You have probably seen ads (广告) in newspaper or on television for mail-order companies. Perhaps a catalogue (商品目录) has been sent to you. Why do people buy things they have not seen in person? Some people believe that things can be bought more cheaply by mail. Another good thing about buying by mail is that it is easier and more enjoyable to sit at home and work through a catalogue than to shop around the stores. With a catalogue from a large company, you have your own shop window for almost everything you want to buy.
Buying from a catalogue is so easy. It saves the shopper's time and trouble. Sometimes, it saves the shopper's money, too. But people often buy more than they can really afford(付得起) or need, because many things look so good to them. They can probably pay a certain part of the full price—a down payment. Then they pay a certain amount of money every month until the goods is paid for in full. But by then they often find what they have bought are of no use at all.
Why do people buy things without seeing them in person?
A.To enjoy themselves.
B.To save money and trouble.
C.To get more than they need.

In August 2010 HomeDeliver decided to replace the physical ordering system with a new electronic ordering system. Agents would be provided with software which would allow them to enter customer orders directly into the computer system using their home personal computer at the end of each day. Payments would also be paid directly into a HomeDeliver bank account by agents at the end of each day.
The software to support the new ordering system was developed in-house to requirements provided by the current order entry administrators at HomeDeliver and managers concerned with order fulfilment and invoicing. The software was tested internally by the order entry administrators. At first, both the specification of requirements and initial software testing progressed very slowly because order administrators were continuing with their normal operational duties. However, as project delays became more significant, selected order administrators were seconded to the project full-time. As a result the software was fully acceptance tested by the end of July 2011, two months behind schedule.
In August 2011 the software was rolled out to all supervisors and agents. The software was claimed to be easy to use, so no formal training was given. A large comprehensive manual with colour screenshots was attached as a PDF to an email sent to all supervisors and agents. This gave detailed instructions on how to set up and use the software.
Unfortunately, problems began to appear as soon as the agents tried to load and use the software. It was found to be incompatible with one particular popular browser, and agents whose computers used that browser were advised to use an alternative browser or computer. Agents also criticised the functionality of the software because it did not allow for the amendment of orders once they had been submitted. It emerged that customers often contacted agents and supervisors to amend their order prior to it being sent to HomeDeliver. This was no longer possible with the new system. Many agents also claimed that it was not possible to enter multiple orders for one household. However, HomeDeliver confirmed that entering multiple orders was possible; it was just not clear from the software, or from the instructions provided, how this could be achieved.
Most of the agents were reluctant to print off the manual (preferring to read it on screen) and a significant number claimed that they did not receive the email with the manual attachment. Agents also found quite a number of spelling and functionality errors in the manual. At certain points the software did not perform. in the way the manual stated that it would.
Internal standards at HomeDeliver require both a post-project and a post-implementation review.
Required:
(a) Explain the purpose of each of the following: a post-project review, a post-implementation review and a benefits realisation review. (6 marks)
(b) Evaluate the problems and the lessons that should be learned from a post-project review and a post-implementation review of the electronic ordering system at HomeDeliver. (12 marks)
(c) HomeDeliver does not have a benefits management process and so a benefits realisation review is inappropriate. However, it does feel that it would be useful to retrospectively define the benefits to HomeDeliver of the new electronic ordering system.
Identify and discuss the potential benefits to HomeDeliver of the new electronic ordering system. (7 marks)

In this crisis(危机) I think I may be pardoned if I do not address the House at any length today, and I hope that any of my friends and colleagues or former colleagues who are affected by the political reconstruction will make all allowances for any lack of ceremony (礼仪)with which it has been necessary to act.
I say to the House as I said to Ministers who have joined this government, I have nothing to offer but blood, toil(辛苦), sweat and tears. We have before us an ordeal(考验) of the most grievous (极大的)kind. We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering.
You ask, what is our policy? I say is to wage (开展)war by land, sea and air. War with all our might and with all the strength God has given us, and to wage war against a monstrous tyranny(残暴) never surpassed (超越)in the dark and lamentable (可恶的)catalogue of human crime. That is our policy.
You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs--victory in spite of all terrors--victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.
Let that be realized. No survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that the British Empire has stood for, no survival for the urge, the impulse (动力)of the ages, that mankind shall move forward toward his goal.
I take up my task in buoyancy(快乐) and hope. I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men.
I feel entitled(有权利的)at this juncture, at this time, to claim the aid of all and to say, "come then, let us go forward together with our united strength".
The first paragraph tells mainly about ______.
A.the crisis
B.the political reconstruction
C.lack of ceremony
D.all allowances
