Questions 16 to 18 are based onthe passage you have just heard.
The golden rule is a moral principle which states that you should treatothers the way you want to be treated yourself.For example,if you want people to treat you with respect,you should treat them with respect.
Different people tend to be exposed to different forms of the golden rule,based on factors such as the religion in their society.
However,all forms of the golden rule revolve around the same concept.Namely,they help you treat others better,by using the way you yourself would want to betreated as a guide of how to bchave.
A notable criticism of the golden rule is that its application can lead to undesirableoutcomes,when it conflicts with laws and ethical principles.
For example,if someonebreaks the law,the golden rule would suggest that we should let them go,because we would not want to be punished ourselves.
However,this issue with the golden rule can be dealt with in a general manner,by viewing this principle as one of several principles that we use to guide our behavior as individuals and as a society.
Specifically,in the example described above,most individuals and societies choose to place laws and ethical principles above the golden rule.This means that they strive to implement the golden rule whenever possible,as long as it doesn't clash with a more important concept.

Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.
Today,many large corporations stress the importance of diversity on their websites,but current statistics show that the typical manager in America still tends to be white and male.Obviously,the desire to bring about diversity has not translated into corporate reality.
Why useless?A team of researchers from the University of Basel published their new study about people's attitudes towards diversity at work. They found that people have a wide range of opinions concerning diversity.On the one hand,many see value in diversity,which can contribute a varietyof perspectives,encourage new ideas,and generate innovative solutions.On the other hand,they assume that it might be difficult to work with someone who has completely different views,speaks a different language,or has a different style of work.
The actual value they attribute to diversity depends on the decision-making perspective.Doubts about the practicabilityof diversity have a greater weight if a person is directly affected.In other words,when a person's own work group is involved,they tend to prefer team members who are similar to themselves. But when people make decisions for others,they typically put together a more diverse team.These findings could help organizations become more diverse.Companies need to pay attention to who makes hiring and team decisions.
These decisions should not only be made by those directlyaffected.People who are not directly involved in the group'sdaily work should also take part.
19.What do we learn from the current statistics about diversity in large corporations?
A)Many of them find it rather difficult to manage.
B)They have not seen as much diversity as desired.
C)Many of them have an increasingly diversifiedstaff.
D)They have not quitegrasped the conceptof diversity.
20.What is the newly published study focused on?
A)Initiatives to achieve diversity in largecorporations.
B)Advantages and disadvantages of a diversified team.
C)People'sattitudes towards diversity at the workplace.
D)Innovative ideas and solutions resulting from diversity.
21.What do the findings ofthe new study show?
A)People prefer towork with team members similar to themselves.
B)Employers attach great importance to their corporations'diversity.
C)Employers differ,from employees in theirperspectives on diversity.
D)Doubtsabout the practicability of diversity are gradually disappearing.

Questions 22 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.
Communication can essentially be divided into two categories:the written and the spoken.
How the balance isstruck between these two formsof communication—the pointat which one needs to be exchanged for another—really depends on individual cultures.
Understanding when it's appropriate to exchange one form for another can be a major key to sucess in international business.
Many cultures place a much greater value on the spoken word than the American working culture does.
In parts of the Middle East,you'll find spoken word agreements are seen as seriously binding.A person's word is linked to their honor,so verbal agreements are seen as important,whereas written contracts are taken as memos of understanding.
Western working culture tends to place a high value on the written word,and this reaches its highest level of intensity when it comes to contracts.In the US,France and Germany,written contracts tend to be scen as something that must bestrictly carried out.
By contrast,other cultures may not see written contracts as quite so binding.It can prove a challenge to Western businesses if your business partner wants to renegotiate terms that you thought were already agreed on.
For example,a Japanese firm may have signed a contract,but they may not feel bound by every detail of it—particularly if circumstanccs later change.
Such differences in value that different working cultures place on the written word tend to cause many problems when it comes to business relationships.
22.What is a major key to success in international business according to the passage?
A)Choosing the best time for signing a business contract.
B)Changing one's form of communication from timeto time.
C)Laying equal stress on written andspoken communication.
D)Usingdifferent forms of communication appropriately.
23.What does the passage say about spoken word agreements in some Middle East countries?
A)They are regarded as seriously binding.
B)They are seldom honored by business partners.
C)They are taken as memos of understanding.
D)They are to be confirmed in written form.
24.What do welearn about the Western working culture?
A)It has reached the highest level of evolution.
B)Itplaces a high value on writtencontracts.
C)It regards written contractsas unalterable.
D)It has seen a decline inverbal agreements.
25.How does a Japanese firm tend to view a written contract?
A)Its details cannot be renegotiated.
B)It has to be carried out to the letter.
C)It strengthens business partnerships.
D)Its terms may not be strictly binding.
