Directions: Read the following three passages and conψlete the questions ifter them by choosing the best from thefour alternαlives. Writeyour αnswer on the Answer Sheet.

Passage 1

Few companies are as creative as Google, which serves up innovations almost as fast 出 its popular search­ engine serves up results. This week the firm unveiled a new version of its Chrome web browser and launched Fast Flip, which lets users scroll through the contents of an on-line newspaper in much the same way that they leaf through its pages in print. On September 301h the company will roll out another new product, Google Wave, for a test involving some 100,000 people. Billed 出 a revolutionary way to collaborative online, Wave is also the product of a new, more structured approach to innovation within the company.

For years Google has had a fairly informal product-development system. Ideas penetrated upwards from Googlers without any formal process for senior managers to review them. Teams working on innovative stuff were generally kept small. Such a system worked fairly well while Google was in its infancy. But now that it is a giant with 20,000 employees, the firm risks stifling potential money叩inners with an increasing bureaucracy.

To stop that  happening,  Google  has  begun  to hold  regular  meetings  at which  employees  are encouraged  to present new ideas to Eric Schmidt, the firm’s chief executive, and Larry Page and Sergey Brin, its co-founders.  It has also given some projects  more resources and independence than in the past. Both moves  are designed to ward off the  conservatism  that  can  set  in  as companies  mature.  “We  are  actively  trying  to  prevent  middle-agedom，” explains Mr. Schmidt.

Google Wave has benefited  from this anti-aging treatment. The new  software allows people to create shared content that is hosted  on Google’s se阿ers online, or “in the cloud”. When they open Google Wave, users see three columns on their screens. The left-handed  one contains users folders and address books,  while the middle column

is a list of “waves"  -online conversations  users  have  initiated  or signed up to. Clicking  on a wave  displays  its

contents in the right-hand column. People can post text, photos, web feeds and other things into a wave and exchange comments with one another instantly.

The   software   excites  tech   folk,   some   of   whom   reckon   it  poses   a  threat   to  沁1icrosoft ’s   SharePoint

collaboration  package. Inside Google the project  has generated  much enthusiasm too, plus some controversy. The Wave  team  deliberately  distanced  itself  from  Google’s  headquarters,  choosing  to  be  based  in  the  company ’s

答案写在答题纸上 ，写在试卷上无效 第 4 页  共 8 页

Sydney office. And it insisted that its work be kept secret for a long time so its initial  idea was not subject to picky criticism.  Some Googlers  felt this  was  a betrayal  of the  firm’s open  culture. “Not  everyone  inside  the  company thought that this was upper cool，” admits Lars R出mussen,  one of the two brothers  leading the project,  which  was allowed to recruit dozens of software engineers to his ranks.

That has not  affected  Google’s enthusiasm  for creating  more such teams. Mr.  Schmidt  wants  the number  to grow  from  a  dozen  or  so  to  perhaps  50.  The  challenge,  he  says,  is  to  find  leaders  with  the  quality  of  Mr. Rasmussen,  who previously worked  on an initiative that evolved  into the successful Google Maps.

Some Google-watchers  see a much  bigger  challenge. "Uoogle has  been  master fi.11 at coming up with a lot of ideas, but none of them  has matured to become  something that moves the revenue  needle，” says Gene Munster  of Piper  Ja佳町，an  investment  bank.  In  fairness  to  the  company,  that  is  partly   because  many  of  its  popular

innovations, such as Gmail, have been  given  away to boost  search-related  advertising, which  accounts for almost all of Google’s revenues.  But search has  been  suffering in the recession:  in the second  quarter  of 2009 Google’s revenues  were  $5.5 billion,  barely  3% higher  than  the same period  in  2008. It’s time that  the company  needs  to

find new ideas that can make a splash.

51. Which of the following statements is true about Google’s products mentioned  in this passage?

A. Chrome web browser imitates the way people leaf through real newspaper.

B. Google Wave offers a platfo口口to exchange information among users.

C. The originality of Google Maps comes from Mr. Schmidt.

D. Gmail, which boost search-related advertising, is popular and profitable.

52. Who of the following would probably hold a negative attitude towards Google Wave?

A. Larry Page. B. Tech fold. C. Some Googlers. D. Lars Rasmussen.

53. According to the passage, which of the following is the challenge that Google is confronted with?

A. Its product-development system is not very formal.

B. Few Googlers are devoted to making innovations.

C. Every new idea will meet criticism inside and outside the company.

D. Few ideas can make profits for the company in the recession.

54. This passage mainly talks about Google’s一一一一·

B. product-development system

D. search-related advertising

55. Which category of writing does this passage belong to?

A. Description.

C. Exposition.

B. Narration.

C. Argumentation.

Passage 2

Itzik Galili  really  is an artist of the floating world. Born in Israel in  1961, he moved to Amsterdam  when he was 30 and is shaping up as one of Europe’s most  idiosyncratic  choreographers.  Mr. Galili holds  dual Israeli  and Dutch citizenship. He has three children in Israel  and visits them every ten days. In addition to his native Hebrew, he also speaks good English and Dutch.

Mr. Galili  is highly  regarded  in Netherlands.  Marking the tenth  anniversary  of the founding of his company, Galili  Dance,  a  new  show，“Heads  or  Tales”，has  been  receiving  enthusiastic  review  as  it  tours  the  country. Fiercely  contemporary，“Heads  or  Tales"  is  full  of  gorgeous  imagery,  compelling  ensemble  work  and  aηesting soles. One thing it is not, though,  is balletic.  Scenes include a naked  man being showered  with  bits of paper, men

doing the pogo, and a man and woman engaged in tentative ballet while conducting a dialogue about genocide.

答案写在答题纸上 ，写在试卷上无效 第 5 页 共 8 页

Mr.  Galili’s artistic  style  is  confrontational:  athletic,  unsentimental  and  often  witty.  He  claims  not  to  be specifically political,  believing that politics  and choreography  rarely sit well together. But in “ For Heaven’s Sake”， a powerful  piece  that he first staged  in  2001  and which  he revised  last ye矶 the  image of occupation-conjuring

up the Isrealis in Palestine, perhaps, or the Americans in Iraq-could not be mistaken for anything  else.

Ten years ago, Mr. Galili moved from Amsterdam to the northern town of Groningen. A friend had  called, urging him to apply for a position there as director of dance. Mr. Gaiili got the job . Groningen is a pleasant place, with an old university, but its claims to fame do not extend too much beyond the industrial processing of sugar­

beet  and  a  giorious  i 沪，century  tower.  "Who  would  want  to  go  to  Groningen?;;  asks  Mr. Gaiiii  with  an  ironic

smile.

Yet in many respects it was a shrewd move. For such a small country, the Netherlands has an usually  quantity of world-class dance troupes, including the Dutch National Ballet, based in Amsterdam, and the  more experimental Netherlands Dance Theatre (NDT) in The Hague. Both fill theatres across the globe.

In  Groningen,  though,  Mr. Galili  is dance’s top  dog. That  allows  him  to  work  with  a 台eedom  and  intensity

that he might  not be permitted  were  he competing with  a bigger  troupe  in  a major  urban  center.  One  measure  of Galili Dance’s status is the number  of young hopefuls who want to join . The full tally of its performing  employees amounts to only ten people. Yet once, at most, twice  a year, Mr. Galili  sees between  350 and  500 applicants  over three days each time.

Small, for Mr. Galili, is clearly beautiful. His thinking about dance is coηespondingly original. Talent,  even if discernible from an early stage, develops only slowly. Almost everything begins in improvisation, and his aim is

never merely to make an audience laugh or cry. There must always be a journey  “within”，he says.

Mr. Galili knew nothing about dance until he was in his early 20s. He had had a disrupted childhood,  with his parents  divorcing  and  his  mother  suffering  a  breakdown.  He  and  two  other  siblings  were  fostered  by  three different  families,  and Mr. Galili  recalls with  evident  pain that he grew up  in  17 different  places between  the ages of  five  and   18.  After  doing  his  military  service  in  Israel  in  the  early  1980s,  he  caught  the  dance  bug  when watching five men dancing to a Greek fold tune; he had always loved Greek music.

56. “Choreographers" in the first paragraph  can be best replaced  by一一一一一－

A. language teachers B. movie directors

C. photographers D. directors of dance

57. Galili's dances can be described as all of the following EXCEPT 一一 ·

A. creative B. energetic C. emotion·al D. humorous

58. Which of the following can NOT be used to describe Galili according to the passage?

A. An artist who is interested in pol itics.

B. A veη popular artist in the Netherlands.

C. An artist with dual citizenship and linguistic talent.

D. An artist whose thinking about dance is original.

59. Galili ’s understanding  of dance shows that a good dance一一一一一一－

A. always tours around the country

B. makes audience c叩

C. makes audience laugh

D. touches audience’s hearts

A. was not a fast learner in dance

B. benefited from his childhood experiences

C. 

could not remember his childhood days

D. might not have a happy childhood

Passage 3

You can negotiate virtually anything. Projects resources, expectations and deadlines are all outcomes of negotiation. Some people negotiate deals for a living. Dr. Herb Cohen is one of these professional talkers,  called in by companies to negotiate on their behalf. He approaches the art of negotiation as a game because, as he is usually negotiating for somebody else, he says this helps him drain the emotional content from his conversation. He is working in a competitive field and needs to avoid being to adversarial. Whether he succeeds or not, it is important to him to make a good impression so that people will recommend him.

The starting poi nt for any deal, he believes, is to identify exactly what you want from each other. More often than not, one party will be trying to persuade the other round to their point of view. Negotiation requires two people at the end saying yes. This can be a problem because one of them usually begins by saying no. However, although this can make talks more difficult, this is often just a starting point in the negotiation game. Top management may well reject the idea initially because it is the safer option but they would not be there if they were not interested.

It is a misconception that skilled negotiators are smooth operators in smart suits. Dr. Cohen says that one of his strategies is to dress down so that the other side can relate to you. Pitch your look to suit your customer. You do not need to make them feel better than you but, for ex创丑ple, dressing in a style that is not overtly expensive or successful will make you more approachable. People will generally feel more comfortable with somebody who appears to be like them rather than superior to them. They may not like you but they will feel they can trust you.

Dr. Cohen suggests that the best way to sell your proposal is by ge忧ing into the world of the other side. Ask questions rather than give answers and take an interest in what the other person is saying, even if you think what they are saying is silly. You do not need to become their best friend but being too clever will alienate them. A lot of deals are made on impressions. Do not rush what you are saying, put a few hesitations in, do not try to bl ind them with your verbal dexterity. Also, you should repeat back to them what they have said to show you take them seriously.

Inevitably, some deals will not succeed. Generally the longer the negotiations go on, the better chance they have because people do not want to think their investment and ene电ies have gone to waste. However, joi nt venture can mean joint risk and sometimes, if this becomes too great, neither part may be prepared to see the deal through. More common is a co叩orate culture clash between companies, which can put paid to any deal. Even having agreed a deal, things may not be tied up quickly because when the lawyers get involved, everything gets

slowed down as they argue about small details.

Dr. Cohen thinks that children are the masters of negotiation. Their goals are totally selfish. They understand the decision-making process within families perfectly. If Mum refuses their request, they will troop along to ad and pressurize him. If all else fails, they will try the grandparents, using some emotional blackmail. They can also be very single-minded and have an inexhaustible supply of energy for the cause they are pursuing. So there are lessons to be ieamed from watching and listening to chi1dren.
