How many teachers come to school by bus？
听力原文：1 The advice I would give is to know your own business as much as you possibly can; know their business as much you possibly can; and know them. If you know where you are starting from, if you understand your business then you are not going to make a mistake on your side. The more you know their business, the better chance you have of actually pitching your own sales strategy appropriately. And the more you know of the person you are dealing with, the better chance you have of success. Of course, you cannot always win, but you can gain some lessons from failure and add to your experience.
2 There are a lot of general methods and some specific ones to our company. For instance, one general method is to get the managers to understand how they work together and to use models like Belbin's model that I know you've been using to give insights into how people behave in the management group. Another approach is to give people personal feedback about their management style. and how they are seen by their colleagues. The third approach is to actually observe the process going on in management. These methods will certainly improve your work efficiency and increase chances of success. Of course whether they can work well also depends on the quality of the person you work with.
3 Well, the key is to be enthusiastic because what you have to leave your delegates with is as much enthusiasm for the product as you've got. And if you've got that enthusiasm, they'll get out into the market; they'll produce your new product; they'll get involved in the sales campaign, and indeed they'll want you to take part in an incentive, which is the third reason I am going to give you. They'll want to get involved in the incentive that will actually ensure the sales campaign is a success, and that incentive might be a trip abroad, it might be to win a television or something like that. Anyway, it's something very attractive and rewarding.
4 Prospective employees are particularly concerned about people in positions of higher responsibility. They put this on the top of their priority. They are interested in selecting quality people who can be trusted with company information, knowledge and secrets. They need to be convinced that you offer value and skills to them. Spend some time thinking about what you have accomplished in your previous jobs and what skills you can bring to the table. Ask yourself whether these skills are in demand. Make a list and review it repeatedly. This will improve your attitude and self-confidence. In any case, be sure not to be rash for this might ruin all your opportunities. Besides, credit is also something they consider important in the quality of an employee.
5 Well, I think I would justify it on the basis that we are net "stealing" individuals. We are merely presenting them with opportunities. The final decision must be theirs. And the fmal decision for somebody to move jobs has to be a function of two things: We say there has to be a "push "and "pull". There has to be a push from their existing organization, and there has to be a "pull" to the new organization. We spend a lot of our time making it clear to them what the pull is, i.e. bigger job, more money, better location or whatever. We can do nothing at all about the push, that's up to them.

Nowhere is this more true than in the awarding of prizes. Because prizes carry the approval of an institution, we expect them to be somehow more authoritative than ordinary reviews. But even the winners of the most prestigious awards are chosen by individuals, each with his or her own particular tastes, and the high stakes involved can make those choices even more capricious. Recently, I was explaining to a mathematician friend how I had screened the scores of nonfiction books that were candidates for the short list of a national literary prize I participate in judging. "If by Page 100 the author hasn't managed to get me interested in the topic, I eliminate it," I said. "Surely there are objective criteria？" he replied, sounding a bit offended. Well, not really; a tedious volume full of useful information may have its merits, but not enough to make me champion it as one of the five best books of the year. And determining whether a work is boring or enthralling can be only a subjective decision.
Linguistic Follies
A In recent years Brussels has been a fine place to observe the irresistible rise of English as Europe's lingua franca. For native speakers of English who are lazy about learning languages (yes, they exist), Brussels has become an embarrassingly easy place to work or visit. English is increasingly audible and visible in this scruffily charming Belgian city, and frankly rampant in the concrete-and-glass European quarter. Now, however, signs of a backlash are building. This is not based on sentiment, but on chewy points of economic efficiency and political fairness. And in a neat coincidence, Brussels is again a good place to watch the backlash develop. Start in the European district, where to the sound of much grinding of French and German teeth, the expansion of the European Union has left English not just edging ahead of the two other working languages, but in a position of utter dominance. The union now boasts 27 members and 23 official languages, but the result has been the opposite of a new tower of Babel. Only grand meetings boast interpreters. At lower levels, it turns out, when you put officials from Berlin, Bratislava, Bucharest and Budapest in the same room, English is by far the easiest option.
B Is this good for Europe？ It feels efficient, but being a native English-speaker also seems to many to confer an unfair advantage. It is far easier to argue a point in your mother tongue. It is also hard work for even the best non-native speakers to understand other non-native versions of English, whereas it is no great strain for the British or Irish to decipher the various accents. Francois Grin, a Swiss economist, argues that Britain enjoys hidden transfers from its neighbours worth billions of euros a year, thanks to the English language. He offers several reasons, starting with spending in Britain on language teaching in schools, which is proportionately lower than in France or Switzerland, say. To add insult to injury, Britain profits from teaching English to foreigners. "Elevating one language to a position of dominance is tantamount to giving a huge handout to the country or countries that use it as a native language," he insists.
C What about the Europe outside the bubble of EU politics？ Surely the rise of English as a universal second language is good for business？ Perhaps, but even here a backlash is starting, led by linguists with close ties to European institutions and governments. They argue that the rush to learn English can sometimes hurt business by making it harder to find any staff who are willing to master less glamorous European languages. English is all very well for globe-spanning deals, suggests Hugo Baetens Beardsmore, a Belgian academic and adviser on language policy to the European Commission. But across much of the continent, firms do the bulk of their business with their neighbours. Dutch firms need delivery drivers who can speak German to customers, and vice versa. Belgium itself is a country divided between people who speak Dutch (Flemish) and French. A local plumber needs both to find the cheapest suppliers, or to land jobs in nearby France and the Netherlands.
D "English, in effect, blocks the learning of other languages," claims Mr Baetens Beardsmore. Just as the global rise of English makes life easy for idle Britons or Americans, it breeds complacency among those with English as their second language. "People say, 'well, I speak English and I have no need to learn another language.'" He cites research by the European Commission suggesting that this risk can be avoided if school pupils are taught English as a third tongue after something else. A huge government-financed survey of Brussels businesses reveals a dire shortage of candidates who can speak the right local languages (40% of firms have reported losing contracts because of a lack of languages). One result is a very odd labour market. By day, Brussels is more or less bilingual, hostin

SECTION B ENGLISH TO CHINESE
Directions: Translate the following text into Chinese.
Epicureans discover a place through its tastes. From the sweet sticky juices of mangoes or lobster, the sweetness of roast lamb or tomatoes, they learn about the climate, the soil, the topography. In the mingling of irresistible spices, the fragrances of cookies and bread, they discern intricate histories. And, of course, in the sharing of food, they encounter the people who harvest and cook it.
Fine restaurants are not the destination, though they certainly can provide part of the pleasure. Instead, it is the markets, neighborhood crannies, farms, vineyards, and docks that beckon—where the heart of place lies, and therefore its best tastes.
So where are epicureans traveling these days？ All over the globe" there's no corner untouched by that great taste imperialist, imagination. Yet, in the most recent search of cooks, one thing stands out. The demand for food is not for the newest dish but for the newest old dish—the flavors and traditions that endure undiluted and undisturbed by modernization.
