I'll start my new job in 2 weeks. My human resources manager wants to conduct an interview with me before I leave. Woman: Ah, an exit interview. Are you looking forward to it? Man: I'm not sure how I feel about it. I resigned because I've been unhappy at that company for a long time, but I'm not sure if I should tell them how I really feel. Woman: To my way of thinking, there are two main potential benefits that come from unleashing and agitated stream of truth during an exit interview. The first is release. Unburdening yourself of frustration, and perhaps even anger to someone who isn't a friend or close colleague can be wonderfully free. Man: Let me guess. The second is that the criticism will, theoretically, help the organization I'm leaving to improve, making sure employees of the future are less likely to encounter what I did? Woman: That's right. But the problem with the company improvement part is that very often it doesn't happen. An exit interview is supposed to be private, but often isn't. In my company, the information gained from these interviews is often not confidential. (2) The information is used as dirt against another manager, or can be traded among senior managers. Man: Now you've got me rethinking what I'll disclose in the interview. (3) There is always a chance that it could affect my reputation

and my ability to network in the industry. It is a pretty small industry after all. Woman: Anything you initially gained from the instant satisfaction of telling it like it is, you might lose down the track by injuring your future career prospects. Man: Right. (4) Perhaps I would be better getting things off my chest by going to one of those rate-your-employer websites. Woman: You could. And don't do the interview at all. Exit interviews are not mandatory. Q1: What do we learn about the man from the conversation? A) He will tell the management how he really feels. B)He will meet his new manager in two weeks. C) He is going to attend a job interview. D) He is going to leave his present job. Q2: What does the woman think of the information gained from an exit interview? A) It should be kept private. B) It should be carefully analyzed. C) It can be quite useful to senior managers. D)It can improve interviewees' job prospects. Q3: Why does the man want to rethink what he will say in the coming exit interview? A)It may leave a negative impression on the interviewer. B)It may adversely affect his future career prospects. C)It may displease his immediate superiors. D) It may do harm to his fellow employees. Q4: What does the man think he had better do?

A)Prepare a comprehensive exit report. B)Do some practice for the exit interview. C)Network with his close friends to find a better employer. D)Pour out his frustrations on a rate-your-employer website. Conversation Two Man: Today, I’m talking to the renowned botanist, Jane Foster. Woman: Thank you for inviting me to join you on the show, Henry. Man: Recently, Jane, you’ve become quite a celebrity, (5) since the release of your latest documentary. Can you tell us a little about it? Woman: Well, it follows my expedition to study the vegetation indigenous to the rain forest in equatorial areas of southeast Asia. Man: You certainly get to travel to some very exotic locations. Woman: It was far from glamorous, to be honest. The area we visited was accessible only by canoe and the living conditions in the hut were primitive to say the least. (6) There was no electricity. Our water supply was a nearby stream. Man: How were the weather conditions while you were there? Woman: The weather was not conducive to our work at all, since the humidity was almost unbearable. At midday, we stayed in the hut and did nothing. (6) It was too humid to either work or sleep. Man: How long did your team spend in the jungle? Woman: Originally, we planned to be there for a month. But in the end, we stayed for only 2 weeks. Man: Why did you cut the expedition short? Woman: Halfway through the trip, (7) we received news that a hurricane was approaching. We had to evacuate on very short notice. Man: That sounds like a fascinating anecdote. Woman: It was frightening. The fastest evacuation route was through river Rapids. We had to navigate them carrying all of our equipment.

Man: (8) So overall was the journey unsuccessful? Woman: (8) Absolutely not. We gathered a massive amount of data about the local plant life. Man: Why do you put up with such adverse conditions? Woman: Botany is an obsession for me. Many of the destinations I visit have a stunning scenery. I get to meet a variety of people from all over the world. Man: So where will your next destination be? Woman: I haven't decided yet. Man: Then we can leave it for another vacation. Thanks. Questions 5 to 8 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

A) Her unsuccessful journey B)Her month-long expedition C)Her latest documentary D)Her career as a botanist Q6: Why does the woman describe her experience as far from glamorous?

A) It was memorable B)It was unbearable C) It was uneventful D) It was fruitful Passage One Scientists often use specialized jargon terms while communicating with laymen. (9) Most of them don't realize the harmful effects of this practice. In a new study, people exposed to jargon when reading about subjects like autonomous vehicles and surgical robots. Later said they were less interesting in science than others who read about the same topics, but without the use of specialized terms. They also felt less informed about science and less qualified to discuss science topics. It's noteworthy that it made no difference if the jargon terms were defined in the text. Even when the terms were defined, readers still felt the same lack of engagement as readers who read jargon that wasn't explained. The problem is that the mere presence of jargon sends a discouraging message to readers. Hillary Schulman, the author of the study, asserts that specialized words are a signal. Jargon tells people that the message isn't for them. There's an even darker side to how people react to jargon. (10) In another study, researchers found that reading scientific articles containing jargon led people to doubt the actual science. They found the opposite, when a text is easier to read. Then. People are more persuaded. Thus, it's important to communicate clearly when talking about complex science subjects. This is especially true with issues related to public health, like the safety of new medications and the benefits of vaccines. （11）Schulman concedes that the use of jargon is appropriate with scientific audiences. But scientists who want to communicate with the general public need to modify their language. They need to eliminate jargon.

Questions nine to eleven are based on the passage you have just heard. Q 9: What does the passage say about the use of jargon terms by experts? A) It diminishes laymen's interest in science B) It ensures the accuracy of their arguments C) It makes their expressions more explicit. D) It hurts laymen's dignity and self-esteem. Q10: What do researchers find about people reading scientific articles containing jargon terms? A) They can learn to communicate with scientists B)They tend to disbelieve the actual science C)They feel great respect towards scientists D)They will see the complexity of science Q11: What does Schulman suggest scientists do when communicating with the general public? A) Find appropriate topics B)Stimulate their interest C) Explain all the jargon terms D)Do away with jargon terms Passage Two At the beginning of the twentieth century, on the Gulf coast in the US state of Texas, there was a hill where gas leakage was so noticeable that schoolboys would sometimes set the hill on fire. (12) Patio Higgins, a disreputable local businessman, became convinced that there was oil below the gassy hill. Oil wells weren't drilled back then. They were

essentially dug. (13) The sand under the hill defeated several attempts by Higgins’ workers to make a proper hole. Higgins had forecast oil at 1000 feet, a totally made-up figure. Higgins subsequently hired a mining engineer, captain Anthony Lucas. (14) After encountering several setbacks, captain Lucas decided to use a drill, and his innovations created the modern oil drilling industry. In January 1901, at 1020 feet, almost precisely the depth predicted by Higgins Wild Gas, the well-roared and suddenly ejected mud and six tons of drilling pipe out of the ground, terrifying those present. For the next nine days until the well was capped, the well poured out more oil than all the wells in America combined. In those days, Texas was almost entirely rural, with no large cities and practically no industry. Cotton and beef were the foundation of the economy. (15) Higgins’ well changed that. The boom made some prospectors millionaires, but the sudden surplus of petroleum was not entirely a blessing for Taxes. In the 1930s, prices crashed to the point that in some parts of the country, oil was cheaper than water. That would become a familiar pattern of the boom or bust Texas economy. Q12: What did Texas businessmen Patio Higgins believe? A) The local gassy hill might start a huge fire B) There was oil leakage along the Gulf Coast C) The erupting gas might endanger local children D) There were oil deposits below a local gassy hill Q13: What prevented Higgins’ workers from digging a proper hole to get the oil? A) The massive gas underground B)Their lack of the needed skill C)The sand under the hill D)Their lack of suitable tools Q14: What does the passage say about Captain Lucas' drilling method?

A) It rendered many oil workers jobless B)It was not as effective as he claimed C) It gave birth to the oil drilling industry D)It was not popularized until years later Q15: What do we learn about Texas's oil industry boom? A)It radically transformed the state's economy B) It resulted in an oil surplus all over the world C) It totally destroyed the state's rural landscape D)It ruined the state's cotton and beef industries Recording One Most people dislike their jobs. It's an astonishing but statistical fact, [16] a primary cause of employed dissatisfaction, according to fresh research, is that many believe they have terrible managers. Few describe their managers as malicious or manipulative, though, while those types certainly exist, they are minority. The majority of managers seemingly just don't know any better. They're often emulating bad managers they've had in the past, is likely they've never read a management book or attended a management course. They might not have even reflected on what good management looks like and how it would influence their own management style. The researchers interviewed employees about their managers. Beginning with a question about the worst manager they had ever had. From this, the researchers came up with four main causes of why some managers are perceived as being simply awful at their jobs. [17]The first cause was company culture, which was seen by employees as enabling poor management practices. It was specifically stressful work environments, minimal training, and a lack of accountability that were found to be the most blame worthy. Often a manager superiors can effectively encourage a manager's distasteful behavior when they fail to discipline the persons wrong doings. Such workplaces are sometimes described as toxic. The
