The cost of not training
Training is not a cost. It's an investment. It really doesn't matter that what we pay for an investment. What is relevant is what we get in return. One of the easiest
34. ways is to put an organisation's future at risk would be to view training primarily as a
35. cost, and therefore provide with substandard training that operates only as a
36. temporary solution. Many companies attempt to quantify the results of training. For
37. example, a person paid $50,000 a year who wastes just one hour a day costs the
38. organisation between $6,250 per year. So if the organisation sends 25 people for
39. training and they all receive the same benefit, this would equal from $156,250
40. savings per year. A few years ago, training, apart from showing employees
41. what the basics of doing the job, was an optional extra for most organisations.
42. Today this is no longer the case. If we, continue doing what we do in the same way,
43. most of us and our organisations will become obsolete within the five years. This is
44. because of our competitors are helping their staff to become more effective through
45. training. They understand that if the real price of not training is the company falling behind as a result.

听力原文:M: Good afternoon, is there anything I can help you with?
W: Yes. I've just checked my bank account and found that my spending in this semester has far exceeded what I planned.
M: How far exactly?
W: The rest of my money isn't enough for the trip home.
M: The cost of living in Britain is a little higher than in other countries and many foreign students meet this problem every year. Some schools set up a special office to help those in financial trouble.
W: What shall I do now?
M: First, you have to control your spending. Do not buy things you have no immediate use for. Also, reduce your spending on entertainment and rent a cheaper room if your current room is a little expensive.
W: Well, What I spend is usually necessary and cannot be reduced much. My room is a little ex- pensive, but it's close to the school and can save a great deal on transportation.
M: De you travel a lot? Traveling usually costs a lot of money.
W: Yes, I do. I went to many places because I wanted to see different people and-experience various cultures.
M: Control your spending on traveling. As well as by reducing your overall spending, you can earn some money by taking a part-time job.
W: Is there any limitation on taking a part-time job?
M: Yes. The total time spent on a part-time job should not exceed 20 hours a week. Otherwise your study would be affected.

Having been through the same experience myself several times, I have my own four main rules to follow. They have helped me ,and they can help you ,too:
Ⅰ. Show your future employers what you can do for them. What do you bring that's unique? To paraphrase President Kennedy: Ask not what your employer can de for you, but what you can do for your employer. Don't tell the person interviewing you what's on your resume(简历) , which they have already read. Tell them instead how you are going to do this job better than anyone else would ;make them think about how good the boss who hired you will look. In other words, sell your advantages, not your features. You do that by talking about your knowledge and your skills--the experience and contacts you have developed in your field and the abilities you have developed over your career.
Ⅱ. Maintain an open attitude. Openness is the quality that is essential in virtually every, kind of social and business talk if you are to be successful. Don't be so businesslike in your behaviour. Communicate your enthusiasm for the job. This is a refreshing characteristic that employers don't always find in job interviews, and the applicant who displays it sometimes will find out later it was the one quality that made a difference.
Ⅲ. Be prepared. Go over the key points you want to make about yourself. Even write them down on a yellow pad and review them several times before the interview. And don't duck(躲避) the hard questions, put them down and then figure out how you are going to answer them. If you've changed jobs three times in the past seven years, expect to be asked why. And if you want to go that extra mile, put yourself through a dress rehearsal(彩排) by having someone play the role of your future employer and "interview" you. That's an extremely effective technique, one that will give you a much better shot at getting that job.
Ⅳ. Ask questions. Asking questions is how you learn, and in a job interview you definitely want to learn about the company just as much as the company wants to learn about you.
You'll never have a better opportunity to get a feel for your future company or boss. Besides, employers respect someone who displays the initiative (主动) to ask intelligent questions about the company. That shows you possess two of the most persuasive (有说服力的) qualities that we just talked about: you are prepared ,and you care.
Having experienced several job interviews, the author has reached the conclusion that you should ______.
A.tell your future employer your unique abilities, have an open attitude, be well prepared and ask questions
B.purposely show yourself off, have an open attitude, be prepared, ask tough questions
C.tell your future employer your unique abilities, be careful about your outer appearance, prepare and ask tough questions
D.sell your features, be prepared, have an open attitude and ask questions

A.there has been a decrease in the number of jobs advertised
B.there has been an increase in the number of "qualified" job hunters
C.jobs are becoming much more complicated nowadays
D.the other processes of applying for jobs are more complicated

A.loves one's work too much
B.has to de a very difficult job

PART 4
Read the text and questions below. For each question, mark the letter next to the correct answer —A, B, C or D —on your answer sheet.
The shoemaker
Bill Bird is a shoemaker who cannot make shoes fast enough for his growing number of customers — and he charges more than £300 for a pair! Customers travel hundreds of kilometres to his London shoe clinic or to his workshop in the countryside to have their feet measured. He makes shoes for people with feet of unusual sizes: very large, very small, very broad or very narrow. The shoes are at least as fashionable as those found in ordinary shops.
Mr Bird says: 'My problem is that I cannot find skilled workers. Young people all seem to prefer to work with computers these days. We will lose the necessary skills soon because there are fewer and fewer shoemakers nowadays. I am 45, and now I want to teach young people everything I know about making shoes. It's a good job, and a lot of people want to buy beautiful shoes specially made for them.'
He started in the business 19 years ago and now he employs three other people. His customers pay about £500 for their first pair of shoes. He says: 'Our customers come because they want comfortable shoes which are exactly the right size.' Extra pairs of shoes cost between£320 and £450, as it takes one employee a whole week to make just one shoe.
What is the writer trying to de in the text?
A.describe where Mr Bird finds his staff
B.encourage people to wear comfortable shoes
C.advertise a job selling expensive shoes
D.show Mr Bird's worries about his trade
