11、数：0，分数：0.00)四、Text 1(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Violent criminals with something to hide have more reason than ever to be paranoid about a tap on the shoulder which could send them to jail. Queensland police are working through a backlog of unsolved murders with some dramatic success. Greater cooperation betwee

12、n the public and various law enforcement agencies is playing a role, but new genetic-testing techniques are the real key to providing the vital evidence to mount a prosecution.Evidence left behind at the scene of any murder is guaranteed to outlive the person who left it. A blood, saliva or tissue s

13、ample in the size of a pin, kept dry and out of sunlight, will last several thousand years. From it, scientific analysis now can tell accurately the sex of the person who left it.When matched against a sample from a crime suspect, it can indicate with million-to-one certainty whether the samples com

14、e from the same source. Only twins share identical DNA. So precise is the technology if the biological parents of a suspect agree to provide a sample, forensic scientists can work out the rest for themselves without cooperation from the suspect.Queensland forensic scientists have been using the DNA

15、testing technology since 1992, and last year they were recognized internationally for their competence in positive individual identification. That is part of the reason 20 of Queenslands most puzzling unsolved murders dating to 1932 are being ac timely investigated. There also have been several rece

16、nt arrests for unsolved murders.Forensic evidence was instrumental in charges being laid over the bashing death of waitress Tasha Douty on Brampton Island in 1983. Doutys blood-splattered, naked body was found on a nude sunbathing beach at Dinghy Bay on the island. Footprints in the sand indicated t

17、hat the killer had grappled with the 21-year-old mother who had fled up the beach before being caught and beaten to death.According to Leo Freney, the supervising forensic scientist at the John Tonge Centre at Brisbanes Griffith University, DNA testing has become an invaluable tool for police, its u

18、se is in identifying and rejecting suspects. In fact, he says, it eliminates more people than it convicts.“ It is easily as good as fingerprints for the purpose of identification, “ he says. “In the case of violent crime it is better than fingerprints. You cant innocently explain things like blood a

19、nd semen at a crime scene where you may be able to innocently explain fingerprints. “ In Queensland, a person who has been arrested on suspicion of an offence can be taken before a magistrate and ordered to provide a sample of body fluid by :force if necessary.（分数：10.00）(1).What is implied in the fi

20、rst sentence of Paragraph 1 ?A Law punishments are always slow.B Justice has long arms.C Everyone is equal before the law.D A burnt child dreads the fire.（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).In Queensland, dramatic progress made in investigating unresolved murders is because of_.A the greater cooperation between su

21、spects and policeB the simplification of the criminal prosecution processC forensic scientists ability in positive individual identificationD new techniques in finding footprints of murders（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(3).Evidence left behind at the scene of a crime is all of the following EXCEPT_.A blood B tis

22、sue C footprints D pin（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(4).What can be inferred from the text?A Criminal evidence could be kept well in dry and warm places.B The high accuracy of genetic testing lies in DNAs uniqueness.C DNA testing provides the vital evidence in Tasha Douty Case.D Fingerprints are better than DNA

23、to convict suspects.（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(5).By the use of new technology, forensic scientists can_.A work out the result of DNA completely by themselvesB eliminate more suspects than identify themC tell the appearance of a murder from the evidence leftD order the suspect to provide a sample of body flu

24、id by law（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.五、Text 2(总题数：1，分数：10.00)New graduates in America are used to facing an uncertain future while saddled with heavy debts. Now Sallie Mae, the firm that provides many of them with the financial wherewithal to complete their education, will understand how they feel. On Monday A

25、pril 16th it was announced that two private-equity firms along with two banks, JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America, had agreed to pay $25 billion for Americas leading student-loan provider.In the past decade the market for student loans has doubled to around $85 billion a year. Student numbers have s

26、welled while incomes have failed to keep pace with the soaring cost of college education. Sallie Mae has over a quarter of the entire business in America. And though margins are wafer-thin the firm made a profit of $1.2 billion last year.This profitability has attracted the interest of both Democrat

27、ic and Republican lawmakers, seeking ways to save money while making education more affordable. Particularly vulnerable is the proportion doled out to big and profitable private companies like Sallie Mae to subsidise affordable government-backed loans. These now account for around 85% of its lending

28、.Sallie Maes profits and healthy cash-flow are a draw for private equity. And the involvement of the two banks could prove useful for plugging any gap in financing, if the firms credit rating slips following the assumption of so much debt. It helps that Sallie Mae is also making money beyond its cor

29、e business. The market for private loans, without government subsidies or guarantees, is growing fast as the cost of education grows while the size of federal loans that students can take out has remained flat. This sort of loan is nicely profitable because lenders can levy high interest rates. New

30、graduates are also targets: Sallie Mae has built a big debt-collection arm for reluctant repayers and a college-fund business for fast breeders.Even the renewed interest from politicians could play into Sallie Maes hands. The lure of profits over the past decade has drawn more lenders into the busin

31、ess. Any future regulations or legislation that might shave profit margins further could deter new entrants or force smaller lenders out of the business, and Sallie Mae may get more opportunities to offset the reduction. But despite all the safeguards, students are high risk borrowers who quickly am

32、ass big debts. Sallie Mae, like many of the students it serves, could wake up one day with a nasty hangover (拖欠) and little recollection about how it came about.（分数：10.00）(1).The example of Sallie Mae Company is used by the author to _A express the current situation of student-loan.B describe the ba

33、nking industry of the U.S.C show problems in politics.D talk about the environment of education in the U.S（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The profit of Sallie Mae is considerable although the margins are wafer-thin because _A the company has used illegal methods to raise money.B the cost of college education h

34、as increased faster than the average income.C the government has issued policies to increase the profit in the industry.D students are safe borrowers who can repay the loan immediately.（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(3).According to the text, the goal of the US government on education cost is _A to earn more mone

35、y.B to enable more students to study in college at a lower government cost.C to reduce the interest rate of student-loan.D to establish more colleges.（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(4).If a student is reluctant to pay back the loan, Sallie Mae most probably _A have no idea to deal with the case.B ask the army to

36、solve the problem.C use its strong system to urge for return.D no longer lend money to students.（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(5).From the last two paragraphs, we learn that _A If the margin of profit in student-loan is lessened, no company will be involved in the industry.B If the margin of profit in student-lo

37、an is lessened, Sallie Mae will be bankrupt.C If the margin of profit in student-loan is lessened, Sallie Mae can get more opportunities.D If the margin of profit in student-loan is lessened, the industry will be definitely safe.（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.六、Text 3(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Ask any employee at an level i

38、n any company what they dislike about their job and somewhere on the list you will find a complaint about the system of performance appraisals. It does seem strange that an idea which was supposed to benefit both individuals and the company should be so universally disliked, but the staff appraisal

39、is now one of the biggest causes of dissatisfaction at work. In the United States there have even been cases of unhappy workers taking their employers to court over appraisal interviews. It is in a companys interest to combat this situation, but, before reversing the appraisals negative associations

40、, an organization needs to pinpoint the underlying reasons which have contributed to them.Problems with appraisals can fall into two main areas-those arising from the scheme itself and those arising from the implementation and understanding of that scheme. Naturally it is easier to tackle those in t

41、he former category; indeed, some companies have developed schemes following legal guidelines. These guidelines suggest that a successful scheme should have a clear appeal process, that any negative feedback should be accompanied by “evidence“ such as dates, times and outcomes and that, most importan

42、tly, ratings should reflect specific measurable elements of the job requirements.It is not always necessary to resort to legal advice however. Some changes to current schemes are simply a matter of logic. For instance, if employees are constantly encouraged to work in teams and to assume joint respo

43、nsibility for their successes and failures, it makes little sense for the appraisals to focus on individuals, as this may lead to resentments and create divisions within the group. It is possible, and in some cases more suitable, to arrange appraisals where performance is rated for the group.Staff a

44、lso need to be educated about the best way to approach appraisals. Managers often find that they are uncomfortable being asked to take on a more supportive role than they are used to without having had any training. Those being appraised may see it as a chance to air their grievances and highlight t

45、he companys failings rather than consider their own role. Both parties view the process as a necessary evil, to be gone through once or twice a year, and then forgotten about. The importance given to the appraisal stems from the fact that, despite all the talk of the interview being a chance for man

46、agement and employees to come together and exchange ideas, set joint targets and improve the way decisions are reached, the reality is that they are often nothing more than the pretext on which pay rises are given, or not given. Pay is, of course, a subject that always leads to problems.Given the pr

47、oblems associated with staff appraisals, why is it that, with no legal requirement, companies continue to run them? The answer is simple, it is impossible to manage something you know nothing about. As any Human Resources manager can tell you, the best way to learn about someone is to talk to them.

48、Effective people management relies on knowledge and appraisals are still the best way to build up that bank of knowledge.（分数：10.00）(1).Why are there so many problems with appraisals?A People think that there are too many categories.B People are not sure how the system works.C People think that the feedback is too negative.D People are not happy with the legal aspects.（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).Individual appraisals are not always very effective because_.A teams much prefer to be awarded a group ratingB everybody works in teams these daysC team members share liability for result
