2013年12月14日雅思考试真题回忆北外雅思整理了2013年12月14日雅思考试真题回忆，以供参考！听力Section1：V101009S1内容：一男生向一女生咨询去Amazon旅游的问题，女生的爸妈住在那里题型：填空题Section2：新题内容：矿区旅游题型：选择题＋地图Section3：新题内容：与音乐相关的groupessaydiscussion题型：选择题＋配对题Section4：V08130S4＝V110310S4内容：澳洲公路发展史题型：填空题阅读Passage1MagnetTherapy(2012年8月11日旧题)题型：Heading（6题）+Choice多选（1题2选）+SentenceCompletion配对（3题）文章大概内容：论述了磁疗的好处和它在古代的应用。

但没有充分的科学依据证明其有效性。

在一个university进行了一个有关磁疗减轻疼痛的实验。

最后作者说在未来希望有科学研究能证明。

Passage2明星员工题型：段落细节配对（5题）+summary（4题）+是非无判断（4题）文章大概内容：首先讲了公司在资金和技术都充足的条件下，不同之处在于公司员工。

Ergo 这家公司挖掘优秀的人才，甚至对优秀的人才非常“纵容”，而残忍地淘汰二流货色员工。

这种精英员工的倾向性已经被有雄心的公司所采用。

接下来又举了个Enron公司的例子来说明光靠雇佣精英员工是无法赢得talentwars的。

HarvardBusinessReview的一份数据表明当一个公司雇佣明星员工后，三件事情会发生：第一：明星员工从一个机构到另一个机构工作并不容易。

他们的表现很容易一落千丈，原因被大多是归咎给新环境，制度，程序，领导关系，但也可能是因为这些明星员工之前的表现让他们在新工作地点不愿意吸收新的东西或敌对教导他的人。

第二：团队表现会受竞争者们之间的怨恨和紧张关系所影响。

第三：投资者卖掉offender的股票。
