4、is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自语) as: “Get up, John! Youll be late for work again!“ The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening.

The four-pound, battery-operated product is called the Voice, and it is the creation of Advan

They will soil your house, destroy your belongings, bark excessively, fight other dogs and even bite you. Nearl

32、y all behavior problems are perfectly normal dog activities that occur at the wrong time or place or are directed at the wrong thing. The key to preventing or treating behavior problems is learning to teach the dog to redirect its normal behavior to outlets that are acceptable in the domestic settin

33、g. One of the best things you can do for your dog and yourself is to obedience train it. Obedience training doesnt solve all behavior problems, but it is the foundation for solving just about any problem. Training opens up a line of communication between you and your dog. Effective communication is

34、necessary to instruct your dog about what you want it to do. Training is also an easy way to establish the social rank order. When your dog obeys a simple request of “come here, sit,“ it is showing obedience and respect for you. It is not necessary to establish yourself as top dog or leader of the d

35、og pack by using extreme measures. You can teach your dog its subordinate role by teaching it to show submission to you. Most dogs love performing tricks for you to pleasantly accept that you are in charge. Training should be fun and rewarding for you and your dog. It can enrich your relationship an

40、 more rewardsD.will have more confidence in himselfIn recent years many countries of the world have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied. But do more varied jobs lead to greater productivity? There is evid

41、ence to suggest that while variety certainly makes the workers life more enjoyable, it does not actually make him work harder. As far as increasing productivity is concerned, variety is not an important factor. Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is importa

42、nt and there is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated machinery which must be used in a fixed way. Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is usually very little that can be done to create i

43、t. Another important consideration is how much each worker contributes to the product he is making. In most factories the worker sees only one small part of the product. Some car factories are now experimenting with having many small production lines rather than one large one, so that each worker co

44、ntributes more to the production of the cars on his line. It would seem that not only is degree of worker contribution an important factor, therefore, but it is also one we can do something about. To what extent does more money lead to greater productivity? The workers themselves certainly think thi

45、s important. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. Money just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A similar argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we succeed in making their jobs more interesting, they will neither want more money

46、, nor will shorter working hours be so important to them.（分数：10.00）(1).Which of these possible factors leading to greater productivity is not true?（分数：2.00）A.To make jobs more varied.B.To give the worker freedom to do his job in his own way.C.Degree of work contribution.D.Demands for longer working
