填空题The difficulty of holding onto good, experienced staff has always been a major issue with the majority of companies. High staff turnover can result in many problems. One of the most serious of these is the cost of continually having to find and train replacements. 41. ______ Most companies hope to recruit the right type of person in the first place. However, too much emphasis on qualifications and not enough on personality often leads to a company attracting the right standard. but not the right kind, of person. Selection tests can be used to indicate a candidate's suitability for the job they are applying for. They can also be used to identify existing staff who are suitable but who, initially, may not have been considered. 42. ______ It is important for companies to understand why employees move on to another employer. The reasons for staff resigning and the benefits offered by their new employer must be recorded. They can be the key to identifying any problem areas that might exist within an organization. It is essential, therefore, that employees who are about to disappear are interviewed before they depart, in order to discover why they are leaving. 43. ______ Analysis of these interviews has shown that a lack of appreciation is one of the main factors causing employees to look elsewhere for work. Managers should provide regular feedback to their staff. For example, when good work has been done it must be praised. If this is not done, employees will think their efforts are not appreciated. 44. ______ Communications within the organization are another consideration. If these are poor, employees will feel left out. This can be avoided through regular departmental and inter-departmental meetings, which are extremely valuable as means of passing on information throughout the company and keeping employees up to date with recent developments. They also serve to provide the opportunity for employees to express their opinions. 45. ______ Paying staff according to how they perform is another way of recognizing employee's efforts. If the company benefits from an employee's extra efforts, it is only reasonable that the employee should also receive some financial benefit. It is, however, important to avoid offering some member of staff the opportunity to improve their pay while excluding others. The reasons for staff resigning and the benefits offered by their new employer must be recorded. In cases where such difficulties might exist, a planned career progression for an individual staff member means that the pe4son knows exactly what to expect from the job and what is required from them[A] appreciation as the main factor[B] selection tests help in recruitment[C] praise the men who act well[D] to know why employees leave[E] reasonable reward and fair treatment[F] exchanges inside the company

填空题Seismologist David Oppenheimer of' the U. S. Geological Survey Earthquakes Hazards Team explains (as told to Katherine Harmon) : Traditional geothermal drilling bores into hot rock such as sandstone that has water or steam trapped in its pore spaces and natural fractures. When a drilled hole intersects these fractures, the water flashes into steam because of the sudden drop in pressure-like bubbles that come out of a soda bottle when the cap is removed. The steam surges into the well hole, and the steam pressure at the surface spins a turbine to generate electricity. Sometimes the plant returns some of the water back into the reservoir to keep water levels up. The drilling itself does not cause earthquakes, but the steam removal and water return can do so, by producing new instability along fault or fracture lines. (41)______________________ Researchers know they result from steam withdrawal or injection because when operators begin geothermal production in a new area, earthquakes begin and when production ends, the earthquakes stop. Many minor tremors occur, but quakes as large as magnitude 4.5 have been recorded. Residents of nearby Anderson Springs often feel tremors as small as magnitude 2.0 because the town sits only a couple of kilometers above the rock fractures. (42) ______________ When a large earthquake does occur, the public will ask whether the geothermal projects might have played a role in causing the rocks to shift along other faults. And researchers will have to use geodetic monitoring and other data to try to figure out whether it really was a factor in changing key stress dynamics. (43) ______________ Because the felsite has no natural pores, it also contains no water. To recover the heat, the project's operators would have needed to fracture the rock and circulate water through it. First, in the short phase of the project, they would have drilled into the felsite and injected water to fracture the rock, most likely generating earthquakes in the process. Then, aided by borehole cameras revealing in which direction the fractures formed, they would have drilled a second hole to intersect the new fractures and would have produced steam by pumping water through the hot fractures linking the wells. This dry-rock geothermal approach has the potential to harness much more heat than the traditional sandstone techniques, but it can also mean more earthquakes. (44)______________. Unfortunately, areas that are less tectonically active also have less accessible subterranean heat sources. (45)______________.[A] California, for example, has more heat (because of its location near tectonic plate margins) than, say, Texas. The whole country has some geothermal potential if we wanted to draw warmth for heating. But the resulting heat would not necessarily have the energy to spin large turbines for electricity generation.[B] At a long-term geothermal project in northern California known as the Geysers, the USGS has been monitoring seismic activity since 1975. Even though the area does not appear to have any large faults running through it, researchers record about 4,000 quakes above magnitude 1.0 every year.[C] All sources of energy-hydropower, nuclear, wind or coal—have advantages and disadvantages. Geothermal energy has the advantage of being clean and renewable, but earthquakes are a downside.[D] In addition to the traditional geothermal plants at the Geysers, a pilot project, which was suspended last September, intended to draw steam directly from the volcanic, nonporous rock called Msite that lies below the sandstone and is its heat source.[E] To control the earthquake risk, drillers would have tried to keep the size of the fractures small and to maintain steady water flow rates. The threshold goal for earthquakes is 2.0 or lower on the Richter scale. Such deep-drilling operations would not want a repeat of events in Basel, Switzerland, where a widely felt magnitude 3.4 quake in 2006 ultimately stopped a similar geothermal project.[F] Many researches have been finished during the past years, and the relationship between the earthquake and Geothermal energy has been proved, which orientated the direction to the use of Geothermal energy.[E] Geologists suspect that even larger earthquakes could occur on nearby faults such as the Maacama, which is adjacent to the Geysers fields. The extraction of water and heat from the porous sandstone causes it to contract, much as a sponge shrinks when it dries out.
填空题{{B}}Directions:{{/B}}The following paragraphs are given in a wrong order.

Paragraphs B and E have been correctly placed. Mark your answers on the ANSWER
SHEET. A. In recent years Purdue has
launched a battery of exploratory courses across disciplines to help students
get a better idea of their interests before they commit to a major. An academic
boot camp in the summer before freshman year is aimed at students who didn't
have access to advanced courses in high school to ensure they'll be prepared for
college coursework. The school is even considering switching to a trimester
system, which would aim to shorten students' time to degree by making more
courses available during the summer months. B. Another
graduation ceremony has come and gone, and Chauncey Woodard is still a student
at the University of Alabama. He came to UA in the spring of 2008 after some
time in community college, expecting to spend, at most, four years at the
school. After being forced to take a semester off in 2010 to save up more money
for his education, he expects to graduate in August 2013 at the earliest. "For
me to get my education, I either have to go deep in debt or drag it out like I'm
doing now," Woodard, a construction-engineering major, says. "You get to
see a lot of people move on, and you're still here. That kind of gets to you
around graduation." C. "It's a huge issue for society," says
Matthew Chingos, an author of Crossing the Finish Line: Completing College at
America's Public Universities. "It's a huge issue for the individual
students who are spending more money on tuition than they need to. The longer
they wait to graduate and get a job, those are extra years of their careers when
they're in college and not working and not making money." Chingos points out
that delayed graduation at public schools also affects taxpayers who are
subsidizing 'students' education. D. At Purdue University,
improving the four-year graduation rate is a priority for administrators. The
school hopes to improve its four-year rate from 42% to 50% by 2014 and to 70% in
the coming decade. "The biggest thing we can do to lower cost is make sure that
every student who wants to finish in four years has the ability do so," says Tim
Sands, acting president of Purdue. "If we can increase our graduation rate and
decrease time to degree modestly... we give more students an opportunity to get
a Purdue degree." E. Reasons for delaying graduation are
numerous. For students who choose to participate in co-ops or internships during
the school year, it can be tough to fit in all the necessary courses.
Overcrowded classes can make it impossible for students to fulfill degree
requirements in a timely manner. And the common practice of changing majors
midway through college can make a four-year degree impractical.
F. Woodard's not alone in extending his university studies beyond a t3lpical
senior year. While undergraduate education is typically billed as a four-year
experience, many students, particularly at public universities, actually take
five, six or even more years to attain a degree. According to the Department of
Education, fewer than 40% of students who enter college each year graduate
within four years, while almost 60% of students graduate in six years. At public
schools, less than a third of students graduate on time. G.
"We've got a long way to go," Purdue's Sands says. He recommends that students
take advantage of advisers and career counselors starting in their freshman year
so that they can develop a coherent plan for their time in college, whether it
be short or long. "Don't just go semester to semester. Really think ahead. If
they do that right off the bat, they're much more likely to be successful and
complete their studies in a reasonable amount of time."
