Questions 49 - 50 are based on Text 6
49. The speaker is most probably a former __ of IBM.
A. CEO B. marketing manager
C. engineering manager D. senior employee
50. "Pitfall" in the context most probably means __
A. a hidden hazard a. a possible advantage
C. a big benefit D. a potential gain
Text 6
My most important contribution to IBM was my ability to pick strong and intelligent men and then hold them together by persuasion, by apologies, by financial incentives, by speeches, by chatting with their wives, by thoughtfulness when they were sick or involved in accidents, and using every tool at my command to make that team think that I was a decent guy. I knew I couldn't match all of them intellectually, but [ thought that, if I used fully every capability I had, l could stay even with them.
I never hesitated to promote someone I didn't like. The comfortable assistant, the nice guy you like to go on fishing trips with, is a great pitfall. Instead I looked for those sharp, harsh, almost unpleasant guys who see and tell you about things as they really are. If you can get enough of them around you and have patience enough to hear them out, there is no limit to where you can go.


GROUP 6
Question 51 is based on Text 1
51. The passage's main theme is that __
A. a picture is more vivid than any other things
B. words can inspire the imagination and produce pictures far more vivid than any other things
C. the main function of any artist is to help people to see more things
D. there is more to life than meets the eye
Text 1
Some say that nothing is more vivid or memorable than a picture. We disagree. No visual image is as vivid as the image created by the mind in response to words. The main function of the poet or the artist, in fact, is to enable people to see more deeply into things than they can with the unaided eye. There is more to life than meets the eye, and this is what good prose or poetry or painting is all about.
It is not true that one picture is worth a thousand words. It takes only a few words --if they are the right words -- to inspire the imagination and produce pictures far more colorful than anything within the range of electronic communications.
