3.3 Susan Paullaos was recently appointed as a non-executive member of the internal audit committee of Gluck andGoodman, a public listed company producing complex engineering products. Barney Chester, the executive financedirector who chairs the committee, has always viewed the purpose of internal audit as primarily financial in natureand as long as financial controls are seen to be fully in place, he is less concerned with other aspects of internalcontrol. When Susan asked about operational controls in the production facility Barney said that these were not theconcern of the internal audit committee. This, he said, was because as long as the accounting systems and financialcontrols were fully functional, all other systems may be assumed to be working correctly.Susan, however, was concerned with the operational and quality controls in the production facility. She spoke toproduction director Aaron Hardanger, and asked if he would be prepared to produce regular reports for the internalaudit committee on levels of specification compliance and other control issues. Mr Hardanger said that the internalaudit committee had always trusted him because his reputation as a manager was very good. He said that he hadnever been asked to provide compliance evidence to the internal audit committee and saw no reason as to why heshould start doing so now.At board level, the non-executive chairman, George Allejandra, said that he only instituted the internal audit committeein the first place in order to be seen to be in compliance with the stock market’s requirement that Gluck and Goodmanshould have one. He believed that internal audit committees didn’t add materially to the company. They were, hebelieved, one of those ‘outrageous demands’ that regulatory authorities made without considering the consequencesin smaller companies nor the individual needs of different companies. He also complained about the need to have aninternal auditor. He said that Gluck and Goodman used to have a full time internal auditor but when he left a yearago, he wasn’t replaced. The audit committee didn’t feel it needed an internal auditor because Barney Chester believedthat only financial control information was important and he could get that information from his managementaccountant.Susan asked Mr Allejandra if he recognised that the company was exposing itself to increased market risks by failingto have an effective audit committee. Mr Allejandra said he didn’t know what a market risk was.Required:(a) Internal control and audit are considered to be important parts of sound corporate governance.(i) Describe FIVE general objectives of internal control.

    “Lucky” Lord Lucan一Alive or Dead
    On 8th November 1974 Lord Lucan,a British aristocrat,vanished. The day before,his children's nanny had been brutally murdered and his wife had been attacked too.To this day the British public are still interested in the murder case because Lucan has never been found.
    Now,over 30 years later,the police have reopened the case,hoping that new DNA tech-niques will help solve this murder mystery. People suspected that“Lucky”,as he was called by friends,wanted to kill his wife he no longer lived with. They say that Lucan entered his old house and in the dark,killed the nanny by mistake. His estranged wife heard noises,came downstairs and was also attacked,but managed to escape. Seven months after the murder,a jury concluded that Lucan had killed the nanny.
    What happened next is unclear,but there are several theories which fall into one of three categories:he may have killed himself,he could have escaped or he might have been killed. It appears that the night after the murder,“Lucky” borrowed a car and drove it,Lucan's friend Aspinall said in an interview that he thought Lucan had committed suicide by sinking his boat in the English Channel.
    Another version of events says that“Lucky” left the blood-soaked car on the coast and took a ferry to France. He was met there by someone who drove him to safety in another country.However,after a time,his rescuers became worried that they would become involved in the murder too and so Lucan was killed.
    A further fascinating theory was made in the book Dead Lucky by Duncan MacLaugh-lin,a former detective.He believes that Lucan travelled to Goa,India.where he assumed the identity of a Mr. Barry Haplin. Lucan then lived in Goa till his death in 1996.In the end the claim turned out be a case of mistaken identity. The man who died in 1996 was really Haplin,an exschoolteacher turned hippy. So what is the truth about Lucky?DNA testing has solved many murder cases,but who knows if it can close the book on this one.

    The public are still interested in the investigation because______.
    A: of the terrible murder
    B: of the use of new DNA techniques
    C: Lord Lucan has never been found
    D: Lord Lucan was famous

    答案:C
    解析:
    题干意为“公众对这件谋杀案的调查依旧很感兴趣的原因是……”。该题为细节题,而且为细节题中的因果逻辑题,在解题时要注意关注短文中陈述原因的句子,尤其是一些典型用来引出原因的词语和结构,如:because, because of, for, due to, thanks to, owing to等,同时还需要注意英文中的因果逻辑陈述习惯:先果后因。利用题干及选项中的名词及名词短语作为定位线索,在短文前三段中查找相关句,同时留意题干中的修饰词in-terested“感兴趣的”,这样在第一段中找到相关句:To this day the British public(与题干中的名词短语the public呼应)are still interested in the murder case because Lucan has never been found.相关句意为“直到现在,英国民众对这个谋杀案仍然很感兴趣,因为鲁肯伯爵一直没有被找到”。该句直接陈述了原因,所以C项“鲁肯伯爵一直没有被找到”是正确的答案。
    题干意为“人们认为鲁肯杀了保姆的原因是什么?”该题为细节题,同时也是因果逻辑题。利用题干及选项中的名词及名词短语作为定位线索,顺着上一题相关句的位置往下查找相关句,这样在第二段中找到相关句:People suspected that “Lucky”(指Lucan), as he was called by friends,wanted to kill his wife he no longer lived with. They say that Lu-can entered his old house and in the dark,killed the nanny by mistake. His estranged wife heard noises,came downstairs and was also attacked,but managed to escape. Seven months after the murder,a jury concluded that Lucan had killed the nanny.相关句(带有下划线的句子)意为“鲁肯伯爵被朋友称为‘幸运儿’,人们猜测他想要杀了他与之分居的妻子。有人说鲁肯踏进他的老房子,在一片漆黑中错杀了保姆”,由此可知C项“在一片漆黑之中,他误认为她(保姆)是鲁肯夫人”是答案。
    题干意为“Aspinall认为鲁肯是怎样自杀的?”该题为细节题,利用题干及选项中的名词及名词短语作为定位线索,顺着上一题相关句的位置往下查找相关句,这样在第三段中找到相关句:What happened next is unclear,but there are several theories which fall into one of three categories:he may have killed himself,he could have escaped or he might have been killed. It appears that the night after the murder,“Lucky”(指Lucan)borrowed a car and drove it,Lucan's friend Aspinall said in an interview that he thought Lucan had com-mitted suicide by sinking his boat in the English Channel.相关句(带下划线的句子)意为“在谋杀发生的第二天晚上,‘幸运儿’借了一辆车然后开走了,鲁肯的朋友Aspinall在一个采访中表示,他觉得鲁肯伯爵在英吉利海峡中凿沉了自己坐的船,已经自杀了”。由此可知鲁肯的朋友Aspinall认为鲁肯伯爵是凿沉了自己坐的船自杀的,因此答案为D。
    题干意为“鲁肯可能已经被杀了,原因是人们……”。利用题干及选项中的名词及名词短语作为定位线索,顺着上一题相关句的位置往下查找相关句,这样在第四段中找到相关句:Another version of events says that “Lucky” left the blood-soaked car on the coast and took a ferry to France. He was met there by someone who drove him to safety in another country. However,after a time,his rescuers became worried that they would become involved in the murder too and so Lucan was killed.相关句(带下划线的句子)意为“然而,过了一段时间,救他的人开始担心自己也会被卷入到谋杀案中,所以他们杀了鲁肯”。由此可知鲁肯可能 已经被杀的原因是人们(帮助鲁肯的人)害怕自己也被卷入到谋杀案中,因此答案为B项“认为如果鲁肯被警方抓住他可能向警方供出他们来”。

    Too Late to Regret It
    When I was a junior,I met a second-year student in my department. He wasn't tall or good-looking,but he was very nice,attractive and athletic.He had something that I admired very much .He was natural,warm,and sincere.
    I disregarded(不顾)my parents' disapproval. We were very happy together. He picked me up from my dorm every morning,and after class we would sit alongside the stream that ran through campus , or sunbathe(晒太阳)on the lawn. At night he would walk me back to my dorm .He came from a poor family,but in order to make me happy,he borrowed money from his friend to buy presents and meals for me .Our fellow students looked up to him as a role model, and the girls envied(妒忌)me. He wasn't a local , but wanted to stay here after graduation. I thought we had a future together.
    However,when I got a part-time job during the summer vacation,people began giving me a lot of pressure,saying that a pretty,intelligent girl like me should find a better guy to spend time with .This was also what my family thought.He spent the summer in his hometown,so I was all by myself. When he got back,I began finding faults with him.But his big heart and warmth soon drove all unpleasant thoughts away .However,I had no idea how badly I had hurt him and that things would get worse.
    I had a good part-time job off campus that paid pretty well.With my good performance at school,I also got admission to graduate school at one of China's best universities.He,on the oth- er hand,did not do so well at school or at work .I had to worry about his living expenses,job and scores。
    Almost all my colleagues and friends advised me to break up with him.Then we had a quarrel last June .He was in great pain,and my cold words and bad moods started turning him away.
    Graduation time was drawing near. He said that he couldn't put up with me anymore,and he said he wanted to go back to his hometown.I was shocked and looked at him in despair. True love happens only once,but I found it out too late.

    Why did he leave her?
    A: Because he could no longer bear her.
    B: Because he hated her.
    C: Because his parents needed taking care of.
    D: Because he wasn't a local.

    答案:A
    解析:
    本题问“什么时候作者爱上了这个男孩?”文章第一段和第二段提到了作者爱上男孩的时间,即:大学三年级的时候。其他时间与事实不一致。


    本题问“他做了什么使她高兴?”本题是细节题。文章第二段中提到“为了要使我快乐,他向他的朋友借钱为我买礼物并请我吃饭。”


    本题问“谁建议她与他分手?”文章第五段第一句提到“几乎我所有的同事和朋友劝告我和他分手。”因此选项C“她的同事和朋友”符合题意。


    本题问“为什么他离开了她?”文章最后一段提到“他说他无法忍受我,他说他想要回家乡。”显然这是原因所在。所以选项A“他再也无法忍受了”符合题意。


    本题问“当得知他将离开她时,她……”。文章最后一段提到“我感到吃惊,我意识到真正的爱只发生一次,但我发现的已经太晚。”由此可见,作者汁这件事情的感觉是痛苦的。因此选项D“非常痛苦”符合题意。

    A Minor Microsurgery Last year,Sean Martinovich,from Whitianga,had life-saving surgery when a golf-sized tumor was removed from his brain stem.But the operation left half his face paralysed.He talked with a slur,sometimes dribbled(流 口水)out of the side of his mouth and could not close his eye properly.Although he could run around with the other boys in the playground,when they laughed he could not laugh with them.Without a smile,he could suffer psychologically and emotionally. Last week,6-year-old Sean had seven hours of microsurgery that should give him back his smile.Doctor Bartlett removed a nerve from the back of one of Sean's legs and transplanted it into his face.On the normal side of his face the nerve divides into lots of little branches."We'll cut those nerve branches and then we'll take a nerve graft from one leg and tunnel it across his face from one side to the other and join that on to the nerve that' s been cut on the good side of his face."Doctor Bartlett said before the operation."If this was not fixed he conld face physical and emotional problems as he got older,"Doctor Bartlett said."Socially people can become quite withdrawn because of the face paralysis.It's easy for people,especially children,to become rather emotionless because they prefer the flatness of no movement on either side to the weirdness of an asymmetry of smiling on one side and having this twisted face." Sean is not smiling yet.Over the next six months the nerves will grow across the face to the damaged side and after that movement will hopefully come back.Sean's parents,Steve and Wendy Martinovich,said they had been through a year of hell.But their son was a determined boy who just got on with it,said Mrs Martinovich.They are amazed at the technology that they hope will restore the cheeky smile they love so much.For Doctor Bartlett the microsurgery is almost routine.For Sean's parents,it is a miracle.

    How old was Sean Martinovich when the golf-sized tumor was removed from his brain stem?
    A:4 years old.
    B:5 years old.
    C:6 years old.
    D:7 years old.

    答案:B
    解析:
    第一段第一句表明,Sean是在去年做的手术;第二段第一句表明,上周Sean的年龄为6岁。所以去年手术时、Sean的年龄应为5岁。
    第一段第三句表明,Sean谈吐不清,有时会流口水,还不能正常地闭眼睛;第一段最后一句说明他不能微笑。综合这些可推知," paralysed"、的意思为“瘫痪的”,也就是失去了感觉和对肌肉的控制。
    根据第二段第四句引用的Bartlett医生的话语可知,移植到Sean脸上的神经来自于他的腿上。
    由第二段最后两句引用Bartlett医生的话语可知,由于面部瘫痪,人们会变得很内向。特别是孩子,宁愿与面无表情的人接触,也会远离只有半边脸微笑的不对称表情。由此推测,Sean可能为了避免让别人发现他那不对称的微笑而采取躲避的方法,这会引起一系列生理问题和心理问题。

    第三篇

    On 8th November 1974 Lord Lucan,a British aristocrat,vanished.The day before,his children's nanny had been brutally murdered and his wife had been attacked too.To this day the British public are still interested in the murder case because Lucan has never been found.Now,over 30 years later,the police have reopened the case,hoping that new DNA techniques will help solve this murder mystery.
    People suspected that"Lucky",as he was called by friends,wanted to kill his wife he no longer lived with.They say that Lucan entered his old house and in the dark,killed the nanny by mistake. His estranged wife heard noises,came downstairs and was also attacked,but managed to escape. Seven months after the murder,a jury concluded that Lucan had killed the nanny.
    What happened next is unclear,but there are several theories which fall into one of three categories:he may have killed himself,he could have escaped or he might have been killed.It appears that the night after the murder,"Lucky"borrowed a car and drove it,Lucan's friend Aspinall said in an interview that he thought Lucan had committed suicide by sinking his boat in the English Channel.
    Another version of events says that"Lucky"left the blood-soaked car on the coast and took a ferry to France.He was met there by someone who drove him to safety in another country.However, after a time,his rescuers became worried that they would become involved in the murder too and so Lucan was killed.
    A further fascinating theory was made in the book Dead Lucky by Duncan Mac Laiwhlin.a former detective.He believes that Lucan traveled to Goa,India,where he assumed the identity of a Mr. Barry Haplin. Lucan then lived in Goa till his death in 1996.In the end the claim turned out to be a case of mistaken identity. The man who died in 1996 was really Haplin,an ex-school teacher turned hippy. So what is the truth about Lucky?DNA testing has solved many murder cases,but who knows if it can close the book on this one.

    It is thought that Lucan killed the nanny because_________.
    A:she was looking after the children
    B:she was a friend of Lucan
    C:it was dark and he thought she was Lady Lucan
    D:Lord Lucan thought the nanny stole his car

    答案:C
    解析:
    文章第一段告诉我们公众之所以对此案感兴趣是因为Lucan还没被找到。因此只有选项C是正确的。
    第二段讲到,保姆被杀是因为天黑看不清楚,而被Lucan误杀了。因此选项C是正确的。
    文章第三段最后一句提到Lucan的朋友在一个采访中表示,他觉得Lucan 在英吉利海峡弄沉了自己坐的船自杀了。因此选项D是正确的。
    根据第四段我们知道救Lucan的人担心自己也会被卷入到谋杀案件中,因此杀了Lucan。最符合此意的为B项,意思为他们觉得如果Lucan被捕,他有可能跟警察提起这些人。
    从文章最后一段的叙述我们知道Mac Laughlin确信Lucan逃到了印度,在那里换了个身份,假装成Barry Haplin。因此选项C是正确的。

    A Minor Microsurgery Last year,Sean Martinovich,from Whitianga,had life-saving surgery when a golf-sized tumor was removed from his brain stem.But the operation left half his face paralysed.He talked with a slur,sometimes dribbled(流 口水)out of the side of his mouth and could not close his eye properly.Although he could run around with the other boys in the playground,when they laughed he could not laugh with them.Without a smile,he could suffer psychologically and emotionally. Last week,6-year-old Sean had seven hours of microsurgery that should give him back his smile.Doctor Bartlett removed a nerve from the back of one of Sean's legs and transplanted it into his face.On the normal side of his face the nerve divides into lots of little branches."We'll cut those nerve branches and then we'll take a nerve graft from one leg and tunnel it across his face from one side to the other and join that on to the nerve that' s been cut on the good side of his face."Doctor Bartlett said before the operation."If this was not fixed he conld face physical and emotional problems as he got older,"Doctor Bartlett said."Socially people can become quite withdrawn because of the face paralysis.It's easy for people,especially children,to become rather emotionless because they prefer the flatness of no movement on either side to the weirdness of an asymmetry of smiling on one side and having this twisted face." Sean is not smiling yet.Over the next six months the nerves will grow across the face to the damaged side and after that movement will hopefully come back.Sean's parents,Steve and Wendy Martinovich,said they had been through a year of hell.But their son was a determined boy who just got on with it,said Mrs Martinovich.They are amazed at the technology that they hope will restore the cheeky smile they love so much.For Doctor Bartlett the microsurgery is almost routine.For Sean's parents,it is a miracle.

    Doctor Bartlett transplanted a nerve into Sean Martinovich's face which was removed from his______.
    A:leg
    B:back
    C:the normal side of his face
    D:brain

    答案:A
    解析:
    第一段第一句表明,Sean是在去年做的手术;第二段第一句表明,上周Sean的年龄为6岁。所以去年手术时、Sean的年龄应为5岁。
    第一段第三句表明,Sean谈吐不清,有时会流口水,还不能正常地闭眼睛;第一段最后一句说明他不能微笑。综合这些可推知," paralysed"、的意思为“瘫痪的”,也就是失去了感觉和对肌肉的控制。
    根据第二段第四句引用的Bartlett医生的话语可知,移植到Sean脸上的神经来自于他的腿上。
    由第二段最后两句引用Bartlett医生的话语可知,由于面部瘫痪,人们会变得很内向。特别是孩子,宁愿与面无表情的人接触,也会远离只有半边脸微笑的不对称表情。由此推测,Sean可能为了避免让别人发现他那不对称的微笑而采取躲避的方法,这会引起一系列生理问题和心理问题。
    第三段倒数第二句说明,对于Bartlett医生来说,微创手术是“routine"(日常工作),可见微创手术对Bartlett医生来说是一件很容易的事。

    Doctors said that Lorenzo might die within three years because _____.
    A

    they had never treated the disease before

    B

    Lorenzo was too young to be cured

    C

    no cure had been found for ALD

    D

    ALD was a rare disease


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    细节题。为什么医生断定Lorenzo三年内会死亡?由文中第一段第二句话可知,医生解释说“there was no cure for ALD”,目前还没有治愈ALD的药。C项直接引用,意思与之相同,故为正确答案。他们之前不是没有治过这种病,只是没有治好,A项错误。B项只是说他太年轻,这种病一直无法治愈,跟他是否年轻没有关系。D项只是陈述了该病罕见这一事实,并没有说明死亡的原因。
