Part 1·Read the following passages, eight sentences have been removed from the article.·Choose.from the sentences A-H the one which fits each gap.·For each gap (1-8) mark one letter (A-H) on the Answer Sheet.·Do not mark any letter twice.Today’s career assumptions are you can get a lot of development, challenge and job satisfaction and not necessarily be in a management role.A new malady is running rampantly in corporate America: management phobia. (1) " I hated all the meetings," says a 10-year award-winning manager, "and I found the more you did for people who worked for you, the more they expected." (2) With technology changing in a wink, you can never slack off these days if you’re on the technical side. (3) In addition, the Dilbert factor is at work. With Scott Adams’s popular cartoon character— as well as many television sitcoms — routinely portraying managers as morons or enemies, they just don’t get much respect anymore.Supervising others was always a tough task, but in the past that stress was offset by hopes for career mobility and financial rewards. (4) But in today’s global, more competitive arena, a manager sits on an insecure perch. (5) There are far fewer rungs on the corporate ladder for managers to climb. In addition, managerial jobs demand more hours and headaches than ever before but offer slim, if any, financial paybacks and perks.Furthermore, managers now must supervise many people who are spread over different locations, even over different continents. (6) In an age of entrepreneurship, when the most praised people in business are those launching something new, management seems like an invisible, thankless role. (7) Management layoffs have done much to erode interest in managerial jobs, of course. (8) (6) should choose()

C. Restructuring have eliminated layer after layer of management as companies came to view their organizations as collections of competencies rather than hierarchies.
D. They must manage across functions with, say, design, finance, marketing and technical people reporting to them.
E. I was a counselor, motivator, financial adviser and psychologist.
F. Employers are looking for people who can do things, not for people who make other people do things.
G. American Management Association surveys say three middle managers are laid off for every one being hired.
H. Along with a sizable pay raise, people chosen as managers would begin a nearly automatic climb up the career ladder to lucrative executive perks: stock options, company cars, club memberships, plus the key to the executive washroom.

Part 3Questions 19-25·Read the following passage and answer questions 19-25.·For questions 19-25, choose the correct answer A, B, C and D.·Markyour answers on the Answer Sheet.In my early childhood I received no formal religious education. I did, of course, receive the ethical and moral training that moral and conscientious parents give their children. When I was about ten years old, my parents decided that it would be good for me to receive some formal religious instruction and to study the Bible, if for no other reason than that a knowledge of both is essential to the understanding of literature and culture.As lapsed Catholics, they sought a group which had as little doctrine and dogma as possible, but what they considered good moral and ethical values. After some searching, they joined the local Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends. Although my parents did not attend Meetings for Worship very often, I went to First Day School there regularly, eventually completing the course and receiving an inscribed Bible.At the Quaker school, I learned about the concept of the "inner light" and it has stayed with me. I was, however, unable to accept the idea of Jesus Christ being any more divine than, say, Buddha. As a result, I became estranged form the Quakes who, though believing in substantially the same moral and ethical values as I do, and even the same religious concept of the inner light, had arrived at these conclusions from a premise which I could not accept. I admit that my religion is the poorer for having no revealed word and no supreme prophet, but my inherited aversion to dogmatism limits my faith to a Supreme Being and the goodness of man.Later, at another Meeting for Worship, I found that some Quakers had similar though not so strong reservations about the Christian aspects of their belief. I made some attempt to rejoin an organized religious group, I did not wish to become one again. I do attend Meeting for Worship on occasion, but it is for the help in deep contemplation which it brings rather than any lingering desire to rejoin the fold.I do believe in a "Supreme Being" (or ground of our Being, as Tillich would call it). This Being is ineffable and not to be fully understood by humans. He is not cut off from the world and we can know him somewhat through the knowledge which we are limited to the world. He is interested and concerned for humankind, but on man himself falls the burden of his own life. To me the message of the great prophets, especially Jesus, is that good is its own reward, and indeed the only possible rewards are intrinsic in the actions themselves. The relationship between each human and supreme Being is an entirely personal one.It is my faith that each person has this unique relationship with the Supreme Being. To me that is the meaning of the inner light. The purpose of life, insofar as a human can grasp it, is to understand and increase this lifeline to the Supreme Being, this piece of divinity that every human has. Thus, the taking of any life by choice is the closing of some connection to God, and unconscionable. Killing anyone not only denies them their purpose, but corrupts the purpose of all men. The author rejected which of the following aspects of religious thought()
A. The existence of God.
B. The divine nature of human beings.
C. The value of sharing religious experiences.
D. The revealed word of Go
