"The staff is not working as efficiently as they are expected to be. They need more specific management regulations, and in more details as well. The management is not timely supervising and improving the service that its staff provides to the visitors. What's more, the staff is granted a three-hour coffee break, while keeping crowds of tourists waiting for too long. These are ruining the Louvre experience for millions of domestic and foreign visitors!" says an annual report by the French government. The famous museum, home of the Mona Lisa, does not know how many paintings it has, how many staff it employs, or how much time its staff spend on the job, the report says. The report blames the mess on the fact that two-thirds of the 1,800 staff are civil servants. One of the cases in point is that the 6,000,000 people who visited the museum in 2000, most of them foreign tourists, had first to overcome "very worrying efficiency" at the ticket and information counters, which has been the target of criticism from both the public and the government. The report also notes that the staff routinely takes coffee breaks totaling between two and three hours a day, which is too long for a museum receiving so many people daily. Visitors are unlikely to see the whole museum, not just because it is so enormous, but because it is never fully open. Up to 25 of the exhibition rooms were closed to the public in 2000 because of a shortage of security staff. So visitors are paying for their ticket at a full price, but in fact they are just visiting part of this long-history museum. In other words, visitors have not enjoyed their full privilege, which has been secretly eliminated. Those security staff who are on duty are also causing problems, the report says: A security guard was fired when a Corot painting was stolen in 1998, but it took him more than two years to return his keys and move out of the rent-free flat the museum had given him. The report even concludes that if a work does get stolen, the Louvre is not necessarily likely to know about it!1. What's the best title for this passage?A) Louvre, the famous museum.B) Louvre facing criticism. C) Louvre and its visitors.D) Louvre and the government.2. Which of the following best describes the Louvre experience for millions of visitors according to this report?A) Educational.B) Constructive.C) Frustrating. D) Delightful.3. How is the service at the ticket and information counters according to the report?A) The staff there are hard-working because they always worry about questions from visitors.B) The staff there are patient because they must listen to critics all day long.C) The service is too long for a museum receiving so many visitors every day.D) The service is so inefficient that it worries the visitors. 4. Why are visitors unlikely to see the whole museum?A) Because the museum needs more security guards to be fully open. B) Because the visitors have too limited time for a complete tour.C) Because some exhibition rooms are closed due to inefficient security guards.D) Because visitors are not allowed to visit certain exhibition rooms.5. Why does the author say security guards working for Louvre also cause problems in the last paragraph?A) Because there is always a shortage of them.B) Because they often take a three-hour coffee break.C) Because they are neither well-disciplined nor efficient. D) Because they secretly steal art works from the Louvre.

  • The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding.

  • question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty

  • The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.
