Before you speak to any audience, you should learn as much
about its members as possible. Only in that way can you best adapt the level of
your language and the content of your talk to your listeners.
41. Speaking to someone you know well.__________ Where are
you likely to speak? Certainly, in this class you'll give several talks, and
since you know most, if not all, of the students, you should face no major
problems in adapting your approach to them. Another speaking possibility exists
in your workplace. A third speaking possibility exists in any
organization (social, cultural, athletic, and so on) that you belong to. You may
be asked to speak at the next meeting or at the annual banquet. Here again, you
know the people involved, their background, their education level, and their
attitudes, and that's a tremendous advantage for you. Since we're upbeat and
positive in this course, we'll assume that you've given successful talks under
all three circumstances, and with this course under your belt, you can do it
again. Since good speakers are hard to find and word about them travels fast,
suppose that one day you get an invitation to speak to an organization in which
you don't know a soul. What do you do now? If you feel able to handle the topic
you're asked to speak on, accept this rare challenge. Here's where audience
analysis comes into play. Be sure to ask the person who invited you for
information on the members, information that encompasses a broad spectrum, such
as in the following areas. 42. How old are your
listeners? 43. Sex composition of your listeners.
44. Interest in topic.__________ 45. Interests or hobbies
of the listeners.__________ [A] If you're invited to speak to a
women's or men's organization, you know the answer to this question at once.
Quite often, however, audiences are mixed fairly evenly, although at times one
sex may predominate. [B] Do members of your prospective audience
spend evenings watching TV movies and drinking beer at a local tavern, or do
they read the Harvard Classics and attend concerts of Beethoven and Mozart? Do
they play bingo and 21, or do they pursue the questions the intriguing
intricacies of contract bridge and chess? Answers to these questions can help
you choose the most appropriate material and language for your audience. Your
choices can be crucial in determining the success or failure of your
presentation. [C] Are the members recent college graduates,
senior citizens, or business executives in midcareer? Just remember, age exerts
a powerful impact on people's attitudes, values and motivations.
[D] For example, your department manager may ask you to explain and
demonstrate a procedure to some fellow employee. Or she may select you to
address your department on behalf of the local blood donor drive. In both speech
situations—in class and on the job—you're familiar with your audience; you speak
their language; you have things in common with them. [E] Are you
aware of the educational background of your audience? How many of them have
doctoral degrees, master degrees or bachelor degrees? This will decide what kind
of language you should adopt and how much they can understand.
[F] Are the members of the organization interested in the topic or are
they required to attend regardless of their interest? If the latter is true,
what types of material will most likely pique their curiosity?

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.
