听力原文： Mrs. Green was the manager of a large company, and frequently had to have meetings with other business people in a room in her building. She did not smoke at all, but many of the other people at the meetings did so. She often found the air during the meetings terrible. One day, after an hour, her throat and eyes were sore, she was coughing a lot, so she called a big air-conditioning company and asked them to work out how much it would cost to keep the air of the meeting room in her building really clean.
After a few days the air-conditioning company sent two estimates for Mrs. Green to choose from. One estimate was $5, 000 to put in new air-conditioning, and the other was for $5. 00 for a sign which said, "NO SMOKING".
What is Mrs. Green？

There are no bad foods, only bad diets. So say many nutritionists, who【C1】______ the demonization (妖魔化) of some foods as junk. On the evidence, there are an awful lot of bad diets around. A recent nationwide weigh-in of 11-year-olds【C2】______ that at a fifth were obese and since being weighed was voluntary and larger children were less【C3】______ to step on the scales, this was no doubt an underestimate.
So Ofcom, the communications watchdog, has【C4】______ that it may be time for a little food demonization after all. In the following few months it is to bring in a ban【C5】______ advertising foods that contain lots of fat or sugar during TV shows that【C6】______ particularly to children. And brand advertising, where no particular products is mentioned, will be【C7】______ . The basic idea is popular with parents, who see it as an easier option than using the off switch.
There are also worries about the specific foods【C8】______ . Ofcom is using a "nutrient-profiling scheme", in which foods are【C9】______ points for their good qualities (containing fruit or vegetables, say) and penalized for bad ones (lots of salt, sugar or fat). But the calculations are【C10】______ on a 100g-portion of the food, so condiments (佐料) such as Marmite and ketchup, which are never【C11】______ in such large quantities, are out.

"Never show the sole to an Arab, never arrive on time for a party in Brazil, and in Japan, don't think 'yes' means 'yes' , advise US consultants Lennie Copland and Lewis Brown Griggs, who have produced a series of films and a book to help managers improve their international business skills. But simply learning the social "dos" and "don'ts" is not the answer, according to the new culture specialists. The penalties for ignoring different thinking patterns, they point out, can be disastrous. For example, the American manager who promised to be fair thought he was telling his Japanese staff that their hard work would be rewarded, but when some workers received higher salary increases than others, there were complaints. "You told us you'd be fair, and you lied to us," accused one salesman. "It took me a year and a half", sighed the American, "to realize that 'fair' to my staff, meant being treated equally."
The Asian engineer who suffered in America was the victim of another mistaken expectation. "He was accustomed to the warm group environment so typical in Japan," said his US. manager. "But in our company, we're all expected to be self-starters, who thrive on working alone. For him, it was emotional starvation. He's made the adjustment now, but he'd be humiliated if I told you his name, That's another cultural difference."
The Japanese manager who failed to respond to his promotion couldn't bring himself to use the more direct language needed to communicate with his London-based superiors. "I used to think all this talk about cultural communication was a lot of baloney," says Eugene J. Flath, president of Intel Japan Ltd., a subsidiary of the American semiconductor maker. "Now, I can see it's a real problem. Miscommunication has slowed our ability to coordinate action with our office."
That's why Intel, with the help of consultant Clarke, began an intercultural training program this spring which Flath expects will dramatically reduce decision-making time now lost in making sure the Americans and the Japanese understand each other.
The best title for the passage would be ______.
听力原文：M: Let me see．1 have printed my family name，first name，date Of birth，and address．Anything else？
W：NO．That's all right．We'll fill in the rest of it and you just sign your nameatthebottom．
Q：What is the man most probably doing？

听力原文：M: Well, Amina, thanks for letting me have your draft in such good time.
W: Oh, that's alright. I was just very anxious to hear what you think of it. You can see that I decided to change the topic—I had been interested in looking at Barings Factory
M: Oh, (23) I think the hospital was a much better choice. In fact... well... I have to say that I thought it was good.
W: Oh ？
M: There's still lots of work to be done... But there're plenty of good ideas. It opens well and the first chapter is fine, (24) but the middle section really stood out for me...most interesting.
W: That's amazing because I really didn't find it a bit easy to write.
M: How long did you work on the whole thing？
W: Well, I spent about two or three weeks reading and doing general research and then I completed it very quickly, so about four weeks in all.
M: Well, that's normal for the course. You've got a while yet to make the changes. Let's have a look at my notes here. OK, starting with section headings.., the broad divisions are good but you'll have to redo the actual headings. I've made some suggestions in the margins. Now this information on local housing, I can see why you put it there but it really isn't relevant to the approach you've taken.
W: I think I see what you mean.
M: (25) And the interviews are very complex and rather unclear at the moment. You're going to have to spend a bit of time making the data a lot clearer.
W: What about the list of dates？
M: My advice on that is to take them out. I feel it makes the whole piece appear too simplistic.
