Woman: Sure, what's the name?Man: The surname's Jaye. First name Stephen.Woman: How does he spell his surname?Man: J-A-Y-E. Got that?Woman: Oh yes, here we are . . . lives at a hundred and eighty-three School Road,Barnfield . . .Man: Yes, that's the one.Woman: And you say he was working in Finance?Man: Uhm, Customer Services, actually.Woman: Aah - they had lots of students working for them last summer.Man: Well, the tax people want to know his exact job title - I'm not sure why. Woman: Mm, let me see . . . He was an office assistant.Man: Right, got that. They also want to know about his monthly earnings. Woman: Let's have a look . . . five hundred and thirty-eight pounds seventy a month . . . Oh, sorry, he was a scale one, so that's four hundred and fifty-seven pounds sixty. Anything else?Man: That's fine, thanks. I'll send them the information today . . . [pause]Now listen to the recording again.[pause]Conversation Two.Questions 5 to 8.Look at the note below.You will hear a man describing a problem with an order.You have 15 seconds to read through the note.[pause]Now listen, and fill in the spaces.Woman: Hello, Blackwell Printers. Julie Davidson speaking. How may I help you? Man: Hello. This is Mark Jones from Europe Holidays. I was hoping to speak to Steven Kirby about the stationery you're printing for us.Woman: I'm afraid Steven's away until Friday.Man: Oh - you see I'm not very happy with the business cards and I wanted to see if I could make a couple of changes to the paper too.Woman: Would you like me to pass on a message?Man: Yes, please. The thing is, I've just received your proofs - the cards themselves are fine, but you seem to have misunderstood the quantities. I'm sure I asked for five hundred for each of the marketing executives and seven hundred and fifty for me but you've put everyone down for seven hundred and fifty. Woman: Right, I've made a note of that. Is there anything else?Man: Yes, well this is my mistake really. Could you ask Steven to move the company logo further to the left? It's too close to the address at the moment. I think that's all for now. Thanks.[pause]Now listen to the recording again.[pause]Conversation Three. Questions 9 -12Look at the notes below.You will hear a woman making the arrangements for a delegation who are going to visit her company.You have 15 seconds to read through the notes.[pause]Now listen, and fill in the spaces.Woman: Geoff?Man: Yes?Woman: I just want to finalise the preparations for the delegation next week.

That'll be about ten.Man: Ten. And then . . .Woman: Into Reception, I think.

Bye.[pause]Now listen to the recording again.[pause]That is the end of Part One. You now have 20 seconds to check your answers. [pause]Part Two. Questions 13 to 22.Section One. Questions 13 to 17.You will hear five short recordings[pause]Now listen to the recording again.[pause]That is the end of Part One. You now seconds to check your answers.[pause]Part Two. Questions 13 to 22. Section One.Questions 13 to 17.You will hear five short recordings.For each recording, decide which type of document the speaker is talking about.Write one letter (A-H) next to the number of the recording.Do not use any letter more than once.After you have listened once, replay the recordings.You have 15 seconds to read the list A-H.[pause]Now listen, and decide which type of document each speaker is talking about. [pause] ThirteenWoman: Well no wonder the bank's returned it unpaid. Look, the figures don't match the amount in words. I expect someone was filling it in in too much of a hurry. Let's see, we'd better issue another one straight away to pay Mrs Burton, because it'll be another three weeks if we wait for the next cycle of payments. Her expenses on that sales trip were pretty high, and it wouldn't be fair to keep her waiting much longer.[pause] fourteenMan: Some of the suppliers are already asking about the increases. I'll check, but I seem to remember from last week's meeting that in the end we agreed on three per cent. So what I'll do is go down each column and calculate the new amounts, and then it can be printed in time to be inserted into the new brochures. Can you check the figures for me, though, before it goes to the printers? [pause] fifteenWoman: We've just received the paperwork from you about cleaning our premises, and I have to say that it doesn't reflect what we agreed in our conversation last week. For one thing, it says that we have to supply our security code, and for another it specifies monthly payment in advance, and I told you both of those were out of the question. I'm afraid I really can't sign this. Could you send me a revised one?[pause] SixteenMan: Of course, this only gives a very general picture. But as you can see, cash is a particularly healthy area. That's even when we take into account regular outgoings on loans and leasing equipment, which are included in the final totals. And even more significantly, unpaid orders are actually excluded from the final calculation. These represent a sum of approximately thirty thousand pounds. With that in mind, we can say that the company's overall position is still strong. [pause] SeventeenWoman: I've just asked the Arden Conference Centre about availability for our next training seminar, and they said they still haven't been paid for the one before last, which should have been dealt with six months ago. I've had to ask them to send a duplicate! We really must be careful. Arden give us very favourable prices,but we haven't got a contract with them - Can you deal with it straight away so we stay in their good books?[pause].Vow listen to the recordings again.[pause]Section Two. Questions 18 to 22.You will hear another five recordings.For each recording, decide what the speaker's purpose is.Write one letter (A-H) next to the number of the recording.Do not use any letter more than once.After you have listened once, replay the recordings.You have 15 seconds to read the list A-H.[pause]Now listen, and decide what each speaker's purpose is.[pause] EighteenMan: Hello. This is Guy Cooper from Centron Electronics here. I believe you rang for some advice about your alarm system, which isn't functioning properly. The message I got said you weren't sure if you needed someone to come and sort it out, or if we could advise you over the phone. Well perhaps you'd like to get back to me as soon as it's convenient and tell me exactly what the problem is, and I'll see what I can do.[pause] NineteenWoman: Well, as you say, Redlon has been supplying us for years but, quite honestly, two-thirds of the complaints we receive about our products are actually due to faults in components we've had from Redlon. So I talked to the Production Manager and he agreed that I should look at some alternatives.Future World's range is fine for us, and one of their customers who I spoke to recommended them highly, so that's why we've changed to using them. [pause] TwentyWoman: The competition's getting tougher, and you know we're facing serious problems.We need to see more benefit from the undeniably hard work we're putting in, and this means saying no to jobs which aren't profitable. It would be much more beneficial to put all our efforts into winning higher-margin contracts. So the way I feel you can help most is by identifying the types of contacts which will bring in the income we need in order to ensure our future.[pause] Twenty-oneMan: John Woods here, phoning about the project we discussed earlier. Could you give me a ring so that we can talk about it a bit more? I've done a few calculations and I'm beginning to wonder whether it's really a practical proposition. 1 still think the project's got potential, but there are significant additional costs which we hadn't taken into account. So could you get back to me as soon as you can, please?[pause] Twenty-twoWoman: Hello, Sally here, from Pagwell Paints, returning your call. I'm very sorry you aren't happy with the latest consignment you've had from us. It's rather strange, because following your complaint about the last delivery,we did in fact take action to change the specifications in the way you suggested. So it isn't quite fair to say that we ignored your advice. I know it's important to achieve the consistency that you require, but perhaps your recommendation wasn't exactly what's needed.[pause]Now listen to the recordings again.[pause]This is the end of Part Two.[pause]Part Three. Questions 23 to 30.You will hear the chairman of a business institute making a speech about new business awards that his institute has sponsored.For each question 23-30. mark one letter (A, B or C) for the correct answer. After you have listened once, replay the recording.You have 45 seconds to read through the questions.[pause]Now listen, and mark A, 6 or C.[pause]Man: Who are the managers of the best innovation developments in British industry? That was the question which the first Business Today Innovation Awards set out to answer.This project is all about rewarding good practice and performance. So, rather than simply recognising excellence in the design of specific products, or analysing their financial impact on profits, the awards set out to take an objective look at exactly how companies manage the development process itself.Over three hundred and fifty organisations entered the competition and were initially reduced to about forty. Then, after further careful checking, a short list of just fourteen of them was arrived at. These finalists, all manufacturers, were then visited by the competition judges, a panel of four chief executives from leading companies. The panel toured the finalists' facilities, received presentations on the companies and their projects, and interviewed the key development team members. The products varied enormously in their scale, function and degree of technology - from bread for a supermarket chain to a printer inside an automatic cash dispenserInitially the organisers were concerned that this range could create difficulties in the assessment process. But this fear proved baseless, as most elements in the innovation process are shared by all manufacturers.Interestingly, the finalists broke down into two distinct and equal groups: large firms with one thousand employees or more and small firms with two hundred and fifty employees or fewer. With both groups the judges decided to concentrate on two of the clearest indicators of a successful innovation process, which are: how well the new product is combined with the company's existing business, and secondly, how-well the innovation methods are recorded and understood. Small firms naturally tend todo well in the first category since they have fewer layers of management and thus much shorter communication lines. But they seem to put less emphasis on creating formal development methods which would be repeatable in future innovations. Large firms, on the other hand, have difficulty integrating the new development within their existing business for reasons of scale. But they tend to succeed in achieving well-documented and repeatable development methods. This is because larger companies, with their clear emphasis on training, fixed management structure and administrative systems, require more formal, daily record-keeping from their staff.So what were the key questions the judges had in mind when assessing the finalists? One of the most important areas concerned how thoroughly a company checks what is happening in other fields in order to incorporate new ideas into the development process. Many of the finalists impressed in the area. Xatura, for example, had demonstrated genuine energy in searching for new ways of producing their range of specialitv breads. They had looked at styles of home cooking in different countries, as well as the possibility of exploiting new production technologies in order to achieve equally good results but on a high-volume production line.What then occupied much of the judges' thoughts was the quality of the links which the development team established with senior management, suppliers, the market and manufacturing. The best examples of the first category were found in small firms, where the individual entrepreneur at the top was clearly driving the innovation forwardLinks with suppliers were also seen as an important factor, but not all supplier experiences were positive. Occasionally serious problems had to be solved where suppliers were working hard to meet specifications, but the companies that the suppliers were using to adapt their machinery were not so efficient. This, led to disappointing faults or fluctuations in quality.But in conclusion the awards demonstrate that innovation isn't just for high-tech internet companies. You can also be successful in mature markets with determination and skill.[pause]Now listen to the recording again.[pause]That is the end of Part Three. You now have ten minutes to transfer your answers to your Answer Sheet.Note: Teacher, stop the recording here and time ten minutes. Remind students when there is one minute remaining.[pause]That is the end of the test.Test 2ReadingPart 1I.

We will need them especially during next year trade fair and conferences. There are two firms to assess.Findings:As regards to Telecars we have a good references on them. It is very experienced traditional firm and is also very reliable. They provide 24-hours service that is useful during night meetings and negotiations. StreetlightCabs is brand new company and there are no references on them. But they provide long distance routes which we usevery often and they are also cheaper. On the other hand they don't have web page and so internet booking isn't available.Conclusion:I recommend to choose Telecars because of their reliability, long tradition and well trained staff.ListeningPart 11TAKING MINUTES213(TH) OCTOBER3CERTIFICATE4CUSTOMER SERVICE5WORLDNET/WORLD NET6OUTSIDE LINES7TRANSFER CALLS8(THE) EQUIPMENT9.TRADE FAIR10AFTER LUNCH11REVISED BUDGETS12HEAD OFFICEPart 213 H 14 E 15 F 16 A 17 D 18 G19 E 20 C 21 B 22 HPart323 C 24 A 25 A 26 C 27 A 28 C 29 B 30 BTapescriptListening Test 2This is the Business English Certificate Vantage 2, Listening Test 2.Part One.

What seems to be the problem?Woman: First of all, your engineer said that with the number of extensions we've got, six outside lines would be enough, but we asked for eight, and anyway you've charged us for the larger system.Man: Right, we'll look into that.Woman: Then, whenever we try to transfer calls from one extension to another we lose them. We're following the instructions, but it just doesn't work.Man: I see.Woman: And finally, could you ask Tony to check the invoice, please? He promised us a discount on installation, which is shown, and one on the equipment, but that isn't there.Man: Right. I'm sorry about all that. I'll get Tony to contact you as soon as he's free.Woman: Thank you. Goodbye. Man: Goodbye.[pause]Now listen to the recording again.[pause]Conversation Three. Questions 9 to 12.Look at the note below.You will hear a woman calling about the arrangements for a meeting.You have 15 seconds to read through the note.[pause]Now listen, and fill in the spaces.Man: Good morning. Marketing Department. Peter Menzies speaking.Woman: Hello. Could I speak to John Fitzgerald, please?Man: I'm afraid he's not in the office at the moment.Woman: Well, this is Elizabeth Parnell calling. I wanted to talk to John about the meeting next week. You see, I only get back on Tuesday night from a trade fair in the States.Man: So, would you like me to give him a message?Woman: Yes, could you ask him if we can postpone Wednesday's meeting? Till after lunch. That would be easier. It was originally going to be at ten a.m. Man: OK. I'll ask him to change it. I'll get back to you with a time.Woman: Thanks. And could you also ask him to add another item for discussion at the meeting? I thought we were going to talk about the revised budgets - but I can't see this on the agenda.Man: OK. I'd better ask him to call you . . .Woman: Yes, please. I'm at Head Office at the moment. Can he phone me here today - I won't be back at my own desk until tomorrow afternoon.Man: Right, I'll give him the message.Woman: Thanks.Man: Bye.Woman: Goodbye.[pause]Now listen to the recording again.[pause]That is the end of Part One. You now have 20 seconds to check your answers. [pause]Part Two. Questions 13 to 22.Section One. Questions 13 to 17.You will hear five short recordings. Five people are talking about different business books they have read.for each recording, decide which book the speaker is talking about.Write one letter (A-Hi next to the number of the recording.Do not use any letter more than once.After you have listened once, replay the recordings.You have 15 seconds to read the list A-H.[pause]Note listen, and decide winch book each speaker is talking about.[pause] ThirteenWoman: Yes, it was interesting . . . some of it was rather obvious, of course, like dressing smartly, making sure you arrive on time, that sort of thing . . . but there was also quite a lot I'd never really considered . . . like ways to interpret what the advertisement is really asking for, reading between the lines . . . and a section which lists some of the harder questions they tend to ask you, with effective answers you can give[pause] FourteenMan: Invaluable, I'd say . . . certainly helps prevent you making some of the more embarrassing mistakes. It gives you a kind of timescale to follow through. For example, they stress that you need to get publicity up and running a good six months before you want to stage the event. And get your main speakers booked earlier than that. They say you must make sure you've got a good assistant to support you, check the details.[pause] FifteenWoman: Actually, although it was a bit long, it was definitely useful. The trouble often is, when the management take on new staff, they don't necessarily really know what skills or qualities are needed. I want someone who's more than justa secretary typing out letters every day . . . I'm looking for a right hand,someone to do everything . . . and this book spells out what that means . . .it's helped me to draw up a job description.[pause] SixteenMan: Well, I wish I'd read it years ago! That would have saved me from some of my worst inefficiencies. I'd recommend it to anyone. It shows you how to producea perfect schedule for getting through your workload . . . Once you've gotyourself organised, made lists of tasks and priorities, you can make best use of each and every day . . . otherwise you're just constantly confusing your PA with endless requests, all terribly urgent . . .[pause] SeventeenWoman: Certainly, a lot of the book was very specialised . . . but it did give me an idea of how7 the agencies do the job. Of course, they're the people with the creative ideas, the expertise, so I'm happy to trust the image development work to them . . . but I read the book so I could talk to them on equal terms about what we're trying to do, and how it fits in with our overall business strategy.[pause]Now listen to the recordings again.[pause]Section Two. Questions 18 to 22.You will hear another five recordings, five people are talking about why they decided to use a particular company to supply their officeequipment.for each recording, decide what reason each person gives.Write one letter (A-H) next to the number of the recording.Do not use any letter more than once.After you have listened once, replay the recordings.You have 15 seconds to read the list A-H.[pause].Vow listen, arid decide what reason each person gives.[pause] EighteenMan: We were having problems with the company we normally use so we looked at a number of other companies and decided to give this one a try. They're just new in the business and we were impressed as they promised they would deliver the goods we wanted within two days and they did. We had to pay more than we would have liked but the results were worth it. Since then, I've told a lot of other people about them.[pause] NineteenWoman: Apparently they're an established company in Scotland with an excellent reputation, but I didn't know that at the time. I found them through the internet.I was just browsing through the list of suppliers one day and I noticed their name. I looked them up and found that they had this fantastic discount available that particular month. We ordered various things and the quality was so good we've continued using them.[pause] TwentyMan: We like to try out different suppliers to make sure we're always getting the best deal. This particular company was running a big publicity campaign. I'd seen the ads on TV and they really put me off. I just couldn't see theappeal. But then someone I met at a training day told me we should use them.His company had used their service for years with no complaints so we followed his advice.[pause] Twenty-oneWoman: We'd looked round the market to find the cheapest deal possible but to be honest there wasn't much to choose, in terms of cost, between any of the local suppliers. However, we had a visit from a sales representative from one company and we asked him to make up some complimentary printed letterheads for us. They were exactly what we wanted so that was the deciding factor. I think that personal touch gives a company far better results than advertising ever can. [pause] Twenty-twoMan: Obviously there are many different factors to consider when you choose a new supplier. We always used a local company because they were relatively near and we could even pick things up ourselves if necessary. But unfortunately they just became too expensive. Now that express delivery services are widely available, distance is no longer a consideration and we've been able to choose someone who can give us the best package for the lowest cost.[pause]Now listen to the recordings again.[pause]That is the end of Part Two.[pause]Part Three. Questions 23 to 30.。

BEC中级英语真题考试真题及解析

BEC中级英语真题考试真题及解析1.SHEER GENIUS - OR A WASTE OF TIME?Encourage your original thinkers and live with their strange habits, says Alan WorthinIf one of your research staff announced that he had worked out a way to propel a vehicle on a cushion of air, would you tell him to concentrate on something practical, or suggest taking it further? If a member of your development team asked if she could come in late because she had her best ideas at 3 am would you insist that she is in the office at 9 am like everyone else?Current business wisdom is that companies need creative, innovative people to beat competitors. The reality is that companies have always needed new ideas to survive and progress, but in the past they weren't particularly good at encouraging the people who produced them.Original thinkers don't always fit easily into the framework of an organisation. However, the advice from managing director, John Serrano is, 'Get rid of the dull people and encourage the unusual ones'. Essentially, he believes that companies need to learn how to manage their original thinkers in order to ensure that the business profits from their contribution. He also says, 'Original thinkers often find it difficult to drive change within the organisation, so they resign, feeling angry and disappointed. It is essential to avoid this.''You can't recognise original thinkers by the way they look,' says Ian Freeman. An apparently ordinary exterior can conceal a very creative thinker.' His consultancy, IBT Personnel, has devised a structured way to identify original thinkers. 'We define employees as champions, free-wheelers, bystanders and weak links, and most original thinkers come into the category of free-wheelers. They may miss deadlines if they become involved in something more interesting. They are passionate and highly motivated but have li ttle or no understanding of business directions and systems.' Headhunter George Solomon also thinks original thinkers have their disadvantages. 'They may have a bad influence within an organisation, especially given the current management trend for working in teams. The original thinkers themselves may be unaware of any problem, but having them around can be disruptive to colleagues. who have to be allowed to point out when they are being driven crazy by the original thinkers' behaviour.' Yet, in his opinion, the 'dream team' in any creative organisation consists of a balanced mixture of original thinkers and more practical, realistic people.So, having identified your original thinkers, how do you handle them? One well-known computer games company has a very inventive approach. 'We encourage our games designers by creating an informal working environment,' says director Lorna Marsh. 'A company cannot punish risk-takers if it wants to encourage creativity. Management has to provide support, coaching and advice - and take the risk that new ideas may not work. Our people have flexible working hours and often make no clear distinction between their jobs and their home lives.'Original thinkers may fit into the culture of 21st century organisations, but more traditional organisations may have to change their approach. Business psychologist Jean Row believes that the first step is to check that original thinkers are worth the effort. 'Are the benefits they bring worth the confusion they cause? If so, give them what they want, allow plenty of space, but set clear limits. Give them extremely demanding targets. If they fail to meet them, then the game is up. But if they succeed, your organisation stands only to gain.'2.问题13 It is important for a company to encourage original thinkers becauseA this allows it to promote innovative products.B this enables it to stay ahead of its rivals.C they are very flexible about their working hours.D their talents are ideally suited to the market.14 John Serrano thinks that original thinkers should beA helped to develop better people management skills.B asked to manage change within the organisation.C supported so they can perform well for the company.D encouraged to follow company procedures.15 What does Ian Freeman say about original thinkers?A They are unenthusiastic and poorly motivated.B Their work standards are impossibly high.C Their abilities are hard to recognise.D They lack awareness of commercial processes.16 What problems can be observed when there are original thinkers in the workforce?A They may have a negative effect on other workers.B They dislike the concept of teamwork.C They rush tasks through to completion.D They cannot work with less creative colleagues.17 In what way is the games company's approach to original thinkers special?A It allows them to work from home whenever they wish.B It uses different forms of disciplinary action for them.C It promotes a relaxed atmosphere in the workplace.D It encourages them to reduce the risks that they take.18 A traditional organisation wishing to employ original thinkers needs toA provide them with projects they are interested in.B assess whether their contribution makes up for any problems.C have a flexible approach if goals are not always achieved.D be prepared to handle any negative feedback from colleagues.3.答案及解析《Sheer genius—or a waste of time》，纯粹是天才，还是浪费时间?文章讲的是公司里的那些有创意的人(original thinkers)，他们对于公司的存在到底有什么价值，公司又该怎么利用他们?13题，问对于公司来讲鼓励有创意的人很重要的原因是什么。

You have 1 minute to prepare your ideas.2．In this part of the test you are asked to give a short talk on a business topic. You have to choose one of the topics from the three below and then talk for about One minute. You have one minute to prepare your ideas.A. WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN...? SELECTING APPLICANTS FOR A JOB —WORK EXPERIENCE —PERSONAL QUALITIESB. WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN...? CHOOSING A SUPPLIER —PRICE AND DISCOUNTS —REPUTATIONC. WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN...? AIMING TO IMPROVE PRODUCTION QUALITY —UP-TO-DATE EQUIPMENT —STAFF TRAINING 正确答案：Interlocutor:—I’m going to give each of you a choice of 3 topics. I’d like you to choose one of the topics and give a short presentation on it for about a minute. You will have about a minute to prepare for this and you can make notes if you wish while you prepare. After you have finished your talk, your partner will ask you a question.—All right? Here are your topics.[Interlocutor hands each candidate a different topic card, and some paper and a pencil for notes]Interlocutor:—Choose one of the topics to talk about. You can make notes.[1 minute’s preparation time. Both candidates pre pare their talks at the same time, separately.]Interlocutor:—All right now. Candidate Two, which topic have you chosen, A, B or C? Would you like to talkabout what you think is important when aiming to improve production quality?[Candidate Two talks]Well. There are many aspects to take consideration into. First, up-to-date equipment is a must. second, I guess staff training is sencond to none when a firm wants to produce first-rate products. Because advance equipment is useless unless it is operated by staff who have been trained to how to use it. Third, we must put money into research and make good use research results to improve production quality. Only by doing so, can we greatly improve production quality.Interlocutor:—Thank you. Now, Candidate One, please ask Candidate Two your question about his/her talk.[Candidate One asks question.]Do you really think staff training is the most important?Candidate Two: Yes. As I have mentioned before, compared with up-to-date equipment, staff training is the most important factor.Interlocutor:—Thank you. All right. Now, Candidate One, which topic have you chosen, A, B or C? Would you like to talk about what you think is important when selecting applicants for a job?[Candidate One talks]To select applicants for a job involves many aspects. Each of them requires full consideration. Firstly, work experience should be considered. Usually, an applicant with longer experience is more suitable for the opening. But, an experienced applicant also has his or her disadvantage: he or she has less potential com pared with a young and energetic one who has much more potential. Secondly, personal qualities should never be ignored. A company in which staff are hard working, loyal, and collaborative tends to succeed. We should be more careful when we choose a leader. A good leader can lead a prosperous one to be more promising. A bad leader results in a disaster.Interlocutor;—Thank you. Thank you. Now, Candidate Two, please ask Candidate One your question about his/her talk.[Candidate Two asks question.]Do you think work experience is just as important as personal qualities when selecting applicants for a job?Candidate One: I think they are of the same important. It’s wrong to just pay attention to one of them.Interlocutor:—Thank you[Materials are collected.]SECTION 3 DISCUSSION (ABOUT 5 MIN)In this part of the test you are given a discussion topic.

5月28日BEC中级考试真题答案

5月28日BEC中级考试真题答案阅读部分引自爱英语同学回忆1考完试看到大家都在努力找答案，我也好好想了一下，就想起这么多了，难度不亚于这次考试啊，有些地方组织不清，请原谅下哈。

阅读第一部分我就记得几个了。

一起回忆哈1，higher rate 会带来好处和坏处。

俺选的是D,文章中一句前面说了好处，后面有专家认为会slow the economic。

2，export can be helped by the level of exchang of rate，我选的是A，相当不确定啊，文章最后一句export should be helped by the weakness of the currency。

3，customer spending啥的会促进经济的发展，我选的也是A，文章有一句是customer spending，should help the economic,rising a litter at last(句子好像不对哦，一起想哦)4,外国有些国家赚了更多还是什么的，我选的是D，文章中说虽然performance 不错，但是还是比不上国际上的peers。

阅读第二部分D B F A CD项是if these cannot be managed 什么的，带来financial problems ，我依据的是文章里后面一句是at the least,can damage the reputation。

B项是some of these can take place at any time 什么的，make all of them can go into the co-operate program，记不清了，文章说的是有a rang of 什么process的。

A项是it is therefore important to set goals and review regulary on the process,大家将就看下啊，组织不清啊，那段文章说的failure is hard to be accepted ,然后要求上司能在出现问题的时候尽快下决定，后面是说了一些问题表明项目出现问题了，好像是cannot meet the deadline.F项说的是In fact,manage the individual is the most difficult critical skill 啥的，文章前面有举例说person skills，比如说meet the individual’s expection C项是this transfer 的重要性是the acceptance of the ownership of the company,文章说的是将接近尾声的项目转交给上级啥的。
