In business, people have to deal in person with all kinds of people. When talking to people within your company who don't speak your language, you may have to use English these people may be colleagues or co-workers – who may work with you in your own department, in another part of the building or in another branch. And you may also have to deal with people from outside the organization clients, suppliers, visitors and members of the public. Moreover, these people may be friends or strangers – people of your own age, or people who are younger or older than you.
The relationship you have with a person determines the kind of language you use. For example, it's not appropriate to say 'Hi, how are you!' when meeting the Managing Director of a large company or to say'Good morning, it's a great pleasure to meet you'when being introduced to a person you'll be working closely with in the same team.
People usually form an impression of you from the way you speak and behave – not just from the way you do your work. People in different countries have different ideas of what sounds friendly, polite or sincere – and of what sounds rude or unfriendly! Good manners in your culture may be considered bad manners in another. Sometimes your body language, gestures and expressions may tell people more about you than the words you use.
题目6：The topic of the passage is __________.
self-image in business situation
the importance of appropriate choice of language

THREE EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT STYLES
Being an effective manager means knowing when to use the right management style. Some styles, for instance, are more people-oriented, while others tend to focus on a project or product. The management style you select will depend on your people skills and knowledge, available resources (like time and money), desired results, and, of course, the task before you. The common management styles can be summarized into three categories.
The participatory style is the first of its kind. Here, it is critical to give each employee an entire task to complete. If that’s not possible, make sure the individual knows and understands his or her part as it relates to the project or task. When people in your team know where they fit in the big picture, they’re more likely to be motivated to complete the task.
Following that, we have the directing style. Sometimes a situation will call for a direct style of management. Perhaps a tight deadline looms, or the project involves numerous employees and requires a top-down management approach. Here, a manager answers five questions for the employees What? Where? How? Why? and When? Let employees know what they need to do, how they’re going to do it, and when the questions must be finished.
The last one is the teamwork style. If you want to speed up a project and choose the best process for completing that project, managing by teamwork is the way to go. When you motivate people to pool their knowledge, the results may exceed your expectations. Often, teams can tackle problems more quickly than what you can accomplish on your own. The give-and-take can create a process that you can repeat in other projects.
1. Being an effective manager lies in knowing the right _____.{A B C}
A. knowledge
B. skills
C. management style
2. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a focus of different management styles?{A B C}
A. People.
B. Customers.
C. Project.
3. Which of the following can’t be inferred from the passage?{A B C}
A. The management style is likely to change because the manager has been replaced.
B. The management style is likely to change because the desired results have changed.
C. The management style is likely to change because the available resources have changed.
4. When people in your team know where they fit in the big picture, they are more likely to be _____ to complete the task.{A B C}
A. frustrated
B. reluctant
C. inspired
5. If you want to speed up a project and choose the best process for completing that project, you can resort to _____.{A B C}
A. team work
B. top-down management
C. tight deadline

LEARNING BUSINESS SKILLS THROUGH JUNIOR ACHIEVEMENT
Junior Achievement is an international movement to educate young people about business and economics for the purpose of helping them prepare to succeed in a world economy.11 The organization is the largest of its kind.
Junior Achievement has gone through different stages in its development. 12 It was started by two business leaders, Horace Moses and Theodore Vail, and Senator Murray Crane in 1919 in Springfield, Massachusetts. The organization started with a small number of children aged ten to twelve. For more than 50 years, Junior Achievement programs met after school as a group of business clubs. But in 1975, Junior Achievement began to offer classes during school hours. Many more young people joined the organization once it began to teach business skills as part of the school day. In 2004, Junior Achievement Worldwide was formed.
The Junior Achievement programs teach about businesses, how they are organized, and how products are made and sold.13 The programs also teach about the American and world economies and business operations. Young people can learn how entrepreneurship works by operating their own companies. For instance, the students develop a product and sell shares in their company. They use the money to buy the materials they need to make their product, which they then sell. Finally, they return the profits to the people who bought shares in the company. It is reported that in the United States alone, there are more than 22,000 places that hold Junior Achievement events currently. According to Junior Achievement, about 287,000 volunteers support its programs around the world.

阅读下面的文章，根据文章内容给题目选择正确的正确答案:答案100分。
Hard sell and soft sell are important business terms and useful strategies for sales staff to know and understand. Both of them can work. The effect depends on the type of customers and the type of products.
A hard sell is a kind of more direct and forceful sales tactics. The sales person just keeps explaining how good the product is, why people should buy it and even how the prices might increase if the consumer walks off.
A soft sell is a different approach. The sales person tries to build trust with consumers. He doesn’t put pressure on them to buy things, just recommending a product and letting the consumers make their own decisions.
An example of soft sell is to distribute free samples to which customers often respond favorably. Businesses can use free samples to build rapport and engage customers in products or services. Recommending products between friends is a little bit like doing soft selling. People don't really care if someone else buys the product. They are just giving their honest opinions and trying to be helpful.
Humor in advertising is also used to attract the consumer's attention and get them interested in the products or services. Customers often resist hard sales tactics, thus making soft-selling much more effective for success.

In addition, the product should be presented to customers through advertising (e.g. TV commercials, newspaper advertisements or posters), packing (e.g. design, labels, materials), publicity, public relation and personal selling. Finally, the product must be available to customers through the most cost effective channels of distribution. A consumer product must be offered to end-users in suitable retail outlets, or available on hire purchase or by mail order.

FUNCTIONS OF LOGISTICS
Logistics is the physical flow process of goods from the point of origin to the point of consumption concerning transportation, warehousing and storage, loading and unloading, goods handling, packing, distribution processing delivery and information management. For example, after a commercial transaction is done, logistics will carry out the transfer of goods from the seller to the buyer for the lowest cost and in the most effective manner. During the transfer process, logistics facilities, equipment (carriers), administration of information and standardization are needed.
Logistics has three major functions. Firstly, it creates time value. The same goods can be valued differently at different times. Goods are often in stagnation during the transfer process, which is called the storage of logistics. Secondly, it creates location value. The same goods can be valued differently at different locations. The value added during the transfer process is the location value of logistics. Thirdly, it creates distribution processing value. Sometimes the distribution processing changes the packages of the goods. That is, during this stage, it cuts large packages of goods into smaller parts, which creates added value for goods.
1. Logistics is the physical flow process of goods from the seller to the buyer. {T F}

No matter how small your business is and what industry you are in, your company has assets. From a computer to a processing plant, every single thing your company owns is an asset.
Assets can be in different forms. Some assets are physical, such as computers, filing cabinets, and delivery vans. Others are legally binding promises, such as accounts receivable, the money owed to your company. Still others seem to exist more on paper, for example, a year’s worth of insurance paid in advance. No matter what form it takes, anything with monetary value that your company owns counts as an asset.
Assets appear on your balance sheet, reporting the key financial statements at the end of each accounting period. Your assets will be split into different types to make analysis easier. The order in which you list them on the balance sheet typically matches the way they appear in your chart of accounts.
Assets do more than just show up on reports, though. They are the resources your company uses to produce revenue. Your business cannot bring in sales without assets. For product-based businesses, you can’t produce anything without proper assets. It’s true for service companies as well. At least, you have to have cash to pay your expenses and to help get the word out that your company exists. Service companies also need basic tools to provide service to customers a hair stylist needs a chair, scissors, and styling tools an accountant needs a computer and a lot of file cabinets. Assets are key factors for any business.
1. Which of the following is NOT physical asset?{A B C}

International trade is the exchange of goods and services between countries. It gives consumers and countries the opportunity to be exposed to goods and services not available in their own countries. Almost every kind of product can be found on the international market food, clothes, spare parts, oil, jewelry, wine, stocks, currencies and water. Services are also traded tourism, banking, consulting and transportation. A product that is sold to the global market is an export, and a product that is bought from the global market is an import.
International trade can benefit us a lot. Trading globally allows us to expand our markets for both goods and services that otherwise may not have been available to us. If you walk into a supermarket and are able to buy Indonesian bananas, Brazilian coffee and a bottle of French wine, you are experiencing the effects of international trade.
International trade brings us both advantages and disadvantages. For instance, international trade may also make the world economy easily affected by factors like prices, supply and demand, as well as global events. Political change in Asia, for example, could result in an increase in the cost of labor, thereby increasing the manufacturing costs for an American sneaker company based in Malaysia, which would then result in an increase in the price that you have to pay to buy the tennis shoes at your local mall. A decrease in the cost of labor, on the other hand, would result in you having to pay less for your new shoes.
