Passage 2

The flying fox is not a fox at all. It is an extra large bat that has got a fox’s head, and that feeds on fruit instead of insects. Like all bats, flying foxes hang themselves by their toes when at rest, and travel in great crowds when out flying. A group will live in one spot for years. Sometimes several hundreds of them occupy a single tree. As they return to the tree toward sunrise, they quarrel among themselves and fight for the best places until long after daylight.

Flying foxes have babies once a year, giving birth to only one at a time. At first the mother has to carry the baby on her breast wherever she goes. Later she leaves it hanging up, and brings back food for it to eat. Sometimes a baby bat falls down to the ground and squeaks (尖叫) for help. Then the older ones swoop (俯冲) down and try to pick it up. If they fail to do so, it will die. Often hundreds of dead baby bats can be found lying on the ground at the foot of a tree.

Passage 3

These days, retailers are faced with an embarrassment of informational riches. With the right tools, you can track shipments, monitor inventory, gauge customer satisfaction, and much more with the click of a mouse.

And that’s a problem. One of the biggest challenges facing e-business today is information overload. Often buried in the e-mail and faxes, spreadsheets and presentations, browsers and applications, Web sits and data warehouses, is information that holds the key to success. If only you could put your hands on it precisely when you needed it.

Managing information overload and streamlining business processes have become critical success factors that making Knowledge Management (KM) tools vital to e-business success. The following white paper shows how using KM tools to get the right information to the right people at the right time and in a personalized, usable format, can accelerate decision-making, speed business processes, and deliver a decisive e-business advantage.

A variety of stand-alone KM applications are emerging to provide such capabilities. They fall into several categories:

·Information retrieval —Advanced tools let knowledge workers find information quickly, regardless of its source or location.

·Personal content categorization —A single application can be customized to aggregate unstructured data from many sources into one view.

·Learning and adaptation —Behind-the-scenes software agents profile the way an employee works in order to anticipate what data he/she might need.

·Enterprise information portals —Corporate portals pull together up-to-date information and applications to enhance productivity and decision-making.

·Collaboration —Rapid-fire sharing of knowledge among dispersed knowledge workers saves time and money, and increase productivity.

·E-learning —Delivering the latest training to employees precisely when they need it can best be accomplished online.

Next-generation software promises to integrate multiple KM technologies, to forge even more comprehensive solutions. As KM solutions evolve, they will transform the PC from a personal productivity tool to a knowledge assimilation and Internet productivity platform.

37. The most important thing for success is often hidden in the _________.

A. overloaded information

B. challenges facing e-business

C. embarrassment retailers are faced with

D. customer satisfaction

Making the transition to e-business can be daunting.(71)There is so much to do, so many questions to answer, so many possibilities to explore. How do you know where to start?

(72) When you begin planning an e-business, the most important thing to remember is that you shouldn’t try to do everything at once. Biting off more than you and your team can effectively handle can be as big a problem as doing nothing. Focus your initial e-business efforts on those areas that can most immediately gain from the investment. (73) This lets you

pick a targeted starting point, with clear goals and boundaries, so you can build the foundation from which other e-business initiatives will flow.

Intel took this advice to heart when it began planning the Intel e-business Web site. Rather than attempting to remake the entire Intel business infrastructure —a truly daunting task for a global corporation with over 65,000 employees —the company focused on its direct customers, including OEMs and distributors. (74) The idea was to focus on customers who already had a relationship through Intel field sales and customer support, and find ways to improve that relationship through the Internet.

(75)“We picked one thing we could build very quickly and deploy to our customers.”says Sandra Morris, director of Intel’s Internet Marketing & e-Commerce.
