Reading Comprehension (4×5=20)Most of us work in organizations that are hierarchical, vertical and functionally defined. The organization chart for the typical company resembles a pyramid and provides a clear view of where everyone fits in relation to eachother and will also normally reflect reporting relationships. In essence, the conventional organization structure is little changed since the armies of the Roman Empire developed the precursor of the pyramid organization.While there can be no doubting that this organizational model has served uswell in the past, there are now serious questions to be asked about itsappropriateness for the changed conditions that confront us today. Of the many changes that have taken place in the marketing environment, perhaps the biggestis the focus upon “speed”. Because of shortening product life cycles, time to market becomes ever more critical. Similarly, the dramatic growth ofjust-in-time( JIT) practices in manufacturing means that those companies wishing to supply into that environment have to develop systems capable of responding rapidly and flexibly to customers’ delivery requirements. Indeed, thesame is true in almost every market today as organizations seek to reduce their inventories and hence a critical requirement of a supplier is that they are capableof rapid response.The challenge to every business is to become a responsive organization. The organization must respond to changes in the market with products and servicesthat provide innovative solutions to customers’ problems; it must respond to volatile demands and it must be able to provide high levels of flexibility in delivery.What will be the distinguishing features of the responsive organization? Onething is certain: it will not resemble today’s functionally focused business.Choose the best answer according to the passage:1.The reporting relations reflected in the organization chart indicates thatthe traditional organization is not ( )A. hierarchicalB.verticalC. functionally definedD. customer-oriented2. Which of the following is wrong? ( )A. The conventional organization structure has to be changedB. The conventional organization structure has been changedC. The conventional organization structure served us well in the pastD. Situations changed and the conventional organization structure shouldbe adjusted.3. Which is the greatest change that market has experienced? ( )A. Customer’s preference.B.Expectation for speed.C. Increased supplies.D. Volatile demands.4. Organizations today have to reduce the time of sending a product tomarket substantially mainly because ( )A. customers change taste often.B. transport conditions improved greatly.C. there are many competitors in the market who sell similar products.D. the span from the time a product is developed until the time the productfalls into disuse is greatly decreased.5. Which of the following is NOT the feature of a responsive organization?( )A.customer-based.B.function-based.rmation-based.D.Relationship-based。

Reading ComprehensionCEV A Logistics is making the “logistics” part of its name outdated, unless one stretches the term to mean more than traditional transportation and warehousing. What the provider does for the Michelin Tire Group in the U.S. is a prime (主要的) example of that trend.Under its former name of TNT Logistics, CEV A has an extensive history of working with Michelin around the world. Five years ago, Michelin North America signed a contract with the then-parent of TNT, TPG N.V., handing over day-to-day operation of the client’s tire distribution centers throughout the continent. That deal came seven years after inception (开始、开端) of a similar logistics services contract between the two companies in the United Kingdom.CEV A came into being last year, when TNT N.V. sold off its contract logistics unit to Apollo Management, a New York-based private equity firm. In the process, the company maintained the specialized services that it had built up over the years on behalf of tire manufactures. Today, CEV A has tire contracts in 17 countries on five continents.In the U.S., certain services that CEV A performs for Michelin on a regional basis exceed the boundaries of what some might consider logistics. Gina Moon is customer service associate with the Michelin Tire Group in Greenville, S. C. , U. S. headquarters of the global concern. One of her accounts at that location is Utility Trailer, which provides specialized equipment to move tires toautomobile manufacturers.Michelin ships to five Utility Trailer locations in the U.S., two in Virginia and one each in Utah, Alabama and Arkansas. Shipment volume is around 250,000 units per year, according to Moon. At the facilities, however, it’s CEVA that is responsible of receiving and mounting the tires on wheels. From there, the components move to the assembly lines of various customers.CEV A manages the transportation end of the program as well, although it’s Michelin that secures the appropriate trucker. Blue Trucking is a major hauler (运输者) of shipments to the Independence facility because of its operations in Virginia. Swift Transportation Inc. and Old Dominion Fright Line Inc. are also regular providers of over-the–road service for Michelin.CEV A performs the tire-mounting service not just for Michelin, but for other major tire manufacturers as well, including Goodyear, Bridgestone and Yokohama Tire. In all cases, the operation requires special handing so as not to scratch the pristine (崭新的) wheels that are intended for new cars. “We don’t have a lot of issues like that,” says Moon. “They are very good at what they do.”1. Which of the following statements about CEV A Logistics is NOT correct?A. It cooperates with the Michelin Tire Group in the U.S.B. It works with TPG N.V.C. To CEVA Logistics, “logistics” means more than traditional transportation and warehousing.D. It came into being last year.2. TNT is ().A. a company in the U.K.B. the then-parent of MichelinC. a New York-based private equity firmD. the descendant of TPG N.V.3. Why is Gina Moon mentioned in Paragraph 4 and 5?A. Because she is customer service associate with the Michelin Tire Group in Greenville, S.C.B. Because one of her accounts at that location is Utility Trailer.C. Because it’s an example showing that certai n services that CEV A performs exceed the boundaries of what some might consider logistics.D. Because Utility Trailer provides specialized equipment to move tires to automobile manufacturers.4. As mentioned in the last paragraph but one, which company secures the appropriate trucker?A. CEV AB. Swift Transportation Inc.C. Blue TruckingD Michelin5. All are tire manufactures EXCEPT ().A. Old Dominion Freight Line Inc.B. MichelinC. GoodyearD. YokohamaIII.
