“The staff were dead beat” in the first paragraph means that they were______.
A. wounded
B. exhausted
C. irritable
D. forgetful
The staff 'of the dead mail offices has different ways to deal with all of these pieces of dead mail. First of all, they look for clues that can help them deliver the mail; they open packages in the hope that something inside will show where the package came from or is going to. (43) Dead mail will also be listed on a computer so that people can call in and cheek to see if a missing item is there.
However, all of the mail cannot simply be stored forever: there is just too much of it. When a lot of dead mail has piled up, the dead mail offices hold public auctions. Every three months, the public is invited to the offices and containing items found in dead mail packages are sold to the highest bidder (出价人).
Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to deal with dead mail？
A．To search for clues.
B．To throw dead mail away.
C．To open dead mail.
D．To list dead mail on a computer.

"Frum, I say. "No, your first name." "What do you need my first name for？" To write on the tag, so all the children and the staff will know what to call you. "In that case, write ' Mr. Frum.'"
At which I am shot a look as if I had asked to be called to Duke of Plaza Toro.
In encouraging five-year-olds to address grownups by their first names, PlaySpace is only slightly ahead of the times. As a journalist, I faithfully report that the custom of addressing strangers formally is as dead as the practice of leaving a visiting card. There's hardly a secretary left who does not reply, when I give a message fro her boss, "I'll tell him you called, David." Or a public relations agent, whether in Bangor or Bangkok, who does not begin his telephonic spiel (长篇大论) with a cheerful "Hello, David !"
You don't have to be a journalist to collect amazing first-name stories. Place a collect call, and the operator first-names you. The teenager behind the counter at a fast food restaurant asks a 70-year-old customer for his first name before taking his order.
Habitual first-names claim they are motivated by nothing worse than uncontrollably high-spirited friendliness. I don't believe it. If I asked the fast-food order-takers to lend me ＄ 50, their friendliness would vanish in a whoosh. The PR man drops all his cheerfulness the moment he hears I won't go along with his story idea. No, it's not friendliness that drives first-namers; it's aggression. The PR agents who call me David uninvited would never, if they could somehow get him on the phone, address press baron Rupert Murdoch that way. The woman at the bank who called me David would never first-name the bank's chairman. Like the mock-cheery staff at PlaySpace, they are engaged in a smile-faced act of belittlement, an assertion of power disguised as good cheer.
"PR" in paragraph 6 stands for ______.
A．personal request
B．personal respect
C．public relations
D．public review

However ridiculous that may be, our tramp found himself alone in the store and decided to make the best of it. There was food, drink, bedding and camping equipment, of which he made good use.

Though it was not reported if he took advantage of these facilities, when the shop reopened he was discovered in bed with a large number of empty bottles beside him. He seems to have been a man of good humor as indeed tramps very commonly are.
Everyone else was enjoying Christmas, so he saw no good reason why he should not do the same. He yielded himself cheerfully, and was taken by the police. Perhaps he had had a better Christmas than usual. He was sent to prison for seven days. Tile judge awarded no compensation (赔偿) to the chain store for the food and drink our tramp had consumed.

Woman: Thank you, Jonathan, and good morning, everyone. This year's search for the Factories of the Year has produced a bumper crop of outstanding winners, which is very welcome proof that the old economy isn't dead, but is emerging revitalised from its recent problems.
As ever, we initiated our search for the best by sending each participating factory a questionnaire. This consisted of fourteen pages and probably more questions than the recipients would have liked. From their answers, each factory was assessed on a basket of performance criteria. Some of these were immediately measurable, like handover times, which of course can have a big impact on productivity and which are showing a healthy tendency towards being shortened. Another was delivery reliability, a high score in which is essential for any customer-led organisation.
Other criteria which we considered were less tangible, but no less important for that. We took staff morale very seriously, because if it's poor it can have measurable results such as high staff turnover and a high accident rate. And if a business can't easily handle change, it may well create more problems than it solves, and its future is unlikely to be secure.
The next step was for the panel of judges to assess the results and devise a shortlist. We then visited these factories. I must say, I found it fascinating to see so many factories in action. As a result of these visits, we came up with the three winners in each category.
The factories that emerged from this process shared some familiar characteristics. Impressive people-management practices, for a start. A determination among the factory's management team not to be second best, for another. And acting on the realisation that clever initiatives don't count if they don't further a factory's mission. No successful factory can, for a moment, forget its customers, whether they're internal to the company or external.
As ever, new trends emerged: an outstanding level of competence in supply-chain management, as well as in manufacturing, is increasingly important. The links between a factory, its suppliers and its customers can make or break an operation.
This year's winners also demonstrate the importance of optimising the movement of goods and people around the factory. Confused, muddled-looking factories underperform, while successful ones use signs to help staff and visitors find the best route to their destination. And allowing goods or materials to get lost in some dusty corner of the warehouse is unacceptable: the problem of tracking components as they move through production has led to a number of developments, of which electronic tagging is one of the most exciting.
Now I'd like to turn to the individual categories...
&8226;You will hear the opening of the Factories of the Year awards ceremony.
&8226;As you listen, for questions 1-12, complete the notes, using up to three words or a number.
&8226;After you have listened once, replay the recording.
