26、ding space tourism company“. The company has sold a space trip to Mark Shuttle- worth, a South African businessman. In April, Mr Shuttleworth will be launched into space from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.Experts say the change in policy at NASA shows a new desire to use space vehicles for b

27、usiness and industrial purposes.

28、are observed carefully.Yet, the average citizen will not be able to travel into space in the near future.

Getting a job there meant you were set for life at one of t

34、he most enlightened firms in the world.Company benefits sounded like a “whos who“ of worker-friendly programs. There was job security for life. You could leave work two hours early if you arrived two hours early. You could put children and elderly parents in IBM-paid care programs. You could go to g

35、raduate school full-time while still being paid. And there were no hourly workers. Everyone was considered important and mature, so everyone was paid a salary and didnt have to punch a time clock. The firm was one of the first to institute job enrichment programs; way before the term was even invent

36、ed. Everything it did was aimed at making employees feel important. And for years IBM had a highly motivated work force.But things have changed. IBM chairman John Akers told a startled group of management trainees that employees are “too damned comfortable at a time when the business is in crisis“.

37、He also said there are “too many people standing around the water cooler waiting to be told what to do“.Obviously, Akers thought shock therapy was in order, Between an economic recession and competition, IBM suffered a major drop m revenue in 1991. “What we need around here is a higher tension level

38、,“ Akers said. So theyre making some changes at IBM. The firm slashed about 17 000 jobs. And suddenly IBM wants its managers to encourage certain workers to leave the firm.The whole situation is a dilemma for IBM. Policies such as no layoffs have done a lot to motivate workers and make them loyal. Y

41、company began to change_.（分数：1.00）A.a few years agoB.a few months agoC.since 1990D.after John Akers became the General Manager(5).From this passage, we can conclude _.（分数：1.00）A.staff will work harder ii they are offered more benefitsB.punishment is a better motivator to staff than rewardC.the compa

42、ny must intensify its management to survive competitionsD.layoff is the best therapy for staff loyalty十、Passage 3(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Dr Thomas Starzl, like all the pioneers of organ transplantation, had to learn to live with failure. When he performed the worlds first liver transplant 25 years ago, the p

43、atient, a three-year-old boy, died on the operating table. The next four patients didnt live long enough to get out of the hospital. But more determined than discouraged, Starzl and his colleagues went back to their lab at the University of Colorado Medical School.They devised techniques to reduce t

44、he heavy bleeding during surgery, and they worked on better ways to pre- vent the recipients immune system from rejecting the organ an ever-present risk.But the triumphs of the transplant surgeons have created yet another tragic problem: a severe shortage of donor organs. “As the results get better,

45、 more people go on the waiting lists and theres wider disparity between supply and need,“ says one doctor. The American Council on Transplantation estimated that on any given day 15 000 Americans are waiting for organs. There is no shortage of actual organs; each year about 5 000 healthy people die

46、unexpectedly in the United States, usually in accidents. The problem is that fewer than 20 percent become donors.This trend persists despite laws designed to encourage organ recycling. Under the federal Uniform Anatomical Gift Act, a person can authorize the use of his organs after death by signing

47、a statement. Legally, the next of kin can veto these posthumous gifts, but surveys indicate that 70 to 80 percent of the public would not interfere with a family members decision. The biggest roadblock, according to some experts, is that physicians dont ask for donations, either because they fear of

48、fending grieving survivors or because they still regard some transplant procedures as experimental.When there arent enough organs to go around, distributing the available ones becomes a matter of deciding who will live and who will die. Once donors and potential recipients have been matched for body size and blood type, the sickest patients customarily go to the top of the local waiting list. Beyond the seriousness of the patients condition, doctors base their choice on such criteria as the length of time the patient has been waiting, how long it will take to obtain an organ
