Passage TwoQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.A multitasker is one who can perform two or more tasks effectively at the same time, which—apart from the obvious differences—is similar to what a computer does.The concept does indeed come from the realms of technology, where it is used to refer to an operating system that can execute multiple tasks at the same time.However, the question is: can a person really be a multitasker?For most scientists, the answer is no.So much so that, according to experts in neuroscience (神经系统科学), our brains do not handle multitasking situations well.As soon as two tasks require our attention, productivity suffers.What we call multitasking, therefore, is in reality the ability to move more or less quickly from one task to another.This requires two essential conditions: that one of the tasks needs to be automatic, like walking on eating, and that they both need different mental processes.Answering the phone and writing at the same time, for example.However, on the other side of the coin there are people who maintain that it is possible to be, or at least seem to be, multitasking.A recent study concluded that regardless of whether people are actually handling several tasks or not, the mere fact that they perceive this activity as multitasking has a positive effect on their performance.The business perspective offers a different view: multitasking is understood as the ability to adapt to all types of environment within a company and effectively undertake different activities within a set time frame.Indeed, many companies loo for people who are skilled in multitasking to improve their productivity.From this different perspective, you can not only be multitasking but this ability can also be taught: something that is easier in fluid organisations, which favour flexibility in their working practices.The benefits of multitasking are clear.Being quicker and more efficient increases our performance and the number of tasks completed.But having to pay attention to several things at once means that the powers of concentration are reduced and that can lead to more mistakes.1、What does a“multitasker" originally refer to?A.n operating system capable of doing several tasks at once.B.A skilled worker executing more than one task at the same time.C.A sophisticated technology doing several tasks effectively at once.D.An efficient person able to perform multiple tasks at the same time.2、Why can´t people really be multitaskers according to neuroscientists?E.They are not sufficiently exposed to multitasking situations.F.They are not comparable to mechanical operating systems.G.Their brains do not allow them to multitask.H.Their attention span cannot be expanded.3、What do we learn from the conclusion of a recent study on multitasking?I.People make greater achievements by maintaining whatever they are doing is multitasking.J.People´s performance benefits from the perception of what they are doing as multitasking.K.People´s active mental processes exert a positive effect on their multitasking.L.People can improve their capabilities by handling multitasking situations.4、How does the business world view multitasking?M.It is a rare skill often found in fluid organisations.N.It is an adaptable capability required of all workers.O.It is an essential quality many employees lack.P.It is a desirable ability that can be developed.5、What does the author imply we should do if we have to focus on some task and do it wel!?Q.Work in a flexible way.R.Learn from mistakes.S.Avoid multitasking.T.Increase efficiency.

Americans experience more food recalls (召回) today than they did five years ago, especially when it comes to meat and poultry (家禽). Meat and poultry recalls increased by two-thirds from 2013 to 2018, while food recalls overall went up 10%, according to the report recently published by the U.S. Public Interest Research Group.Meanwhile, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates (估计) 48 million people get sick, 128,000 are hospitalized and 3,000 die from food-borne disease each year in the U.S. "We are looking for the farm-to-fork preventative solutions," said Adam Garber, the research group's consumer watchdog. "By doing that, we can protect people's health."Over the five-year period, poultry posted the most recalls (168), followed by beef (137) and pork (128). The report shows the most serious meat recalls are on the rise. Among meat and poultry, the number of Class I recalls has increased by 83%, nearly doubling. Class I, the most serious of the recalls, is issued when there is a reasonable probability that the food will cause health problems or death.53. When would Class I recalls be issued?A. When the food is likely to cause health problems or death.B. When there are too many complaints from customers.C. When the food problem lasts for five years.D. When the product quality is below standard.

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.

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. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.
