Listening Comprehension

Section A


(1 ) The International Labor Organization says the
number of people without jobs is increasing. In its
latest update on global employment trends, the agency
says projections of the number of unemployed people
this year range from 210 million to nearly 240 million
people.
The
report
warns
that
200
million
poor
workers
are at risk of joining the ranks of people living on
less than 2 dollars per day in the past three years.
The director general of the International Labor
Organization Juan Somavia notes that some countries

address
the
effects

the
global
crisis.

countries

not
done so. And based on past experiences, it takes four

five

unemployment
to return to pre-crisis levels. Mr. Somavia says the
International
Labor
Organization
is
proposing
a
global
jobs ' agreement to deal with unemployment.
“
Its key

efforts
—
measures that would generate high levels of
employment
and
provide
basic
social
protection
for
the
most vulnerable.

Almost all companies recognize the importance
of
innovation
today,
but
not
many
are
able
to
integrate
innovation into their business. A commentary in the
Shanghai
Daily
points
out
that
innovation
doesn
'
t
mean
piles of documents. It' s something more practical.
(6)
The
article
says
many
people
tend
to
assume
that
innovation
just
means
creating
something
new,
but
actually
it
'
s
more
than
that.
It's
an
attitude
of
doing
things.
A
company
should
find
ways
to
innovate
not
just
in
products
but
also
in
functions,
business
models
and
processes.
(7)
The article cites the global ^iant Procter &
Gamble
as
an
example,
saying
a
real
innovative
company

should develop an innovation culture and use it as a
primary
tool
for
success.
Procter
&
Gamble
has
a

for
high-risk
ideas
that
succeed.
It
also
has
a
special
innovation facility for its employees. Sometimes its
employees
are
released
from
their
daily
jobs
for
weeks,
and
spend
their
time
interacting
in
the
innovation
facility
instead.
In
conclusion,
the
article
says
innovative
ideas
alone
do
not
ensure
success.
It's
pointless
unless
there
is
a
repeatable
process
in
place
to turn inspiration into financial performance.
