TEST 1
READING PASSAGE 1 2016年4月21日
You should spend about 20 minutes on Questions 1-13, which are based on Reading Passage 1 below.
What the Managers Really Do?
When students graduate and first enter the workforce, the most common choice is to find an entry-level position. This can be a job such as an unpaid internship, an assistant, a secretary, or a junior partner position. Traditionally, we start with simpler jobs and work our way up. Young professionals start out with a plan to become senior partners, associates, or even managers of a workplace. However, these promotions can be few and far between, leaving many young professionals unfamiliar with management experience. An important step is understanding the role and responsibilities of a person in a managing position. Managers are organisational members who are responsible for the work performance of other organisational members. Managers have formal authority to use organisational resources and to make decisions. Managers at different levels of the organisation engage in different amounts of time on the four managerial functions of planning, organising, leading, and controlling.
However, as many professionals already know, managing styles can be very different depending on where you work. Some managing styles are strictly hierarchical. Other managing styles can be more casual and relaxed, where the manager may act more like a team member rather than a strict boss. Many researchers have created a more scientific approach in studying these different approaches to managing. In the 1960s, researcher Henry Mintzberg created a seminal organisational model using three categories. These categories represent three major functional approaches, which are designated as interpersonal, informational and decisional.
Introduced Category 1: INTERPERSONAL ROLES. Interpersonal roles require managers to direct and supervise employees and the organisation. The figurehead is typically a top of middle manager. This manager may communicate future organisational goals or ethical guidelines to employees at company meetings. They also attend ribbon-cutting ceremonies, host receptions, presentations and other activities associated with the figurehead role. A leader acts as an example for other employees to follow, gives commands and directions to subordinates, makes decisions, and mobilises employee support. They are also responsible for the selection and training of employees. Managers must be leaders at all levels of the organisation; often lower-level managers look to top management for this leadership example. In the role of liaison, a manager must coordinate the work of others in different work units, establish alliances between others, and work to share resources. This role is particularly critical for middle managers, who must often compete with other managers for important resources, yet must maintain successful working relationships with them for long time periods.
Introduced Category 2: INFORMATIONAL ROLES. Informational roles are those in which managers obtain and transmit information. These roles have changed dramatically as technology has improved. The monitor evaluates the performance of others and takes corrective action to improve that performance. Monitors also watch for changes in the environment and within the company that may affect individual and organisational performance. Monitoring occurs at all levels of management. The role of disseminator requires that managers inform employees of changes that affect them and the organisation. They also communicate the company’s vision and purpose.
Introduced Category 3: DECISIONAL ROLES. Decisional roles require managers to plan strategy and utilise resources. There are four specific roles that are decisional. The entrepreneur role requires the manager to assign resources to develop innovative goods and services, or to expand a business. The disturbance handler corrects unanticipated problems facing the organisation from the internal or external environment. The third decisional role, that of resource allocator, involves determining which work units will get which resources. Top managers are likely to make large, overall budget decisions, while middle managers may make more specific allocations. Finally, the negotiator works with others, such as suppliers, distributors, or labor unions, to reach agreements regarding products and services.
Although Mintzberg’s initial research in 1960s helped categorise manager approaches, Mintzberg was still concerned about research involving other roles in the workplace. Minstzberg considered expanding his research to other roles, such as the role of disseminator, figurehead, liaison and spokesperson. Each role would have different special characteristics, and a new categorisation system would have to be made for each role to understand it properly.
While Mintzberg’s initial research was helpful in starting the conversation, there has since been criticism of his methods from other researchers. Some criticisms of the work were that even though there were multiple categories, the role of manager is still more complex. There are still many manager roles that are not as traditional and are not captured in Mintzberg’s original three categories. In addition, sometimes, Mintzberg’s research was not always effective. The research, when applied to real life situations, did not always improve the management process in real-life practice.
These two criticisms against Mintzberg’s research method raised some questions about whether or not the research was useful to how we understand “managers” in today’s world. However, even if the criticisms against Mintzberg’s work are true, it does not mean that the original research from the 1960s is completely useless. The author did not say Mintzberg’s research is invalid. His research has two positive functions to the further research.
The first positive function is Mintzberg provided a useful functional approach to analyse management. And he used this approach to provide a clear concept of the role of manager to the researcher. When researching human behavior, it is important to be concise about the subject of the research. Mintzberg’s research has helped other researchers clearly define what a “manager” is, because in real-life situations, the “manager” is not always the same position title. Mintzberg’s definitions added clarity and precision to future research on the topic.
The second positive function is Mintzberg’s research could be regarded as a good beginning to give a new insight to further research on this field in the future. Scientific research is always a gradual process. Just because Mintzberg’s initial research had certain flaws, does not mean it is useless to other researchers. Researchers who are interested in studying the workplace in a systematic way have older research to look back on. A researcher doesn’t have to start from the very beginning—Older research like Mintzberg’s have shown what methods work well and what methods are not as appropriate for workplace dynamics. As more young professionals enter the job market, this research will continue to study and change the way we think about the modern workplace.

程中,作者投入瞭大量精力,從細心篩選雅思機經試題並加以還原,到精心編著真題解析、反復打磨,無不體現瞭作者的細心思量和良苦用心。在曆經反復雕琢後,現終

閱讀詞匯儲備,找到真實的考場體驗,習得精煉的解題方法和技巧,延續《9分閱讀》係列的押題神話!
本書的編排特色主要有以下幾個方麵:
一、2012年-2016年6套雅思閱讀真題完整收錄。
本書收錄瞭2012年-2016年6套完整的雅思閱讀真題,“烤鴨”們可通過本書在考前調整好心態,進行適當的訓練。本書所收錄的6套閱讀真題與《9分達人雅思閱讀真
題還原及解析》《9分達人雅思閱讀真題還原及解析2》《9分達人雅思閱讀真題還原及解析3》《9分達人雅思閱讀真題還原及解析4》所收錄的真題均不重閤。考生可根據自己
的實際情況選做其中的題目,再對照解析部分查漏補缺,鞏固已有的知識和經驗,加深對雅思考試考點的印象和理解。
二、各套真題部分添加各個Passage的考試日期。
不同於該係列之前齣版的圖書,本書首次嘗試將各個Passage最新考過的日期放置在該題開始,方便考生瞭解各部分題目的考試日期,瞭解最新的考試動態。
三、“詞匯詳解”版塊順序調整。
本書沿用瞭《9分達人雅思閱讀真題還原及解析4》的四大版塊,它們分彆為:“真題集”“詞匯詳解”“題目詳解”和“參考譯文”。其中,“真題集”收錄瞭2012年-2016年6套閱讀真題;“詞匯詳解”匯總瞭閱讀文章中的重難點詞匯的釋義及相關拓展;“題目詳解”則是6套閱讀真題的詳盡解析。值得一提的是,我們在編寫《9分閱讀5》這本書時充分考慮到部分讀者對於記憶閱讀真題詞匯的需求,相較以往“詞匯詳解”中的重點詞匯隻在“參考譯文”原文部分以加粗形式呈現,這次則是將詞匯調整至譯文之後編排,方便“烤鴨”前後對照記憶。
“詞匯詳解”部分的使用方法有三:1.正常做完一套題後使用(較為推薦)。“烤鴨”將書中題目當做考前“模考”使用,能夠比較直觀反映自身真實水平,方便對做真題暴露的種種問題製定解決方案。在最後分析總結階段可幫助各位分析是否是因為詞匯問題導緻理解錯誤選錯瞭答案,這樣更有助於加深對文章和詞匯的理解記憶。2.做題之前先熟悉或學習所有詞匯。這適用於備戰時間短、隻期望將此書作為押題寶典的“烤鴨”。該詞匯詳解可作為“難詞錶”字典,方便閱讀時遇到不熟悉的詞匯進行對照查找,更快地找齣答案。3.把該部分單獨拿齣來當詞匯書使用。如果備戰時間夠長,必要時,“烤鴨”可將這部分裁切下來隨身攜帶記憶。通過詞匯的學習和相對應的雅思文章閱讀來提高自己的單詞和閱讀實力,達到“以考促學”的效果。
四、詳盡的真題解讀與分析,手把手傳授經驗與技巧。
首先,本書結閤題目與原文對每一道閱讀題目進行瞭詳細的解讀。內容清晰明瞭,通俗易懂,可幫助“烤鴨”們既知其然又知其所以然。其次,解析中還匯聚瞭最有效的解題思路、
方法和技巧,有助於“烤鴨”們從技術層麵把握好考試節奏。相信“烤鴨”們在掌握好這些方法、技巧後能更從容地應對雅思閱讀考試。總之,“烤鴨”們須細心揣摩,讀透吃透,如此纔能將書本上的知識化為己用。
五、“《9分閱讀》係列齣版至今命中題目一覽”首次呈現。
《9分閱讀》係列的“考場押題技能”是毋庸置疑的,相信諸多“烤鴨”已深有體會。在考場中,人品爆發的“烤鴨”或許會驚喜地發現手中的雅思閱讀題竟然與本書中的題目一模一樣!鑒於“烤鴨”們對於《9分達人》係列命中率有著強烈的好奇心,本書我們將以閱讀係列為例,首次將其命中的日期以錶格形式呈現給各位。
當然,我們並不完全提倡“烤鴨”單純地以此為押題寶典。如時間充裕,務必請各位“烤鴨”把本書內容吃透瞭,不然即便在考場上碰到原題,也未必能運用自如。畢竟,書中的內
容隻有化為腦海中的知識,纔能幫助“烤鴨”們筆鋒指處,所嚮披靡!為方便“烤鴨”們互通有無、分享經驗、結伴同行,也為更好地瞭解“烤鴨”們的真實需求,切實服務廣大讀者,我們建立瞭新航道雅思讀者互動QQ群(群號見封底)及9分達人微信(“9分達人”二維碼見封麵),誠邀“烤鴨”們和英語愛好者加入,與誌同道閤者一起交流心得、暢所欲言!如果您對我們有任何意見或建議,也請不要忘記告訴我們!我們會認真對待每一位讀者的意見和提議,不斷改善、不斷進步,為大傢推齣更優秀的圖書!
