I mean its never been easy with all of us spread out

30、over the city. And then there is the difference in phone lines. Half the time when Im answering calls they come to the wrong branch. Then thats the students. I mean half of them have never been in the city, or even this country before. Its no wonder they are late. They dont know how to find their wa

31、y round. But this way when all the changes were over and weve settled down in the new building, well be easier to get to. So I reckon they will get there more promptly and they wont have any excuse any more for coming in late or missing lectures. Speaker 2 Woman: I think it all depends where you are

32、 sitting, where you are looking from. Overall, Im convinced that it will work out well. Its the right decision. Id have done the same thing. Im really convinced a large number of students are going to be delighted. They will see the benefits immediately. OK, yes, I am anticipating some complaints. W

33、ith our people of this nature I think thats inevitable. But the majority will welcome it. Ive explained it to all my lecturers. They understand it, accept it. It also means I can organise the timetables better, so they will do their teaching over a shorter day. So thats obviously a benefit. Im sure

34、the rest of the staff will feel the same. Speaker 3 Man: In the early days I had to take premises all over the place, anywhere I could get them just to get the business off the ground. But over the years Ive always looked for the opportunity to get everyone together on one site. When all this is ove

35、r, we look better and we will perform better. I know it means that we are going to attract more businesses. And another thing, we suppose to keep all the records on the data-base, but half the time the various PCs arent working or the network is down or something. That can surely only get better. Pe

36、rsonally, I cant wait. Speaker 4 Woman: I cant say I really understand why they are doing it. I mean its all the building, all the equipment. You know, it seems so organised, as it is. Its got to be money, hasnt it? Thats where we are always here in the lectures, keep costs under control. Of course,

37、 lots of us are late for class sometimes. And I know thats bad, and embarrassing. Walking in when everyone else was already in their place and its all started ages ago. But I do think its a bit worrying, that will surely mean some of us are going to lose out. I mean they wouldnt be doing this if the

38、y didnt reckon I could save some salaries, would they? Speaker 5 Man: I wish them luck. Thats the main thing I say. I think they are a national organisation, very well-run. The students are always happy, more than satisfying. I just think its beyond my imagination what you will have to do. I mean yo

39、u think of all the different branches, all the things, all the procedures. Can you imagine what all the changing will involve? Anyway, I suppose the bottom line is as long as they keep their external relations as efficient as they have always been. There is no problem. At the end of the day Ive won

40、my percentage. Its up to them to sort out the move. 13 【正确答案】 E 14 【正确答案】 B 15 【正确答案】 F 16 【正确答案】 D 17 【正确答案】 G 18 【正确答案】 D 19 【正确答案】 E 20 【正确答案】 G 21 【正确答案】 B 22 【正确答案】 H 三、 PART THREE 22 【听力原文】 You will hear a radio programme on the subject of innovation, research and development in business.

42、sly a scientist with HMK engineering and now head of Research and Development at the London Business Centre. The ability to turn ideas into products, then bring them to the marketplace, is a process which draws on a wide range of business skills. But behind this are the skills of the innovators. The

43、se are the people who must take an idea, although not necessarily their own, and turn it into a product which is going to satisfy market need. Alan, can we first look at the innovation in organisations? Man: Mm? Woman: How important is it? Man: Vital. Changes are all around. If we dont change, other

44、 people will, our competitors both here and abroad. Innovation also reduces costs by making better use of raw materials, which is very important in the current economic climate, and can reduce pollution. For many, innovation is the heart of surviving in the future. Woman: Could you outline some of t

45、he main types of innovation in organisations? Man: Well, there are a few main types, I suppose. There are the modification of the existing products to make them a little better. There are the technology-based projects where people are looking for breakthroughs and setting goals: and their problem is

46、 finding the right technology for this. Also we have people looking for new uses for technology. Finally, there are the ones doing exploratory research, looking for something really new, often not sure how to find it. All of these projects are all different in focus. They are expensive and they are

47、often the first thing to go from the budget when recession hits. Woman: How does management fit in? Man: If you know what you are trying to do, and this is the easiest in product modification, management can provide clear goals, resources, and above all, good leadership. If your field is the applica

48、tion of technology, you need to be given time to look customer needs. In the area of totally new technology, the key thing is for management to pick very good people, and then let them work in areas which are potentially relevant to the organisation. The clear need here is to make sure exploitable i

49、deas arent missed. Woman: Aha! Man: Id also like to stress the importance to innovation of “product champions“. Woman: “Product champions“? Man: Yes. All innovations go through difficult patches and it needs somebody senior in the organisation who has the real commitment to it, to the product and the part to push it through these difficult patches. Of course, the danger is getting too involved and not not
