在每个问题后所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。 （每小题 2 分，共 30 分）

Passage One

More traditional approaches to studying leadership are the trait approach, the behavioral approach, and the situational approach.

The trait approach is the oldest leadership perspective and was dominant for several decades.

This approach seems logical for studying leadership: It focuses on individual leaders and attempts

to determine the personal characteristics (traits) that great leaders share. What set Winston Churchill, Alexander the Great, Gandhi, Napoleon, and Martin Luther King apart from the crowd? The trait approach assumes the existence of a leadership personality and that leaders are born not made. But the perspective of the 1990s is that although some personality traits do distinguish

effective leaders from other people, a person need not be born with these traits, but can strive to

acquire them. These traits may include drive, leader- ship motivation, integrity, self-confidence, knowledge of the business, and the ability to perceive the needs and goals of followers and to

adjust one’s personal leadership approach accordingly.

The behavioral approach attempts to identify what good leaders do. Should leaders focus on

getting the job done or on keeping their followers happy? Should they make decisions autocratically or democratically? In the behavioral approach, personal characteristics are

considered less important than the behaviors leaders exhibit. Three general categories of

leadership behavior have received particular attention: behaviors related to task performance, group maintenance, and employee participation in decision making.

According to proponents of the situational approaches to leadership, universally important

traits and behaviors don ’t exist. They believe effective leader behaviors vary from situation to situation. The leader should first analyze the situation and then decide what to do. In other words, look before you lead.

21.What does the word “trait” in the 1 st paragraph mean?

A. Ability. B. Trade.

C. Trial. D. Characteristic.

22.Which of the following approaches is considered to be the oldest leadership perspective?

A. The trait approach. B. The traditional approach.

C. The behavioral approach. D. The situational approach.

23.What does the trait approach assume?

A. Leaders are born. B. Leaders are made.

C. Personality traits can be acquired. D. There’s no leadership personality.

24.Which of the following isn ’t the traditional approach to the study of leadership?

1. Study of leaders’ personal characteristics.
2. Study of leaders’ conduct.

Study of the environment of leaders.

1. Study of leaders’ magic power.

25.What’s the author’s attitude toward these traditional approaches?

1. He agrees with them.
2. He criticizes the situational approach.
3. He criticizes the behavioral approach.
4. He introduces them objectively.

Passage Two

The danger of being sued by a client for problems created by an intermediary has forced

travel agents and such suppliers as airlines to seek protection through insurance and the use of

disclaimers. A disclaimer is a statement that is written into a contract explaining that the travel

agent or supplier will not be liable for acts or errors of wholesalers and other third parties, such as tour guides and chauffeurs. To be fully protected, a disclaimer normally must be presented to the

client both in writing and orally.

Travel agents and suppliers have found that it is important to review carefully all of the advertising and promotional materials they give to clients to make certain the wording in such

material does not negate their disclaimers. It is natural for a travel agency to want to convince

clients that it is professional and offers dependable service; however, such claims may create problems if they should prove untrue. For example, an agency called the Four Winds Travel

Agency once stated the following in its advertising:

Four Winds also guarantees that every tour will be escorted by a qualified professional tour director. Our directors are carefully selected and trained. Your Four Winds jet tour is an

escorted tour. From the moment you leave until your journey ends, you are cared for by a

carefully selected Four Winds Tour Escort.

A client purchased a 47-day tour for a Four Winds tour to South America. During her visit to Brazil she was being transported in a boat on the Amazon River near Manaus. The boat was not

owned by Four Winds, and the guide was not a Four Winds employee. As the boat docked at

Manaus, the client slipped and fell in the Amazon. Although it was an accident, she sued Four

Winds. The court agreed that the promotional literature had led her to believe Four Winds would

be in charge of the tour.

26.In this passage a disclaimer ________ .

1. is an oral statement
2. is often used by clients
3. can free a travel agent from liability in certain matters
4. is used by a wholesaler to sue a travel agent

27.The word “wording” in the 1st sentence of the 2nd paragraph means _________________________________________________ .

1. the words chosen to express something
2. the lengthy sentences
3. the ambiguous words
4. the word order

28.In the example, the client purchased a tour to _________ .

A. the Amazon River B. Manaus

C. South America D. Four Winds

29.The client fell in the Amazon River when she was escorted by _________________________________________________ .

1. a qualified professional tour director
2. a guide who was not a Four Winds employee
3. a carefully selected Four Winds Tour Escort
4. a guide who accompanied her all the way to the destination

30. _________ won the lawsuit.

A. The new guide B. The guide with Four Winds

C. Four winds D. The client

Passage Three

California Pizza Kitchen was created in 1985 by two former federal prosecutors looking for

“something different ” to do. This restaurant chain specializes in “designer pizza”, in which the

pizza crust is a“canvas” for exotic food toppings such as Thai chicken or southwestern burritos. The formula of offering stylish main courses costing less than $10 in a sit-down setting brought success. In only nine years, CPK mushroomed into a national chain of 77 restaurants with plans to expand tenfold in the years to come.

Part of its recipe for success was its intensive use of information systems. The fast-food

restaurant business is extremely competitive. To remain profitable, restaurants need to tightly control food and labor costs while maintaining the quality of food and service. Since diners are

put off by high prices, the only way to contain costs is through inventory and portion control.

CPK keeps precise track of the amount of ingredients used in each menu item and stocks only as much of these ingredients as each restaurant needs.

Waiters and waitresses enter data about each menu item ordered into handheld point-of-sale

(POS) device in all CPK restaurants. These devices transmit the ordering information via radio

frequencies to a server in the back of the restaurant. Each restaurant transmits its sales data and inventory reports to PCs at the company ’s home office, where the information is consolidated and

analyzed. One application called Inventory Express “remembers” ordering patterns, such as the

amount of tomatoes a restaurant needs each week, and compares the amount of each item used to what each restaurant actually sold. If, for example, a restaurant sold 100 Peking Duck pizzas in

one week, it should have used a predetermined amount of duck meat, such as 40 pounds, based on

portion measurements established by CPK management. Using more duck meat would indicate a

problem with over-portioning or waste. Restaurants with out-of-line portions would be told to take corrective action.

31.California Pizza Kitchen is _________ .

A. an Italian restaurant B. a pizza stand

C. a restaurant chain D. a gourmet restaurant

32.The word “canvas” in the 2nd sentence of the 1st paragraph doesn’t mean _________________________________________________ .

A. crust B. cloth

C. topping D. burrito

33.To remain profitable, CPK doesn ’t _________ .

1. stock more ingredients than needed by each restaurant
2. tightly control food and labor cost.
3. maintain the quality of food and service
4. offer inexpensive stylish main courses.

34.The portion measurements are established by ________ .

A. each restaurant B. waiters and waitresses

C. the two federal prosecutors. D. CPK management

35.Restaurants with out-of-line potions would ________ .

A. put diners off. B. increase in profit

C. attract more customers D. lead to over-portioning or waste
