what makes foreign kings and queens and other important people want to visit these disney parks? well, one reason is the way theyre treated once they get there. the people at disney go out of their way to serve their guests, as they prefer to call them, and to see that they enjoy themselves. all new employees, from vice presidents to part-time workers, begin their employment by attending disney university and taking traditions i . here, they learn about the companys history, how it is managed and why it is successful. they are shown how each department relates to the whole. all employees are shown how their part is important in making the park a success. after passing traidtions i, the employees go on to more specialized training for their specific (具体的) jobs. no detail is missed. a simple job like taking tickets requires four eight-hour days of training. when one ticket taker was asked why it took so much training for such a simple, ordinary job, he replied, what happens if someone wants to know where the restrooms are, when the parade starts or what bus to take back to the campgrounds?. we need to know the answers or where to get them quickly. our constant aim is to help our guests enjoy the party. even disneys managers get involved in the daily management of the park. every year, the managers leave their desks and business suits and put on special service clothes. for a full week, the bosses sell hot dogs or ice cream, take tickets or drive the monorail (单轨车), and take up any of the 100 jobs that make the entertainment park come alive. the managers agree that this week helps them to see the companys goals more clearly. all these efforts to serve the public well have made walt disney productions famous. disney is considered by many as the best mass service provider in america or the world. as one long-time business observer once said, how disney treats people, communicates with them, rewards them, is in my view the very reason for his fifty years of success. i have watched, very carefully and with great respect and admiration, the theory and practice of selling satisfaction and serving millions of people on a daily basis, successfully. it is what disney does best. 1. the first day they come to disney parks, all new employees_. a. begin by receiving on-the-job training b. must learn several jobs c. begin, as ticket takers d. have already attended disney university2. the main objective of the disney employees is to _. a. learn all parts of the business b. see that their guests enjoy themselves c. be able to answer all kinds of questions d. keep their important guests happy3. each year, managers wear special service clothes and work in the park to _. a. set a good example for employees b. remind themselves of their beginnings at disney c. gain a better view of the companys objectives d. replace employees on holiday4. which of the following is not true according to the passage?

of course , the famous such as michael phelps and liu xiang havent finished competing yet , and can live off their fame until the london games. yao ming had a disappointing time in beijing , but at least he can carry on playing basketball and earning money and glory with the houston rockets. the professional sportsmen and women who compete in the olympics such as footballers or tennis players go back to their day jobs, earning millions. not all former olympic athletes are so lucky. some nations have started to reward successful olympians with cash, but retired athletes still have to go on and find something else to do once the games are over. what do they do to earn a living , or to satisfy their competitive nature?a billion people around the globe watch the olympics and athletes and land a job by simply having a recognizable face. acting is one employment opportunity. it is disappointing to see healthy athletes promoting the unhealthiest of food and drink. one other career move for olympians is to go into politics. actors have done it, so why not athletes? politicians certainly love successful sportspeople. but as british cyclist chris hoy has shown, olympic gold medalists dont always love being used by politicians , who try to steal some of their fame and glory. 60. who will have the greatest difficulty in making money after the olympics? a. michael phelps. b. yao ming . c. the professional athletes. d. retired athletes.61. according to the passage, why can former athletes work as actors or actresses ? a. because they are really better than other actors at acting. b. because of their familiar faces. c. because acting is their favourite profession. d. because they have no choice but to accept their fate. 62. the author thinks that . a. athletes can become politicians b. athletes shouldnt go into politics c. athletes are thought to become better politicians d. athletes fame and glory stop them improving themselves63. what is the best title for passage?
