Passage Five
When Frand Dale look over as publisher of Los Angeles Herrald-Examiner,the organization had just ended a ten-year strike. There was much bitterness and as he told us.“Everybody that I found there had lost their curiosity,they’d lost their cutting edge,there was no interest,they just hung on ... I had a real problem.”His very first task was to introduce himself to everybody,to thank them for their loyalty to that point,and to allow them to express their concerns and frustrations. To questions like“What makes you think you can make this thing go?”he responded,“I don’t know yet,but in thirty days I’ll come back to you and let you know what I’ve found.”He recruited a task force of the best people from throughout the Hearst Corporation to do a crash study,and in thirty days he had a written report on what needed to be done,which he shared with the staff. He had taken the all-important first steps to establish mutual trust,without which leadership would not have been possible.
Trust is the emotional glue that binds followers and leaders together. The accumulation of trust is a measure of the legitimacy of leadership. It cannot be demanded or purchased;it must be earned. Trust is the basic ingredient of all organizations,the lubrication that maintains the organization and it is as mysterious and difficult a concept as leadership—and as important.
One thing we can say for sure about trust is that if trust is to be generated,there must be predictability,the capacity to predict another’s behavior. Another way of putting it is to say that organizations without trust would resemble the ambiguous nightmare of Kafka’s The Castle,where nothing can be certain and nobody can be relied on or be held responsible. The ability to predict outcomes with a high probability of success generates and maintains trust.

Trust
When Frank Dale took over as publisher of Los Angeles Herrald-Examiner, the organization had just ended a ten-year strike. There was much bitterness and, as he told us, himself to everybody, to thank them for their loyalty to that point, and to allow them to express their concerns and frustrations. To questions like "What makes you think you can make this thing go ? " he responded, "I don&39;t know yet, but in thirty days I&39;ll come back to you and let you know what I&39;ve found." He recruited a task force of the best people from throughout the Hearst Corporation to do a crash study, and in thirty days he had a written report on what needed to be done, which he shared with the staff. He had taken the all-important first steps to establish mutual trust, without which leadership would not have been possible.

听力原文: In 1955, Walt Disney himself opened the first Disney Park in the USA, Los Angeles. Later Disney world was opened in Florida in 1971. It cost between $500 and $600 million to build. Tokyo Disney Park opened in Japan in 1983, and Europe Disney opened in France in 1992.
Now Hong Kong is going to build a Disney Park and it will be open in 2005. More than 80% of Hong Kong's population would like to visit the Disney Park when it is opened. The adult admission fee is between 32 to 38 American dollars. But about half of the people thought the adult admission fee was too high. The children's admission fee is not known yet. But children may not mind paying any entrance fee. "If I start saving money: now, I'll have enough money to pay the entrance fee in five years time," said Mary, a 12 years old girl, "I can't take my son to the Disney Park in the USA," said Mrs. Sally, mother of a small boy, "that's why I agree to the government's plan to build one here. Then I'll be able to take my son there. The admission fee of just under one hundred dollars is nothing compared with the price of an air ticket to the USA."

Dr. Conrad and William C. Louis presented their initial findings in a talk yesterday at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory where the experiment is being performed.
The goal was to confirm or refute observations made in the 1990s in a Los Alamos experiment that observed transformations in the evanescent but bountiful particles known as neutrinos(微中子). Neutrinos have no electrical charge and almost no mass, but there are so many of them that they could collectively outweigh all the stars in the universe.
The new experiment has attracted wide interest. That reflected in part the hope of finding cracks in the Standard Model, which encapsulates physicists' current knowledge about fundamental particles and forces.
The Standard Model has proved remarkably effective and accurate, but it cannot answer some fundamental questions, like why the universe did not completely annihilate(毁灭) itself an instant after the Big Bang.
The birth of the universe 13.7 billion years ago created equal amounts of matter and antimatter. Since matter and antimatter annihilate each other when they come in contact, that would have left nothing to coalesce into stars and galaxies. There must be some imbalance in the laws of physics that led to a slight preponderance of matter over antimatter, and that extra bit of matter formed everything in the visible universe.
The imbalance, some physicists believe, may be hiding in the dynamics of neutrinos.
Neutrinos come in three known types, or flavors. And they can change flavor as they travel. But the neutrino transformations reported in the Los Alamos data do not fit the three-flavor model, suggesting four flavors of neutrinos, if not more.
The new experiment sought to count the number of times one flavor of neutrino, called a muon(μ介子), turned into another flavor, an electron neutrino.
For most of the neutrino energy range they looked at, the scientists did not see any more electron neutrinos than would be predicted by the Standard Model. That ruled out the simplest ways of interpreting the Los Alamos neutrino data, Dr. Conrad and Dr. Louis said.
But at the lower energies, the scientists did see more electron neutrinos than predicted: 369, rather than the predicted 273. That may simply mean that some calculations are off. Or it could point to a subtler interplay of particles, known and unknown.
Dr. Louis said he was surprised by the results". I was sort of expecting a clear excess or no excess", he said. "In a sense, we got both".
It can be inferred from Paragraph 1 that the" initial findings" of Dr. Conrad and Louis are ______.
A.a new class of subatoms.
B.new subatomic particles.
C.new characters of neutrinos.
D.none of the above.
Gang Crime
Living in a large urban center often equates to living near or within the criminal epicenter, especially for inner-city dwellers where crime is most concentrated. That means that killing is an everyday occurrence, and it has been that way in Los Angeles for decades, and during the late 1980s and early 1990s the City of Los Angeles averaged 2.73 murders per day. But what can be done about the recent increase in crime and the murders taking place? Much of what I hear is pure rhetoric and posturing with very little long-term solutions.
When crime was reaching record low numbers from the mid- to late-1990s, everyone was taking credit. Hahn and his gang injunction strategy, three strikes, community policing, stricter gun laws, heavier sentencing, more prisons and grass roots organizations. Are we now experiencing a breakdown in all those institutions and policies simultaneously? Now all you hear and see is finger pointing and name blaming of others for the recent street killings. For example Mr. Hayes, an advocate in Los Angeles, believes that the black leadership in Los Angeles includes Danny Bakewell of the Brotherhood Crusade, Rev. Chip Murray of the First AME Church, and Congresswoman Maxine Waters, for creating a community of dissension that is frustrated with the establishment where race is a central issue that has resulted in minority youths lashing back Violently. Mr. Hayes brings up some excellent points regarding the selfish political agendas of these people, including Jesse Jackson who has been associated as a shakedown artist that has been successful at convincing corporations to large financial settlements for alleged racism, but Hayes' link between the recent crime spike and the selfish political agendas of so-called leaders, is poorly thought out, and flat out wrong. The Black political leadership has been operating in the same fashion since the early 1970s when Mayor Tom Bradley was in office and throughout the 1990s when crime was an insignificant political topic the Black leadership was doing the same thing. Nothing is new Mr. Hayes.
Larry Elder, radio talk show personality, has simplified this problem as a law enforcement issue. He states that having more officers will equal more arrests resulting in less crime. The LAPD is believed to have one of the smallest police forces for a large city and it has been a political hot topic for over 20 years but this issue only makes headlines when crime increases. We must not forget the results of suppression techniques that poured more officers on the streets, such as former Chief Daryl Gate's Operation Hammer where intensive gang sweeps were implemented from 1988 ~ 1990. Additionally former Chief Willie Williams attempted aggressive police strategies in 1995 and both these Chiefs drastically failed in their efforts. More police officers have never been the answer to increased crime.
In the first paragraph, the author seems to allude to ______
A.the crime occurrences in the urban center
B.the overcrowded dwelling of city people
C.the alarming rising crimes in the 1980s and 1990s
D.the lack of any effective solutions to crimes
