13、on for the past several decades, the phenomenon has recently expanded to extraordinary lengths. Anything to get an extra dollar out of donors is fair game. I know colleges and universities sorely need to raise funds in these times of fiscal constraints , but things have gotten a bit out of hand. Uni
14、versities and colleges have long been named after donors-think of Harvard, Yale, Brown, and many others. John Harvard would hardly get a bench named after him today, given the modesty of his gift of books for the library back in the seventeenth century. Now it takes much more to get one“s name on a
15、college. One institution, Rowan University of New Jersey, changed its name (from Glassboro State College) not long ago when a large donation was made. Buildings, too, have been affected. Traditionally, they were named after people such as distinguished scholars or visionary academic leaders; now the
16、y“re often named after big donors. Why is all of this happening now? The main motivation for the naming frenzy is, of course, to raise money. Donors love to see their names, or the names of their parents or other relatives, on buildings, schools, institutions, professorships, and the like. Increasin
17、gly, corporations and other businesses also seek to benefit from having their names on educational facilities. Today, no limits seem to exist on what can be named. If something does not have a name, it is up for grabsa staircase, a pond, or a parking garage. Once all the major facilities have titles
18、, lesser things go on the naming auction block. Colleges and universities, public and private, are all under increased pressure to raise money, and naming brings in cash. It is unproductive. Separate branding weakens the focus and mission of an institution and perhaps even its broader reputation. It
19、 confuses the public, including potential students, and feeds the idea that the twenty-first-century university is simply a confederation of independent entrepreneurial domains. The trends we see now in the United States, and perhaps tomorrow in other countries, will inevitably weaken the concept of
20、 the university as an institution that is devoted to the search for truth and the transmission of knowledge. All this naming distracts from the mission of an institution that has almost a millennium of history and cheapens its image. It is a sad symbol indeed of the commercialization and entrepreneu

But these friendly hostelries can be minefields of potential gaffes
28、 for the uninitiated. An anthropologist and a team of researchers have 1 some of the arcane rituals of British pubsstarting with the 2 of getting a drink. Most pubs have no waitersyou 3 to go to the bar to buy drinks. A group of Italian youths 4 for 45 minutes before they realized they would have to
29、 5 for their own. This may sound inconvenient, but there is a 6 purpose. Pub culture is designed to 7 sociability in a society known for its reserve. Standing at the 8 for service allows you to chat with others 9 to be served. The bar counter is possibly the only 10 in the British Isles in which fri
30、endly conversation with 11 is considered entirely appropriate and really quite normal 12 . “If you haven“t been to a pub, you 13 been to Britain.“ This tip can be found in a 14 , Passport to the Pub: The Tourists“ Guide to Pub Etiquette, a 15 code of conduct for those wanting to sample “a central pa
31、rt of 16 life and culture“. The trouble is that if you do not 17 the local rules, the experience may fall flat. For 18 , if you are in a big group, it is best if only one 19 two people go to buy the drinks. Nothing irritates the 20 customers and bar staff more than a gang of strangers blocking all a
32、ccess to the bar while they chat and dither about what to order.（分数：36.00）七、 Writing(总题数：1，分数：-1.00)21.Read the following English passage and then write a Chinese summary of approximately 300 words that expresses its main ideas and basic information. Deceptively small in column inches, a recent New
33、York Times article holds large meaning for us in business. The item concerned one Daniel Provenzano, 38, of Upper Saddle River, N.J. Here is the relevant portion: When he owned a Fort Lee printing company called Advice Inc., Mr. Provenzano said he found out that a sales representative he employed ha
34、d stolen $9,000. Mr. Provenzano said he told the man that “if he wanted to keep his employment, I would have to break his thumb.“ He said another Advice employee drove the sales representative to Holy Name Hospital in Teaneck, broke the thumb with a hammer outside the hospital, and then had a car se
35、rvice take the man home after the thumb was repaired. Mr. Provenzano explained that he “didn“t want to set an example“ that workers could get away with stealing. The worker eventually paid back $4,500 and kept his job, he said. I know that you“re thinking: This is an outrage. I, too, was shocked tha
36、t Provenzano was being prosecuted for his astute management. Indeed, I think his “modest proposal“ has a lot to teach managers as they struggle with the problems of our people-centered business environment. Problems such as Dealing with the bottom 10%. GE made the system famous, but plenty of compan
37、ies are using it: Every year you get rid of the worst-evaluated workers. Many managers object that this practice is inhumane, but not dealing with that bottom 10% leads to big performance problems. Provenzano found a kinder, gentler answer. After all, this employee would have been fired virtually an
38、ywhere else. But at Advice Inc., he stayed on the job. And you know what? I bet he became a very, veryveryproductive employee. For most managers Provenzano“s innovative response will be a welcome new addition to their executive tool kit. And by the way, “executive tool kit“ is clearly more than just
39、 a metaphor at Advice Inc. Being the employer of choice. With top talent scarce everywhere, most companies now want to be their industry“s or their community“s most desirable employer. Advice Inc. understood. The employee in question wasn“t simply disciplined in his supervisor“s office and sent home
40、. No, that“s how an ordinary employer would have done it. But at Advice Inc., another employeethe HR manager, perhaps? took time out his busy day and drove the guy right to the emergency room. And thenthe detail that says it allthe company provided a car service to drive the employee home. The messa
41、ge to talented job candidates comes through loud and clear: Advice Inc. is a company that cares. Setting an example to others. An eternal problem for managers is how to let all employees know what happens to those who perform especially well or badly. A few companies actually post everyone“s salary
42、and bonus on their intranet. But pay is so one-dimensional. At Advice Inc., a problem that would hardly be mentioned at most companiesembezzlement was undoubtedly the topic of rich discussions for weeks, at least until the employee“s cast came off. Any employee theft probably went way, waywaydown. W
43、hen the great Roberto Goizueta was CEO of Coca-Cola he used to talk about this problem of setting examples and once observed, “Sometimes you must have an execution in the public square!“ But of course he was speaking only figuratively. If he had just listened to his own words, Goizueta might have be
44、en an even better CEO. Differentiation. This is one of Jack Welch“ s favorite conceptsthe idea that managers should treat different employees very differently based on performance. Welch liked to differentiate with salary, bonus, and stock options, but now, in what must henceforth be known as the po
45、st-Provenzano management era, we can see that GE“s great management thinker just wasn“t thinking big enough. This Times article is tantalizing and frustrating. In just a few sentences it opens a whole new world of management, yet much more surely remains to be told. We must all urge Provenzano to wr
