Communication can be the most critical aspect of whether a change strategy will succeed or fail.【T1】The degree to which information flows down through the organization can influence how well the change vision is understood and embraced.It can impact the values, behaviors and mindset of the workforce. It can either clarify or muddle a company's organizational structure and employee roles and it can enhance or detract from the culture the leadership is trying to maintain.【T2】Executives who have successfully led change efforts advocate in-person discussions and meetings as the most effective communication vehicles.The degree to which information is shared across the organization can impact speed and flexibility tremendously. Lateral communication and cooperation is important to buying an innovative organization as it supports risk-taking and provides tools to take action.【T3】Continuous innovation, a critical element of e-business strategy, is at the mercy of an organization's communication structure.【T4】In today's business environment, the challenge associated with communication is not simple one of volume.Instead, it is the need to reach the target audience(both internal and external)with messages that include strategic, tactical and WIIFM laments. It is the need to prioritize the communications for the target audiences(so that the most important will be absorbed first), as well as the need to strike a balance between too little and too much information.【T5】In the e-business environment, building a relationship with customers is critical, and this cannot be achieved without hearing their suggestions, needs and desires.To be effective for internal audiences, communication must share what is and what is not changing. Communication builds commitment, and is the key to overcoming resistance to the change.

39． Which of the following is not a pair of additive and subtractive primary colors?

40． What explanation is given for the use of the subtractive method in modern color films?

38． Which of the following is closest in meaning to the phrase "passes on" as used in paragraph ?

There are two ways to create colors in a photograph. One method, called additive, starts with three basic colors and adds them together to produce some other color. The second method, called subtractive, starts with white light(a mixture of all colors in the spectrum)and, by taking away some or all other colors, leaves the one desired. In the additive method, separate colored lights combine to produce various other colors. The three additive primary colors are green, red, and blue(each providing about one third of the wavelengths in the total spectrum). Mixed in varying proportions, they can produce all colors. Green and red light mix to produce yellow; red and blue light mix to produce magenta; green and blue mix to produce cyan. When equal parts of all three of these primary-colored beams of light overlap, the mixture appears white to the eye. In the subtractive process, colors are produced when dye(as in paint or color photographic materials)absorbs some wavelengths and so passes on only part of the spectrum. The subtractive primaries are cyan(a bluish green), magenta(a purplish pink), and yellow. These are the pigments or dyes that absorb red, green, and blue wavelengths, respectively, thus subtracting them from white light. These dye colors are the complementary colors to the three additive primaries of red, green, and blue. Properly combined , the subtractive primaries can absorb all colors of light, producing black. But, mixed in varying proportions, they too can produce any color in the spectrum. Whether a particular color is obtained by adding colored lights together or by subtracting some light from the total spectrum, the result looks the same to the eye. The additive process was employed for early color photography. But the subtractive method, while requiring complex chemical techniques, has turned out to be more practical and is the basis of all modern color films.

37． What does the passage mainly discuss?

36． The aim of the voyages Maury was responsible for in the 1840s was______.

Oceanography has been defined as "The application of all sciences to the study of the sea". Before the nineteenth century scientists with an interest in the sea were few and far between. Certainly Newton considered some theoretical aspects of it in his writings, but he was reluctant to go to sea to further his work. For most people the sea was remote, and with the exception of early intercontinental travelers or others who earned a living from the sea, there was little reason to ask many questions about it, let alone to ask what lay beneath the surface. The first time that the question " What is at the bottom of the oceans?" had to be answered with any commercial consequence was when the laying of a telegraph cable from Europe to America was proposed. The engineer had to know the depth profile(起伏形状)of the route to estimate the length of cable that had to be manufactured. It was to Maury of the US Navy that the Atlantic Telegraph Company turned, in 1853, for information on this matter. In the 1840s, Maury had been responsible for encouraging voyages during which soundings(测深)were taken to investigate the depths of the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Later, some of his findings aroused much popular interest in his book The Physical Geography of the Sea. The cable was laid, but not until 1866 was the connection made permanent and reliable. At the early attempts, the cable failed and when it was taken out for repairs it was found to be covered in living growths, a fact which defied contemporary scientific opinion that there was no life in the deeper parts of the sea. Within a few years oceanography was under way. In 1872 Thomson led a scientific expedition(考察), which lasted for four years and brought home thousands of samples from the sea. Their classification and analysis occupied scientists for years and led to a five-volume report, the last volume being published in 1895.

34． The proposal to lay a telegraph cable from Europe to America made oceanographic studies take on______.

35． It was ______that asked Maury for help in oceanographic studies.

33． According to the passage, Puritans believed that an unmarried adult woman should be______.

30． 【C10】

The status of women in colonial North America has been well studied and described and can be briefly summarized. Throughout the colonial period there was a marked shortage of women, which varied with the regions and was always greatest in the frontier areas. This favorable ratio enhanced women's status and position and allowed them to pursue different careers. The Puritans, the religious sect that dominated the early British colonies in North America, regarded idleness as a sin, and believed that life in an underdeveloped country made it absolutely necessary that each member of the community performed an economic function. Thus work for women, married or single, was not only approved, it was regarded as a civic duty. Puritan town councils expected widows and unattached women to be self-supporting and for a long time provided needy spinsters with parcels of land. There was no social sanction against married women working; on the contrary, wives were expected to help their husbands in their trade and won social approval for doing extra work in or out of the home. Needy children, girls as well as boys, were indentured or apprenticed and were expected to work for their keep. The vast majority of women worked within their homes, where their labor produced most articles needed for the family. The entire colonial production of cloth and clothing was in the hands of women. In addition to these occupations, women were found in many different kinds of employment. They were butchers, silversmiths, gunsmiths, upholsterers. They ran mills, plantations, lanyards, shipyards, and every kind of shop, tavern, and boardinghouse. They were gatekeepers, jail keepers, sextons, journalists, printers, apothecaries, midwives, nurses, and teachers.

31． According to the passage, where in colonial North America were there the fewest women?

32． The word "enhanced" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to which of the following?

During recent years we have heard much about "race" : how this race does certain things and that race believes certain things and so on. Yet, the【C1】______phenomenon of race consists of a few surface indications. We judge race usually from the coloring of the skin: a white race, a brown race, a yellow race and a black race. But【C2】______you were to remove the skin you could not tell anything about the race to which the individual belonged. There is【C3】______physical structure, the brain or the internal organs to indicate a difference. There are four types of blood.【C4】______types are found in every race, and no type is distinct to any race. Human brains are the same. No scientists could examine a brain and tell you the race to which the individual belonged. Brains will【C5】______in size, but this occurs within every race. Nor does size have anything to do with intelligence. The largest brain【C6】______examined belonged to a person of weak mind. On the other hand, some of our most distinguished people have had【C7】______brains. Mental tests which are reasonably accurate show no differences in intelligence between races. High and low test results both can be recorded by different members of any race.【C8】______equal educational advantages, there will be no difference in average standings, either on account of race or geographical location. Individuals of every race cause civilization to go backward or forward. Training and education can change the response of a group of people,【C9】______enable them to behave in a peculiar way. The behavior and ideals of people change according to circumstances, but they can always go back or go on to something new【C10】______is better and higher than anything in the past.
