THE  COST  OF  NOT  TRAINING
0   Training is not a cost . It’s an investment . It really doesn’t matter that what we pay
00  for an investment . What is relevant is what we get in return . One of the easiest
34  ways is to put an organization’s future at risk would be to view training primarily as
35  a cost , and therefore provide with substandard training that operates only as a
36  temporary solution . Many companies attempt to quantify as the results of training. For
37  example , a person paid $50,000 a year who wastes just one hour a day costs the
38  organization between $6,250 per year . So if the organization sends 25 people for
39  training and they all receive the same benefit , this would equal from $156,250
40  savings per year . A few of years ago , training , apart from showing employees
41  what the basics of doing the job , was an optional extra for most organizations .
42  Today this is no longer than the case . If we continue doing what we do in the same way ,
43  most of us and our organizations will become obsolete within the five years . This is
44  because of our competitors are helping their staff to become more effective through
45  training . They understand that if the real price of not training is the company falling
    behind as a result .

练习二
• Read the article below about customer loyalty .
• In most of the lines 34-45 there is one extra word . It is either grammatically incorrect or 
   doesn’t fit in the meaning of the text . Some lines, however, are correct .
• If a line is correct , write CORRECT on your Answer Sheet .
• If there is a extra word in the line , write the extra word in CAPITAL LETTER on your Answer Sheet.
• The exercises begins with two examples , (0) and (00) .  
Examples

INCREASING  CUSTOMERS  LOYALTY
 0  Customers are not revolutionaries. They are attracted to be the certainty of knowing that
00  what they buy it will be good value for money or will perform a particular task effectively.
34  They are cautious but their loyalty , without once achieved , is the key to business success.
35  Brands can help to create customer loyalty by providing us a signpost to certainty and
36  safety . Ideally , when a customer sees off a product , it leads to a range of positive thoughts
37  so that the product is being bought . Unfortunately , only a small number of products have
38  reached to this level . While everyone in business is aware of the need to attract and
39  retain customers , that they often overlook the second , more important , half of the
40  equation . In the excitement of beating against the competition and securing orders,
41  managers often fail to ensure that the customer remains a customer . It has been
42  estimated that since the average company loses between 10 to 30% of its customers
43  every year and this only recently have organizations started to wake up to these lost
44  opportunities and to calculate the financial implications . Established customers often
45  buy more and, in the addition , they may also provide free word-of-mouth advertising.
