Passage 2
When Jack Welchthe Chairman and CE0 at General Electric(GE) retired in 2001 he could look back at a very successful career He became CE0in1981at the age of 45At that time GE had a very complex organizational structure with cons iderably bureaucratic rules
One of his first changes was to initiate a strategy formulation process with the guideline that each of the businesses should be number 1or2in the irrespective areas If this was not the case managers had the options of fixing the problemselling their particular businessor closing it In an effort to streamline the organizationWelch removed the sector level andel iminated thousands of salaried and hourly employee posi tions
The restructuring was followed by changing the organizat ional culture and the managerial styles of GE＇ s managers One such program was the Work Out (群策群力) Groups of managers were assembled to share their views openly in threeday sess ions At the beginning of the meet ingsthe superior presented the challenges for his or her organizat ional unit Then the super ior had to leave requesting the groups to find solutions to the problems Facilitators(会议持) helped these di scussions 0n the last day the superior was presented with proposed solutions He or she then had three choices to accept the proposal not to accept it or to collect more information This process put great pressure on the superior to make decisions
Another program to improve effectiveness and efficiency was Best Practices The aim was to learn from other companies how they obtained customer satisfaction how they related to their suppliers and in what ways they developed new products This helped the GE people to focus on the processes in their operations that would improve the company＇ s per formance
Jack Welch was personally involved in developing managers at GE＇ s training center in Crotonville LeadersWelch suggested are not only those who achieve results but also those who share the values of the company

Passage 1
The meaning ofcommunication goes a lot deeper than people often think Communicat ion s about conceiving sending receiving and interpreting messages as well as confi rming reception of these messagesA failure at any point in this chain can result in ineffective communicat ion
Ineffective communication can be di sastrous There is a famous story of a British Army Commander who sent the messageSend reinforcements we＇ re going to advance back to his Command Center through along chain of subordinates Then the message final ly reached the Command Centerit hadmutated to becomeSend three and four pence we＇ re going to a dance The reinforcements never arrived
You can demonstrate this same principle albeit on a less dramatic scale by trying to play Chinese Whispers wi th more than 20 people It is highly unl ikely the same message you started with will be the one you end with
In a business there are three main types of conmunication failure Each has its own indicative signs
●The first type is known as allocative failure This occurs when a firm is not gathering
enough intelligence about its market or (most often)the information is not reaching the right points The firm will not be allocating resources in step with the shifts in demand If demand is rising but the firm is suffering from allocative communication failurethen stocks will fall and there will be understaffing If the inverse happensthere will be a surplus of stocks and over staffing
●The second type is executive failurewhere communication to trigger specific eventsactions is either late lacking or in error The symptoms of this area general loss of direction in the company or departments a loss of coordination and an increase in complaints from customers as things happen late or not at all
●The final type is human failure This occurs when the general culture of a business or he relat ionships between particular individuals or departments do not foster effective communication This leads to alienated staff an increase in staff turnover an increase in absenteeism and general frustration among staff Creativity especially that which takes place across departmental boundaries is likely to suffer hugely as team synergy slips
21 Confirming reception of the sent messages means
A the messages are sent to right receivers
B the messages are correctly understood
C the messages are correctly understood by right receivers
22 In the famous British Army Commander story which step probably did NOT go wrong in the communication chain
A Conceiving
B Sending
C Receiving
23 What is Chinese whispers
A Who whispers in Chinese
BA game to pass message around in a whi sper
C Chinese people who don＇ t normally talk very loudly
24 Allocative failure does NOT happen when
A the right information goes to the right place
Ba company gathers false informat ion
C the correct information is not received by the right department or person
25 According to the passage which of the folloring cases does NOT belong to human fai lure
A Decreasing creativity across departments
B Inadequate communicat ion between depar tments
C Increasing cus tomer complaints

Passage 2
Nokia executives attempted to explain its fall from the top of the smart phone pyramid with three factors 1) that Nokia was technically inferior to Apple 2) that the company was complacent and 3) that its leaders didn＇ t see the disruptive iPhone coming
It has also been argued that it was none of the above Nokia lost the smart phone battle because of divergent shared fears among the company＇ s middle and top managers which led to company wide inertia that left it powerless to respond to Apple＇ s game
Based on the findings of an indepth investigation and 76 interviews with top and middle managersengineers and external experts the researchers discovered a culture of fear due to temperamental leaders and that fri ghtened middle managers were scared of telling the truth
The fear that froze the company came from two places First the company＇ s top managers had a terrifying reputation Some members of Nokia＇ s board and top management were descr ibed asextremely temperamentaland they regularly shouted at peopleat the top of their lungs
It was very difficult to tell them things they didn＇ t want to hear Secondly top managers were afraid of the external environment and not meeting their quarterly targetswhich also impacted how they treated middle managers
Top managers thus made middle managers afraid of disappointing them Middle managers were told that they were not ambitious enough to meet top managers＇ goals
Fearing the reactions of top managersmiddle managers remained silent or provided optimisticfiltered information Thus middle managers directly lied to top management
Worsea culture of status inside Nokia made everyone want to hold onto vested power for fear of resources being allocated elsewhere if they delivered bad news or showed that they were not bold or ambitious enough to undertake chal lenging assi gnments
Beyond verbal pressure top managers also applied pressure for faster performance in personnel se lection This led middle managers to over promise and under deliver One middle manager told us that you can get resources by promising something earlier or promising a lot It＇ s sales work
Whi le modest fear might be healthy for motivation abusing it can be like overusing a drugwhich risks generating harmful side effects To reduce this risk leaders should coordinate with the varied emotions of the staff Nokia＇ s top managers should have encouraged safe dialogueinternal coordination and feedback to understand the true emotion in the organi zation
26 Nokia lost the smart phone battle because its technology is not as good as that of AppleF
27 Nokia＇ s middle managers were frank to tell the truth but the top ones didn＇t listen to them F
28 Nokia＇ s top managers were too moody to hear anything good but harsh T
29 Middle managers in Nokia delivered results more than they promised earlier F
30 Nokia＇ s top managers should have had better conversation techniques to encourage internal coordination and truthT

答In company workplace culture there is a big difference between Chinese and Westerners in terms of communicative language Chinese people mostly useHave you eaten Where are you going and so on when meeting each other every day which reflects a kind of int imacy between people But for Westerners this way of greeting will make the other party feel suddenembarrassed and even unpl easantbecause Westerners will understand this kind of questioning as a kind of interrogation and feel that the other party is asking about their private life If you don＇ t understand this difference between Eastern and Western cul tures unnecessary contradictions will arise

(1)Mind the saydo gap Trust is the bedrock of effective leadership your behavior is your single greatest mode of communicationand it must be congruent with what you say If your actions don＇ t align with your words you a restoring up trouble for the future
(2) Make the complex simple Effective leaders distill complex thoughts and strategies into simplememorable terms that col leagues and cus tomers can grasp and act uponThe most important thing is to clarify what you want to say lookout for technical jargon and avoid bus iness speakwhich add complexity Say what you mean in as few words as possible
(3)Find your own voice Use language that＇ s distinctly your own let your values come through in your communication Correct use of language and gramnar are importantof course but don’t become overly fixated on eloquence for eloquence＇ s sake concentrate on being distinct and real People want real people respect real people follow real
(4)Be visible Visibility is about letting your key stakeholders get a feel for who you are and what you care about Don’t hide behind a computer and only interact with people electronically see them face to face and voice to voice and interact with them in a realsubstantial way In today＇ s envi ronment where people are often burned outit＇ s important for employees to have a personal connection with you and the work you believe in Show the people that work for you that you＇ re engaged and that you care about them and their work
(5)Listen wi th your eyes as well as your ears Effective communication is a two way processand good leaders know how to ask good questions and then listen with both their eyes and their ears Because you are in a position of authority others maybe reluctant to express their real opinions to you directly You won＇ t always get direct feedback so you need to also be able to read between the lines and look for the nonverbal cues

Passage 2
In competitive markets1 eaders are under increased pressure to maintain a positive work cultureA positive work culture cultivates greater employee satisfaction greater employee satisfaction contributes to hi gher performance hi gher performance impacts improved client outcomes improved client outcomes contribute to service excellence
Positive work cultures are built overtime and need constant at tention Such cultures are dependent on leadership vision and values
An effective leader sets the tone for the team encourages a positive workplace cul ture an disable to bring about cultural change
Workplace culture is made up of the shared atti tudesbeliefs behaviors values and expectations that influence the way people work in the workplace It isthe way we do things around here
Some cul tural aspects are understood by all and are obvious such as turning up for wok on time while others maybeunwritten rulesthat are not so obvious for example how personal issues are resolved with work colleagues
Many factors that influence whether a workplace has a positive outlook are within the control of people who work in a workplace There are also factors out of their control such as slumps in global prices or a change in demand and supply The company canhowever control how they respond to these factors
Those companies that do create positive workplace env ironments develop a reputation in their community as being ＇good to work for’ and have a competitive edge Not only are these companies more able to attract and retain peoplethey tend to be more stable as they proactively deal with issues and adapt to change
Teams work best when they are clear about what is expected of them They are more able to deal with difficult issues if they feel the values of the organization are supportive of them
For a workplace culture to be positive the direction and actions of the business must be consistent with the core values of the people in the workplace The people must trust each other and be able to openly express and exchange ideas
Working through these steps will help with developing a positive business cul ture
26A positive work culture will give workers more sat isfaction T
27 Positive cultures have a lot to do with leadership vision and values T
28 The direction and actions for the business must differ from the core values of the employees in order for a workplace culture to be positive F

答In Chinese and Western workplace cul tures the understanding of work is significantly different Foreign companies generally believe that hiring an employee is to work for him and earn money for himself so treat employees well while Chinese bosses generally think I hire someone and take my salary so I have to listen to mework for meThis different understanding of the nature of work may lead to completely different work attitudes for employees at work

Passage 2
When Jack Welchthe Chairman and CE0 at General Electric(GE) retired in 2001 he could look back at a very successful career He became CE0in1981at the age of 45At that time GE had a very complex organizational structure with cons iderably bureaucratic rules
One of his first changes was to initiate a strategy formulation process with the guideline that each of the businesses should be number 1or2in the irrespective areas If this was not the case managers had the options of fixing the problemselling their particular businessor closing it In an effort to streamline the organizationWelch removed the sector level andel iminated thousands of salaried and hourly employee posi tions
The restructuring was followed by changing the organizat ional culture and the managerial styles of GE＇ s managers One such program was the Work Out (群策群力) Groups of managers were assembled to share their views openly in threeday sess ions At the beginning of the meet ingsthe superior presented the challenges for his or her organizat ional unit Then the super ior had to leave requesting the groups to find solutions to the problems Facilitators(会议持) helped these di scussions 0n the last day the superior was presented with proposed solutions He or she then had three choices to accept the proposal not to accept it or to collect more information This process put great pressure on the superior to make decisions
Another program to improve effectiveness and efficiency was Best Practices The aim was to learn from other companies how they obtained customer satisfaction how they related to their suppliers and in what ways they developed new products This helped the GE people to focus on the processes in their operations that would improve the company＇ s per formance
Jack Welch was personally involved in developing managers at GE＇ s training center in Crotonville LeadersWelch suggested are not only those who achieve results but also those who share the values of the company

Passage 1
The meaning ofcommunication goes a lot deeper than people often think Communicat ion s about conceiving sending receiving and interpreting messages as well as confi rming reception of these messagesA failure at any point in this chain can result in ineffective communicat ion
Ineffective communication can be di sastrous There is a famous story of a British Army Commander who sent the messageSend reinforcements we＇ re going to advance back to his Command Center through along chain of subordinates Then the message final ly reached the Command Centerit hadmutated to becomeSend three and four pence we＇ re going to a dance The reinforcements never arrived
You can demonstrate this same principle albeit on a less dramatic scale by trying to play Chinese Whispers wi th more than 20 people It is highly unl ikely the same message you started with will be the one you end with
In a business there are three main types of conmunication failure Each has its own indicative signs
●The first type is known as allocative failure This occurs when a firm is not gathering
enough intelligence about its market or (most often)the information is not reaching the right points The firm will not be allocating resources in step with the shifts in demand If demand is rising but the firm is suffering from allocative communication failurethen stocks will fall and there will be understaffing If the inverse happensthere will be a surplus of stocks and over staffing
●The second type is executive failurewhere communication to trigger specific eventsactions is either late lacking or in error The symptoms of this area general loss of direction in the company or departments a loss of coordination and an increase in complaints from customers as things happen late or not at all
●The final type is human failure This occurs when the general culture of a business or he relat ionships between particular individuals or departments do not foster effective communication This leads to alienated staff an increase in staff turnover an increase in absenteeism and general frustration among staff Creativity especially that which takes place across departmental boundaries is likely to suffer hugely as team synergy slips
21 Confirming reception of the sent messages means
A the messages are sent to right receivers
B the messages are correctly understood
C the messages are correctly understood by right receivers
22 In the famous British Army Commander story which step probably did NOT go wrong in the communication chain
A Conceiving
B Sending
C Receiving
23 What is Chinese whispers
A Who whispers in Chinese
BA game to pass message around in a whi sper
C Chinese people who don＇ t normally talk very loudly
24 Allocative failure does NOT happen when
A the right information goes to the right place
Ba company gathers false informat ion
C the correct information is not received by the right department or person
25 According to the passage which of the folloring cases does NOT belong to human fai lure
A Decreasing creativity across departments
B Inadequate communicat ion between depar tments
C Increasing cus tomer complaints

Passage 2
Nokia executives attempted to explain its fall from the top of the smart phone pyramid with three factors 1) that Nokia was technically inferior to Apple 2) that the company was complacent and 3) that its leaders didn＇ t see the disruptive iPhone coming
It has also been argued that it was none of the above Nokia lost the smart phone battle because of divergent shared fears among the company＇ s middle and top managers which led to company wide inertia that left it powerless to respond to Apple＇ s game
Based on the findings of an indepth investigation and 76 interviews with top and middle managersengineers and external experts the researchers discovered a culture of fear due to temperamental leaders and that fri ghtened middle managers were scared of telling the truth
The fear that froze the company came from two places First the company＇ s top managers had a terrifying reputation Some members of Nokia＇ s board and top management were descr ibed asextremely temperamentaland they regularly shouted at peopleat the top of their lungs
It was very difficult to tell them things they didn＇ t want to hear Secondly top managers were afraid of the external environment and not meeting their quarterly targetswhich also impacted how they treated middle managers
Top managers thus made middle managers afraid of disappointing them Middle managers were told that they were not ambitious enough to meet top managers＇ goals
Fearing the reactions of top managersmiddle managers remained silent or provided optimisticfiltered information Thus middle managers directly lied to top management
Worsea culture of status inside Nokia made everyone want to hold onto vested power for fear of resources being allocated elsewhere if they delivered bad news or showed that they were not bold or ambitious enough to undertake chal lenging assi gnments
Beyond verbal pressure top managers also applied pressure for faster performance in personnel se lection This led middle managers to over promise and under deliver One middle manager told us that you can get resources by promising something earlier or promising a lot It＇ s sales work
Whi le modest fear might be healthy for motivation abusing it can be like overusing a drugwhich risks generating harmful side effects To reduce this risk leaders should coordinate with the varied emotions of the staff Nokia＇ s top managers should have encouraged safe dialogueinternal coordination and feedback to understand the true emotion in the organi zation
26 Nokia lost the smart phone battle because its technology is not as good as that of AppleF
27 Nokia＇ s middle managers were frank to tell the truth but the top ones didn＇t listen to them F
28 Nokia＇ s top managers were too moody to hear anything good but harsh T
29 Middle managers in Nokia delivered results more than they promised earlier F
30 Nokia＇ s top managers should have had better conversation techniques to encourage internal coordination and truthT

答In company workplace culture there is a big difference between Chinese and Westerners in terms of communicative language Chinese people mostly useHave you eaten Where are you going and so on when meeting each other every day which reflects a kind of int imacy between people But for Westerners this way of greeting will make the other party feel suddenembarrassed and even unpl easantbecause Westerners will understand this kind of questioning as a kind of interrogation and feel that the other party is asking about their private life If you don＇ t understand this difference between Eastern and Western cul tures unnecessary contradictions will arise

In competitive markets1 eaders are under increased pressure to maintain a positive work cultureA positive work culture cultivates greater employee satisfaction greater employee satisfaction contributes to hi gher performance hi gher performance impacts improved client outcomes improved client outcomes contribute to service excellence
Positive work cultures are built overtime and need constant at tention Such cultures are dependent on leadership vision and values
An effective leader sets the tone for the team encourages a positive workplace cul ture an disable to bring about cultural change
Workplace culture is made up of the shared atti tudesbeliefs behaviors values and expectations that influence the way people work in the workplace It isthe way we do things around here
Some cul tural aspects are understood by all and are obvious such as turning up for wok on time while others maybeunwritten rulesthat are not so obvious for example how personal issues are resolved with work colleagues
Many factors that influence whether a workplace has a positive outlook are within the control of people who work in a workplace There are also factors out of their control such as slumps in global prices or a change in demand and supply The company canhowever control how they respond to these factors
Those companies that do create positive workplace env ironments develop a reputation in their community as being ＇good to work for’ and have a competitive edge Not only are these companies more able to attract and retain peoplethey tend to be more stable as they proactively deal with issues and adapt to change
Teams work best when they are clear about what is expected of them They are more able to deal with difficult issues if they feel the values of the organization are supportive of them
For a workplace culture to be positive the direction and actions of the business must be consistent with the core values of the people in the workplace The people must trust each other and be able to openly express and exchange ideas
Working through these steps will help with developing a positive business cul ture
