They rely on special communication channels enabled by modern technologies, such as emails, faxes, and teleconferences, and alike. Due to more limited communication channels, the success of virtual teams is much more sensitive to the type of project the group works on, what people are selected, and how the team is managed.73 One challenging case is the projects that rely heavily on integrated work. That is to say, when each person’s work depends significantly on what someone else is doing at the samemoment, like in a sports team, there is an ongoing heavy exchange of information in real time, and the tasks have to go through a strict order within a short time.Not everyone can perform well in a virtual team environment.74 Another important quality is communication skills. The team members must be able to communicate clearly and positively.Managers of virtual teams need to pay much more attention to having clear goals, performance standards, and communication rules. People have various assumptions on what to expect from each other. 75One of the biggest challenges of virtual teams is building trust between the team members. Trust is important for unblocking communication between members and increasing motivation of each person in the team. The issue of trust needs special attention at any stage of team existence.A. Yet, there is one significant difference.B. Not every type of project is suitable for a virtual team.C. A virtual team can choose whatever project they like to work on.D. The members must be self-motivated and able to work independently.E. Such teams are now widely used by companies and organizations to cut business costs.F. Members of virtual teams communicate quite well although they never meet face-to-face.G. To avoid misunderstanding, clear rules that everyone understands and agrees on are necessary.2015海淀第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）House SittingIn many countries of the world people do what is called house sitting. It means that if owners of the house are going away, they want someone to come into their home and look after the house and maybe pets while they are away.In Australia, many people travel. After people retire, they might buy a van and travel all over the country. 71 (many people---retired people---thousands of them)So if someone wants to travel or go away for some reason, they might want someone in their home to care for it and keep the gardens tidy. House sitters might have to care for pets. Also, quite a few people have swimming pools in their back yards and they need cleaning. 72 I feel it is a great way of seeing the country, because you go and stay in a new city, get to meet new people, and have time to go sightseeing in a new area.73 There are websites where you find the advertisements by people who want to travel, and by replying to the advertisement, you can make arrangements to go and look after their home.There are some requirements to be a house sitter. You must be a trusted person, so that the home owner knows you will not steal anything. You must be able to go when the house owner wants you to go, so you need lots of free time. 74 You need to be good with pets, able to care for cats and dogs, or other pets they may have.Some house sitting jobs are just for a few days or a couple of weeks while the home owner has a short holiday. Sometimes it is for much longer. We have had one house sit for six months, while the home owner travelled to Europe.75 Then you can travel to many different countries and stay there. One of the important things to get are references from the home owners where you have stayed. A reference is a writtenletter to say that you are trustworthy and have looked after their home well. You can show these letters to prospective house sitting jobs and they know you will do a good job.A. I have done house sitting many times.B. Thousands of people do this all the time.C. It is also possible to do house sitting in other countries.D. Generally you have many opportunities to get a house sitting job.E. You must take a little care over what your description says about you. （全文未涉及description）F. This is an international house sitting service for all city and country areas. (广告语言，与文章风格迥异)G.

But meeting new people, talking in a group, or speaking in public can cause their extreme shyness to kick in. 72With social phobia, a person's fears and concerns are focused on their social performance —whether it’s a major class presentation or small tal k at the lockers. 73 They’re also sensitive to fears that they'll be embarrassed, look foolish, make a mistake, or be criticized or laughed at. Then they start to focus on the embarrassing things that could happen, instead of the good things. This makes a situation seem much worse than it is, and influences a person to avoid it.74 People with social phobia can learn to manage fear, develop confidence and coping skills, and stop avoiding things that make them anxious. But it's not always easy. Overcoming social phobia means getting up the courage it takes to go beyond what's comfortable, little by little.First, we can help people create a plan for facing social fears one by one, and help them build the skills and confidence to do it. This includes practicing new behaviors. Sometimes medications that reduce anxiety are also used as part of thetreatment for social phobia. 75They can encourage people with social phobia to pick a small goal to aim for, remind them to go for it, and be there when they might feel discouraged. Good friends and family are also there to celebrate each small success along the way.Dealing with social phobia takes patience, courage to face fears and try new things, and the willingness to practice. It takes a commitment to go forward rather than back away when feeling shy.A. And family or friends are especially important.B. It may be an anxiety condition called social phobia.C. They feel uncomfortable about being noticed or judged by others.D. So they avoid enjoying social activities, which can get in the way of life.E. Social phobia is a fear reaction to something that isn't actually dangerousF. Social phobia can be turned around with some focused slow but steady effort.G. Each small step forward helps build enough confidence to take the next small step.2015丰台第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）Personal ShoppersI was shopping with Thomas, who has been working as a personal shopper for the past five years. “Personal shoppers are in great demand these days,” he told me as we were walking past designer clothes shops. 71 He said that there were many people who wanted to be fashionable, but they didn’t know where to start. They needed a professional to advise them.But why? I always call my best friend to help me find the perfect dress, not a stranger!“72 The first thing I do is help my customer improve their image.
