Directions: In this section, you will hear three short passages. At the end of each passage, you will

hear some questions. The passage will be read twice. Listen carefully and choose the best answer to each of the following questions you hear. Passage 1

What does it mean to be a manager? The first thought that comes to mind might be that a manager gives orders and tells other people what to do. But that isn't the whole story. In fact, managers have to take orders as much as anyone else. Every business has goals and objectives. The manager is told to reach these goals and objectives. Sometimes they are given freedom to achieve the goals; other times they are told how to achieve them. A manager has to look ahead and see if there are any problems that might come along. A manager also has to control. Control in management means to make sure that the business is reaching the goal. Managers are expected to get results of one sort or another, in one way or another, but they get results through people. The manager of a football team never kicks the ball, but he is expected to get the best out of the players. He also has to make sure that the team works well together. This happens in every kind of business and is called coordination.

Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard. 11. Which of the following is true according to the passage? 12. What are managers expected to do?

13. What is important for workers in every business?

Passage 2

A little woman armed with a knife robbed a shop after threatening the assistant. The woman walked into the shop at 23:40 and pulled out the bread knife from her coat. She forced the young girl assistant to open the money-drawer before robbing the entire day's income. The robbery happened on Sunday night, and police are appealing for witness. The shop owner, Mr. Green said: “It is unbelievable. It has never happened before in the 27 years I have been in business.” Police took the assistant around pubs in the town after the robbery to try to find the robber, but without result. Mr. Green said the day's income was taken away. It might have been $230. Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard. 14. Which of the following statements is wrong about the robber? 15. What did the police do after the robbery? 16. How much money was robbed?

Passage 3

If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington, concluded that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities. He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking. This doesn't mean that all people are less intelligent in summer. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be the lowest in summer. Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in spring man's mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature. Fall is the next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking! Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.

17. What did Ellsworth Huntington say about “climate and temperature”? 18. What are the best seasons for thinking?

19. Why is spring the best season for thinking? 20. What's the best title for the passage?
