阅读理解Managers cannot always wait for information to arrive in bits and pieces from the marketing intelligence system. They often require formal studies of specific situations. For example, Toshiba wants to know how many and what kinds of people or companies will buy its new superfast laptop computer. Or Barat College in Lake Forest, Illinois, needs to know what percentage of its target market has heard of Barat, how they heard, what they know, and how they feel about Barat. In such situations, the marketing intelligence system will not provide the detailed information needed. Managers will need marketing research. We define marketing research as the systematic design, collection, analysis, and reporting of data and findings relevant to a specific marketing situation facing an organization. Every marketer needs research. Marketing researchers engage in a wide variety of activities, ranging from market potential and market share studies, to assessments of customer satisfaction and purchase behavior, to studies of pricing, distribution, and promotion activities. A company can conduct marketing research in its own research department or have some or all of it done outside. Although most large companies have their own marketing research departments, they often use outside firms to do special research tasks or studies. A company with no research department has to buy the services of research firms.

阅读理解If you feel tired all the time, you don''t necessarily need to go to bed earlier ---- the solution could be as simple as taking a five-minute afternoon nap. Children under five have an abundance of energy and one of the reasons is because they nap once or twice a day. Many sleep experts think we''re programmed to take a nap during the day, and getting back into this habit can be a solution for those who feel tired all the time. Prof. Chris Idzikowski of the Sleep Advisory and Assessment Center thinks that one can feel refreshed after just five minutes sleep. And research has shown that concentration and attention are improved after even a short nap. Sleep is genetically programmed in babies and it''s only as we get older that we learn to sleep for about eight hours a night and not at all during the day. But most research suggests that we are not physically designed to sleep for one long, single block. Before the working day became nine to five, all Western sleep patterns were more broken up. Research has shown that in the Middle Ages, people''s sleep quite often occurred in three distinct parts ---- a nap in the afternoon, an early morning nap and another, longer sleep until dawn. So if you do find yourself feeling sleepy through the day, don''t feel you''re being lazy by giving in to sleep and having a nap. Your increased energy and alertness will make the rest of your day extra productive.

阅读理解Strange things happen to time when you travel, because the earth is divided into twenty-four time zones, and one hour separate. You can have days with more or fewer than twenty-four hours, and weeks with more or fewer than seven days. If you make a five-day trip across the Atlantic Ocean, your ship enters a different time zone every day. As you enter each zone, the time changes one hour. Traveling west, you set your clock back; traveling east, you set it ahead. Each day of your trip has either twenty-five or twenty-three hours. If you travel by ship across the Pacific, you cross the international date line. By agreement, this is the. point where a new day begins. When you cross the line, you change your calendar one full day, backward or forward. Traveling east, today becomes yesterday; traveling west, it is tomorrow.

At school, kids laugh at me because of the way I walk and run and talk. I have cerebral palsy, just want one day where no one laughs at me or makes fun of me. Love, Amy The next day, her letter to Santa made the front page of the Newspaper. The story spread quickly. All across the country, newspapers and radio and television stations reported the story of the little girl, who asked for such a simple, yet remarkable, Christmas gift ---- just one day without teasing. During that unforgettable Christmas season, over two thousand people from all over the world sent Amy letters of friendship and support. Amy did get her wish of a special day without teasing at school. That year, the mayor officially proclaimed December 21st as Amy Day throughout the city. The mayor explained that by daring to make such a simple wish, Amy taught a universal lesson. "Everyone," said the mayor," wants and deserves to be treated with respect, dignity and warmth."

阅读理解Overhead bridges are found in many parts of Singapore, especially in places where traffic is heavy and crossing the road is dangerous. The purpose of these bridges is to enable people to cross roads safely. Overhead bridges are used in very much the same way as zebra crossing(斑马线). They are more efficient although less convenient because people have to climb up a long flight of steps. This is inconvenient especially to older people. When people use an overhead bridge, they don''t hold up traffic. However, when they cross a busy road using a zebra crossing, traffic is held up. This is why the government has built up many overhead bridges to help people and to keep traffic moving at the same time. For their own safety, people should be encouraged to use them instead of risking their lives by dashing(冲，闯)across the road. Old people, however, may find it a little difficult climbing up and down the steps, but it is still much safer than walking across the road with all the danger of moving traffic. Overhead bridges serve a very useful purpose. This will prevent unnecessary accidents and loss of life.

阅读理解For some employers, the policy of lifelong employment is particularly important because it means that they can put money and effort into their staff(职员) training and make them loyal to the company. What they do is to select young people who have potential(潜能) and who can be trained. They then give the young people the kinds of skills that will make them suitable employees for the company. In other words, they adjust their training to their particular needs. One recently employed graduate says that she is receiving a great deal of valuable training from the company. "This means that I will be a loyal employee," she says. "And it also means that the company will want to keep me. I am an important investment for them. So the policy is a good one because it benefits both the employer and the employee." Recently, however, attitudes towards lifelong employment are beginning to change. Employees are slowly beginning to accept the idea that lifelong employment is not always in their best interest and that changing firms can have career advantages.
