   Read the excerpt below and answer the question. “It tastes like liquorice,” the girl said and put the glass down. “That’s the

way with everything.” “Yes,” said the girl. “Everything tastes of liquorice. Especially all the things you’ve waited so long for, like absinthe.” In at least 150 words, distinguish between what is directly stated in the passage, versus what is really meant.

What is really stated in this passage is that absinthe tastes like licorice, and that everything else that a person waits a long time to try also tastes like licorice. What this passage actually means, however, is that things are better (or seem better) when you wait for them. For example, a driver's license is not an extraordinary thing in itself, but it seems so much better when a person has had to wait his or her whole life to obtain it. The freedom of being on the road may even also be described as "sweet"- like licorice.

The things that people wait for in life (unless they are food-related, technically) do not actually taste like licorice, but it relates the literal action of the story to the figurative meaning behind it by relating to the reader's understanding that things seem sweeter when they have been looked forward to for a long time.

Which source of recruitment is needed to bring new blood in the organisation​
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

External source of recruitment

Explanation:

Internal source of recruitment does not provide new blood as it implies re-hiring, promoting, or transferring persons who are already working or have worked for the company. So, external source of recruitment is needed to bring <em>new blood</em> into the organization. That can be achieved in multiple ways, as the external source suggests people joining the organization through recommendations, then there are employment agencies whose occupation is finding all sorts of candidates. Also, companies can visit schools and colleges in order to find new candidates. Companies can advertise job positions to the wide public, they also can hire candidates who are not so skilled right now, but can learn in the future. So, there are some of the most spread ways of finding new candidates and bringing <em>new blood</em>.
