Pays Back $25k to Customers after Government Investigation A) A Gold Coast-based working holiday company has agreed to pay back thousands of dollars to young travelers after a Queensland Government investigation found what it believed were some unfair terms in the company’s contracts. Twenty-nine people who had signed up for assistance on their gap-year travels are receiving partial refunds (退款) from The Global Work and Travel Co. (Global), totalling $25,655. Global arranges travel and employment packages for 10,000 young people each year, primarily in Australia, UK, USA and Canada. B) In November 2014, a joint ABC and Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) investigation discovered dozens of angry customers, who accused Global of charging big mark-ups (增高标价), using high-pressure sales tactics, and making false promises about employment. The company, however, denied misleading consumers or marking up flights and said its customer satisfaction rate was between 97.5 and 99 per cent. C) The partial refunds, which range from approximately $200 to $1,500, come after a 13-month investigation by the Queensland Office of Fair Trading (OFT). OFT investigators raided the company’s headquarters in February 2015, seizing documents and computer files, and handed over the case to the OFT’s Major Investigations Unit. The director of tactical compliance (遵守,合规) for the OFT, Steve L’Barrow, said the office’s main concern was the terms and conditions in Global’s contracts. “Our view was that several of the terms were unfair under the Australian consumer law,” Mr L’Barrow told the ABC. “Our focus was to try and get The Global Work and Travel Co. to change those terms and correct the problems they’d actually caused by relying on those terms.” D) Mr L’Barrow said many of the young travellers the OFT investigators spoke to claimed they had felt pressured to sign up for expensive Global programs and some arrived in other countries to find the services they had paid for, such as assistance with setting up a bank account, were not comprehensive or helpful. Some customers complained after arriving for volunteer programs in Africa and Sri Lanka that did not exist. “I would describe the conduct of this company as unethical (不道德的) and indifferent (冷漠的),” Mr L’Barrow said. “They really didn’t care about what financial position they were putting the kids in and they didn’t care that their conduct was unfair. The young customers are bright kids but they’re not sophisticated consumers in terms of contractual obligations and negotiations, and our view was that the conduct of this company really took advantage of that.” E) The OFT began to negotiate with Global’s directors in mid-2015, after threatening to publicly name the company as a trader that posed an unacceptable risk to consumers. As part of the negotiations, Global agreed to appoint an independent compliance advisor to help the company review its business practices and complaint-handling procedures. “The company is doing the right thing now, we will give them the credit, but they were dragged all the way to do it,” Mr L’Barrow said. “In my opinion they were probably one of the most uncooperative companies that we’ve actually dealt with. We will keep them on our radar and if there is any significant surge in complaints again about their conduct they can certainly be assured we will be knocking on their door again.” F) The Global Work and Travel Co. issued a press release acknowledging that the company had been working with the OFT and had reached an agreement to make compensations and resolve complaints. “We admit — readily admit — that we are a very fast growing start-up company, and in that growth process, we have overlooked a few things and learned some valuable lessons along the way,” the company’s statement said. The statement confirmed that Global has sought external compliance advice. “Our aim is to ensure our clients are fully protected, and that we are not just following the letter, but also the spirit of the law,” the statement said. “And for that reason, we have voluntarily brought on board the services of an independent compliance advisor, to review all of our internal processes and make sure clients are treated fairly.” G) The 29 customers who are receiving partial refunds were notified by email from the OFT. Ingrid Micallef, 20, from Melbourne, has been refunded $1,500 after she paid $6,000 for an airfare and a three-month volunteering program in Kenya in 2014. “The program I signed up for wasn’t quite there, it didn’t really exist,” Ms Micallef said. “The school and the camp weren’t open, I was put in a host home about an hour away from the actual camp, there was no medical centre that they said there was, and there was no training they said there was. It was a big shock, and it was the first time I had travelled by myself as well, so it was really hard to be over there without support.” Ms Micallef ended up joining other volunteer programs. H) Glenn Anderson from the New South Wales Central Coast paid Global more than $5,000 for a package including flights and a job on arrival in Canada in 2012. Mr Anderson claims the company pushed him to travel to Vancouver prior to Christmas in 2012, but when he arrived there was no job for him and he had to make his own arrangements because the company shut its offices for the holidays. He has now been refunded his program fee of $595. He said that was “better than nothing I guess, but is still not near what we spent with them, so kind of a bit disappointing overall”. I) During the course of the OFT investigation, officers spoke to several of Global’s former employees, many of whom had blown the whistle about the company’s practices in November 2014. “I’m really glad that we all spoke out,” former sales person Louisa Canning said. “I’m glad that the customers are getting their money back. None of us wanted really to be working there at the end of the day and pushing people into buying things, so I’m delighted the customers have been able to get back what they deserve.” 1. The working holiday company had their business practices reviewed by a third party and admitted their mistakes. 2. Some young inexperienced students were taken advantage of by the company when they were told to sign contracts that had problems. 3. Many people who had worked for the company exposed its dishonest practices and felt happy that the young customers got their money back. 4. Twenty-nine people were contacted by the OFT concerning partial refunds they could receive. 5. The OFT made an investigation for more than a year with a focus on the terms of the company’s contracts. 6. Despite some customers’ complaints, the company claimed that almost all of their customers were satisfied with their work and travel arrangements. 7. The company would not cooperate with the OFT until it was told that its name would appear on a warning list for the public. 8. One young customer paid the company for a job placement in Canada, but he didn’t have a job on his arrival. 9. The company makes money by making arrangements for young people to travel and work mainly in English-speaking countries. 10.An OFT director promised to continue checking on the company and take action against it if there is a significant increase in customers’ complaints again.

Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once.(只需填写答案对应的序号) The Relativity of Absolute Well-Being A) How are people’s desires for and consumption of things dependent on what others have? We can best answer this question by considering how their desires for and consumption of things are not dependent on what others have. It is natural to think here in terms of basic needs or minimum requirements — conditions that must be met if a person is to lead a minimally decent life. A person’s need to consume some number of calories and nutrition, or to have clothing and shelter against the elements, exists independently of what other people have or do. Without food one dies; what other people do is unrelated. B) Even biological needs, however, are not wholly independent of context or circumstance; they may depend, in particular, in part on what other people do. In a society in which considerable physical effort is important — either because physical activity is socially valued or because scarcity requires strength or speed to acquire necessities — a greater caloric intake might be needed to function effectively or well. C) Whether all needs are partly relative to what others do, and thus in some cases to “ways of life”, is a question we need not answer here. Two points are worth noting, however. First, a great deal depends on how we specify or describe needs. Suppose, for example, we agree that people have a basic need for enough food to survive or thrive. Stated in this way, the need is absolute in the sense of remaining the same regardless of circumstances, including the behavior of others. But how much food is enough to survive or thrive will vary depending on the circumstances. Thus, although we can describe the need absolutely, its satisfaction may depend on relational facts. As Amartya Sen argues, the absolute satisfaction of some needs might depend on a person’s position relative to others. D) Second, some needs are much more relative than others. The need for air is quite nonrelative. Think, by contrast, of the ability to work, or, even more simply, to get around and do things (acquire food and the like) for oneself. In many contemporary communities, it is difficult to perform these tasks without private transportation. The need for a car is not “absolute” in the sense of existing no matter what context is. The economic system and the infrastructure (基础设施) could have evolved differently so that a car would not be an absolutely necessary item of modern life. A well-functioning system of public transportation creates and perpetuates demand: the larger and finer the net it casts (that is, the more places you can get to using it), the more people use it; the more people use it, the greater its economies of scale; the greater its economies of scale, the better and cheaper it gets. In such cases, people have purely economic and practical reasons for doing as others do. E) In many communities today, however, a car is a virtual necessity; indeed, for a suburban or rural family two cars are often required. A person’s desire for a car, then, although dependent on what other people have and do, need not be rooted in greed, envy, or the desire for status. Many items once thought of as high-tech luxuries — television, cable television, computers, online databases — become nearly essential in a technologically sophisticated society. Invention is the mother of necessity. F) Just how far the point illustrated by this example extends is a difficult question. The danger on one side is being led to say that the lack of a necessity relative to others in one’s society is the frustration of a basic or important need. On the other side, critics of contemporary Western culture — those who criticize “conspicuous consumption” and materialistic values — often pay insufficient attention to the significance of relative deprivation (缺失) for absolute well-being. G) Even when it would be an exaggeration to say that a particular item has moved from the status of luxury to necessity, new goods often become entrenched (牢固确立) in a society — become more like needs — in a subtle and interesting process. We can observe this transformation with many recent innovations: microwaves, answering machines, VCRs, electronic mail. When first introduced, such items may not appear valuable, at least to those not crazy about gadgets. Gradually — but really very quickly — even the skeptics start to notice the thing’s uses. For example, while the benefits to owners of answering machines were immediately apparent, some callers at first found the devices awkward or even insulting. Soon, however, even skeptical callers began to notice the advantages to themselves: not having to call back repeatedly when no one answered; avoiding unwanted and unnecessarily long conversations. Complaints about “talking to a machine” are rarely heard anymore. H) How is this phenomenon of the entrenchment of new products linked to the relational aspects of consumption? Acquisition of a product by many people can make it more necessary in an absolute sense, even if not always a “necessity”. In some cases — public versus private transportation — this is a question of infrastructure: where others take buses, there will be buses, available to all, and I will have less need for a car. In other cases, such as electronic mail and online databases, we have what economists call networking effects: one lacking the service is made worse off by being cut off from the flow of information. Even the answering machine can affect how people conduct business, so that those lacking them may both suffer disadvantages themselves and also inconvenience others. So, for example, where it is assumed that most people have answering machines, it might be reasonable to ask someone to make a dozen phone calls, on the assumption that messages can be left if no one answers. The person without an answering machine forces the messenger to work harder by calling repeatedly, and is more likely not to be reached at all. This may be more than an inconvenience: it may cost a businessperson his livelihood if the caller is a customer with alternative providers. 1. The efficient operation of the public transportation system, for example, may make the need for a car not absolute. 2. Critics of conspicuous consumption may need to consider what some people lack compared with others in terms of certain absolute needs. 3. One’s life can become inconvenient if lacking certain goods or services that are available to many other people. 4. Some needs are absolute but how much is enough to satisfy the needs may be relative. 5. A person’s basic needs for a minimally decent life are independent of what others have. 6. Many technological inventions worked their way gradually into people’s lives and became accepted as a necessity. 7. One may suffer a business loss if he makes his customer call repeatedly without the choice of leaving a message on an answering machine. 8. Owning a car in the countryside or a computer in this modern world may not be considered conspicuous consumption. 9. New items, when first introduced, could be dismissed by some people who did not consider them useful. 10. A society’s way of life which requires physical work may depend in part on what and how much others consume.

Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. (只填答案对应序号即可) For American Workers in China, a Culture Clash (冲突) A) As more Americans go to China to take jobs, more Chinese and Americans are working side by side. These cross-cultural partnerships, while beneficial in many ways, are also highlighting tensions that expose differences in work experience, pay levels and communication. B) In the last few years, a growing number of Americans in their 20s and 30s have been heading to China for employment, attracted by its faster-growing economy and lower jobless rate. Their Chinese co-workers are often around the same age. “The tight collaboration of the two countries in business and science makes the Chinese-American pairing one of the most common in the workplace in China,”said Vas Taras, a management professor at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, a specialist in cross-cultural work group management. C) But the two groups were raised differently. The Americans have had more exposure to free-market principles.“Young Americans were brought up in a commercial environment,”said Neng Zhao, 28, a senior associate at Blue Oak Capital, a private equity firm based in Beijing.“We weren't. So the workplace is a unique learning process for my generation.”People in Ms. Zhao's generation were born around or shortly after Deng Xiaoping opened up China to the West, so China has evolved from a government-regulated economy to a more free-market system in their lifetime. Therefore, they can face a steeper learning curve. Sean Leow, 28, founder of Neocha, a social networking site based in Shanghai, says young Chinese employees often enter jobs with less hands-on preparation. They may also have less understanding of client services, he said. In addition, he said,“I know a lot of my Chinese colleagues did not do internships in college,”in contrast to United States students. D) Managers hiring workers in China appear to be paying a premium (额外费用) for Western experience. Foreigners tend to earn 10 to 15 percent more than Chinese employees in similar positions, said Michael Norman, senior vice president at Sibson Consulting, an American firm. That imbalance does not go unnoticed by Chinese workers.“There is definitely the perception that Americans get paid more for the same work,”said Ting Wang, 25, an associate at WildChina, a travel company based in Beijing. The difference is a function of supply and demand, Mr. Norman said.“If you need the foreigner for their specialized knowledge of the West, companies are willing to pay a little more.” E) On the other hand, Chinese workers have a deeper understanding of the influences, like Confucianism and Daoism, that play a part in their country's culture and economy. It is necessary for Americans working in China to adjust, said Mr. Norman, who works on management and work force issues for multinational companies operating in Asia.“In the West, there is such an emphasis on getting things done quickly, but when you come to work in China, you need to work on listening and being more patient and understanding of local ways of doing business,”he said. Ming Alterman, 25, a senior account executive at Razorfish, a Shanghai-based digital media firm, is the only American among 40 employees. He says Americans need to understand the importance of building so-called guanxi. The word means relationships, but has implications beyond the obligatory happy hour, occasional lunches with the boss or networking.“In China, it's really expected that you become friends with your boss and you go out and socialize in a way that doesn't happen in the U.S.,”Mr. Alterman said. F) The Chinese now rising in the work force were raised and educated in a system that tended to prize obedience and rote learning. Americans may have had more freedom to question authority and speak their minds. This can affect workplace communication. When Corinne Dillon, 25, was working at a multinational company in Beijing, she noticed that her Chinese colleagues were sometimes hesitant about expressing their opinions, which she thought was rooted in views about hierarchy (等级制度).“Because foreigners are often in higher positions in companies, or even when they are not, there is sometimes respect given to them that makes Chinese people not want to directly disagree with them for fear of being perceived as impolite," said Ms. Dillon, who is now director of sales and marketing at That's Mandarin, a language school based in Beijing. G) The difference cuts both ways. Ms. Zhao, of Blue Oak Capital, recalled her first experience working for an American at an American-run agency in Beijing. What her American boss perceived as directness left her feeling humiliated, she said. “I remember I was so embarrassed when my American boss told me he didn't like something I was doing, right in front of me,”she said.“The Chinese way would have been much more indirect.”Communication styles, Professor Taras said, can create workplace challenges.“Americans often perceive the Chinese as indecisive, less confident and not tough enough, whereas the Chinese may see Americans as rude or inconsiderate.”This, he said,“can lead to conflicts and misunderstandings, but also affect promotion (升迁) and task assignment choice, and ultimately performance.” H) What is similar, though, is that both the Americans and the Chinese perceive a glass ceiling. “Most foreigners don't speak good enough Chinese, so their promotion opportunities are limited, and on a social and cultural level, young Chinese feel there are barriers that are hard to get past,” said Ziyu Wen, 28, who works with Americans in her job as a communications manager in Beijing. I) Despite the tension, the Chinese-American pairing holds many economic and political benefits for both countries. “China needs workers who understand China and the West, so they can develop a business presence and influence in overseas markets,”Mr. Norman said.“Likewise, America needs people who truly understand the Chinese, in order to compete and cooperate." Having Americans working alongside the Chinese in China, he said,“is one of the best ways to cultivate and internalize this understanding for the future.” ⒈ Compared with young Americans, young Chinese start to work with less practical experiences and knowledge of market economy. 2 Chinese workers have their own advantage because they know more about their own culture. 3 Differences in communication styles exist when Americans feel more free to give different opinions and Chinese workers avoid disagreement out of respect. 4 Misunderstandings can occur when an American speaks directly but a Chinese feels it is more appropriate to speak indirectly. 5 More and more young Americans go to work in China because of its economic development and high employment rate. 6 Unlike Americans, Chinese workers develop a friendly relationship with their boss. 7 Foreigners working in China get paid more than Chinese workers as their Western knowledge and experience are needed. 8 It is mutually beneficial for the Chinese to work with Americans because each can offer what the other needs. 9 Cultural differences come into play when Americans work with the Chinese in terms of work experience, pay and communication style. 10 Both the American and the Chinese feel their own disadvantages keep them from moving up in their jobs as they would hope to.

147. 1. Match(段落匹配题) Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. (只填答案对应序号即可) Living with Peter Pan A) Social scientists are starting to realize that a permanent shift has taken place in the way we live our lives. In the past, people moved from childhood to adolescence and from adolescence to adulthood, but today there is a new, intermediate phase along the way. The years from 18 until 25 and even beyond have become a distinct and separate life stage, a strange, transitional period between adolescence and adulthood during which people put off the iron cage of adult responsibility that constantly threatens to crash down on them. They’re betwixt and between. You could call them twixters. B) Maybe the twixters are in denial about growing up, but the rest of society is equally in denial about the twixters. Nobody wants to admit they’re here to stay, but that’s where all the evidence points. Tom Smith, director of the General Social Survey, a large sociological data-gathering project run by the National Opinion Research Center, found that most people believe that the transition to adulthood should be completed by the age of 26, on average, and he thinks that number is only going up. “In another 10 or 20 years, we’re not going to be talking about this as a delay. We’re going to be talking about this as a normal trajectory (轨迹),” Smith says. “And we’re going to think about those people getting married at 18 and forming families at 19 or 20 as an abnormal historical pattern.” C) There may even be a biological basis to all this. The human brain continues to grow and change into the early 20s, according to Abigail Baird, who runs the Laboratory for Adolescent Studies at Dartmouth. “We as a society consider an individual at the age of 18 ready for adult responsibility,” Baird points out. “Yet recent evidence suggests that our neuropsychological development is many years from being complete. There’s no reason to think 18 is a magic number.” How can the twixters be expected to settle down when the gray matter in their central nervous system hasn’t? D) A new life stage is a major change, and the rest of society will have to change to make room for it. One response to this very new phenomenon is extremely old-fashioned: old-style apprenticeship (学徒) programs that give high school graduates a cheaper and more practical alternative to college. In 1996 Jack Smith, then CEO of General Motors, started Automotive Youth Educational Systems (AYES), a program that puts high school kids in shops alongside seasoned car mechanics. More than 7,800 students have tried it, and 98% of them have ended up working at the business where they apprenticed. “I knew this was my best way to get into a dealership,” says Chris Rolando, 20, an AYES graduate who works at one in Detroit. “My friends are still at pizza-place jobs and have no idea what to do for a living. I just bought my own house and have a career.” E) But success stories like Rolando’s are rare. Child welfare, the juvenile-justice system, special-education and support programs for young mothers usually cut off at age 18, and most kids in foster care get kicked out at 18 with virtually no safety net. “Age limits are like the time limits for welfare recipients,” says Frank Furstenberg, a sociologist who heads a research consortium called the MacArthur Network on Transitions to Adulthood. “But people are not necessarily able to transition into supportive services or connections to other systems.” And programs for the poor aren’t the only ones that need to grow up with the times. Only 54% of respondents in the Time poll were insured through their employers. That’s a reality that affects all levels of society, and policymakers need to strengthen that safety net. F) Most of the problems that twixters face are hard to see, and that makes it harder to help them. Twixters may look as if they have been overindulged, but they could use some good support. Psychologist Terri Apter’s research at Cambridge suggests that the more parents sympathize with their twixter children, the more they take time to discuss their twixters’ life goals, the more aid and shelter they offer them, the easier the transition becomes. “Young people know that their material life will not be better than their parents’,” Apter says. “They don’t expect a safer life than their parents had. They don’t expect more secure employment or finances. They have to put in a lot of work just to remain O.K.” Tough love may look like the answer, but it’s not what twixters need. G) The real heavy lifting may, above all, have to happen on the level of the culture itself. There was a time when people looked forward to taking on the responsibilities of adulthood. That time is past. Now our culture trains young people to fear it. “I don’t ever want a lawn,” says Gordon. “I don’t ever want to drive two hours to get to work. I do not want to be a parent. I mean, hell, why would I? There’s so much fun to be had while you’re young.” He does have a point. Twixters have all the privileges of grown-ups now but only some of the responsibilities. H) If twixters are ever going to grow up, they need the means to do it — and they will have to want to. There are joys and satisfactions that come with assuming adult responsibility, though you won’t see them on The Real World. To go to the movies or turn on the TV is to see a world where life ends at 30; these days, every movie is Logan’s Run. There are few road maps in the popular culture — and to most twixters, this is the only culture — to get twixters where they need to go. If those who are 30 and older want the rest of the world to grow up, they’ll have to show the twixters that it’s worth their while. “I went to a Poster Children concert, and there were 40-year-olds still rocking,” says Jennie Jiang. “It gave me hope.” 1. Our society assumes a person of eighteen should take responsibility as an adult, but his or her biological development is actually not ready yet. 2. It is unfortunate that support programs for young people to grow up are no longer available when they reach the age of eighteen. 3. Pop culture is what young people are exposed to only and it provides little guidance for them to grow up. 4. Society needs to change by providing practical programs as an option to young people and helping them make a living. 5. Now that young people are afraid to take adult responsibility, significant changes need to happen in culture. 6. There is a transitional period between adolescence and adulthood, when people do not want to take responsibility for now. 7. Better and stronger supportive programs need to be provided for young people’s transition to adulthood. 8. Research shows that young people’s transition to adulthood can be made easier with their parents’ support. 9. Young people need to know how to grow up, and they need to have the desire to grow up. 10. Whether people want to admit it or not, young people are experiencing a longer transition to adulthood.
