16、the following reviews of a book called The Bosses Speak. For each question 23-28, choose the correct answer. Mark letter (A,B or C) on your Answer Sheet. John Stuart is an executive recruitment specialist who has turned to writing. The result is this book, based on interviews with twenty Chief Execu

17、tives. Each top manager none of them famous names, surprisingly is given a short chapter, and there is some introductory material and a conclusion. This means you can jump from one person to another, in any order, which is good for people who are too busy to read a book form cover to cover. For a ma

18、nagement book it isnt expensive, although whether its good value for money is doubtful. Some of the twenty interviewees started their own businesses, while others joined a company and worked , and fairly new in their position, and others have had years of experience though, strangely, Stuart doesnt

19、seem interested in these differences. The interviewees work in everything, from retailing to airlines to software, and it is this variety that forms the main theme of Stuarts book.

21、 learn what makes a successful Chief Executive. But these people seem to share two types of qualities. Some of them are very common, suggesting that anyone can be equally successful, which is definitely not the case. And the other qualities are ones which most successful bosses Ive seen definitely d

22、o not have. So in the end Im no wiser about what really goes on. Perhaps Im being unfair. As long as you dont think about whether youd like them as friends, and pay no attention to most of the advice they give, the most readable parts are where the bosses describe their route to their present positi

23、on. Stuart seems to think that his book would be useful for people aiming for the top, and that it might even make a few want to start their own company; but, in fact, what they could learn here is very limited. Seen as light business reading for a doctor or teacher, though, this book would provide

24、some good entertainment. 23 The reviewer suggests that one advantage of the book is that . （ A） it is better value than other management books （ B） it does not need to be read right through （ C） it is about well-known people 24 The book concentrates on the fact that the twenty executives who are int

Furthermore 34 business people have been taught how to communicate effectively and 35 they communicate very badly at all levels. Recent re

30、search shows that 36 most serious problems experienced by modern businesses are communication ones.
