When it comes to selecting candidates through interview, more often than not the decision is made with the first five munutes of a meeting. Yet employers like to {suggest; convince; advise} themselves that they are being exceptionally thorough in their selection processes. In today's marketplace, the {worth; credit; quality} of staff is fundamental to the company's success and, as a result, recruiters use all means at their disposal to secure the best in the field.
One method in particular that has risen in popularity is testing, either psychometric testing(心理测试), which attempts to define psychological characteristics, or aptitude testing. The idea is that those testing provide an organization with an extra way of establishing a candidate's suitability for a role.
The employment of psychometric or ability testing as one {component ; member; share} of the recruitment process may have some merits, but in reality there is simply no real {extent; measure; amount} . The answer to this problem is experience in interview techniques and a strong definition of the elements of each position to be filled. The instinctive decision that many employers make, based on a CV and the first five minutes of a meeting, are perhaps no less valid than any other tool employed in the {business; topic; point} of recruitment.

In practice much foreign aid is“ied"; that is, it comes with restrictions that require that the recipient spend the aid on goods from the donor country. For example, France might provide money for an irrigation project in Africa, on the condition that the pumps, pipelines, and construction equipment be purchased from France rather than from Japan. How does such tying of aid affect the transfer problem analysis? Does tying of aid make sense from the donor's point of view? Can you think of a scenario in which tied aid actually makes the recipient worse off?

Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. (76) Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. By work people come into with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.
Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Work makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.
(77) From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study and live a happy and healthy life.
The underlined word "average" in Paragraph 1 means ______.
A.healthy
B.lazy
C.ordinary
D.poor

根据以下材料回答题
Most of you would probably say that what makes you truly happy is your family and the loveyou share in your relationships, and I couldn&39;t agree more.But money comes into play inthose relationships.
When I talk about money this way to a group, there is always someone who comes up to meand says, "Suze, you are so wrong.Money isn&39;t the key to life--this is!" At which point their wal-let flies open and they show me a photo of their family.
That&39;s when things get interesting, because I start asking them questions: Did you take thatphoto with your own camera? It looks like a beautiful beach, was the photo taken on a family va-cation? Do you hope to help those beautiful boys and girls go to college?
As their answers are"yes", I ask them how they provide all of that for their.family.That&39;swhen they understand that I had it fight.
I totally agree that family and friends are of great importance to our well being;without mean-ingful relationships, there&39;s no chance of ever being truly happy.That&39;s why, every Saturdaynight, I end my CNBC show with the following words:" People first.Then money.Then things."
How we deal with the money we have also plays into our happiness.Over the past few decades (十年), the percentage of Americans who say they&39;re happy hasn&39;t changed much, while at thesame time the average income has doubled.So we have more money, but we&39;re not much happieron average.
A paradox(悖论) ? Far from it.My sense is that while we&39;re making more money, we arent&39;tmaking more of the money we make.We have to pay for a lot of things, and we have to worry a-bout saving for retirement(退休) in a way that our parents and grandparents never did.And as man-y of you know, it&39;s really hard to increase your happiness when you&39;ve got a lot of money worries.
Do you agree, or am I way off base? I&39;d love to know what do you think about the money/happiness connection.
Why do people often show the author their family photos? 查看材料
A.They hope to show money is very important.
B.They want to prove they can afford a holiday.
C.They think a good family makes them truly happy.
D.They believe a happy person considers people first.

Passage One
Can animals be made to work for us? Some scientists think that one day animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs that are now done by human beings.
They point out that at a circus, for example, we may see elephants, monkeys, dogs and other animals doing quite skillful things. Perhaps you have seen them on the television or in a film. If you watch closely, you may notice that the trainer always gives the animal a piece of candy or a piece of fruit as a reward. The scientists say that many different animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs if they know they will get a reward for doing them.
Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a house, and soldiers in both old and modem times have used geese to give warning by making a lot of noise when a stranger or an enemy comes near. But it may be possible to train animals to work in factories. In Russia, for example, pigeons which are birds with good eyesight, are being used to watch out for faults in small steel balls that are being made in one factory. When the pigeon sees a ball which looks different from others, it touches a steel plate with its beak. This turns on a light to warn people in the factory. At the same time a few seeds are given as a reward. It takes three to five weeks to train a pigeon to do this and one pigeon can inspect 3 000 to 4 000 balls an hour.
Apes have been used in America in helping to make cars, and scientists believe that these large monkeys may be one day gather crops and even drive trains.
What made scientists think animal can be made to work for us one day? 查看材料
A.Animals are very skillful at a circus.
B.They are big and strong.
C.Some animals are as clever as human beings.
D.Animals can be trained because they like to get something as a reward.
