单选题(B) Scientists in India have invented a new way of producing electricity. Their invention does not get its power from oil, coal or other fuels. It produces electricity with the power of animals. India has about eighty million bullocks (小公牛). They do all kinds of jobs. They work in the fields. They pull vehicles through the streets. They carry water containers. Indian energy officials have been seeking ways to use less imported oil to provide energy. Scientists at the National Institute for Industrial Engineering in Bombay wondered if the millions of bullocks could help. Many villages in India lack electricity, but they have many bullocks. And often the animals are not working. One job done by bullocks is to pump water out of a well. The animals do this by walking around and around in a circle. As they walk, they turn a heavy stick that makes the pump move. This simple technology is centuries old. Scientists thought the same technology could be used to produce electricity. Bullocks walk in a circle only two or three times a minute. That is much too slow to produce electricity, but it can create enough power to turn a series of gears. A large gear sits next to a smaller gear. As the large gear turns, it causes the smaller gear to turn. That gear turns an even smaller one. Each gear moves faster because it is a little smaller. The smallest gear may turn extremely fast. Clocks operate with gears. So do cars, and so does the device invented by the Indian scientists to produce electricity. The United Nations Development Forum publication (出版社) reports that the idea is being tested at several places in India. The device is easy to operate and repair. And it can be moved easily. It costs about three hundred and seven dollars now to make such a device, but production of large numbers of them could cut the cost of each to about two hundred dollars.

单选题Business had better do some market research first to sell their products internationally, which is a lesson that learned by many companies, including some large American corporations have learnt the hard way. Names can sometimes be the problem. When General Motors introduced its Chevy Nova into Latin America, it overlooked the fact that Nova in Spanish means "It doesn"t go". Obviously, the Chevy Nova never went anywhere in Latin America. The slogan, on the other hand, is sometimes something that does work. No company knows this better than Pepsi-Cola, with its "Come alive with Pepsi!" campaign which was highly successful in the United States, and Pepsi translated its slogan literally for its international campaign. As it turned out, Pepsi was pleading with Germans to "Come out of the grave" and telling the Chinese that "Pepsi brings your ancestors back from the grave". The problem also involves picture and packaging. A smiling, round-checked baby has helped sell countless jars of Gerber baby food. So when Gerber marketed its products in Africa, it kept the picture of the baby on the jar. But Gerber did never realize that in many African countries, the picture on the jar shows what is inside the jar. Even cultural and religious factors can be involved. Thom McAn shoes have a Thorn McAn "signature" inside. To the Arabs, this signature looked like Arabic script for the word Allah, so some people felt the company was insulting God"s name by having people walk on it.

单选题A is for always getting to work on time. B is for being extremely busy. C is for the conscientious(勤勤恳恳的) way you do your job. You may be all these things at the office, and more. But when it comes to getting ahead, experts say, the ABCs of business should include a P, for politics, as in office politics. Dale Carnegie suggested as much more than 50 years ago: Hard work alone doesn"t ensure career advancement. You have to be able to sell yourself and your ideas, both publicly and behind the scenes. Yet, despite the obvious rewards of engaging in office politics—a better job, a raise, praise—many people are still unable—or unwilling—to "play the game." "People assume that office politics involves some manipulative (工于心计的) behavior," says Deborah Comer, an assistant professor of management at Hofstra University. "But polities derives from the word "polite". It can mean lobbying and forming associations. It can mean being kind and helpful, or even trying to please your superior, and then expecting something in return." In fact, today, experts define office politics as proper behavior used to pursue one"s own self-interest in the workplace. In many cases, this involves some form of socializing within the office environment—not just in large companies, but in small workplaces as well. "The first thing people are usually judged on is their ability to perform well on a consistent basis," says Neil P Lewis, a management psychologist. "But if two or three candidates are up for a promotion, each of whom has reasonably similar ability, a manager is going to promote the person he or she likes best. It"s simple human nature." Yet, psychologists say, many employees and employers have trouble with the concept of politics in the office. Some people, they say, have an idealistic vision of work and what it takes to succeed. Still others associate politics with flattery (奉承), fearful that, if they speak up for themselves, they may appear to be flattering their boss for favors. Experts suggest altering this negative picture by recognizing the need for some self-promotion.
