听力原文： Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For instance, in American culture the smile is typically an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other functions. A smile may show affection, convey politeness, or disguise true feelings. It is also a source of confusion across cultures. For example, many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers m public to be unusual and even suspicious behavior. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places. Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong place; some Americans believe that Russians don't smile enough. In Southeast Asian cultures, a smile is frequently used to cover emotional pain or embarrassment.
Our faces reveal emotions and attitudes, but we should not at tempt to "read" people from another culture as we would "read" someone from our own culture. The degree of facial expressiveness one exhibits varies among individuals and cultures. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another. does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather, there are cultural restraints on the amount of nonverbal expressiveness permitted.
If we judge people whose ways of showing emotions are different according to our own cultural norms, we may make the mistake of "reading" the other person incorrectly.

In other words, they adjust their training to their particular needs.
One recently employed graduate says that she is receiving a great deal of valuable training from the company. "This means that I will be a loyal employee", she says. "And it also means that the company will want to keep me. I am an important investment for them. So the policy is a good one because it benefits both the employer and the employee".
Recently, however, attitudes towards lifelong employment are beginning to change. Employees are slowly beginning to accept the idea that lifelong employment is not always in their best interest and that changing firms can have career advantages.
The purpose of lifelong employment is to ______.

W: Oh dear, I'm sorry.
M: So I wanted you to fix it. I'm sure it will be no problem, right？

W: Sir, I'm sorry, we have the six -month rule for a reason. We can't...

M: I just lost twenty dollars worth of tapes.
W: Sir, I'm sorry, it's too late.
M: Paying for this is adding insult to injury. I mean, surely you're going to make good on this cassette player. It's...it's...it's a good cassette player, but it's just defective. I mean, I can't pay for this.
W: Well, sir, I'm tarry, you should have brought it in earlier.
M: But surely you won't hold me to ten days on this.
W: Sir, the rules are the rules. I'm sorry, hut there's nothing I can do.
