1、大学英语四级 261及答案解析(总分:746.58,做题时间:130 分钟)一、Writing (30 minutes)(总题数:1,分数:30.00)1.For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic What Has SARS Brought to US. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below: 1悲观者认为 SARS是人类的灾难。 2乐观者认为人类终将制服一切,SARS 也不例外。

2、 3SARS 究竟给我们带来什么警醒。 (分数:30.00)_二、Reading Comprehensio(总题数:1,分数:71.00)Absenteeism In Nursing: A Longitudinal Study Absence from work is a costly and disruptive problem for any organization. The cost of absenteeism (矿工) in Australia has been put at 1.8 million hours per day or $1400 million annually.

3、The study reported here was conducted in the Prince William Hospital in Brisbane, Australia, where, prior to this time, few active steps had been taken to measure, understand or manage the occurrence of absenteeism. Nursing Absenteeism A prevalent attitude amongst many nurses in the group selected f

4、or study was that there was NO reward or recognition for Not taking paid leave entitled to them in their employment conditions. Therefore, they believed they may as well take the days off-sick (病假) or otherwise. Similar attitudes have been Noted by James (1989), who Noted that sick leave is seen by

5、many workers as a right, like annual holiday leave. Miller and Norton (1986), in their survey of 865 nursing personnel, found that 73 percent felt they should be rewarded for Not taking sick leave, because some employees always used their sick leave. Further, 67 per cent of nurses felt that administ

6、ration was Not sympathetic to the problems shift work causes to employees personal and social lives. Only 53 per cent of the respondents felt that every effort was made to schedule staff fairly. In another longitudinal study of nurses working in two Canadian hospitals, Hackett, Bycio and Guion (1989

7、) examined the reasons why nurses took absence from work. The most frequent reason stated for absence was minor illness to self. Other causes, in decreasing order of frequency, were illness in family, family social function, work to do at home, etc. Method In an attempt to reduce the level of absent

8、eeism amongst the 250 Registered and Enrolled Nurses in the present study, and Prince William management introduced three different, yet potentially complementary, strategies over 18 months. Strategy 1: non-financial (material) incentives (激励) Within the established wage and salary system it was Not

9、 possible to use hospital funds to support this strategy. However, it was possible to secure incentives from local businesses, including free passes to entertainment parks, theatres, restaurants, etc. The nurses with the lowest absence rate would win the prize. Strategy 2: Flexible fair schedual Whe

10、re possible, staff were given the opportunity to determine their working schedule within the limits of the needs of their hospitals. Strategy 3: Individual absenteeism and counseling Each month, managers would analyze the pattern of absence of staff with excessive sick leave (greater than ten days p

11、er year for full-time employees). Characteristic patterns of potential voluntary absenteeism such as absence before and after days off, excessive weekend and night duty absence and multiple single days off were communicated to all ward(病房) nurses and then, as necessary, followed up by action. Result

12、s: Absence rates for die six months prior to the incentive scheme ranged from 3.69 per cent to 4.32 per cent. In the following six months they ranged between 2.87 per cent and 3.96 per cent. This represents a 20 per cent improvement. However, analyzing the absence rates on a year-to-year basis, the

13、overall absence rate was 3.60 per cent in the first year and 3.43 per cent in the following year. This represents a 5 per cent decrease from the first to the second year of the study. A significant decrease in absence over the two-year period could Not be demonstrated. Discussion The non-financial i

14、ncentive scheme did appear to assist in controlling absenteeism in the short term. As the scheme progressed it became harder to secure prizes and this program finally had to cease. There were mixed results across wards as well. (For example, in wards with staff members who had long-term genuine illn

15、ess, there was little chance of winning, and to some extent the staff on those wards were disempowered. Our experience would suggest that the long-term effects of incentive awards on absenteeism are questionable. Over the time of the study, staff were given a larger degree of control in their duty a

16、rrangement. This led to significant improvements in communication between managers and staff. A similar effect was found from the implementation of the third strategy. Many of the nurses had Not realized the impact their behaviour was having on the organisation and their colleagues but mere were als

17、o staff members who felt that talking to them about their absenteeism was picking on them and this usually had a negative effect on managementemployee relationships. Conclusion Although there has been some decrease in absence rates, no single strategy or combination of strategies has had a significa

18、nt impact on absenteeism per se. In spite of the disappointing results, it is our contention that the strategies were Not in vain. A shared ownership of absenteeism and a collaborative approach to problem solving has facilitated improved cooperation and communication between management and staff. It

19、 is our belief that this improvement alone, while Not obviously measurable, has increased the ability of management to manage the effects of absenteeism more effectively since this study.

The first of these was a colonial institution. It began in New England with the e

40、stablish ment in 1635 of the Boston Free Latin School. The curriculum (课程) consisted mainly of the classical languages, and the purpose of this kind of school was the preparation of boys for college, where most of them would be fitted for the ministry. The academy began in the early 1750s with Benja

41、min Franklins school in Philadelphia, which later became the University of Pennsylvania. It extended generally to about the middle nineteenth century, except in the southern states where the public high school was late in developing and where the academy continued to be a principal means of secondar

42、y education even after 1900. The academy was open to girls as well as to boys, and it provided a wider curriculum than what the Latin grammar school had furnished. It was designed not only as a preparation for college but also for practical life in commercial and business activities. Although its wi

43、de educational values are evident and are recognized as important contributions to secondary education in this country, the academy has never been considered a public institution as the public high school has come to be. The public high school had its origin in Massachusetts in 1821 when the English

44、 Classical School was established in Boston. In 1827, the state enacted(制定) the first state-wide public high-school law in the United States. By 1840, there were perhaps a dozen public high schools in Massachusetts and many in other eastern states by 1850, they could also be found in many other stat

45、es. Just as the curriculum of the academy grew out of that of the Latin grammar school, the curriculum of the public high school developed out of that of the academy. The public high school in the United States is a repudiation (推翻) of the aristocratic(贵族的)and selective principle of the European edu

46、cational tradition. Since 1890, enrollments (入学) in secondary schools, mainly public high schools, have practically doubled in this country every ten years. (分数:177.50)(1).According to the passage, which of the following sequences indicates the order in which the schools developed?(分数:35.50)A.Latin

47、grammar school, public high school, academy.B.Latin grammar school, academy, public high school.C.Public high school, Latin grammar school, academy.D.Public high school, academy, Latin grammar school.(2).It is the opinion of the author that the academy, compared with the public high school, was_.(分数
