听力原文：W: Do you think you can give an exact definition of "management"，Mr．Rogers？
M: Management is the process of achieving results through other people．
W: What are the functions of management？
M: There are mainly four．The first is planning．Managers define goals，establish strategy and develop plans to co-ordinate activities．
W: That's not easy，I think．
M: No．And the second is organizing，which means managers will determine what tasks to be done，who is to do them，how the tasks are to be grouped，who reports to whom，etc．
W: That's complicated．
M: And the third is leading．It includes motivating subordinates，directing others，selecting the most effective communication channels and resolving conflicts．
W: Do you think the goal of good management is to get rid of conflicts？
M: Actually，we've made considerable progress towards overcoming the view that conflict is bad．
W: So you mean conflicts can be good fur an organization？
M: Yes．Conflicts can be used to bring about substantial changes to the existing power structure，current patterns of interaction between people at work，and attitude．
W: That surprises me．
M: The last function controlling means to monitor activities to ensure they are being accomplished as planned，and correct significant deviations．
W: It is said that all managers need to realize that the more they delegate now，the less time will take to accomplish tasks later．Is that true？
M: Right．Without delegation，managers run the risk of being a "doer" rather than a "manager".
W: Can I understand this as "delegation is a ticket to fide free and have others to do your work"？
M: Not exactly．it is rather a means for managers to focus on their true functions，

It is clear that human history will end; the only mystery is when. It is also clear that if the timing is left to nature (or, if you prefer, to God) and humans hang on until the bloody end, the race's final exit will be ignoble(不光彩的). If future generations escape the saurian(蜥蜴类) agony of extinction by a wandering chunk of rock or ice, the sun's unavoidable growth to gianthood will still burn their last successors to ashes: only cinders and gases and dust will remain.
Far future generations might prolong the process by posting colonies beyond the earth's orbit, but these would be sad outposts at the end of the solar system's long day, clutching memories of a lost planet and of billions of sacrificed souls. The difficulties—fantastic difficulties—of interstellar(星际的) travel might be overcome, but the mightiest of starships could do no more than defer the end of the world. An ignoble existence hopping from planet to planet—clinging to each clod until it, in its turn, was vaporized or frozen—might still be bearable were it not for the knowledge of its final uselessness. In the end, there is only death by gravity or entropy, the fiery quantum(量子) pit or the heatless grey soup.
The great violinist Jascha Heifetz was great not least because he quit the concert stage at his peak, before the show became stale or the audience drifted away. To exit gracefully is sublime(美妙的), as Heifetz understood. And only one species is capable of choosing a similarly graceful exit; all others march on like robots. To call time on the human race by choice, not necessity, would be the final victory of the human spirit over animal nature, an absolute emancipation from the command of DNA. Precisely because no other known life-form. could do or even conceive such a thing, humanity must.
Science has revealed only one place in the universe that is hospitable to intelligent life, and humans are the only intelligence that, as far as is known, has ever enjoyed the opportunity to occupy it. If people left the stage after a reasonable run, in the fullness of time intelligence could evolve again (dolphin-people？ Chimp-people？ orchid(兰花)-people？). And then, in due course, when this new species deciphered(译解) human books or reached the marker that might be left for them on the windless moon, they would know that man ended his dominion so that theirs might begin. Imagine, then, how they will regard us. It is, far and away, the greatest act of goodness ever contemplated, the ennoblement of a whole species; an act, almost, of angels.
According to the passage, what might be human being's best choice for the final exit？
听力原文： About 20,000 whales have been slaughtered since a ban on commercial whaling was introduced in 1986 and the death toll is rising each year. Norway and Japan killed over 1,000 whales in 1999 and they plan to kill even more. The International Whaling Commission (IWC) has failed to stop the killing and a compromise deal may relax the ban allowing coastal whaling condemning many thousands more whales to a cruel death. In 1994, the IWC created a whale refuge in Antarctic waters and many believed the battle to save the whales had been won. But Japan has ignored the refuge and along with Norway continues to defy the whaling ban. As the environmental concerns increase whaling is no longer the issue it was or deserves to be. With little public awareness of the increasing whale slaughter, there has been no pressure to stop it. Consequently, the political will to confront the whalers and enforce the whaling ban has slipped away. Commercial whaling has ruined whale populations worldwide, pushing the entire species to the brink of extinction. There is still great scientific uncertainty about the size and status of remaining whale populations. Whales are facing increasing threats to their survival including increasing toxic pollution, massive over-fishing, boat collisions, habitat loss, ozone exhaustion and climate change. They need to be protected, not hunted. Commercial whaling is surprisingly cruel and unnecessary. It is morally indefensible. It should be condemned to history, to a time when sadly we knew no better!
