It is hardly necessary to point out that we live in a world of
increasing industrialization. While this process enables us to raise our
standard of living at an ever-accelerating rate, it also leads to a
corresponding growth of interdependence between the different regions of, the
world. 41) ______. What, then, is to be done?
Although it is difficult to know where to begin to deal with such a large
subject, the first step is perhaps to consider the main economic difficulties an
underdeveloped or emerging region has to face. 42) ______ A
number of quite common occurrences are therefore sufficient to cause
immediate-and serious interference with this. export production: unfavorable
weather conditions, plant or animal epidemics, the exhaustion of soil fertility
or mineral deposits, the development of substitute products in the
industrialized regions, etc. The sensitivity of the economy is greatly
intensified in cases where exports are confined only to one or two
products--"monocultures" as they are sometimes called. 43)
______ This also applies to the manufactured goods required to provide their
populations with the "necessities of life". This economic structure makes it
difficult for them to avoid being politically dependent on the countries which
absorb their exports and provide their essential imports. Since,
under modern conditions, a rapid rise in population is a phenomenon closely
associated with underdevelopment. This cause alone can subject the economy to
severe and continuous stress. 44) ______ In the first place, to
set up modern industries necessitates capital on a large scale, which only
industrialized regions are able to provider secondly, they lack the necessary
trained manpower; thirdly, their industries--when established--are usually not
efficient enough to compete with foreign imports, and any restriction on these
imports is likely to lead to counter-action against their own exports.
From another point of view, it is necessary to bear in mind that there are
invariably political, educational, social and psychological obstacles which tend
to interfere seriously with any measures taken to deal with the economic
difficulties outlined above.45) ______. To conclude, it
seems clear that if we are to succeed in solving the many inter-related problems
of underdevelopment, only the fullest and most intelligent use of the resources
of all branches of science will enable us to do so. {{B}}Notes:{{/B}} be
orientated... toward 被引导到......。 monoculture 单一作物耕种。[A] For example, the
economies of such countries are orientated primarily toward the production of
raw materials, i. e. agricultural and mineral products; these are then exported
to the industrialized countries.[B] Given these conditions, it is easy to
see that any permanent economic or political instability in one area is bound to
have an increasingly serious effect upon the rest of the world. Since the main
source of such instability is underdevelopment, it is clear that this now
constitutes a problem of international dimensions.[C] As far as "necessities
of life" are concerned, they represent a concept which is continually being
enlarged through the mass media of communication such as newspapers, films, the
radio and advertising.[D] Although it is obvious that industrialization is
the key to development, it is usually very difficult for emerging countries to
carry out plans of this nature.[E] Being under-industrialized, these
countries are largely dependent on imports to supply the equipment needed to
produce the raw materials they export.[F] To consider 0nly one point: it is
obviously useless to devote great efforts and expense to education, technical
training and planning if, for psychological reasons, the population as a whole
fails to turn theory into effective action.[G] This sudden increase in the
population of the underdeveloped countries has come at a difficult time. Even if
their population had not grown so fast they would have been facing a desperate
struggle to bring the standard of living of their people up.

填空题{{B}}Directions:{{/B}} You are going to read a text about Sexual
harassment, followed by a list of examples. Choose the best example from
the list A-F for each numbered subheading (41- 45). There is one extra example
which you do not need to use. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
HERE'S A TALE OF TWO COMPANIES. Both are foreign owned, both
are embroiled in scandals are foreign owned, both are embroiled in scandals
involving allegations of sexual harassment. Company A is confronted with the
problem and punishes top execs. Company B stonewalls and mounts an aggressive
campaign to discredit its accusers and portray itself as a victim of corporate
slander. (41) {{B}}For business schools looking for a few good
case studies in damage control, last week was about as good as it gets.{{/B}} One
was Swedish pharmaceuticals company Astra USA, a maker of asthma medications and
the popular anesthetic Xylocaine. Facing similar charges, Mitsubishi Motor
manufacturing of America opted for in your-face denial. Who did it right? It's
too soon to know for sure. Astra's strategy may seem smarter. Financially
speaking, at least, one can see why Mitsubishi is reluctant to issue a public
mea culpa. Fessing up could expose it to as much as $ 200 million in
damages. Such controversies are no rarity these days. The Equal
Employment Opportunity commission alone received more than 15, 000 complaints of
sexual harassment last year, more than twice as many as in 1991. Its suit
against Mitsubishi, filed last month, may turn out to be by far the biggest
ever—and could eventually involve as many as two thirds of the company's 900
female workers. (42){{B}} Mitsubishi's response was clear from the
beginning.{{/B}} When the EEOC announced its case against the Illinois automaker,
the company dispatched busloads of workers to picket the agency's Chicago
offices. Attorneys for Mitsubishi will no doubt probe the private lives of the
women lodging complaints, and may even accuse them of "Japanbashing."
Mitsubishi's brass in Tokyo seemed a bit taken aback by the ferocity of the
counteroffensive, to the point of suggesting that maybe the case could be
quietly settled. (43){{B}}Could such tactics be effective?{{/B}} If
aggressive PR makes people doubt the allegations against the company, or
encourages federal investigators to settle on more favorable terms, then the
strategy will have succeeded. But there are risks, especially for consumer
companies like Mitsubishi. (44){{B}} That's no small threat,
considering that Mitsubishi is struggling to turn a profit in this
country.{{/B}} (45){{B}}Astra's strategy seems savier.{{/B}} Its
openness and prompt response might help it evade punitive damages, should any of
the complaints go to a jury. In fact, that may be a chief reason the company
acted even before it completed its own investigation. That said, Astra is in the
soup to begin with because it had no adequate mechanisms for reporting
incidents, and because it failed to deal with its problems before they became
public. Women have complained of harassment at the company for more than a
decade. Business Week reports incidents ranging from gropings at company
retreats to suggestions that female sales reps could advance their careers by
putting out sexually for their bosses—including the head of the company, Lars
Bildman. (His lawyer denies the allegations, as do the other executives.) So
far, Astra itself has offered no evidence suggesting any of the three are
guilty. Both companies now promise to do better. Astra is overhauling its
corporate personnel policies and plans to train managers on how to handle issues
of sexual discrimination. So is Mitsubishi. Says the automaker's general counsel
Gary Shultz: "We are going to become the model in handing sexual-harassment
and-discrimination cases." That remains to be seen. If these sorts of scandals
force companies to set up rules that actually work, that may be the best case
study of all. [A] That's precisely what the company did in
response to a prior sexual-harassment suit filed by 29 women in 1994.
[B] "A great deal of attention should be paid to these affairs." Says
Mitsubishis's spokesman. [C] But "we're taking these allegations
very seriously," says Astra spokesman Benjamin Kincannon. [D]
Outraged by the automaker's seeming disregard of its problems, perennial
presidential hopeful Jesse Jackson and the National Organization for Women
called on car buyers to boycott the company. [E] When business
Week published tales of wide-ranging abuse at Astra's American subsidiary,
outside Boston, the company quickly faced up to the problem and suspended its U.
S. chief executive, along with two top lieutenants. [F] Prof.
Martin Stoller, a crisis-management expert at Northwestern University, thinks
so. "The aim of crisis management is to stop the attackers," he says.

填空题Translate the following two paragraphs from English into Chinese.(北科技大学2006研,考试科目:基础英语)Aside from Charles Darwin, most students of animal behavior in the past believed that animals didn"t have emotions—or that if they did, we"d never know. Over the years, the belief hardened into dogma. Then, in the mid-60s, came Jane Goodall. Since she had little scientific training, she had never been indoctrinated with behaviorist theory. "But I"d had this amazing teacher my whole life, "she says. That would be Rusty, a little black mongrel who lived at a hotel in her childhood neighborhood. "He went everywhere with me, and he didn"t even belong to me, "she says. "At the hotel he was disobedient, but he was beautifully behaved and sensitive with me. Of course, I thought animals had emotions, personalities, minds, How could I not?" Goodall unknowingly rebelled against standard scientific practices in the wilds of Africa, giving her chimps names instead of impersonal numbers and describing their behavior with words like "joy", "depression" and "grief". The dens at Cambridge University rolled their eyes, but her studies were ultimately irrefutable. They might never have happened, Goodall notes, if she hadn"t preferred Rusty to "the scientific treadmill".

填空题A. Not giving bonus to employees who deserve it
B. Not giving positive information
C. Not linking individual jobs to the big picture
D. Not recognizing and rewarding great performance
E. Failure to get employees obsessive about winning
F. Not giving feedback
G. Failure to give a clear vision of winning
Over the years, Gallup has surveyed millions of employees and customers on a variety of workplace issues. One very interesting fact emerges from all their research. Of all the employees Gallup has surveyed, just over half have a clear understanding of what"s expected of them when they show up to work every day.
And we wonder why excellence is such a rare commodity in the corporate world! As leaders, the things we don"t do or say often have more of an impact than those that we do. So I took my own informal poll and came up with the top five things managers
don"t
do that undermine excellence in organizations.
1
Nothing is more important to creating a culture of excellence than defining what winning looks like for your organization, for teams and for individuals. Having a clear definition of winning provides focus and clarity at every level. It gets everyone aligned and moving in the same direction. It motivates and inspires people to perform at their best. And when unexpected adversity occurs, it gives people an anchor to rally around and keep their energy and spirits high.
2
It"s not enough just todefine winning. To keep employees focused on winning, you have to infuse it into your employees" minds! Otherwise, people get so distracted by everything they have on their plates that they lose sight of the big picture.
3
Today"s employees want feedback, and lots of it! Without it, people don"t know where they stand in regards to performance expectations. More important, when you don"t tell employees how they"re doing, it sends the message that you don"t care. Without feedback, people make up information to fill the void. This made-up information is almost always negative. Giving regular feedback helps to prevent destructive "information gaps," and strengthens relationships between employees and their supervisors. It also leads to improved work quality, increased accountability, and a higher-performing work environment.
4
Most employees want to feel like they"re doing more than just earning a paycheck. Start by making sure every individual job actually supports getting to your destination. Then let people know—specifically—how their jobs contribute to winning and why it"s so important for them to perform at a high level. This makes it easier to set priorities, make decisions that support reaching your destination, and eliminate activities that get in the way of achieving the goal.
5
As leaders, we all know we need to acknowledge and reward employees for top performance. And I"m not talking about an automatic 1% bonus at the end of the year. I"m talking about small, ongoing, personalized rewards that show employees you really appreciate the effort they put in.
Nothing lets the air out of the excellence balloon quicker than a perceived attitude of indifference on the part of management. And nothing shouts "indifference" louder than failing to perform your job as a leader. Put these five tasks on your daily to-do list and watch your employees" performance soar! Don"t do them and don"t be surprised by a lack of excellence in your organization.

填空题[A] What route does HIV take after it enters the body to destroy the immune system?[B] How and when did the long-standing belief concerning AIDS and HIV crop up?[C] What is the most effective anti-HIV therapy?[D] How does HIV subvert the immune system?[E] In the absence of a vaccine, how can HIV be stopped?[F] Why does AIDS predispose infected persons to certain types of cancer and infections? In the 20 years since the first cases of AIDS were detected, scientists say they have learned more about this viral disease than any other. Yet Peter Plot, who directs the United Nations AIDS program, and Stefano gella of Rome, president of the International AIDS Society, and other experts say reviewing unanswered questions could prove useful as a measure of progress for AIDS and other diseases. Among the important broader scientific questions that remain: 41. ______ A long-standing belief is that cancer cells constantly develop and are held in check by a healthy immune system. But AIDS has challenged that belief. People with AIDS are much more prone to certain cancers like non-Hodgkins lymphomas and Kaposi's sarcoms, but not to breast, colon and lung, the most common cancers in the United States. This pattern suggests that an impaired immune system, at least the type that occurs in AIDS, does not allow common cancers to develop. 42. ______ When HIV is transmitted sexually, the virus must cross a tissue barrier to enter the body. How that happens is still unclear. The virus might invade directly or be carried by a series of different kinds of cells. Eventually HIV travels through lymph vessels to lymph nodes and the rest of the lymph system. But what is not known is how the virus proceeds to destroy the body's CD-4 cells that are needed to combat invading infectious agents. 43. ______ Although HIV kills the immune cells sent to kill the virus, there is widespread variation in the rate at which HIV infected people become ill with AIDS. So scientists ask: Can the elements of the immune system responsible for that variability be identified? If so, can they be used to stop progression to AIDS in infected individuals and possibly prevent infection in the first place? 44. ______ In theory, early treatment should offer the best chance of preserving immune function. But the new drugs do not completely eliminate HIV from the body so the medicines, which can have dangerous side effects, will have to be taken for a lifetime and perhaps changed to combat resistance. The new policy is expected to recommend that treatment be deferred until there are signs the immune system is weakening. Is a vaccine possible? There is little question that an effective vaccine is crucial to controlling the epidemic. Yet only one has reached the stage of full testing, and there is wide controversy over the degree of protection it will provide. HIV strains that are transmitted in various areas of the world differ genetically. It is not known whether a vaccine derived from one type of HIV will confer protection against other types. 45. ______ Without more incisive, focused behavioral research, prevention messages alone will not put an end to the global epidemic.
