John Pentanol was appointed as risk manager at HZ Company a year ago and he decided that his first task was to examine the risks that faced the company. He concluded that the company faced three major risks, which he assessed by examining the impact that would occur if the risk were to materialise. He assessed Risk 1 as being of low potential impact as even if it materialised it would have little effect on the company’s strategy. Risk 2 was assessed as being of medium potential impact whilst a third risk, Risk 3, was assessed as being of very high potential impact.When John realised the potential impact of Risk 3 materialising, he issued urgent advice to the board to withdraw from the activity that gave rise to Risk 3 being incurred. In the advice he said that the impact of Risk 3 was potentially enormous and it would be irresponsible for HZ to continue to bear that risk.The company commercial director, Jane Xylene, said that John Pentanol and his job at HZ were unnecessary and that risk management was ‘very expensive for the benefits achieved’. She said that all risk managers do is to tell people what can’t be done and that they are pessimists by nature. She said she wanted to see entrepreneurial risk takers in HZ and not risk managers who, she believed, tended to discourage enterprise.John replied that it was his job to eliminate all of the highest risks at HZ Company. He said that all risk was bad and needed to be eliminated if possible. If it couldn’t be eliminated, he said that it should be minimised.(a) The risk manager has an important role to play in an organisation’s risk management.Required:(i) Describe the roles of a risk manager. (4 marks)(ii) Assess John Pentanol’s understanding of his role.

(6 marks)(c) Jane Xylene expressed a particular view about the value of risk management in HZ Company.

共用题干第一篇Don't Be WorkaholicWorkaholic and working hard are quite different.Working hard involves being organized,focused,getting a lot of work done,knowing when to stop,and having a life other than work.Workaholics,on the other hand,are often disorganized,always find reasons for working more,feel lost without work to do,hide from problems through work, don't know how or when to relax,bring work home from the office,can't communicate well with fellow workers and family members and have unbalanced,one-dimensional lives.Workaholics,like those who are constantly drunk,suffer from a controlling habit,usually defined as compelling behavior despite negative consequences.They are sometimes pushed into their habit by their work beliefs,by workaholic role models,and by a work system that automatically sanctions workaholism,Despite lip service to the contrary,most employers want loyal employees who work longer hours,rewarding them with higher pay and better benefits.In many companies,workers unwilling to burn the midnight oil are at risk.Certainly,they hazard their jobs by working normal hours.Americans tend to become trapped in a working and spending consumption mode,driven by merchants,that leads them to rack up their expectations.According to some psychology counselors,workaholism can be both good and bad for us.It can fuel a sense of self-worth and accomplishment. And we get paid for it and praised for it,which produces good feelings we may not necessarily be able to attain in other parts of our lives.According to the passage,which of the following statements is correct?A:In all companies,workers unwilling to burn the midnight oil are at risk.B:Workaholism can only be bad for us.C:Working and spending consumption mode drives Americans to rack up to their expectations.D:The good feelings workaholism produces can be got in other parts of our lives.
资料：No credit，bad credit Hear the terms often enough and they can blur together.These credit statuses aren’t one and the same，though.Whether you have no credit or bad credit，one thing’s for sure：You don’t have good credit.And without good credit，you’ll face an uphill battle any time you apply for a loan or credit card.Potential lenders will want to know that you will almost certainly repay any money that you borrow.They likely won’t risk loaning money or extending credit to those whose creditworthiness is a big question mark or，worse，who have a track record of poor money management.If you fall into either of these categories，it’s smart to focus on raising your credit scores.If you have no credit score，you don’t have a credit history.If you have bad credit，it’s likely that you’ve mishandled credit in the past.And these two less-than-ideal credit standings require different solutions.If you fall in the no-credit category，you haven’t necessarily made any financial mistakes.In this case，a good way to start building that history is to acquire a credit card for people with no credit.Secured credit cards （which require a security deposit）or college student credit cards are typically the easiest to qualify for if you have no credit.A credit-builder loan can also help you establish credit.Bad credit can be a result of financial missteps，including missing payments，defaulting on loans，or having accounts sent to collections.If you fall into this category and need credit，you’ll need to look for a bad-credit credit card.A secured card or credit-builder loan is a good option in this situation，as well.You also may qualify for a bad-credit personal loan.If you still have open accounts，pay down the balances but don’t close credit accounts if you can avoid it.People with no credit are just starting to build their financial reputation，while those with bad credit are doing damage control.Moving from one of these less desirable situations to a good credit standing may use different tools，but the method is much the same： Make your payments on time and keep your debt low.It takes diligence and dedication，but it can be done.It can be inferred that the potential lenders______A.will probably loan money bad-credit people as they still have open accounts.B.will probably loan money no-credit people as they haven’t made any financial mistakes.C.won’t risk loaning money or extending credit to no-credit person or bad-credit person.D.None of above

问答题Practice 6 None of us can afford to be complacent about our command of English. For most of the time, of course, there is no problem: we are dealing with family and friends on everyday affairs; and what is more, we are usually talking to them, not writing. It is in ordinary talk to ordinary people on ordinary matters that we are most at home, linguistically and otherwise. And fortunately, this is the situation that accounts for the overwhelming majority of our needs in the use of English. Problems arise as soon as the context is somewhat out of the ordinary. We suddenly need to address a cousin about the death of her husband; or we are writing to our employer to explain temporary absence; composing the minutes of a particularly delicate committee meeting; even just drafting an announcement to pin on the club notice board. This is when we may—or should—pause and wonder about idiom, good usage, the most appropriate way of putting things. There is the risk of sounding too casual, too colloquial, too flippant. There is the converse risk of seeming ponderous, distant, pompous, unnatural; of using an expression which, instead of striking a resonant note, falls flat as a hackneyed cliché.
