Managers have planned and directed the firms operations with little thought to consulting the labor force. Managers have rarely felt compelled to obtain the workers opi

9、nions or to explain their decisions to their employees. At most, companies have provided suggestion boxes in which workers could place ideas for improving procedures. In recent years, however, many management specialists have been arguing that workers are more than sellers of labor - they have a vit

10、al stake in the company and may be able to make significant contributions to its management. Furthermore, major company decisions profoundly affect workers and their dependents. This is particularly true of plant closings, which may put thousands on the unemployment lines. Should workers, then, play

11、 a stronger role in management? Workers should have a role in management. At the very least, the labor force should be informed of major policy decisions ( A common complaint among rank-and-file workers is the lack of information about company policies and actions). Between 1980 and 1985 about five

12、million workers were the victims of plant closings and. permanent layoffs, often with no warning. At least 90 days notice ought to be given in such instances so that workers have time to adjust. Management should consult workers before closing a plant, because the workers might be able to suggest wa

13、ys of improving productivity and reducing costs and might be willing to make concessions that will help keep the plant operating. It should become a general practice to include workers in some managerial decision making. There ought to be representatives of the workers on the firms board of director

14、s or other major policy making groups. If rank-and-file workers are given a voice in the planning and management of the work flow, they will help to make improvements, their morale will rise, and their productivity will increase. As a further incentive, they must be given a share in the companys pro

15、fits. This can be done through employee stockownership plans, bonuses, or rewards for efficiency and productivity. Finally, when a plant can no longer operate at a profit, the workers should be given the opportunity to purchase the plant and run it themselves. 16、Traditional workers showed no intere

16、st in management. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 17、In reCent years many management specialists have been arguing for the workers role in management with two major reasons. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 18、Since policy decisions are business secrets of a firm, workers should not be informed of th

A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 20、The workers participation in management might save a plant from closing down. A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 21、One of the advantages of involving worker

An animal that influenced scientific thought has died. A chimpanzee named Washoe and born in Africa died of natural causes late last month at the age of 42 at a research center i

20、n the American state of Washington. Washoe had become known in the scientific community and around the world for her ability to use American Sign Language. She was said to be the first non-human to learn a human language. Her skills also led to debate about primates and their ability to understand l

21、anguage. 2. Research scientists Allen and Beatrix Gardner began teaching Washoe sign language in 1966. In 1969, the Gardners described Washoes progress in a scientific report. The people who experimented with Washoe said she grew to understand about 250 words. For example,Washoe made signs to commun

22、icate when it was time to eat. She could request foods like apples and bananas. She also asked questions like, Who is coming to play? Once the news about Washoe spread, many language scientists began studies of their own into this new and exciting area of research. The whole direction of primate res

23、earch changed. 3. However, critics argued Washoe only learned to repeat sign language movements from watching her teachers. They said she had never developed true language skills. Even now, there are some researchers who suggest that primates learn sign language only by memory, and perform the signs

24、 only for prizes. Yet Washoes keepers disagree. Roger Fouts is a former student of the Gardners. He took Washoe to a research center in Ellensburg, Washington. There, Washoe taught sign language to three younger chimpanzees, which are still alive. 4. Scientists like private researcher Jane Goodall b

25、elieve Washoe provided new information about the mental workings of chimpanzees. Today, there are not as many scientists studying language skills with chimps. 5. Debate continues about chimps understanding of human communication. Yet, one thing is sure - Washoe changed popular ideas about the possib

When one person gains weight, close friends tend to gain weight, too. Their study, published in The New England Journal of Medici

35、ne, involved a detailed analysis of a large social network of 12,067 people who were been closely followed for 32 from 1971 to 2003. The investigators knew who were friends with whom as well as who was a spouse or sibling neighbor, and they knew how much each person weighed at various times over thr

36、ee decades.That let them reconstruct what happened over the years as individuals became obese. Did their friends also become obese? Did family members? Or neighbors? The answer, the researchers report, was that people were most likely to become obese when a friend became obese. That increased a pers

37、ons chances of becoming obese by 57 percent. There was no effect when a neighbor gained or lost weight, however, and family members had less influence than friends. It did not even matter if the friend was hundreds of miles away, the influence remained. And the greatest influence of all was between

38、close mutual friends. There, if one became obese, the other had a 171 percent increased chance of becoming obese, too.The same effect seemed to occur for weight loss, the investigators say. But since most people were gaining, not losing, over the 32 years, the result was, on average, that people gre

39、w fatter. Dr. Nicholas A. Christakis, a physician and professor of medical sociology at Harvard Medical School and a principal investigator in the new study, said one explanation was that friends affected each others perception of fatness. When a close friend becomes obese, obesity may not look so b

40、ad. You change your idea of what is an acceptable body type by looking at the people around you , Dr. Christakis said. The investigators say their findings can help explain why Americans have become fatter in recent years - each person who became obese was likely to drag along some friends. Their an

41、alysis was unique, Dr. Christakis said, because it moved beyond a simple analysis of one person and his or her social contacts and instead examined an entire social network at once, looking at how a persons friends friends, or a spouses siblings friends, could have an influence on a persons weight.

42、The effects; he said, highlight the importance of a spreading process, a kind of social contagion, that spreads through the network. Of course, the investigators say, social networks are not the only factors that affect body weight. There is a strong genetic component at work, too. Science has shown

43、 that individuals have genetically determined ranges of weights, spanning perhaps 30 or so pounds for each person. But that leaves a large role for the environment in determining whether a persons weight is near the top of his or her range or near the bottom. As people have gotten fatter, it appears

44、 that many are edging toward the top of their ranges. The question has been why. If the new research is correct, it may say that something in the environment seeded what some call an obesity epidemic, making a few people gain weight. Then social networks let the obesity spread rapidly. 31、Who had th

45、e greatest influence on people who became obese? A.Their friends. B.Their neighbors C.Their family members. D.Their colleagues. 32、Which of the following statement about a friends influence is FALSE according to the report? A.Friends had more influence than family members on people who became obese.

46、 B.Even if the friend lives far away, the influence still remained. C.People were not likely to lose weight when they have skinny friends. D.The greatest influence of all was between close mutual friends. 33、According to Dr. Nicholas A. Christakis, what is the explanation for friends being the great

47、est influence? A.Friends usually spend a lot of time together. B.Friends share similar eating habits. C.Friends are more important than family members. D.Friends affected each others feelings of fatness. 34、Which factor of becoming obese is not mentioned in this report? A.Social contact. B.Genetic i

48、nformation. C.Life style. D.Environmental influences. 35、In what way is obesity contagious and epidemic? A.Social networks let the obesity spread rapidly. B.Individuals have genetically determined ranges of weights. C.Obesity can easily spread from one to another without any physical contact. D.Obes

49、ity can spread rapidly and extensively by infection and affecting many individuals in an area or a population at the same time. 根據(jù)材料，完成36-41題。 Good Modern Newspaper A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading.

50、 crime to international politics, from sport to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features (特寫(xiě)) as well,from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music.

For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which mea
