Directions: There are two passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice. This section totals 20 points, two points for each question.

Questions 41 to 50 are based on the following passage.

1Ivester, a factory foreman’s son and former accountant, stepped in smoothly to run Coca-Cola as CEO following the death of champion wealth creator Roberto Goizueta. Early in his job as Coke’s chief, Goizueta had recognized Ivester’s drive, commenting that he was the hardest-working man he had ever met. Together the two changed the company’s operations and capital structure to maximize shareholder value.

2Both of Ivester’s parents were factory workers from a tiny mill town in Georgia. His parents were children of the depression, he recalls, ‘strong savers, very strong religious values,’ and had very high expectations for their only son. If he got an A, his father would say, ‘They give

A pluses, don’t they?’

3Dough Ivester is the guy who for nearly two years worked constantly to provide essential support to Roberto Goizueta as he not only turned Coca-Cola around but made it into a powerhouse. If you want to know just how driven Ivester is, know that more than a decade ago he set himself the goal of becoming the CEO and chairman of Coca-Cola. Then he put on paper the dates by which he intended to do that.

4By comparison with Goizueta, Ivester is an accountant by training, an introvert by nature. He worked systematically to obtain the breadth needed to be a modern chief executive – getting media coaching and spending three year’s worth of Saturdays, six hours at a time, being tutored in marketing.

5He is big on discipline, which to him means: be where you’re supposed to be. Dress the part (he is opposed to casual Fridays). Return phone calls promptly (employees know never to get too far away from their office voice-mail, even on weekends). Still, when directing his troops, he asks them to set ‘aspirations’ (difficult targets).

6Hierarchy is out –it slows everything down; he communicates freely with people at all levels. The ‘conventional’desk job is also out. Ivester prefers that employees think of themselves as knowledge workers –their office is the information they carry around with them, supported by technology that allows them to work anywhere. This really matters when your business is as large as Coke’s, which gets 80% of its profit from overseas.

7At Coke, business planning is no longer an annual ritual but a continual discussion –sometimes via voice-mail – among top executives. Technology is not just nice; it’s crucial.

Huge volumes of information don’t frighten Ivester; he insists that they are necessary for ‘real time’decision-making. With past-generation executives, their style was more ‘don’t bring me your problems, bring me your solutions,’ says Tim Haas, Senior Vice President and Head of Latin America. ‘Dough thrives on finding the solutions.’‘In a world this complicated and fast-moving, a CEO can’t afford to sit in the executive suite and guess,’Ivester says. He believes that many of America’s executives ‘are getting terribly isolated.’

41. The writer says that ‘Goizueta had recognized Ivester’s drive’ (Paragraph 1). What does drive

mean?

A. Talent.

B. Genius.

C. Energy.

D. Mind.

42. What is Dough Ivester’s previous job?

A. Foreman.

B. Accountant.

C. Teacher.

D. CEO.

43. ‘They give A pluses, don’t they?’ (Paragraph 2) Who is Ivester’s father referring to when he

says they?

A. Ivester’s teachers.

B. Ivester’s parents.

C. Ivester’s classmates.

D. Ivester’s colleagues.

44. Which of the following words refers to a time of high unemployment and poverty?

(Paragraph 2)

A. Mill.

B. Religion.

C. Saver.

D. Depression.

45. Which of the following words means ‘very determined to succeed’? (Paragraph 3)

A. Powerhouse.

B. Constantly.

C. Driven.

D. Set.

46. What does the sentence ‘Dress the part (he is opposed to casual Fridays)’? (Paragraph 5)

A. Always wear uniforms at work.

B. Always wear casually at work.

C. Always dress properly for work.

D. Always dress the way you like.

47. Where does Coca-Cola’s most profits come from?

A. Americas.

B. Europe.

C. Asia.

D. Overseas.

48. Ivester believes that many American executives ‘are getting terribly isolated.’ What is Ivester

doing to avoid becoming cut off from his staff?

A. Considering everything in terms of people at all levels.

B. Satisfying what people at all levels require.

C. Working with people at all levels.

D. Communicating freely with people at all levels.

49. Which of the following words means ‘Get a feeling of satisfaction from doing something’?

(Paragraph 7)

A. Afford.

B. Thrive.

C. Isolate.

D. Insist.

50. The most suitable title for this passage may be _______.

A. President of Coca-Cola

B. Chief Executives of Coca-Cola

C. The Real Douglas Ivester

D. Focus on Douglas Ivester

Questions 51 to 60 are based on the following passage.

1Steve Redwood, a London-based management consultant with Price Waterhouse, tells of a client who had brought together a team from eight different countries to work on a project.

‘T he national stereotypes applied,’ he says. ‘The people from Switzerland and Germany were mainly interested in the way the project organized. The people from Spain took a much more intuitive approach. The British had a high level of skepticism about whether the whole thing really mattered. Language was not the issue. It was more basic than that.’

2Behind this lies the most fundamental problem of all: the fact that outside a handful of companies – Lowell Bryan, a senior partner with McKinsey in New York puts it at between a dozen and 20 worldwide – even the biggest corporations are dominated by the culture of the home country.

3‘Outside that handful,’ Mr Bryan says, ‘companies are very German, or very British, or very American. One big difference with American companies is they think globalization means Americanizing the world. Others don’t have that arrogance.’

4If top management all come from the home country, that makes it much more difficult to attract and keep a global pool of talent. ‘People know when they fit in and when they don’t,’Mr Bryan says. ‘That’s true even of national companies: there’s a tendency for people to have gone to the same school, or all have trained as engineers. It’s even more true when it comes to where you grew up.’

5The problem lies not in attracting people – a talented Indian or Korean manager will typically want early experience with a multinational –but in keeping them. ‘People will join the company to learn,’ Mr Bryan says, ‘but unless they feel they’re part of the company, they’re going to leave, and exploit the brand status of the company in their next job.’

6Given the importance of local cultures within the global company, an obvious question is how to appraise and identify talent around the world on a consistent basis. Richard Greenhalgh, head of management development and training at Unilever, says that the company has been working on this for the past four years. ‘We’ve been developing a set of

11 management competencies we can use worldwide,’ he says.

7‘The aim is to have a clear objective measure of potential. We measure such things as entrepreneurial drive, the ability to lead and develop others, and integrity. That makes up a common core of behaviors. We’ve tested it, and so far it seems to be culturally transferable.’

51. Which expression in Paragraph 1 matches the meaning ‘someone whose job is to give advice

to companies’?

A. Corporate leader.

B. Top manager.

C. Management consultant.

D. Corporate management.

52. Which expression in Paragraph 2 matches the meaning ‘a basic difficulty’?

A. Home country.

B. fundamental problem.

C. Management consultant.

D. Intuitive approach.

53. In Paragraph 3, ‘globalization’ means _______.

A. operation in America

B. operation in the home country

C. operation in many places

D. operation all around the world

54. According to Paragraphs 1-4, which of the following statements is true?

A. Managers from different countries approach tasks in different ways.

B. Lots of companies worldwide are truly international.

C. American companies think that globalization means developing an international culture.

D. In national companies, it’s common for people to come from different backgrounds.

55. In Paragraph 5, the problem with employing people with different national backgrounds is

_______.

A. recruiting them

B. motivating them

C. developing them

D. making them stay

56. In Paragraph 5, if they don’t feel part of the company, they will _______.

A. stay

B. leave

C. cause trouble

D. beat employers

57. In Paragraph 5, in applying for their next job, they will _______.

A. mention the company they have left so that people know where they have worked

B. not mention the company they have left

C. criticize the company they have left

D. explore the company they have left

58. In Paragraph 6, if you do something on a _______ basis, you use the same standards and rules

in every situation.

A. given

B. local

C. worldwide

D. consistent

59. In Paragraph 6, if something that is used in one culture can be used in another, it is culturally

_______.

A. made

B. entrepreneurial

C. transferable

D. potential

60. The most suitable title for this passage may be _______.

A. Corporate Culture

B. National Characteristics

C. International Integrity

D. Corporate Culture and National Characteristics ★答题卡空间有限,以下部分请注意控制答题篇幅。

Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly(肚子) or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really kn ow their business do not follow other people’s rule.They make their own rules. Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar(奇特的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easy to work in that way. Now the very same thing is true to literature(文学). And the question, "How shall I begin?" only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is,

BEC商务英语高级真题及答案(5)

BEC商务英语高级真题及答案(5) In the last few years, managers throughout industry have seen more changes than many of them could have expected to see in their entire working lives having to communicate information which often leads to feelings of insecurity has become a key activity. From being regarded as relatively unimportant in many companies , management employee communication has become a central corporate need. Concordia International provides a good example of a company that has adjusted well to the changing needs for communication . since 1995 , Concordia has been turned inside-out and upside-down, to ensure that it is a marketing –led, customer-responsive business, one that looks outwards at customers and competitors, rather than inwards at its own processes and the way things were done in the past. In the last eight years, Concordia has reduced its workforce by more than 80.000 people - or 35% -on a voluntary basis, with further downsizing anticipated. From being an engineering company, Concordia is now remaking itself as a service company. The role of employee communication in such a context is to build people’s self-confidence, to persuade them that, although it is inevitable that the changes will go ahead, they also bring with them new opportunities for employees. However, this is not an easy task. People tend to be skeptical of these claims and to feel that they are losing touch with the company they have worked for over many years. This is understandable, since many of the old certainties are being swept away , including the core activities of the company they work for. Above all , they have had to face up to the fact that they no longer have a job for life. Research indicates that people respond to this predicament in a variety of ways.

最新商务英语(BEC)中级考试真题及答案

最新商务英语(BEC)中级考试真题及答案 THE ART OF PERSUASION 'Let me send you our brochure'is probably the most commonly used phrase in business.But all too often,it can spell the end of a customer enquiry because many brochures appear to be produced not to clarify and to excite but to confuse.So what goes wrong and how can it be put right?Too often,businesses fail to ask themselves critical questions like,'Who will the brochure be sent to?''What do we want to achieve with it?'The truth is that a brochure has usually been produced for no other reason than that the competition has one. However,with a little research,it often transpires that what the client wants is a mixture:part mail shot,part glossy corporate brochure and part product catalogue-a combination rarely found. Having said that,the budget is likely to be finite.There may not be enough money to meet all three marketing needs,so the first task is to plan the brochure,taking into account the most significant of these.The other requirements will have to be met in a different way. After all,introducing the company's product range to new customers by mail is a different task from selling a new season's collection to existing customers.

III.Read the article and choose one best answer to each of the following multiple choice questions according to the article ( 40%): New Economy As America emerges from what may be the shortest economic slump in memory, there is increasing evidence that New Economy factors---- including high productivity rates, better inventory management, more flexible labor markets, and a greater share of jobs in the service sector ---- were in fact responsible for the brevity of the slowdown. As the remarkable US expansion of the 1990s appears to be continuing, the New Economy seems to have passed the first real test of its resiliency. And the structural changes being driven by the New Economy have not receded or been impeded by the changes of the last year; rather, they are as strong as ever. As these structural changes continue to sweep through our national economy, they are restructuring and reshaping the 50 state economies. In 1999, at the height of the New Economy euphoria, PPI released its first State New Economy Index, which included 17 indicators to measure the degree to which state economies were structured and operated according to the tenets of the New Economy. In 2002, after the New Economy has proved itself and is being viewed by most with a more careful and realistic eye, PPI’s 2002 State index uses 21 economic indicators to measure these differences and ass ess states’ progress as they adapt to the new economic order. With these indicators as a frame of reference, the report then outlines a state-level public policy framework aimed at boosting the incomes of all Americans. While in 1999 many thought that the New Economy changed everything (including the need for companies to make a profit), in 2001 many scoffed at it as simply a flash in the pan or, worse, a myth spun by an over-imaginative media. Many questioned if after the superb economic performance of the 1990s we were doomed to return to the dismal days of the later 1970s and 1980s. The reality is that the New Economy was neither an epochal and dizzying transformation nor a slogan generated by some dot-com companies looking to inflate their IPO prices. Rather it was and is the kind of profound transformation of all industries that happens perhaps twice ina century. Such a change is equivalent in scope and depth to the rise of the manufacturing economy in the 1890s and the emergence of the mass-production, corporate economy in the 1940s and 1950s. As we pass through one of those groundswells that regularly but infrequently reshape the economy (and society) from top to bottom, there will be occasional bumps along the way---- like the recent economic downturn---- but these are the negative phrases within what we can expect to be a much longer growth period.

For a company which wants to create brand awareness,I have some suggestions.Firstly it’s necessary to make a product recognise. Secondly,the company should associate with specific quality with his brand.Thirdly,forming a customer loyalty is important for a company. 3.What is important when arranging a business trip abroad ?Type of transport ?Accommodation ?Contact person I think when arranging a business trip abroad there are three things to consider.

But sometimes the situation is that kids do not necessarily very keen on this, some children may not have extraordinary talent. And also in the growth process, the psychological gap can not be avoided. 名人:弊端Celebrity endorsement ads make compelling product.Celebrity endorsement advertising can deepen people's perception of the brand.

S. begin to realise that investors demand financial reporting to be truly presented: creative accounting is no longer acceptable. In response to the criticism about how it booked the gain on the sale of one of its businesses. IBM announced on Feb. 19th that it would expand the informaton it provides investors on such things as its intellectual-property income and the impact on earnings of the company's overfunded pension plan. And a day later, General Electric Co. Chairman and Chief Executive Jeffrey R. Immelt also pay heed to investors' calls for better disclosure by promising to provide more detail on how the company's individual units —including its finance departrment. GE Capital —churn out their earnings. B Expect this lifting of the veil to spread rapidly throughout corporate America, In the wake of Enron's collapse and questionable accounting at telecommunications companies such as Global Crossing Ltd., investors are demanding better. more frequent, and more expansive information about companies' financial health. This rising pressure will force executives in boardrooms across the country to wrestle with exactly how much new information to reveal, much less the question of how to flag changes for investors without causing their stocks to tank. "GE and IBM are bellwethers," says Patrick S. McGurn, vice-president at proxy advisory service Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. "You will see a huge wave of imitation." C Of course, that's good for shareholders —and for the long-term health of the market, But the tsunami of new disclosures, unfortunately, isn't necessarily what the recovering economy needs right now. The trick will be to strike the right balance. Companies that reveal too little, too late will get punished in the market. But dumping too much on shareholders may only muddy the picture further. "If you give too much information, people can get overwhelmed by the minutia, and the important stuff gets buried." says Charles M. Elson, director of the Centre for Corporate Governance at the University of Delaware. D In fact, IBM and G E join a growing list of companies that have already been compelled to improve their disclosure, At Tyco International Ltd., which has been buffeted by concerns about its complex accounting and financial health, senior execs have begun holding weekly phone conferences with analysts and investors to address questions about its accounting and operations. Franchising giant Cendant Corp. has put detailed information on its Website about its off-balance-sheet entities, while hotel operator Marriott International Inc. recently provided details on write-offs it has taken for loan guarantees as well as some hotel-development projects.
