听力原文： The purpose of communication is to get your message across to others. This is a process that involves both the sender of the message and the receiver. This process leaves room for errors, with messages often misinterpreted by one or more of the parties involved. In fact, a message is successful only when both the sender and the receiver perceive it in the same way. By successfully getting your message across, you convey your thoughts and ideas effectively.
In a recent survey of recruiters from companies with more than 50,000 employees, communication skills were cited as the single most important decisive factor in choosing managers. The survey points out those communication skills, including written and oral presentations, as well as an ability to work with others, are the main factors contributing to job success.
In spite of the increasing importance placed on communication skills, many individuals continue to struggle with this, unable to communicate their thoughts and ideas effectively. This inability makes it nearly impossible for them to compete effectively in the workplace.
Getting your message across is paramount to progressing. To do this, you must understand what your message is, what audience you are sending it to, and how it will be perceived. You must also weigh in the circumstances surrounding your communications.

Recently, however, P&G broke with this longstanding tradition. Ariel, a P&G laundry detergent, was born overseas, and is a familiar sight on store shelves in Europe and Latin America. Now bilingual packages of Ariel Ultra, a super concentrated cleaner, are appearing on supermarket shelves in Los Angeles.
Ariel's appearance in the United States reflects demographic (人口学的) changes making Hispanics (西班牙裔) the nation's fastest growing ethnic group. Ariel is a hit with this population. In fact, many Mexican immigrants living in Southern California have been "importing" Ariel from Tijuana, Mexico. "Hispanics knew this product and wanted it," says P&G spokeswoman Marie Salvado. "We realized that we couldn't convince them to buy our other laundry detergents." P&G hopes that non-Hispanic consumers will give Ariel a try too.
Ariel's already strong presence in Europe may provide a springboard for the company to expand into other markets as well. Recently P&G bought Rakona Czechoslovakia's top detergent(洗涤剂) maker. Ariel, currently a top seller in Germany, is likely to be one of the first new brands to appear in Czech supermarkets. And Ariel is not the only foreign idea that the company hopes to transplant back to its home territory. Cinch, an all-purpose spray cleaner similar to popular European products, is currently being test marketed in California and Arizona. Traditionally Americains have used separate cleaners for different types of surfaces, but market research shows that American preferences are becoming more like those in other countries.
Insiders note that this new reverse flow of innovation reflects more sweeping changes at Procter Gamble. The firm has hired many new Japanese, German, and Mexican managers who view P &G's business not as a one-way flow of American ideas, but a two-way exchange with other markets. Says Bonita Austin of the investment firm Wertheim Schroeder: "When you met with P &G's top managers years ago, you wouldn't have seen a single foreign face. ' Today, "they could even be in the majority.
As Procter & Gamble has found, the United States is no longer an isolated market. Americans are more open than ever before to buying foreign made products and to selling U. S. made products overseas.
According to the passage, which of the following is true？
A．Procter & Gamble has to change its one-way flow tradition because of the increased number of its foreign managers.
B．In spite of market changes, Procter & Gamble still sticks to its longstanding tiadition of one way flow innovation.
C．The brands of Pampers, Crest, Ariel, and Cinch reflect the one-way flow tradition of Procter Gamble.
D．Today one may meet more foreign faces in Procter & Gamble than years ago.
听力原文： Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which products and services that are in limited supply are rationed among buyers. The price system of the United States is a very complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought and sold in the economy as well as those of a myriad of services, including labor, professional, transportation, and public utility services. The interrelation ships of all these prices make up the "system" of prices. The price of any particular product or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else.
If one were to ask a group of randomly selected individuals to define "price", many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product
or service or, in other words, that price is the money value of a product or service as agreed upon in a market transaction. This definition is, of course, valid as far as it goes. For a complete understanding of a price in any particular transaction, much more than the amount of money involved must be known. Both the buyer and the seller should be familiar with not only the money amount, but with the amount and quality of the product or service to be exchanged, the time and place at which the exchange will take place and payment will be made, the form. of money to be used, the credit terms and discounts that apply to the transaction, guarantees on the product or service, delivery terms, return privileges, and other factors. In other words, both buyers and sellers should be fully aware of all the factors that comprise the total "package" being exchanged for the asked, for amount of money in order that they may evaluate a given price.

B．The complexities of the price system.
