatisfaction among loyal customers who had upgraded to the new model early on.Independent tests showed that touching the left side of the case at a certain spot interrupted the signal and dropped the call – not a great feature for a handheld device mainly used to make calls.Meanwhile Apple continued to deny or minimize the problem.As the problem continued to make news headlines,Apple eventually agreed to a “voluntary” recall to correct the problem. All of the above famous quality management failures could probably have been prevented if the principles of a fully functioning quality management system had been in place. 1.A company should provide well designed products.[答案]T 2.A company should place company's interest at the first place.[答案]F 3.A company should reduce the amount of waste.[答案]T 4.A company should satisfy all employees' requirements.[答案]F 5.A company should produce qualified products.[答案]T R Reading for pleasure is the easiest way to become a better reader in English. It is also the most important way. Some students say they don't want to read for pleasure. They say they want to use their time to learn the rules of the language and new words. They say that pleasure reading is too easy. Many experts(专家)say pleasure reading is very important for learning English. Dr. Stephen Krashen, a famous expert on learning languages, says that pleasure reading helps you learn many important things about English. Students learn more grammar and more words when they read for pleasure. They also learn more about good writing. Dr. Krashen tells us that pleasure reading helps each student in a different way. Each student needs to learn something different. Pleasure reading makes it possible for each student to learn what he or she needs. Reading for pleasure is not the same as studying. When you read for pleasure, you choose your own books, and you don't have to remember everything. There are no tests on your pleasure reading books. Pleasure reading will help you: ● learn how English speakers use English; ● read faster in English; ● find examples of good writing in English; ● learn new words; ● learn about the cultures of English speakers.

[答案]T ROAD CLOSURE PROCEDURES IN SYDNEY To minimize traffic jams in the city center and on major roads out of Sydney,the City’s highway department will not agree to road closures scheduled for weekdays or Saturdays.On minor roads outside the city center,weekdays and Saturdays may be considered.You must apply for approval to do roadwork and other road-related activities,tree cutting and use of very large construction machinery,ladders,etc.Please note that approval is needed if you plan to block the road or footpath. Applications to have a road closed to traffic must be completed and sent to the Department’s Traffic Calming Committee at least a month before the scheduled date. Roads can be closed partially or fully,depending on your requirements.Partial road closures are only allowed in light traffic areas where there will be at least 1 lane for traffic with extra traffic control measures to make sure 2-way traffic can continue to run for the duration of the work.Any change of traffic flow will require the proposal to be treated as a full road closure.For further information about a partial road closure,please refer to Contacts. If you are organizing a parade,march or other type of street-based event,approval is also required and we recommend you choose one of our 4 preferred routes.Choosing an existing route reduces the amount of planning you will need to do. 1.Closures scheduled for Sundays on minor roads outside the city center may be considered.[答案]F 2.You need to get approval if you plan to block the road or footpath.[答案]T 3.Roads can only be closed partially.[答案]F 4.If you choose an existing route for a parade,the amount of planning will be reduced.[答案]T 5.Road closure applications can be sent to the Department’s Traffic Calming Committee one week before the scheduled date.[答案]F S SAVE MONEY BY UNDERSTANDING WHY YOU SPEND IT To save money,you simply need to spend less than you earn.It is easy to say,but why is it so difficult to do? To answer this question,you need to study the factors that keep you spending all the time. EASY ACCESS TO CREDIT For most people,this is the biggest reason for overspending.People can easily get a credit card,simply by filling out a short form in a bank or jumping on their website.They can borrow money from banks to go shopping,even buy cars or houses.When you aren’t physically handing someone money or a check for a purchase,you will feel you are spending free money or you aren't spending money at all.Try using cash to get your spending under control. MISUSING CREDIT CARDS A credit card is an interest free short-term loan.When used as planned,this can be a powerful financial tool.The problem is when you begin to let the balance continue from month to month.If you make a $200 purchase on your credit card and find out that at the end of the month you can’t afford to repay the full amount,this is when the high interest rates on the cards really begin to hurt you.That is no way of saving money. GIVING IN TO TEMPTATION We all need to enjoy life,but don’t waste your financial future for a few guilty pleasures today if they aren’t in your budget.When you know that you can’t afford an activity,don’t give in.Instead,invite your friends over for a home dinner party,game night,or some other activities where you can still enjoy time together,but without breaking your budget. SPENDING TO FEEL GOOD Everyone enjoys getting something new-buying yourself something feels good.There is absolutely nothing wrong with this,as long as you don’t go overboard.You’ll feel good about your purchase whether you make it with cash or by credit card,but you'll feel even better when you don't have to spend the next two years trying to pay it off with 20% interest. 1.You have to pay for the credit card loans by the end of each month.[答案]T 2.Using a credit card to pay is spending free money.[答案]F 3.It’s easy to get a credit card but hard to make ends meet.[答案]T 4.If you suffer from a deficit this month,you simply have to pay it off by the original amount in the future.[答案]F 5.Spending to feel good means keeping your spending within the budget.[答案]T T To save money,you simply need to spend less than you earn.It is easy to say,but why is it so difficult to do?

INFOSAN is a joint program between the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).This global network includes 181 Member States.Each has a designated INFOSAN Emergency Contact Point which manages communication between national food safety authorities. The network aims to: Promote the rapid exchange of information during food safety related events; Share information on important food safety related issues of global interest; Promote partnership and cooperation between countries; Help countries strengthen their capacity to manage food safety risks. As part of its routine activities,the INFOSAN Secretariat publishes reports in six languages and provides members with summaries and guidance on relevant food safety issues. INFOSAN helps exchange food safety information and experience among its members.It is also a useful resource for other public health organizations which recognize INFOSAN as an organization through which findings of investigations and strategies for improving food safety may be shared. INFOSAN monitors possible international food safety related events in close cooperation with the WHO Alert and Response Operations program.INFOSAN can work with other international organizations to provide assistance to the countries or regions with emerging food safety events of possible international concern. 1.It is probable that there will be more and more safety related issues worldwide.[答案]T 2.Food safety authorities in each country believe that food safety problems should be solved within their country.[答案]F 3.The major duty of the INFOSAN Emergency Contact Point in each FAO member state is to manage communication between national food safety authorities.[答案]T 4.Public health organizations can get findings of investigations and strategies for food safety improvement from INFOSAN.[答案]T 5.INFOSAN monitors possible international events concerning food safety independently.[答案]F The road system in Beijing’s central business district(CBD)is being re-designed to make public transportation easy and improve efficiency. Plans for 45 roads within the CBD have been approved,measuring 41.5 kilometers in total.In addition to public buses,free or low price shuttle buses from residence areas to subway stations will also be provided for commuters. This is just over four times the number of roads opened in 2007,and will add another 15.5km to the existing road network. Besides roads,an underground traffic system has also been operating,which includes four new subway lines beneath the CBD. The underground connection system is made up of two levels.The first underground floor is set aside mainly for pedestrians and commercial facilities,while the second underground floor is planned for parking. The city has also invested 140 million yuan to setup a traffic inquiry system,through which the public can check traffic conditions online and see the most convenient routes on their GPS system.In the future,the CBD will be fully e over ed by an intelligent traffic control system. 26.The road system in Beijing’s central business district(CBD) is being designed again.[答案]T 27.Commuters can only take public buses from residence areas to subway stations.[答案]F 28.There-designed road will be 15.5 kilometers long.[答案]F 29.The underground traffic system has four new subway lines beneath the CBD.[答案]T 30.Both levels of the underground connection system are planned for parking.[答案]F The “war for talent” reads like headlines from many years ago,but it has never gone away,says Eleanor Nicker son,director of UK operations for Top Employers.Many companies they have researched are short of talents.Though the companies may receive many applications,they cannot find the people they want.

Yet not every employee feels that they can better their career chances.Some are still nervous about losing their jobs,despite a recent fall in unemployment,says the Trades Union Congress (TUC).TUC points out that some four-fifths of new jobs created have been in part of the economy where average pay rates are less than an hour since the recession began.Many of these jobs are on temporary or zero hours contracts.

History’s great achievers-Napoléon,da Vinci,and Mozart-have always managed themselves.But they are so unusual both in their talents and their accomplishments as to be considered rare exceptions.Now,most of us,even those of us with modest talents,will have to learn to manage ourselves.We will have to learn to develop ourselves.We will have to place ourselves where we can make the greatest contribution.And we will have to stay mentally alert and engaged during a 50-year working life,which means knowing how and when to change the work we do. 26.Companies today are responsible for employee’s career.[答案]F 27.It is the CEO who decides your place.[答案]F 28.You need to understand your company well so that you can do things well.[答案]F 29.Understanding yourself means knowing well about your strengths,weaknesses,your values,how you learn,how you do with others and so on.[答案]T 30.Ordinary people cannot manage themselves well.[答案]F THE INTERNATIONAL FOOD SAFETY AUTHORITIES NETWORK (INFOSAN) With the rapid globalization of food production and trade,international issues related to food safety are likely to increase.Food safety authorities all over the world have realized that food safety problems should be carried out at both national and international levels.There is a pressing need for exchanging routine information on food safety issues,and sharing experiences and information quickly when a food safety related event takes place.

First of all, we are extremely sorry for that unfortunate incident. Upon receiving your complaint, we immediately did careful investigation. After checking with technical staff and our supplier, we got to know, sadly, that the supplier is a new one. We were informed that the Bluetooth headset is not what you asked for in terms of such functions as taking pictures and messages. As we found out, it is mainly due to a small part which was incorrectly installed. However, it is not a major defect but an impropriate assembling. So we hereby promise to offer two options of solutions. You can either have a brand-new one with perfect function or have a full refund. What is more, on either case, we will provide you with a discounting card. Again, we are really sorry for what had happened and the inconvenience you may have experienced and will, upon confirmation of your final choice, do what we can to solve the problem as soon as possible. Yours Sincerely, Xiao Feng [试题]根据要求写一篇80词左右的作文。 Write a letter on a suggestion regarding opening a new theme park in the city to the board of directors,based on the following reasons: (1)Doing market research since August(online questionnaires and more than 200 respondents); (2)The city has a good location with a large population; (3)Our competitors plan to expand their business; (4)Needing to find out enough funds available.
