Over the last ten years, the number of people entering managerial roles -------- increased

significantly. Managers in virtually all kinds of industries are assuming increasing responsibility while still
ensuring that they -------- their routine requirements.
142. A. meet
The role is expanding but is often made more difficult because of the lack of management training
received. A recently retired management consultant once said, “Most managers are promoted because of
their expertise. And it is probable that for every one manager who has received professional training, there
are ten who've had no formal training.” It is inevitable that managers are faced with many issues and

problems -------- a daily basis. A professor
143. on
who also heads a leading management consulting company argues that organizations seek to recruit
talented individuals without realizing that talent can be difficult to manage. Managers have to work with a
range of people: the talented, the team players, those who handle stress well and those who don't.

Accounting Module Design
Attachment: Source Code.txt

Dear Jacob,
Greetings! I hope all is well. The programming team has been working very hard on the program design
for the accounting software you have assigned to us. We are proud to say that the completed design of this
software is ready for you to review.
We want to thank you for your understanding and patience for granting us extra time to complete the job
after the deadline last Friday. I believe you will agree that the wait was worthwhile. The new design meets
your technical specifications with the capabilities to interface with third party software and scalability to
support different languages. One minor issue about the design of the software is that the file size is larger
than what you were expecting. I hope this does not affect your final plans for packaging and marketing the
product.
I have attached the source code for your perusal. Please feel free to contact me for any clarification after
your review.
Thanks,
Linda Russell
161. Why did Ms. Russell write the e-mail?To ask to review the work that has been completed

163. According to the e-mail, what could cause a problem?The packaging of the product
Questions 164 through 166 refer to the following report.
The stock market took a deep fall despite heavy trading today. Within a short time after the trading bell
rang, major indexes dipped furiously, dropping a 2% due to unemployment strains. Adding to that, a few
selected blue chip stocks performed poorly after SteelSoft made a decision to invest. SteelSoft quoted
unpredicted low earnings as the main motivation for this decision. Across the Stock Market, these stocks
took a dip of about 4%.
Most stocks suffered today by the end of the trading day. Blue chip stocks were not the only victims.
Technology stocks were the worst hit as growing concerns about these ‘empty’ technology companies
without validated business plans are getting listed. These companies listed had their stocks at their highest
peaks, with 500% growth, when the Internet craze started.
Investors are now looking for good business models in these technology companies. Meanwhile, things
were not looking bright for the stock market in a poll conducted at the end of the trading day. Most traders
had the opinion that stocks will dip further in the next few weeks.

164. What is the general consensus of the stock performance today?Most stocks took a pounding.
165. What is mentioned about technology stocks?They were the most affected in today's trading.
166. What prediction is being made by the traders?They suspect that stocks are due for a further dip.

Questions 176-180 refer to the following article.

Unemployment rate drops to 5-month low
America's employers increased hiring in March, driving the unemployment rate down to a five-month
low of 4.4%. It was a surprisingly strong performance in an economy that has otherwise shown signs
of sluggishness recently.
The new snapshot, released by the Labor Department today, also showed that the companies expand
their payrolls by 180,000 employees in March, the most since December. Workers also saw their
paychecks get bigger. The fresh figures suggested that companies are not feeling a need to
dramatically decrease hiring in the face of the slower overall economic activity and the deep housing
slump.
The report was stronger than the economist expecting. They were calling to add around 135,000 jobs
in March and for the unemployment rate to actually edge up to 4.6%. The 4.4% unemployment rate,
which dropped down a notch from 4.5% in February, matched the rate in October.
Jobs gains in March were fairly widespread, except for the struggling manufacturing sector, which
continued to cut jobs for the ninth month in a row; factories cut 16,000 in March alone. Some business
services also trimmed jobs, by 7,000 last month.
Construction companies, after suffering heavy job losses in February in part due to unfavorable winter
weather, bulked up in March. They added 56,000 positions last month, the most in just over a year.

Retailers added nearly 36,000 jobs last month. Education and health-care services expanded
employment by 54,000. Leisure and hospitality picked up 21,000 jobs, while the government added
23,000.
176. Why is the recent drop in unemployment rate surprising?Because the economy is still struggling
177. What can be inferred about the economists?They were skeptical about employment prospects.
178. Which industry is having difficulty in terms of employment?Manufacturing industry
179. What is true about construction industry? They cut many jobs in February.
180. The word “suggested” in paragraph 2, line 4 is closest in meaning to -------.indicated

January 2nd
Dear Ms. Wendel:
I understand that you are in charge of the fundraising events for the Heart and Stroke Research Fund of
Central Canada. My colleague, Jessica, suggested that I contact you about getting some brochures for our
office. We need information on the half marathon that is taking place in Toronto on the weekend of July
lst-3rd.
When I looked at the Heart and Stroke website, I noticed that your name was among the female runners

who finished in the top ten last year. Jessica was surprised to hear that in addition to managing the
fundraiser, you also participated in the race. You must be in excellent shape! Are you running this year?
I would appreciate your sending some brochures for the center. I'd like to know more about the race
myself. I've been thinking about entering, but I'm not sure if I am ready to run a half marathon. I think I
should start with a ten-kilometer run. Currently I run about 20 kilometers each week.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Best Wishes,

Subject: Marathon Brochures
Hi Kandy,
Thank you for your letter. It was fun participating in the race last year. At first when my co-workers
decided to do the run I wasn't interested. However, within a few weeks of their training I noticed how
much more energy they had. That's when I decided to join them. It was a good experience, but
unfortunately I will not be running in this year's event. I pulled a muscle in my leg when I was golfing
this summer. You should give this run a try, though. It took me about 6 months to train for the half
marathon. It will probably take you half of that since you have some running experience already.
I sent some brochures to the Health Center today. Thank you for your support of our cause. Last year we
raised $400,000 in Toronto, and this year our goal is to double that amount.
Thanks again,
Vanessa Wendel
Fundraising Supervisor
181. Why did Miller write this letter?To order some brochures
182. How far will participants in the July race have to run?A half marathon
183. Why isn't Wendel running at this year's event?She has a sore leg.
184. If Miller started training immediately, when would she be ready for the run according to

Wendel?By March
185. How much money do they want to raise at the Toronto running event this year?$800,000

Hi Kathy,
I saw this ad today and thought you would be interested. You have exactly the work experience they are
looking for, and the office is close to your apartment. That new car you were talking about buying
wouldn't be necessary. The position is with a reputable company, too. My cousin Don Wade is the chair of
the board. It's too bad you can't make it to my brother's wedding. Don will be there, and I could have
introduced you.
If you decide to apply, let me know, I can at least send Don an e-mail and give a personal reference to him
for you. He is usually in charge of conducting the interviews.
On the other hand, I haven't heard from you in a few weeks, so maybe you have already found some
work. If you do apply, don't forget to attach your résumé after you fill in the online application.
Take care,

NOTICE

The four parking garages for Mansfield Towers will be closed at various times during the last three weeks
of June for cleaning and repainting. Please make alternative arrangements for parking during this period.
Make sure to inform the receptionist in the lobby if you are expecting clients from out of town in June.
We will issue temporary parking passes for the garage at 5 th and Main for our clients. These passes can be
purchased for a fee of $2.00 a day during the month of June, but are reserved for regular clients, not
employees. There are five spots available for these clients, and these will be assigned on a reservation
basis only.
Note: Parking on Green St. or Howe Ave. is strictly prohibited. Cars that are illegally parked will be
ticketed and towed. For information about other local parking garages, call the city help line at 800-5559000.

MESSAGE: Eva Pederson called this morning. She read a notice in the lobby today, and is concerned
about parking for the upcoming conference in mid June. She said that at least 50 potential clients have
already committed to the conference and about 30 more have not yet responded to the invitation. She is
expecting at least 60 people or more. She wants to know where these people are going to park since the
parking garage will be closed. Eva thinks the Calvin St. parking garage is open on the weekends, but it's
at least a ten-minute walk to the conference room. This doesn't give a very good first impression
considering these may one day be important clients. Call her with any ideas.

garage?They aren't current clients.

Re:
Itinerary
To Whom It May Concern,
Below you will find my travel itinerary. Again, I'm sorry that I wasn't able to book my trip for the
weekend of the 3rd as you requested. That weekend would have been perfect for me as well. I leave Tokyo
at 4 p.m. on the 10th. Unless I hear from you before I leave, I will assume that one of you will meet me at
the airport with a sign. I have never been to Tokyo before, so I would prefer not to have to hire a taxi or
find my own way to the hotel. I look forward to discussing franchise opportunities and to meeting all of
you.
I will have my checkbook with me in case we work out a deal right away.
Thank you,
Kit-ken Lim
P.S. I'll be wearing a green hat and a long black coat.
