Ceely’s near miss made the news because she blamed it on he (导航仪),She had never driven the route before. It was dark and raining heavily,Ceely was relying on her GPS,but it made no mention of the crossing. I put my complete trust in the device and it led me right into the path of a speeding train,she told the BBC.
Who is to blame here?Rick Stevenson, who tells Ceely’s story in his book When Machines Fail finger at the limitations of technology ,We put our faith in digital decices ,be says.but our
digital hepers are too often not up to the job,They are filled with small problems,And it’s not takes us on a tour of digital disasters involving everything from keyboards.
The problem with his argument in the book is that it’s not clear why he only focuses on digital technology ,while there may be a number of other possible causes.A map makes might have left the crossing off a paper map,Maybe we should blame Ceely for not paying attention ,Pertaps the railway and work out that there really is something specifie wrong with the GPS equinment,But stevenson doesn .

The game between humans and their smart devices is amusing and compler .If is shaped by economics and psycholog and the culture we live in ,Somewhere in the mix of those forces there may be a way for a wiser use of technology.
If there is such a way,it should involve more than just an awareness of the shortcomings of our machines.After all,we have lived with them for tousands of years ,They have probaly been fooling us for just as long.

In the more and more competitive service industry ,it is no longer enugh to promise customer satisfaction.Today,customer“delight”is what companies are trying to achieve in order to keep and increase market share.
It is accepted in the marketing industry,and confirmed by a number of reserches,that customers receiving good service will promote business by telling up to 12 other people;those treated complaints are handled fairly will stay loyal.
New challenges for customer care have come when people can obtain goods and services through telephone call centers and the Internet.For example,many companies now have to invest (投资)a lot of money in information technology and sta?traming in order to cope with the “phone rage”-caused by delays in answering call,being cut off in mid-conversation or left waiting for long periods
“Many people do not like talking to machines,”days Dr,Storey,senior lecturer in Marketing at City University Business School.”Banks ,for example,encourage staff at call centers to use customer data to establish instant and good relationship with then,The aim is to make the customer feel they know you and that you can trust them – the sort of comfortable feelings people have during face-to-face chats with their local branch manager.”
Recommended ways of creating customer delight include:under-promising and over-delivbering (saying that a repair will be carried out within five hours,but getting it done within two );replacing a faulty prodect immediately;throwing in a gift voucher (购物礼券)as an unexpected “thank you” To regular customers;and always returning calls,even when they are complaints.
Aiming for customer delight is all very well,but if services do not ?ach the haigh level promised,disappointment or worse will be the result.This can be eased by offering an apolgy and an explanation of why the wervice did not meet usual standards with empathy (for example,”I know how you must feel”),and possible solutions (replace ment,compensation or whatever fairness suggests best meets the case).
Airlines face some of the toughtest challenges over customer care,Fierce competition has conviced them at that delighting passengers is an important marketing tool,while there is great potential for customer anger over delays caused by weather, unclaimed luggage and technical problems.
For British Airways staff,a winning telephone style is considered vital in handling the large volume of calls about bookings and flight times.They are trained to answer quickly,?their name,job title and a “we are here to help”attitude.The company has invested heavily in information technology to make sure that information is available instantly on screen.
British Airways also says its customer care policies are applied within the company and staff are taught to regard each other as customers requiring the highest standards of service.
Customer care is obviously here to stay and it would be a foolish company that used slogans such as “we do as we please”.On the other hand,the more customers are promised,the greater the risk of disappointment.
50.We can learn from Paragraph 2that _______________. A.complaining customers are hard to satisfy B.unsatisfied customers receive better service.. C.satisfied customers catch more attention D.well-treated customers promote business

Team Building Means More Than Throwing a Few People Together
“Teamworking” is found every where within just about every organization.You can’t
away from “teams” that are supposed to be able to create some thing that is greater that the sum of in parts.Or so the theory goes. There are five measures that need to be taken before you can get the mose out of a team ; 61._______ There must be aclear reason for the team to exist. And all the members should realise the andsignificance of what they are going to do. What they are hoping to achieve should be
something achievable but at the same time tough and inspiring enough to attract the members and keeep thet motivationg alive. What is more, they should also be well prepared for the possible difficulties they may come across in the process. 62.______
Team members must be able to express their opinions freely without fear of being criticired, and they must have the feeling that their suggestion will be taken serously.This is an imporant point because the team may need to resolve some complex or thorny issues. For example, it may discuse a sensitive topic. Should they keep their conclusion within the team or share it with other
employee .This is an issue in itself that all the members should agree on and frank discussion is required. 63._______
It is easy to think that a junior team member may have less to contribute than more experienced or discouraging, it also makes no sense – people that have become members of your team, you need to make sure that each of them has an opportunity to add his or her thoughts to discussions. 64.________ Disagreement are natural and, in fact, debate and iscussion should be encouraeed A team
made up only of “ yes men” can make disastrous decisions that few people honestly agreed with in the place.Consequently, there should be reles on how lengthy disagreements should be handled.For example , team meetings may not be the most appropriate place for adiscussiong that involves only two people,so”under-the-table”method may be effective. 65______ Most high-performing terams are well orgaized,A good organizer should be able to play to individuals’strengths and help them overcome their weaknesses. It should be someone who can act as a promoter and a constant reminder of what the team needs to achieve. He must, above all, be skilled in sharing responsibility and setting tasks to oten coaching them to achieve tasks, and providing constructive feedback on how the tasks went.
Team building isn’t as simple as just throwing a few people together,It requires much more,but motivating people is most essential ,Successful teamworking is not marked by how much progress the team makes toward its goals,but by how confidently each of its members compleates his or her assigned tasks with a sense of achievement and pride.
