As a result, 290 people from store bosses to those on the first rung of the management ladder will lose their jobs. One in seven will be affected, an average of one per store, in what has previously been seen as almost a protected species. Some of the victims will be commercial staff, responsible for trading operation, while others will come from the ranks; of personnel; and finance specialists. Peter Salsbury, the chief executive, was appointed last November in the middle of the group’s worst ever profits slide. It became his job-to try to turn the company round. He said the cuts were necessary to remove areas of duplication, overtop and unnecessary management layers within individual stores.Marks will announce their .end-of-year results next week. These are expected to show profits of no more than,.$650m—- a little more than half last yearns level.The company admitted yesterday that the management clear-out was a cost-cutting measure in response to the slump in sales and profits. "It is largely a cost-cutting exercise” a spokeswoman said, "In the current circumstances it wouldn’t be right to' have more management layers than is absolutely necessary.”But the latest management in the firing line are also victims of the new chief executive’s efforts to shake the organization out of a complacent culture which has typically paid too little attention to what customers want.The largest group will be local shops in small centres. There will be more than 100 of these.At the other end of the scale are 44 big departmental stores, led by the larges outlets at London’s Marble Arch and the new Manchester Building. The latter will open later this year. In .the middle will be 60-odd regional centres and a similar number of high-street locations.Marks warned that once the new structure was in place, there-could be further-management cuts.. These cuts would "enable the company to streamline its decision-making process and make sure that the customers’ voices and needs are heard far more clearly.23.

'The board of directors of a limited company is mainly responsible for determining the objectives and policies of a business. It is the directors who determine the direction for the business to take. They will need to make sure that there are the necessary funds and they wil l appoint the staff who will be given the right to run the daily business;'They' will also design an effective organization structure so that there is both a chain of' command arid an effective communication network with which instructions can be passed downward and information passed upward.The directors are selected by the shareholders, usually at the company's year l y general meeting. At the meeting, the chairman of the board will be expected to give a report on the work that hasbeen done in the past year. The company's accounts will be presented to the share holders at that time so they can judge for themselves whether or not the board has been successful.Direction in business is like strategy in a war situation. The strategic decisions determine the areas in which the company's resources will be employed. Above all it involves planning to make sure that the business first survives and then flourishes. Strategic decisions, made by the board of d i rectors, are concerned with the use of reso u rces. By contrast,there are the tactical decisions which the senior executives (appointed by the directors)' use to car r y o u t in detail the plans made by the board of directors.The fact that boards of-directors tend to meet rather infrequen t ly, say once a w eek,mean s that part-time directors can be elected to the board. Since they will not have departmenta l responsibilities within the company they are often des c ribed as non-executive directors.Though they may lack a detailed knowledge of the company's activities, they can bring special skills to the board. Some of them are lawyers, or experts in tax affairs. Some represent influential groups of shareholders whose support is necessary if the board is going to carry out its plans, while others are directors in a number of companies and are thus useful to contact boards, within a group of companies.23. What is the role of the board of directors?A. The board gives suggestions about the product type.B. The business depends on the board for a direction,C. The board selects all the employees.24. The staff are appointed so that they canA. carry out the everyday work.B. settle the financial problem.C. d e cide on the: p o l ic es of the business.25. With an effective organization structure,A. there will be no barrier between the staff and their leaders.B. there will be no barrier between the staff and their low-ranking employees.C. both, o f the above is true.26. What happens at the yearly general meeting?A. The directors examine their own work.B. The company's accounts are checked up.C. Both of the above.27. What is a s t rategic decision?A, This decision is one in a war situation.B. .It determines where the company will make use of its resources.C. It makes sure that the business will survive and flourish.28. The tactical d e cisions are made so that the senior executives canA. fully understand the plans from the board of directors.B. offer a detailed explanation of the plans from the board of directions.C. put into full practice the plans from the board of directors.PART SIX (Questions 29~40)• Read the information about the product life cycle.• Choose the best word to fill each gap.• For each Question mark one letter A, B, or C.The Product Life CycleMuch of-the wor l d about us is cyclical in nature.
