Inside The U.S. Navy's Leadership School
The top level of Navy
leadership is its admirals. There are 238 of them. They have responsibility for
more than 390, 000 members of the Navy and control an annual budget of more
than $130 billion. They are the equivalent of a
corporate C-suite. Of the more than 3,000 captains who serve in the Navy,
roughly 38--barely 1% --make the cut to admiral each year.
In 2001 the chief of naval operations--the Navy's CEO--asked retired Vice
Admiral Phil Quast, who had spent 38 years in the Navy,
to establish the program that became the Executive Learning Office. "Of
238 admiral positions, fewer than 40 are concerned with actual war fighting,
" Quast notes. "The vast majority is doing jobs analogous to that of
a CEO, CTO, CFO, COO or other functional business areas. Our job
is to help them develop the business acumen they need
to run the business of the Navy as excellent stewards of the public's money and
its trust."

BIOLOGICAL PASSPORT NABS CHEATING CYCLISTS
The contest between athletes who use performance-enhancing drugs and the authorities trying to catch them is much like a race itself. Each time a new drug test comes out, athletes and their doctors figure out a way to outsmart it.
But a new "biological passport" that measures blood and body chemistry over time may finally be putting a dent in sports doping.
Professional cycling is the first sport to embrace the relatively new test, and
it's just nabbed its biggest catch: an Italian cyclist, Franco Pellizotti, who
was one of the favorites to win this year's Giro d'Italia. The Giro d-Italia, a
grueling threeweek event second in size and importance only to the Tour de
France, kicks off on Saturday.

• Based on the text below, answer questions 06 and 07.
THE INTERNET AND GUTEMBERG
In our age,
everything is the newest New Thing or the biggest Big Thing. Steve Case of
America Online already calls the new century "the Internet Century, "
and some authorities whisper that the Internet rivals the importance of
Gutenberg' s invention of the printing press in the 15th century.
We suffer from historical amnesia.
Suppose you were born in 1900. You wouldn't yet watch
movies, let alone global TV. Fewer than 10% of U.S. homes had phones, and fewer
than 8% had electricity. Antibiotics hadn't been discovered. As yet the
Internet isn't in the same league with these developments.
Each changed lifestyles and popular beliefs. The
automobile suburbanized America and inaugurated mass travel. Antibiotics,
vaccines and public-health advances helped raise life expectancy from 46 in
1900 to 77 today. The explosion of prosperity - a consequence of electricity, other
technologies and modern management - shortened working hours and expanded
leisure. Movies and TV transformed popular culture. As a matter of fact, the
Internet is too young for anyone to foretell its ultimate significance.
