ManagementDemands placed on us at work can often lead to considerable worry and discomfort、There are, however, ways of protecting ourselves from the stress we face at work、We interviewed Jane Collard, a consultant in stress management、1、In Jane Collard’s opinion, stress is becoming an increasingly common feature of the workplace、Stress is a highly individual reaction, which varies considerably from person to person, and it is difficult for some employees to avoid it、Indeed, stress is regarded by many as part of the organizational culture of our institutions: it comes with the job、Recent figures indicate that time taken off work because of stress has increased by 500 per cent since the 1950s、Undoubtedly, changes in working conditions have led to greater pressure at work at all levels、With reductions in staffing, workloads for individual employees have increased、In addition, many employees are left worrying about the security of their jobs、2、On the stress management courses that she runs, Jane Collard tries to make the trainees realise that stress in itself is not harmful、Everyone needs a certain level of stress to enable them to feel motivated and to perform effectively、A complete absence of stress can be as damaging as overstress, since it can make people lose interest in their work, and even lead to depression、The difficulties occur when the amount of stress rises above a level which is healthy for a particular individual、If this happens, the effects are very obvious and the trainees are taught to recognize the signs、Stress may be expressed physically, for example through headaches and tiredness, or through emotional problems such as depression、A person suffering from stress may also start to behave differently, and can be difficult to deal with、3、While it may not always be possible to prevent stress, there are a number of ways in which it can be controlled、The first thing that the trainees learn is how to manage their time effectively、This involves, first of all, setting realistic goals for both the short and long term、Once this framework has been established, tasks are then prioritised on a daily basis、The trainees are also reminded that when they are under pressure the less important items should be left, and they should never hesitate to delegate、Everyone is encouraged to look at ways of reducing ‘wasted time ’, for example by grouping similar tasks together or dealing with items immedkiately、4、Jane feels that one of the most useful features of the course is that it enables trainees to deal with those demands or deadlines that they regard as unreasonable、They are encouraged to avoid being defensive, but at the same time they are advised not to be afraid of saying ‘no’、They are asked to give reasons only if necessary、The training helps them to foresee difficult situations or unwanted demands, and they learn how to prepare themselves mentally、Everyone is encouraged not to get stuck in negative thought patterns, where stress can feed a circular sense of helplessness、One solution they discuss is to think of a more encouraging alternative for each negative message、They learn, for example, to remind themselves that nothing terrible happens when a demand is refused or a deadline missed、Life goes on、Questions 13-16For questions 13-16, choose the best title for each numbered paragraph from the list below、For each numbered paragraph 1-4, mark one letter (A-G) on your Answer Sheet、Do not use any letter more than once、A Higher stress levels among top managersB Coping with stress through a positive attitudeC Time lost at

right level of stress at work is important for good、19 Trainees learn that one way of limiting stress is by deciding upon、20 One of the most important parts of the course is learning how to react toA levels of performanceB shorter deadlinesC employment practicesD higher levels of sicknessE unfair demandsF successful management structureG practical targetsPART FOURQuestions 21-35·Read the text

It is a truly international commodity, and today more than 50 countries in the world grow coffee beans. (example) ______I_____. ICO organization helps coffee producers and promotes coffee conumption worldwide.ICO estimates that world production next year will reach 97.5 million bags.11.3million bags higher than the current year. (8) ____________. As the largest producing country, Brazil is particularly important in the coffee world. In 1994 Brazil was responsible for 25% of world production, Colombia was next with 13.4%, Indonesia had 7.5%, Mexico 4.7%, Guatemala 3.8% and Ethiopia and Vietnam were equal with 3.4%.Coffee is a tough crop, and can be grown in areas where it is difficult or impossible to grow other crops.

There are, however, ways of protecting ourselves from the stress we face at work. We interviewed Jane Collard, a consultant in stress management.1. In Jane Collard’s opinion, stress is becoming an increasingly common feature of the workplace. Stress is a highly individual reaction, which varies considerably from person to person, and it is difficult for some employees to avoid it. Indeed, stress is regarded by many as part of the organizational culture of our institutions: it comes with the job. Recent figures indicate that time taken off work because of stress has increased by 500 per cent since the 1950s. Undoubtedly, changes in working conditions have led to greater pressure at work at all levels. With reductions in staffing, workloads for individual employees have increased. In addition, many employees are left worrying about the security of their jobs.2. On the stress management courses that she runs, Jane Collard tries to make the trainees realise that stress in itself is not harmful. Everyone needs a certain level of stress to enable them to feel motivated and to perform effectively. A complete absence of stress can be as damaging as overstress, since it can make people lose interest in their work, and even lead to depression. The difficulties occur when the amount of stress rises above a level which is healthy for a particularindividual. If this happens, the effects are very obvious and the trainees are taught to recognize the signs. Stress may be expressed physically, for example through headaches and tiredness, or through emotional problems such as depression.A person suffering from stress may also start to behave differently, and can be difficult to deal with.3. While it may not always be possible to prevent stress, there are a number of ways in which it can be controlled. The first thing that the trainees learn is how to manage their time effectively. This involves, first of all, setting realistic goals for both the short and long term. Once this framework has been established, tasks are then prioritised on a daily basis. The trainees are also reminded that when they are under pressure the less important items should be left, and they should never hesitate to delegate. Everyone is encouraged to look at ways of reducing ‘wasted time ’, for example by grouping similar tasks together or dealing with items immedkiately.4. Jane feels that one of the most useful features of the course is that it enables trainees to deal with those demands or deadlines that they regard as unreasonable. They are encouraged to avoid being defensive, but at the same time they are advised not to be afraid of saying ‘no’. They are asked to give reasons only if necessary. The training helps them to foresee difficult situations or unwanted demands, and they learn how to prepare themselves mentally. Everyone is encouraged not to get stuck in negative thought patterns, where stress can feed a circular sense of helplessness.

It is a truly international commodity, and today more than 50 countries in the world grow coffee beans. (example) ______I_____. ICO organization helps coffee producers and promotes coffee conumption worldwide.ICO estimates that world production next year will reach 97.5 million bags.11.3 million bags higher than the current year. (8) ____________. As the largest producing country, Brazil is particularly important in the coffee world. In 1994Brazil was responsible for 25% of world production, Colombia was next with 13.4%, Indonesia had 7.5%, Mexico 4.7%, Guatemala 3.8% and Ethiopia and Vietnam were equal with 3.4%.Coffee is a tough crop, and can be grown in areas where it is difficult or impossible to grow other crops. (9) However, disease is always problem for coffee production, as we can see in some parts of South America at the moment.ICO is active in educating farmers about avoiding disease and dealing with problems when they occur.The distribution chain varies from country to country, explains Pablo Dubois. In most countries the smaller farmers sell their crop to a local trader, who then sells it on to exporters. There are, however, other distribution systems. (10) ____________. Some countries, like Vietnam, have special government marketing organizations for coffee.Coffee prices often vary greatly from one year to the next. In 1997, for example, there was a large rise in the world price, which was immediately felt by the consumer. Rising prices always result in a drop in sales, which will have a bad effect on those developing countries, which are highly dependent on foreign exchange from coffee exports. (11)____________.In the opinion of Pablo Dubois, the biggest problem for his organisation is to create greater consumer awareness of the different varieties of coffee and different ways of preparing it. (12)____________. ICO is therefore concentrating its promotional activities on Russia and China. It is also encouraging environmentally friendly coffee production, and last year’s seminar on coffeeand the environment created a lot of interest.The future looks bright for the coffee industry. It is estimated that consumption over the next few years will continue to rise steadily. New markets like Eastern Europe and China are expected to develop fast.A. As a result, the membership now represents 94% of all exporters and 60% of all importers.B. In some of these countries, this can amount to as much as 50% of all export earning.C. In North America, most consumers already have above average knowledge of the range available.D. For example, frost and wind are particularly damaging to coffee crops.E. Larger coffee growers, for example, frequently export directly.F. The main reason for this is higher Brazilian output as production recovers from weather damage to crops.G. It is cultivated in mountain regions which can only be reached by animal transport, and in other difficult areas where modern agricultural equipment cannot be used.H. This is because there is a demand for coffee in Germany, and it is also sold in the UK and in the US.I. This make the coffee industry fairly universal, according to Pablo Dubois, Head of the International Coffee Organisation (ICO), based in London.PART THREEQuestions 13-20Read the article below about stress management, and answer questions 13-20 on the opposite page.A Lesson In Stress ManagementDemands placed on us at work can often lead to considerable worry and discomfort. There are, however, ways of protecting ourselves from the stress we face at work. We interviewed Jane Collard, a consultant in stress management.1. In Jane Collard’s opinion, stress is becoming an increasingly common feature of the workplace. Stress is a highly individual reaction, which varies considerably from person to person, and it is difficult for some employees to avoid it. Indeed, stress is regarded by many as part of the organizational culture of our institutions: it comes with the job. Recent figures indicate that time taken off work because of stress has increased by 500 per cent since the 1950s. Undoubtedly, changes in working conditions have led to greater pressure at work at all levels. With reductions in staffing, workloads for individual employees have increased. In addition, many employees are left worrying about the security of their jobs.2. On the stress management courses that she runs, Jane Collard tries to make the trainees realise that stress in itself is not harmful. Everyone needs a certain level of stress to enable them to feel motivated and to perform effectively. A complete absence of stress can be as damaging as overstress, since it can make people lose interest in their work, and even lead to depression. The difficulties occur when the amount of stress rises above a level which is healthy for a particular individual. If this happens, the effects are very obvious and the trainees are taught to recognize the signs. Stress may be expressed physically, for examplethrough headaches and tiredness, or through emotional problems such as depression.A person suffering from stress may also start to behave differently, and can be difficult to deal with.3. While it may not always be possible to prevent stress, there are a number of ways in which it can be controlled. The first thing that the trainees learn is how to manage their time effectively. This involves, first of all, setting realistic goals for both the short and long term. Once this framework has been established, tasks are then prioritised on a daily basis. The trainees are also reminded that when they are under pressure the less important items should be left, and they should never hesitate to delegate. Everyone is encouraged to look at ways of reducing ‘wasted time ’, for example by grouping similar tasks together or dealing with items immedkiately.4. Jane feels that one of the most useful features of the course is that it enables trainees to deal with those demands or deadlines that they regard as unreasonable. They are encouraged to avoid being defensive, but at the same time they are advised not to be afraid of saying ‘no’. They are asked to give reasons only if necessary. The training helps them to foresee difficult situations or unwanted demands, and they learn how to prepare themselves mentally. Everyone is encouraged not to get stuck in negative thought patterns, where stress can feed a circular sense of helplessness. One solution they discuss is to think of a more encouraging alternative for each negative message. They learn, for example, to remind themselves that nothing terrible happens when a demand is refused or a deadline missed. Life goes on.Questions 13-16For questions 13-16, choose the best title for each numbered paragraph from the list below.For each numbered paragraph 1-4, mark one letter (A-G) on your Answer Sheet.Do not use any letter more than once.A Higher stress levels among top managersB Coping with stress through a positive attitudeC Time lost at work through sicknessD Causes of increased stress in the work environmentE Explanations for missed deadlinesF stress reduction through better organisationG Typical problems associated with stress13 Paragraph 114 Paragraph 215 Paragraph 316 Paragraph 4Questions 17—20Using the information in the text, complete each sentence 17-20 with a phrase A-G from the list below.For each question 17-20, mark one letter (A-G) on your Answer Sheet.Do not use any letter more than once.17 Most people agree that the recent increase in stress is due to changes in ____________.18 The trainees are taught that the right level of stress at work is important for good.19 Trainees learn that one way of limiting stress is by deciding upon.20 One of the most important parts of the course is learning how to react toA levels of performanceB shorter deadlinesC employment practicesD higher levels of sicknessE unfair demandsF successful management structureG practical targetsPART FOURQuestions 21-35·Read the text below about job prospects at the Provincial Bank.·Choose the correct word A, B, C, or, D on the opposite page to fill each gap.·For each question 21-35, mark one letter (A, B, C, or D) on your Answer Sheet.Employment Opportunities for Graduates with the Provincial BankThe Provincial Bank is one of the biggest (example) ____________ institutions in the U.K. With its 1,900 branches and 58,000 employees, it has (21) ____________ a household name.

Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET 1 by drawing a thick line acrossthe corresponding letter in the brackets.TextIt was a quarter past nine as Marie hurried into the office building where she was going to work. Her bus had inched along through heavy morning traffic, making her a few minutes late for her very first job. She decided to start out half an hour earlier the next day.Once inside the lobby, she had to stand at the elevators and wait several minutes before she could get on one going to the sixth floor. When she finally reached the office marked "King Enterprises," she knocked at the door nervously and waited. There was no answer. She tapped on the door again, but still there was no reply. From inside the next office, she could hear the sound of voices, so she opened the door and went in.Although she was sure it was the same office she had been in two weeks before when she had had the interview with Mr. King, it looked quite different now. In fact, it hardly looked like an office at all. The employees were just standing around chatting and smoking. At the far end of the room, somebody must have just told a good joke, she thought, because there was a loud burst of laughter as she came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her.Then one of the men looked at his watch, clapped his hands and said something to the others. Quickly they all went to their desks and, in a matter of seconds, everyone was hard at work. No one paid any attention to Marie. Finally she went up to theman who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this washer first day in the office. Hardly looking up from his work, he told her to have a seat and wait for Mr. King, who would arrive at any moment. Then Marie realised that the day''s work in the office began just before Mr. King arrived. Later she found out that he lived in Connecticut and came into Manhattan on the same train every morning, arriving in the office at 9:35, so that his staff knewexactly when to start working.1. Marie felt nervous when she knocked at the door because _______.A. it was her first day in a new jobB. she was a little bit late for workC. she was afraid that she had gone to the wrong placeD. there was no answer from inside the office2.

Itis a truly international commodity, and today more than 50 countries in the worldgrow coffee beans. (example) ______I_____. ICO organization helps coffee producersand promotes coffee conumption worldwide.bags.11.3million 97.5 reach will year next production world that estimates ICOmillion bags higher than the current year. (8) ____________. As the largestproducing country, Brazil is particularly important in the coffee world. In 1994Brazil was responsible for 25% of world production, Colombia was next with 13.4%,Indonesia had 7.5%, Mexico 4.7%, Guatemala 3.8% and Ethiopia and Vietnam were equalwith 3.4%.Coffee is a tough crop, and can be grown in areas where it is difficult orimpossible to grow other crops. (9) However, disease is always problem for coffeeproduction, as we can see in some parts of South America at the moment.ICO is activein educating farmers about avoiding disease and dealing with problems when theyoccur.The distribution chain varies from country to country, explains Pablo Dubois.In most countries the smaller farmers sell their crop to a local trader, who thensells it on to exporters. There are, however, other distribution systems. (10)____________. Some countries, like Vietnam, have special government marketingorganizations for coffee.Coffee prices often vary greatly from one year to the next. In 1997, for example,there was a large rise in the world price, which was immediatelyfelt by the consumer.Rising prices always result in a drop in sales, which will have a bad effect onthose developing countries, which are highly dependent on foreign exchange fromcoffee exports. (11)____________.In the opinion of Pablo Dubois, the biggest problem for his organisation isto create greater consumer awareness of the different varieties of coffee anddifferent ways of preparing it. (12)____________. ICO is therefore concentratingits promotional activities on Russia and China. It is also encouragingenvironmentally friendly coffee production, and last year's seminar on coffeeand the environment created a lot of interest.The future looks bright for the coffee industry. It is estimated thatconsumption over the next few years will continue to rise steadily. New marketslike Eastern Europe and China are expected to develop fast.A. As a result, the membership now represents 94% of all exporters and 60%of all importers.B. In some of these countries, this can amount to as much as 50% of all exportearning.C. In North America, most consumers already have above average knowledge ofthe range available.D. For example, frost and wind are particularly damaging to coffee crops.E. Larger coffee growers, for example, frequently export directly.F. The main reason for this is higher Brazilian output as production recoversfrom weather damage to crops.G. It is cultivated in mountain regions which can only be reached by animaltransport, and in other difficult areas where modern agricultural equipment cannotbe used.H. This is because there is a demand for coffee in Germany,and it is alsosold in the UK and in the US.I. This make the coffee industry fairly universal, according to Pablo Dubois,Head of the International Coffee Organisation (ICO), based in London.PART THREEQuestions 13-20Read the article below about stress management, and answer questions 13-20on the opposite page.A Lesson In Stress ManagementDemands placed on us at work can often lead to considerable worry and discomfort.There are, however, ways of protecting ourselves from the stress we face at work.We interviewed Jane Collard, a consultant in stress management.1. In Jane Collard's opinion, stress is becoming an increasingly common featureof the workplace. Stress is a highly individual reaction, which varies considerablyfrom person to person, and it is difficult for some employees to avoid it. Indeed,stress is regarded by many as part of the organizational culture of our institutions:it comes with the job. Recent figures indicate that time taken off work becauseof stress has increased by 500 per cent since the 1950s. Undoubtedly, changes inworking conditions have led to greater pressure at work at all levels. Withreductions in staffing, workloads for individual employees have increased. Inaddition, many employees are left worrying about the security of their jobs.2. On the stress management courses that she runs, Jane Collard tries to makethe trainees realise that stress in itself is not harmful. Everyone needs a certainlevel of stress to enable them to feel motivated and to perform effectively. Acomplete absence of stress can be as damaging as overstress, since it can makepeople lose interest in their work, and even lead to depression. The difficultiesparticulara for healthy is which level a above rises stress of amount the when occurindividual. If this happens, the effects are very obvious and the trainees aretaught to recognize the signs. Stress may be expressed physically, for examplethrough headaches and tiredness, or through emotional problems such as depression.A person suffering from stress may also start to behave differently, and can bedifficult to deal with.3. While it may not always be possible to prevent stress, there are a numberof ways in which it can be controlled. The first thing that the trainees learnis how to manage their time effectively. This involves, first of all, settingrealistic goals for both the short and long term. Once this framework has beenestablished, tasks are then prioritised on a daily basis. The trainees are alsoreminded that when they are under pressure the less important items should be left,and they should never hesitate to delegate. Everyone is encouraged to look at waysof reducing ‘wasted time ', for example by grouping similartasks together ordealing with items immedkiately.4. Jane feels that one of the most useful features of the course is that itenables trainees to deal with those demands or deadlines that they regard asunreasonable. They are encouraged to avoid being defensive, but at the same timethey are advised not to be afraid of saying ‘no'. They areasked to give reasonsonly if necessary. The training helps them to foresee difficult situations orunwanted demands, and they learn how to prepare themselvesmentally. Everyone isencouraged not to get stuck in negative thought patterns, where stress can feeda circular sense of helplessness. One solution they discuss is to think of a moreencouraging alternative for each negative message. They learn, for example, toremind themselves that nothing terrible happens when a demand is refused or adeadline missed. Life goes on.Questions 13-16For questions 13-16, choose the best title for each numbered paragraph fromthe list below.For each numbered paragraph 1-4, mark one letter (A-G) on your Answer Sheet.Do not use any letter more than once.A Higher stress levels among top managersB Coping with stress through a positive attitudeC Time lost at work through sicknessD Causes of increased stress in the work environmentE Explanations for missed deadlinesF stress reduction through better organisationG Typical problems associated with stress13 Paragraph 114 Paragraph 215 Paragraph 316 Paragraph 4Questions 17—20Using the information in the text, complete each sentence 17-20 with a phraseA-G from the list below.For each question 17-20, mark one letter (A-G) on your Answer Sheet.Do not use any letter more than once.17 Most people agree that the recent increase in stress is due to changes in____________.18 The trainees are taught that the right level of stress at work is importantfor good.19 Trainees learn that one way of limiting stress is bydeciding upon.20 One of the most important parts of the course is learning how to react toA levels of performanceB shorter deadlinesC employment practicesD higher levels of sicknessE unfair demandsF successful management structureG practical targetsPART FOURQuestions 21-35·Read the text below about job prospects at the ProvincialBank.·Choose the correct word A, B, C, or, D on the opposite page to fill each gap.·For each question 21-35, mark one letter (A, B, C, or D)on your Answer Sheet.Employment Opportunities for Graduates with the Provincial BankThe Provincial Bank is one of the biggest (example)____________ institutionsin the U.K. With its 1,900 branches and 58,000 employees, it has (21) ____________a household name.

It is a truly international commodity, and today more than 50 countries in the world grow coffee beans. (example) ______I_____. ICO organization helps coffee producers and promotes coffee conumption worldwide.ICO estimates that world production next year will reach 97.5 million bags.11.3million bags higher than the current year. (8) ____________. As the largest producing country, Brazil is particularly important in the coffee world. In 1994 Brazil was responsible for 25% of world production, Colombia was next with 13.4%, Indonesia had 7.5%, Mexico 4.7%, Guatemala 3.8% and Ethiopia and Vietnam were equal with 3.4%.Coffee is a tough crop, and can be grown in areas where it is difficult or impossible to grow other crops. (9) However, disease is always problem for coffee production, as we can see in some parts of South America at the moment.ICO is active in educating farmers about avoiding disease and dealing with problems when they occur.The distribution chain varies from country to country, explains Pablo Dubois. In most countries the smaller farmers sell their crop to a local trader, who then sells it on to exporters. There are, however, other distribution systems. (10) ____________. Some countries, like Vietnam, have special government marketing organizations for coffee.Coffee prices often vary greatly from one year to the next. In 1997, for example, there was a large rise in the world price, which was immediately felt by the consumer. Rising prices always result in a drop in sales, which will have a bad effect on those developing countries, which are highly dependent on foreign exchange from coffee exports. (11)____________.In the opinion of Pablo Dubois, the biggest problem for his organisation is to create greater consumer awareness of the different varieties of coffee and different ways of preparing it. (12)____________. ICO is therefore concentratingits promotional activities on Russia and China. It is also encouraging environmentally friendly coffee production, and last year’s seminar on coffee and the environment created a lot of interest.The future looks bright for the coffee industry. It is estimated that consumption over the next few years will continue to rise steadily. New markets like Eastern Europe and China are expected to develop fast.A. As a result, the membership now represents 94% of all exporters and 60% of all importers.B. In some of these countries, this can amount to as much as 50% of all export earning.C. In North America, most consumers already have above average knowledge of the range available.D. For example, frost and wind are particularly damaging to coffee crops.E. Larger coffee growers, for example, frequently export directly.F. The main reason for this is higher Brazilian output as production recovers from weather damage to crops.G. It is cultivated in mountain regions which can only be reached by animal transport, and in other difficult areas where modern agricultural equipment cannot be used.H. This is because there is a demand for coffee in Germany, and it is also sold in the UK and in the US.I. This make the coffee industry fairly universal, according to Pablo Dubois, Head of the International Coffee Organisation (ICO), based in London.PART THREEQuestions 13-20Read the article below about stress management, and answer questions 13-20 on the opposite page.A Lesson In Stress ManagementDemands placed on us at work can often lead to considerable worry and discomfort. There are, however, ways of protecting ourselves from the stress we face at work. We interviewed Jane Collard, a consultant in stress management.1. In Jane Collard’s opinion, stress is becoming an increasingly common feature of the workplace. Stress is a highly individual reaction, which varies considerably from person to person, and it is difficult for some employees to avoid it. Indeed, stress is regarded by many as part of the organizational culture of our institutions: it comes with the job. Recent figures indicate that time taken off work because of stress has increased by 500 per cent since the 1950s. Undoubtedly, changes in working conditions have led to greater pressure at work at all levels. With reductions in staffing, workloads for individual employees have increased. In addition, many employees are left worrying about the security of their jobs.2. On the stress management courses that she runs, Jane Collard tries to make the trainees realise that stress in itself is not harmful. Everyone needs a certain level of stress to enable them to feel motivated and to perform effectively. A complete absence of stress can be as damaging as overstress, since it can make people lose interest in their work, and even lead to depression. The difficulties occur when the amount of stress rises above a level which is healthy for a particularindividual. If this happens, the effects are very obvious and the trainees are taught to recognize the signs. Stress may be expressed physically, for example through headaches and tiredness, or through emotional problems such as depression.A person suffering from stress may also start to behave differently, and can be difficult to deal with.3. While it may not always be possible to prevent stress, there are a number of ways in which it can be controlled. The first thing that the trainees learn is how to manage their time effectively. This involves, first of all, setting realistic goals for both the short and long term. Once this framework has been established, tasks are then prioritised on a daily basis. The trainees are also reminded that when they are under pressure the less important items should be left, and they should never hesitate to delegate. Everyone is encouraged to look at ways of reducing ‘wasted time ’, for example by grouping similar tasks together or dealing with items immedkiately.4. Jane feels that one of the most useful features of the course is that it enables trainees to deal with those demands or deadlines that they regard as unreasonable. They are encouraged to avoid being defensive, but at the same time they are advised not to be afraid of saying ‘no’. They are asked to give reasons only if necessary. The training helps them to foresee difficult situations or unwanted demands, and they learn how to prepare themselves mentally. Everyone is encouraged not to get stuck in negative thought patterns, where stress can feed a circular sense of helplessness. One solution they discuss is to think of a more encouraging alternative for each negative message. They learn, for example, toremind themselves that nothing terrible happens when a demand is refused or a deadline missed. Life goes on.Questions 13-16For questions 13-16, choose the best title for each numbered paragraph from the list below.For each numbered paragraph 1-4, mark one letter (A-G) on your Answer Sheet.Do not use any letter more than once.A Higher stress levels among top managersB Coping with stress through a positive attitudeC Time lost at work through sicknessD Causes of increased stress in the work environmentE Explanations for missed deadlinesF stress reduction through better organisationG Typical problems associated with stress13 Paragraph 114 Paragraph 215 Paragraph 316 Paragraph 4Questions 17—20Using the information in the text, complete each sentence 17-20 with a phrase A-G from the list below.For each question 17-20, mark one letter (A-G) on your Answer Sheet.Do not use any letter more than once.17 Most people agree that the recent increase in stress is due to changes in ____________.18 The trainees are taught that the right level of stress at work is important for good.19 Trainees learn that one way of limiting stress is by deciding upon.20 One of the most important parts of the course is learning how to react toA levels of performanceB shorter deadlinesC employment practicesD higher levels of sicknessE unfair demandsF successful management structureG practical targetsPART FOURQuestions 21-35·Read the text below about job prospects at the Provincial Bank.·Choose the correct word A, B, C, or, D on the opposite page to fill each gap.·For each question 21-35, mark one letter (A, B, C, or D) on your Answer Sheet.Employment Opportunities for Graduates with the Provincial BankThe Provincial Bank is one of the biggest (example) ____________ institutions in the U.K. With its 1,900 branches and 58,000 employees, it has (21) ____________ a household name.

Her bus had inched along through heavy morning traffic, making her a few minutes late for her very first job. She decided to start out half an hour earlier the next day.Once inside the lobby, she had to stand at the elevators and wait several minutes before she could get on one going to the sixth floor. When she finally reached the office marked "King Enterprises," she knocked at the door nervously and waited. There was no answer. She tapped on the door again, but still there was no reply. From inside the next office, she could hear the sound of voices, so she opened the door and went in.Although she was sure it was the same office she had been in two weeks before when she had had the interview with Mr. King, it looked quite different now. In fact, it hardly looked like an office at all. The employees were just standing around chatting and smoking. At the far end of the room, somebody must have just told a good joke, she thought, because there was a loud burst of laughter as she came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her.Then one of the men looked at his watch, clapped his hands and said something to the others. Quickly they all went to their desks and, in a matter of seconds, everyone was hard at work. No one paid any attention to Marie. Finally she went up to theman who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this washer first day in the office. Hardly looking up from his work, he told her to have a seat and wait for Mr. King, who would arrive at any moment. Then Marie realised that the day''s work in the office began just before Mr. King arrived. Later she found out that he lived in Connecticut and came into Manhattan on the same train every morning, arriving in the office at 9:35, so that his staff knewexactly when to start working.1.
