Therefore, it often expresses your internal states. Consciously and unconsciously, intentionally and unintentionally, people make important judgments and decisions (36)_ the internal states of others-states they often express without words. For example, you (37)evaluate the quality of your relationships according to (38)_ of these nonverbal messages. Nonverbal communication is a powerful tool for expressing your emotional and relational feelings toward another person. It is also used to create and manage impressions. From tone of voice, to the distance between you and your partners, to the amount of touching in which you (39)_, you can gather clues to the closeness of your relationships. Nonverbal communication is so (40)_ that a shifting of body zones can also send a message. The first time you move from holding hands with your partner to touching his or her face, you are sending a message, and that message takes on added (41)_ if your touch is returned.If you observe someone with a clenched fist and a grim (42)_, you do not need words to tell you that this person is not happy. If you hear someones voice quaver and see his or her hands (43)_, you may infer that the person is fearful or (44) _, despite what he or she might say. Your emotions are reflected in your posture, face, and eyes-be it fear, joy, anger or sadness- so you can express them without ever (45)_ a word. For this reason, most people rely heavily on what they learn through their eyes. In fact, research indicates that you will believe nonverbal messages instead of verbal messages when the two (46)_ each other. As Heraclitus remarked over two thousand years ago, “Eyes are more accurate witnesses than ears.”Part Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (40 minutes)Section ADirections: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.A department stores the land upon which the building is located, the labor of the employees, (1) _ in the form of building, equipment and merchandise, and the management skills of the store managers. On a farm, the operation system is the transformation that occurs when a farmers (2) _ (land, equipment, labor, etc.) are converted into such outputs as corn, wheat or milk. The exact form of the conversion process (3) _ from industry to industry, but it is an (4) _phenomenon that exists in every industry. Economists refer to this (5) _ of resources into goods and services as the production function. For all operation systems, the general goal is to create some kind of value-added outputs that are worth more to consumers than just the sum of the inputs. To the consumers, the resulting products (6) _ utility due to the form, the time, or the place of their availability from the conversion process.However, the process is subject to random changes. Unplanned or uncontrollable influences may cause the actual output to differ from planned output. Random fluctuations can arise from external disruption (fire, floods or lightning, for example) or from (7) _ problems inherent in the conversion process. Inherent variability of equipment, material imperfections, and human errors all affect output quality (8)_. In fact, random variations are the rule rather than the exception in production processes; therefore, (9) _ variation becomes a major management task.The function of the feedback is to provide (10) _ linkages. Without some feedback of information, cannot control operations because they don t know the results of their directions.A) offer H) transformationB) capital I) beautifullyC) medium J) economicD)difficult K) reducingE) varies L) internalF) differently M) inputsG) proposal N) afford O) informationSection BDirections: In this section, you will read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Googles Plan for Worlds Biggest Online Library: Philanthropy Or Act of Piracy?AIn recent years, teams of workers dispatched by Google have been working hard to make digital copies of books. So far, Google has scanned more than 10 million titles from libraries in America and Europe - including half a million volumes held by the Bodleian in Oxford. The exact method it uses is unclear; the company does not allow outsiders to observe the process.BWhy is Google undertaking such a venture? Why is it even interested in all those out-of-print library books, most of which have been gathering dust on forgotten shelves for decades? The company claims its motives are essentially public-spirited. Its overall mission, after all, is to organise the worlds information, so it would be odd if that information did not include books.CThe company likes to present itself as having lofty aspirations. This really isnt about making money. We are doing this for the good of society. As Santiago de la Mora, head of Google Books for Europe, puts it: By making it possible to search the millions of books that exist today, we hope to expand the frontiers of human knowledge.DDan Clancy, the chief architect of Google Books, does seem genuine in his conviction that this is primarily a philanthropic exercise. Googles core business is search and find, so obviously what helps improve Googles search engine is good for Google, he says. But we have never built a spreadsheet outlining the financial benefits of this, and I have never had to justify the amount I am spending to the companys founders.EIt is easy, talking to Clancy and his colleagues, to be swept along by their missionary passion. But Googles book-scanning project is proving controversial. Several opponents have recently emerged, ranging from rival tech giants such as Microsoft and Amazon to small bodies representing authors and publishers across the world. In broad terms, these opponents have leveled two sets of criticisms at Google.FFirst, they have questioned whether the primary responsibility for digitally archiving the worlds books should be allowed to fall to a commercial company. In a recent essay in the New York Review of Books, Robert Darnton, the head of Harvard Universitys library, argued that because such books are a common resource the possession of us all only public, not-for-profit bodies should be given the power to control them.GThe second related criticism is that Googles scanning of books is actually illegal. This allegation has led to Google becoming mired in a legal battle whose scope and complexity makes the Jarndyce and Jarndyce case in Charles Dickens Bleak House look straightforward.HAt its centre, however, is one simple issue: that of copyright. The inconvenient fact about most books, to which Google has arguably paid insufficient attention, is that they are protected by copyright. Copyright laws differ from country to country, but in general protection extends for the duration of an authors life and for a substantial period afterwards, thus allowing the authors heirs to benefit. (In Britain and America, this post-death period is 70 years.) This means, of course, that almost all of the books published in the 20th century are still under copyright and the last century saw more books published than in all previous centuries combined. Of the roughly 40 million books in US libraries, for example, an estimated 32 million are in copyright. Of these, some 27 million are out of print.IOutside the US, Google has made sure only to scan books that are out of copyright and thus in the public domain (works such as the Bodleians first edition of Middlemarch, which anyone can read for free on Google Books Search).JBut, within the US, the company has scanned both in-copyright and out-of-copyright works. Inits defence, Google points out that it displays only small segments of books that are in copyright arguing that such displays are fair use. But critics allege that by making electronic copies of these books without first seeking the permission of copyright holders, Google has committed piracy.KThe key principle of copyright law has always been that works can be copied only once authors have expressly given their permission, says Piers Blofeld, of the Sheil Land literary agency in London. Google has reversed this it has simply copied all these works without bothering toask.LIn 2005, the Authors Guild of America, together with a group of US publishers, launched a class action suit against Google that, after more than two years of negotiation, ended with an announcement last October that Google and the claimants had reached an out-of-court settlement. The full details are complicated - the text alone runs to 385 pages and trying to summarise it is no easy task. Part of the problem is that it is basically incomprehensible, says Blofeld, one of the settlements most vocal British critics.MBroadly, the deal provides a mechanism for Google to compensate authors and publishers whose rights it has breached (including giving them a share of any future revenue it generates from their works). In exchange for this, the rights holders agree not to sue Google in future.NThis settlement hands Google the power - but only with the agreement of individual rights holders to exploit its database of out-of-print books. It can include them in subscription deals sold to libraries or sell them individually under a consumer licence. It is these commercial provisions that are proving the settlements most controversial aspect.OCritics point out that, by giving Google the right to commercially exploit its database, the settlement paves the way for a subtle shift in the companys role from provider of information to seller. Googles business model has always been to provide information for free, and sell advertising on the basis of the traffic this generates, points out James Grimmelmann, associate professor at New York Law School. Now, he says, because of the settlements provisions, Google could become a signi
