Joan: Come in, come in.Have a seat.Ah...uh...I want you to know this is going to hurt me more than it will hurt you.Carl: Yes, ma'am.But I'm not quite sure what you're talking about.Joan: You're fired.That's what I'm talking about.Carl: I find that surprising, Miss Jackson.After all, I sold twenty-five percent more of our products than any other salesperson.Joan: Look, I'm not here to argue.You're fired.Understand?
Carl: I understand perfectly.I just wonder what's going to happen to the contract I've been arranging.It would be a shame to lose it;it could mean a lot to our company.And I'm the only one who knows the details.Joan: No one is indispensable.Just clear out your desk, and that's the end of it.Do I make myself clear, Mr.Westlake?
Carl: Crystal clear--apart from one small detail.Joan: And what, pray tell, is that detail?
Carl: I'm not Mr.Westlake.I'm Carl Smith.Joan: Well then, that's a different kettle of fish, Mr.Smith.I know you've been working late almost every night and coming in on Saturdays to get work done.The company is very happy with your progress.Carl: That's good to know.I was beginning to think that I wasn't appreciated.Joan: You're doing well.We have approved your first salary increase.Carl: That's great!Thank you!I'll certainly try to live up to the trust you have demonstrated in me with this raise in pay.The modern concept of small office and home office, or small and home office, often shortened to SOHO, is concerned with businesses that employ from one to ten workers.Also known as a virtual business, the SOHO has not evolved beyond the idea of an independent business person who has a few support staff members.Business enterprises that are larger are often called Small and Medium-sized Enterprises.Before the 19th century and the spread of the industrial revolution around the globe, nearly all offices were small offices or home offices, with only a few exceptions.Most businesses were small, and so was the amount of paperwork that went with their business activities.At the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st, the term “Small or Home Office” and the acronym SOHO have been used to a great extent by companies that sell products to large numbers of small businesses with a small-sized office.Some products are often designed specifically for the SOHO market.Many books are written and sold specifically for this type of office to tell people how to equip a small office.Nowadays many consultants, lawyers, and real estate agents in small and medium-sized towns operate from such home offices.In the field of software development, engineers often have to work 20 hours or more at a stretch, so they can hardly adapt to normal office hours.They often work in small offices to have more freedom.People who don't understand what their employers expect them to do may be headed for one of the most common and yet most avoidable career traps.If your boss doesn't take the time to explain properly what you are expected to do in your position, then keep asking questions until you know precisely what it is.Don't limit your questions to matters of everyday routine.Lee Colby, a management consultant based in Minneapolis, offers his advice.He says you can ask
more significant questions like, “What are our department's goals? How does my work fit in with the overall objective of the company?”
That method helped Lisa James, an assistant manager at an electronics company.When James was transferred to a new department seven years ago, she found herself not only working for the manager of quality control, but assisting three other managers.Because the job was both demanding and ill-defined, James had to put in ten-hour days as well as take work home.To clarify what was expected of her and what she hoped to get from her job in terms of career development, she drafted a list of goals in collaboration with her principal boss.The list proved so well thought out that her boss used it as the basis for her annual performance reviews.Shortly afterwards, she was given a raise for her efficient work.If your boss is vague about what your goals should be, try this technique suggested by Atkin Simon, director of a Boston-based management-consulting firm: Read your position description, which most large firms provide, and identify the two or three most important tasks it mentions.Then meet with your boss, point out the tasks you've chosen and ask if they accurately reflect what your boss considers important.Sam: Tell me: Does this place look like a nursing home?
Sally: No.Why?
Sam: Do I look like a male nurse?
Sally: Not at all.Sam: Then why do my employees act as though this were a nursing home instead of a workplace?
Sally: You're obviously upset.What's wrong? Tell me.Sam: You're right.I'm upset about a lot of things.Sally: Can you tell me what the problems are? Maybe there's something I can do.Sam: First of all I'm upset because so many of the staff have been showing up late for work.Sally: It's true.A lot of people have been coming in late.They probably think you don't mind.You know there's a pretty relaxed atmosphere here.Sam: Maybe it's because I hang out with a lot of them outside the office.Sally: They must see you more as a buddy than a boss.It's because you're so friendly.Sam: You're right.They don't view me as an authority figure anymore.I'm afraid they don't respect me as a boss.Sally: So what are you going to do about it?
Sam: I'm going to change.No more Mr.Nice Guy.I'm going to start cracking the whip.Sally: When do you want this change to take place?
Sam: Starting today, I'm going to lay down the law.From now on, everyone in the company must follow regulations to the letter.Sally: I'll post a notice as soon as possible.What should it say?
Sam: No more punching in late.No more clocking out early.No more calling in sick without a good reason or without a doctor's note.Sally: Anything else?
Sam: No more personal phone calls or e-mails on company time!
Sally: All right.I'll get right on it!

Members of the city council and distinguished guests, it is my privilege to introduce to you today Mr.Robert Washington, chief of our city’s police force.He will address us on the subject of the Community Policing Program.Most of you know that Mr.Washington has a distinguished record as head of our police force for more than ten years.However, you may not know that he also holds a master’s degree in criminology and studied abroad for a year with the international police force which deals with crimes around the world.Mr.Washington first introduced the Community Policing Program 8 years ago.The idea behind the program is to get the police officers out of their cars and into our neighborhood when they can talk directly to merchants and residents about the real dynamics of our city.These officers do more than make arrests.They try to find ways to help solve the problems that contribute to crime in the first place.Often that means hooking people up with services offered by other city agencies, such as schools, hospitals, housing, drug treatment centers.And the program seems to be working: crime is down and our citizens report that they feel more secure.Today Mr.Washington is going to tell us more about this program.Now let’s welcome Mr.Robert Washington.26.What is the purpose of the speaker’s remarks?
He will address us on the subject of community policing program.27.What does the speaker say about Mr.Robert Washington?
Most of you know that Mr.Washington has a distinguished record as head of our police force for more than ten years.However, you may not know that he also holds a master’s degree in criminology and studied abroad for a year with the international police force which deals with crimes around the world.Mr.Washington first introduced the community policing program 8 years ago.28.What is the idea behind the Community Policing Program?
The idea behind the program is to get the police officers out of their cars and into our neighborhood when they can talk directly to merchants and residents about the real dynamics of our city.29.How has the Community Policing Program turned out to be?
And the program seems to be working, crime is down and our citizens report that they feel more secure.26 A)To introduce the chief of the city’s police force B)To comment on a talk by a distinguished guest C)To address the issue of community security D)To explain the functions of the city council 27 A)He has distinguished himself in city management B)He is head of the International Police Force C)He completed his higher education abroad D)He holds a master’s degree in criminology 28 A)To coordinate work among police departments B)To get police officers closer to the local people C)To help the residents in times of emergency D)To enable the police to take prompt action 29 A)Popular B)discouraging C)effective D)controversial
Passage Two
There are between 3000 and 6000 public languages in the world, and we must add approximately 6 billion private languages since each one of us necessarily has one.Considering these facts, the possibilities for breakdowns in communication seem infinite in number.However, we do communicate successfully from time to time.And we do learn to speak languages.But learning to speak languages seems to be a very mysterious process.For a long time, people thought that we learned a language only by imitation and association.For example, a baby touches a hot pot and starts to cry.The mother says, “Hot, hot!” And the baby, when it stops crying, imitates the mother and says, “Hot, hot!” However, Noam Chomsky, a famous expert in language, pointed out that although children do learn some words by imitation and association, they also combine words to make meaningful sentences in ways that are unique, unlearned and creative.Because young children can make sentences they have never heard before, Chomsky suggested that human infants are born with the ability to learn language.Chomsky meant that underneath all the differences between public and private languages, there is a universal language mechanism that makes it possible for us, as infants, to learn any language in the world.This theory explains the potential that human infants have for learning language.But it does not really explain how children come to use language in particular ways.Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.Question 30.Why does the speaker say there are great possibilities for communication breakdowns?
There are numerous public and private languages.Question 31.What is Chomsky’s point on the ability to learn a language?
Human infants are born with the ability to learn language and the potential to learn any language in the world.Question 32.What does Chomsky’s theory fail to explain according to the speaker? It does not really explain how children come to use language in particular ways.30 A)people differ greatly in their ability to communicate B)there are numerous languages in existence C)Most public languages are inherently vague D)Big gaps exist between private and public languages 31 A)it is a sign of human intelligence B)in improves with constant practice C)it is something we are born with D)it varies from person to person 32 A)how private languages are developed B)how different languages are related C)how people create their languages D)how children learn to use language

When US spacewoman Joan Higginbotham is not flying and working in space, she might be found somewhere on earth giving a speech.Higginbotham, who grew up in Chicago and became an engineer before joining NASA, that is the National Air and Space Administration, gives about a dozen speeches a year.Each speech is different because she tailors her remarks to each audience.Through interviews and E-mails, she finds out in advance her listeners educational level and what information they want to know.On the subject of space walks, for example, audiences vary in their interests and how much complexity they can comprehend.To elementary school children, Higginbotham may discuss a problem that many kids want to know about.“How do spacemen in a spacesuit eat, drink, and go to the bathroom?” Her answer is “the spacesuit is really a small spacecraft with room for food and water-containers, and a waste-collection system.” To a high school audience, she might satisfy a curiosity that often arises in her pre-speech interviews with students who obviously have seen many science fiction movies.“Do spacemen carry weapons in case they encounter enemies in space?” Her answer is “No”.To scientists, she might provide technical details on such topics as the design of spacesuits that protects spacemen from the deadly temperature extremes of space.Just as elaborate preparation is required for success in space, Higginbotham says that it’s important for speakers to learn as much as possible about their listeners before a speech because every audience is different.33.What did Joan Higginbotham do before joining in NASA? 34.How does Higginbotham prepare her speech on space walks? 35.What does the high school audience want to know about space travel? 33.A)she was a tailor B)she was an engineer C)she was an educator D)she was a public speaker 34.A)Basing them on science-fiction movies.B)Including interesting examples in them C)Adjusting them to different audiences D)Focusing on the latest progress in space science 35.A)Whether spacemen carry weapons B)How spacesuits protect spacemen C)How NASA trains its spacemen D)What spacemen cat and drink Section C 复合式听写
Crime is increasing worldwide.There is every reason to believe the(36)trend will continue through the next few decades.Crime rates have always been high in multicultural industrialized societies such as the United States.But a new(37)phenomenon has appeared on the world(38)scene-rapidly rising crime rates in nations that previously reported few(39)offenses.Street crimes such as robbery, rape,(41)murder and auto theft are clearly rising,(41)particularly in eastern European countries such as Hungary and in western European nations such as the United Kingdom.What is driving this crime(42)explosion? There are no simple answers.Still, there’re certain conditions(43)associated with rising crime.Increasing heterogeneity of populations, greater cultural pluralism, higher immigration, democratization of governments,(44)changing national borders, greater economic growth, and the lack of accepted social ideas of right and wrong.These conditions are increasing observable around the world.For instance, cultures that were previously isolated and homogeneous(同种类的)such as Japan, Denmark, and Greece(45)are now facing the sort of cultural variety that has been common in America for most of its history.Multiculturalism can be a rewarding, enriching experience, but it can also lead to a clash of values.Heterogeneity in societies will be the rule in the 21st century, and(46)failure to recognize and plan for such diversity can lead to serious crime problems.
