Please read the following short story and complete 2 tasks: 1) explaining what is the etiquette problem 2) describing the correct etiquette rules with reference to your personal life experiences if necessary. Case Study: Before their first meeting, Ryan was told by a client that theirs was a casual office and Ryan should come to meetings in business casual. Ryan believed that a suit and a tie was proper business attire and so wore a conservative suit to that first meeting. When scheduling their next meeting, which was to be attended by the division president, the client said, "Now remember, Ryan, we're a casual office -- no suit and tie this time." Inexplicably, Ryan showed up in shorts, a T-shirt, and sneakers. When the client saw him, he immediately called the president and cancelled the meeting, and graciously gave Ryan one last warning.

1. Birth of Jesus This is how the birth of Jesus Christ took place. When Mary his mother was engaged to Joseph, before they were married, she became pregnant by the Holy Spirit. Joseph her husband was a righteous man. Because he didn’t want to humiliate her, he decided to call off their engagement quietly. As he was thinking about this, an angel from the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, don’t be afraid to take Mary as your wife, because the child she carries was conceived by the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you will call him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” Now all of this took place so that what the Lord had spoken through the prophet would be fulfilled: Look! A virgin will become pregnant and give birth to a son, And they will call him, Emmanuel. (Emmanuel means “God with us.”) When Joseph woke up, he did just as an angel from God commanded and took Mary as his wife. But he didn’t have sexual relations with her until she gave birth to a son. Joseph called him Jesus. They had to travel to the city of Bethlehem to register for a census ordered by the Roman emperor, Caesar Augustus. Both Nazareth and Bethlehem are in the country now called Israel. It is about 65 miles (105 km) from Nazareth to Bethlehem, and the trip probably took them several days. When Joseph and Mary got to Bethlehem, there was no place for them to stay because the inn was already full. They ended up spending the night in a stable, a place where animals were kept. There was probably fresh hay on the floor that they used for beds. That night, Jesus was born. There was no crib, so they laid baby Jesus in a manger, a feeding trough for animals. The manger probably had fresh hay in it and made a nice bed for the baby. 2. What do you think the underlined word is in the passage?
A、A kind of animal
B、A kind of furniture
C、A kind of food
D、A kind of flavor
A、11
B、14
C、19

Farmers" Markets

Oliver Robinson,25, grew up on a farm in Yorkshire. __________ .(47) "I&39;m sure Dad hoped I&39;d stay," he said. "I guess it&39;s a nice, straightforward life, but it doesn&39;t appeal. For young,ambitious people, farm life would be a hard world." For Robinson, farming doesn&39;t offer much "in terms of money or life style". Hollins agrees that economics stops people from pursuing farming rewards: "Providing for a vital human need, while working outdoors with nature."

The home service industry in Beijing is expected to become more attractive both as a job and as an industry. Sources at the Beijing People's Political Consultative Conference said resistance to home service work is melting away from minds of the city's laidoff workers. The Conference suggested the establishment of municipal (市政的) centers which supervise property management, household mending and installation, and house keeping services. Modern city life is creating a need for home services. This will create job opportunities for laidoff workers, said vice director of the Social Judicial Committee of the Conference. Beijing residents have long desired a home service industry. The demand is expected to drive new economic growth. There are few high quality home help services in Beijing and customers are always complaining. In the past, few laidoff workers worked as home helpers, jobs largely taken by young women from the countryside. At the same time, some city residents have not felt safe trusting rural girls with modern household machines or with their small children. Many people would pay more for reliable house keepers who are more familiar with city life, but they have had no way of getting one, even though the city is home to thousands of laidoff workers. By the end of June this year, there were 30,600 jobless workers in the city. Most of them are women in their 40's, who are not blessed with particular skills and who have had their work ethics shaped by the planned economy. Many of them were at a loss when they first realized they had lost their jobs and a way of life they had got used to for decades. They never imagined being laidoff by state; they never considered other kinds of employment. For them, the private sector (领域) meant taking risks; housekeeping implied lower social status. Gao yunfang, 44, is a pioneer who is breaking the ice. She sells the Beijing Morning Post in the morning, and works at two households in the afternoon. She earns 1,000 yuan per month. So she no longer worries about her daughter's tuition at a university in Shanghai. 1. What is talked about in the passage? A. Home service. B. Modern city life. C. Laidoff workers. D. Social status. 2. Why didn't the laidoff workers like to do home services in the past? A. Low salary. B. Lower social status. C. Dirty working condition. D. Too much extra work. 3. Why were many laidoff workers at a loss? A. Because they didn't get used to the new way of life. B. Because they are too old to find a new job. C. Because they dislike being laid off. D. Because they think they lost their social status. 3. In which ways is home service industry good for our society? A. It meets the needs of modern life. B. It provides work opportunities for the laidoff worker C. It is a new industry. D. A and B. |
Since the 1980s, experts have been claiming that the skill demands of today’s jobs have outstripped the skills workers possess. Moss and Tilly counter that worker deficiencies lie less in job-specific skills than in such attributes as motivation, interpersonal skills, and appropriate work demeanor. However, Handel suggests that these perceived deficiencies are merely an age effect, arguing that workers pass through a phase of early adulthood characterized by weak attachment to their jobs. As they mature, workers grow out of casual work attitudes and adjust to the workplace norms of jobs that they are more interested in retaining. Significantly, complaints regarding younger workers have persisted for over two decades, but similar complaints regarding older workers have not grown as the earlier cohorts aged. The last sentence serves primarily to
A、suggest that worker deficiencies are likely to become more pronounced in the future
B、introduce facts that Handel may have failed to take into account
C、cite evidence supporting Handel’s argument about workers
D、show that the worker deficiencies cited by Handel are more than an age effect
E、distinguish certain skills more commonly possessed by young workers from skills more commonly found among mature workers
