A pilot cannot fly a plane by sight alone In many conditions, such as flying at night andlanding in dense fog, a pilot must use radar, an alternative way of navigating Since human eyesare not very good at determining speeds of approaching objects, radar can show a pilot how fastnearby planes are moving

The basic principle of radar is exemplified by what happens when one shouts in a cave Theecho of the sounds against the walls helps a person determine the size of the cave With radar,however, the waves are radio waves instead of sound waves Radio waves travel at the speed oflight, about 300,000 kilometers in one second A radar set sends out a short burst of radiationwaves Then it receives the echoes produced when the waves bounce off objects By determiningthe time it takes for the echoes to return to the radar set, a trained technician can determine thedistance between the radar set and other objects The word “radar”, in fact, gets its name fromthe term “radio detection and ranging” “Ranging” is the term for detection of the distancebetween an object and the radar set Besides being of critical importance to pilots, radar isessential for air traffic control, tracking ships at sea, and for tracking weather systems andstorms

Experiments have shown that in selecting personnel for a job, interviewing is at best ahindrance, and may even cause harm These studies have disclosed that the judgments ofinterviewers differ markedly and bear little or no relationship to the adequacy of job applicants

Of the many reasons why this should be the case, three in particular stand out The first reason isrelated to an error of judgment known as the halo effect If a person has one noticeable goodtrait, their other characteristics will be judged as better than they really are Thus, an individualwho dresses smartly and shows self-confidence is likely to be judged capable of doing a job wellregardless of his or her real ability

Interviewers are also prejudiced by an effect called the primacy effect This error occurswhen interpretation of later information is distorted by earlier connected information Hence, in

an interview situation, the interviewer spends most of the interview trying to confirm theimpression given by the candidate in the first few moments Studies have repeatedlydemonstrated that such an impression is unrelated to the aptitude of the applicant

The phenomenon known as the contrast effect also skews the judgment of interviewers

A suitable candidate may be underestimated because he or she contrasts with a previous onewho appears exceptionally intelligent Likewise, an average candidate who is preceded by onewho gives a weak showing may be judged as more suitable than he or she really is

Since interviews as a form of personnel selection have been shown to be inadequate, other selection procedures have been devised which more accurately predict candidate suitability Ofthe various tests devised, the predictor which appears to do this most successfully is cognitiveability measured by a variety of verbal and spatial tests

A effects of interviewing on job applicants

A can easily be altered

B is the one that stays with the interviewer

Cooperation is the common endeavor of two or more people to perform a task or reach ajointly cherished goal Like competition and conflict, there are different forms of cooperation,based on group organization and attitudes

In the first form, known as primary cooperation, group and individual fuse The groupcontains nearly all of each individual’s life The rewards of the group’s work are shared with

Trang 14

each member There is an interlocking identity of individual, group and task performed Meansand goals become one, for cooperation itself is valued.

While primary cooperation is most often characteristic of preliterate societies, secondarycooperation is characteristic of many modern societies In secondary cooperation, individualsdevote only part of their lives to the group Cooperation itself is not a value Most members ofthe group feel loyalty, but the welfare of the group is not the first consideration Membersperform tasks so that they can separately enjoy the fruits of their cooperation in the form ofsalary, prestige, or power Business offices and professional athletic teams are examples ofsecondary cooperation

In the third type, called tertiary cooperation or accommodation, latent conflict underlies theshared work The attitudes of the cooperating parties are purely opportunistic: the organization isloose and fragile Accommodation involves common means to achieve antagonistic goals: itbreaks down when the common means cease to aid each party in reaching its goals This is not,

Psychologists are interested in the reasons why some people like taking part in risky sports.When they studied people who were learning to jump from a plane with a parachute, they foundthat parachutists’ bodies produced large amounts of two hormones, adrenaline and noradrenaline, just before they made their jump

These hormones help to prepare us for any sudden activity Adrenaline increases the heartrate and provides more sugar for the muscles, while nor does adrenaline make us react morequickly However, nor adrenaline also stimulates apart of the brain which controls feelings ofpleasure Some psychologists have concluded that it is a feeling of pleasure caused by thishormone which makes certain people want to participate in dangerous sports

Another possible reason is the level of arousal in part of the brain According to somepsychologists, the brain tries to maintain a certain level of arousal They believe that people who

Trang 21

normally have a low level of arousal look for excitement and new experiences in order tostimulate themselves, whereas people who usually have a high level of arousal try to avoid risksand unfamiliar situations in order not to become overexcited If the psychologists are right,people with a low arousal are the ones who enjoy participating in dangerous sports and activities.

It is thought that people with low levels of arousal have a slower-reacting nervous systemthan people with higher arousal levels It may therefore be possible to find out your level ofarousal by testing your nervous system A quick way of doing this is to put some lemon juice onyour tongue If you produce a lot of saliva, your nervous system has been affected by the lemonand so you probably have a high level of arousal; if you produce little of saliva, you probablyhave a low arousal level If you have a low level, you might enjoy taking part in risky sports.However, this does not mean that you have to try parachuting!

Question 41: Why did the parachutists’ bodies produce a lot of adrenaline and nor adrenalinebefore they jumped from a plane?

A This is a natural reaction which helps to prepare one for sudden activity

B Because they had high arousal levels

C It is a natural reaction which guards them against the effects of accidents

D Because they had taken drugs which led to the production of these two hormones

Question 42: What two possible reasons are given for some people’s desire to participate indangerous sports?

A A lack of common sense, and a high level of arousal

B A low level of arousal, and an inborn desire for adventure

C The pleasure that results from the production of nor adrenaline, and a low level ofarousal

D A desire to show off, and a lack of common sense

Question 43: What does the brain try to maintain, according to some psychologists?

A A high temperature B A low temperature

C A certain level of arousal D A sense of safety

Question 44 : Why do psychologists believe that people with a high level of arousal try to avoiddanger?

A Because they already have the level of excitement which the brain tries to maintain

B Because they are more aware of the dangers involved

C Because they already have enough of the two hormones, adrenaline and nor adrenaline

D Because they would not be able to cope with accidents

Question 45: What is shown by putting lemon juice on your tongue?

A It shows that you have a high level of arousal if no saliva is produced

B It indicates your level of arousal by amount of saliva that is produced

C It can indicate whether your saliva is more acidic or more alkaline

MODERN FASHION TRENDS Fashion today is changing faster than ever, influenced by a variety of forces Clearly, many

of these changes are dictated by music-related cultural movements like hip-hop, boy bands, orgrunge The stars of these music genres are idolized, and their clothing choices directly influencethe fashion of their fans who wish to imitate them Another undeniable influence on what fashion

is "cool" is technology Technology that can be worn is now and will become an ever moreimportant part of the "look" of fashionable young people There are many other trends, amongthem retro or vintage fashion, and so-called disposable fashion

Trang 28

The hip-hop revolution of the 1970s and '80s brought a whole new look to our attention, alook for an American city culture that made a statement Modern hip-hop clothes, however, areoften produced by successful, big-name fashion designers, and are quite expensive In fact, manyhip-hop artists such as Eminem, Kanye West, and others have their own lines of hip-hopclothing The essentials of the modern hip-hop look are gold chains, boots or kicks (slang forsneakers), a bandana tied around the head, often with a cap on top, and large T-shirts The baggylook of decades gone by has been replaced by a look that includes polo shirts and tighter denimjeans.

Another trendy, cutting-edge movement in the world of fashion is technology you wear, andthe blending of technology with clothing More and more, people are afraid to be without a cellphone, a computer, or Internet access at any time of the day or night Wearable technology helpspeople keep those crucial connections to the world open, while at the same time giving them adistinctive look Clip-on MP3 players with headphones, "hands-free" phones and earpieces, andpersonal digital assistants (PDAs) are just a few of the ever more visible portable technologycomponents that are part of the look The ultimate in technology-friendly clothing, the solar-powered jacket can now provide the electricity needed to keep all these gadgets running

The retro or vintage style of clothing brings trends from past decades back into style.Grunge was a style of music born in the Seattle area in the 1990s Grunge fans stayed away fromsynthetic fabrics, preferring flannel shirts, stone-washed jeans, and rock T-shirts They preferreddark colors like greens, dark purples, or browns For footwear, grunge fans wore Dr Martens-style shoes and boots or high-top sneakers Although the grunge music craze also ended in the'90s, a modern retro fashion trend is taking its cue from grunge-era clothing Modern grungefashion is similar in many ways, but it's much less baggy and sloppy than it was in the '90s H&M, a chain of Swedish clothing stores, is the name most often connected with the newtrend in youth fashion known as disposable fashion It's clothing so cheap that you don't mindbuying it and wearing it only several times, perhaps, before discarding it Disposable fashion isoften brightly colored and stylish, but low in price The trend, which reportedly started in Japan,grew popular in Europe, and is taking root in America, shows no signs of slowing down

What will the future of fashion look like? Well, technology is sure to remain a growing part

of fashion, with ever smaller cell phones, computers, PDAs, and other wearable gadgets Allaround the world, more people are wearing hip-hop fashions than ever before No longerexclusive to urban youth or even the United States, hip-hop will remain a popular global fashionfor years to come Retro fashions from the '80s and '90s, including the grunge look, seem to begrowing in popularity, and disposable fashion is a big hit that won't end soon And, I'm sure that

Telecommunicating is a form of computer communication between employees’ homes andoffices For employees whose jobs involve sitting at a terminal or word processor entering data

or typing reports, the location of the computer is of no consequence If the machine cancommunicate over telephone lines, when the work is completed, employees can dial the office

computer from a distant site and transmit the material to their employers A recent survey in USA

Today estimates that there are approximately 8.7 million telecommuters But although the

numbers are rising annually, the trend does not appear to be as significant as predicted when

Business Week published "The Portable Executive" as its cover story a few years ago Why hasn't

telecommuting become more popular?

Clearly, change simply takes time But in addition, there has been active resistance on thepart of many managers These executives claim that supervising the telecommuters in a largework force scattered across the country would be too difficult, or, at least, systems for managingthem are not yet developed, thereby complicating the manager's responsibilities

It is also true that employees who are given the option of telecommuting are often reluctant

to accept the opportunity Most people feel that they need regular interaction with a group, andmany are concerned that they will not have the same consideration for advancement if they arenot more visible in the office setting Some people feel that even when a space in their homes isset aside as a work area, they never really get away from the office

Although they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamins, minerals, and high-quality protein,eggs also contain a high level of blood cholesterol, one of the major causes of heart diseases.One egg yolk, in fact, contains a little more than two-thirds of the suggested daily cholesterollimit This knowledge has caused egg sales to plummet in recent years, which in turn has broughtabout the development of several alternatives to eating regular eggs One alternative is to eatsubstitute eggs These egg substitutes are not really eggs, but they look somewhat like eggs whenthey are cooked They have the advantage of having low cholesterol rates, and they can bescrambled or used in baking One disadvantage, however, is that they are not good for frying,poaching, or boiling A second alternative to regular eggs is a new type of egg, sometimes called'designer' eggs These eggs are produced by hens that are fed low-fat diets consisting ofingredients such as canola oil, flax, and rice bran In spite of their diets, however, these hens

Trang 35

produce eggs that contain the same amount of cholesterol as regular eggs Yet, the producers ofthese eggs claim that eating their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in humans

Egg producers claim that their product has been portrayed unfairly They cite scientificstudies to back up their claim And, in fact, studies on the relationship between eggs and humancholesterol levels have brought mixed results It may be that it is not the type of egg that is themain determinant of cholesterol but the person who is eating the eggs Some people may be moresensitive to cholesterol derived from food than other people In fact, there is evidence that certaindietary fats stimulate the body's production of blood cholesterol Consequently, while it stillmakes sense to limit one's intake of eggs, even designer eggs, it seems that doing this withoutregulating dietary fat will probably not help reduce the blood cholesterol level
