7、aditionally, it has been the workers role to work and managements role to manage. 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 opinions or to explain their decisions to their emplo
8、yees. 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 vital stake in the company and may be able to make si
9、gnificant 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 a stronger role in management? Workers should hav
10、e 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 million workers were the victims of plant closings
11、 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 ways of improving productivity and reducing costs and
12、 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 directors or other major policymaking groups. If rank-and-f
13、ile 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 profits. This can be done through employee stockownersh
14、ip 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 interest in management. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not men
15、tioned 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 them. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not
16、 mentioned 19 Before closing, a plant should put up a notice and keep it for 90 days. （ 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 workers in ma
17、king a decision is that the interpersonal relationship between workers and managers can be improved. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 22 An efficient and productive worker should be rewarded with anything but shares of a plant. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 三、 概括大意与完成句子 (第 23-30题，

By moving goods from places where they are plentiful to places where they are scarce, transport adds to their value. The more e
19、asily goods can be brought over the distance that separates producer and consumer, the better for trade. When there were no railways, no good roads, no canals, and only small sailing ships, trade was on a small scale. 2 The great advances made in transport during the last two hundred years were acco
20、mpanied by a big increase in trade. Bigger and faster ships enabled a trade in meat to develop between Britain and New Zealand, for instance. Quicker transport makes possible mass-production and big business, drawing supplies from, and selling goods to, all parts of the globe. Big factories could no
21、t exist without transport to carry the large number of workers they need to and from their homes. Big city stores could not have developed unless customers could travel easily from the suburbs and goods delivered to their homes. Big cities could not survive unless food could be brought from a distan
22、ce. 3 Transport also prevents waste. Much of the fish landed at the ports would be wasted if it could not be taken quickly to inland towns. Transport has given us a much greater variety of foods and goods since we no longer have to live on what is produced locally. Foods which at one time could be o
23、btained only during a part of the year can now be obtained all through the year. Transport has raised the standard of living. 4 By moving fuel, raw materials, and even power, as, for example, through electric cables, transport has led to the establishment of industries and trade in areas where they
24、would have been impossible before. Districts and countries can concentrate on making things which they can do better and more cheaply than others and can then exchange them with one another. The cheaper and quicker transport becomes, the longer the distance over which goods can profitably be carried
25、. Countries with poor transport have a lower standard of living. 5 Commerce requires not only the moving of goods and people but also the carrying of messages and information. Means of communication, like telephones, cables and radio, send information about prices, supplies, and changing conditions
26、in different parts of the world. In this way, advanced communication systems also help to develop trade. 23 A Higher Living Standard B Importance of Transport in Trade C Various Means of Transport D Birth of Transport-related Industries and Trade E Role of Information in Trade F Public Transportatio

But some things we do know. First, we know that all human beings have a language of some sort. There is no race of men anywher
30、e on earth so backward that it has no language, no set of speech sounds by which the people communicate with one another. Furthermore, in historical times, there has never been a race of men without a language. Second, there is no such thing as a primitive language. There are many people whose cultu
31、res are undeveloped, who are, as we say, uncivilized, but the languages they speak are not primitive. In all known languages we can see complexities that must have been tens of thousands of years in developing. This has not always been well understood; indeed, the direct contrary has often been stat
32、ed. Popular ideas of the language of the American Indians will illustrate. Many people have supposed that the Indians communicated in a very primitive system of noises. Study has proved this to be nonsense. There are, or were, hundreds of American Indian languages, and all of them turn out to be ver
33、y complicated and very old. They are certainly different from the languages that most of us are familiar with, but they are no more primitive than English and Greek. A third thing we know about language is that all languages are perfectly adequate, That is, each one is a perfect means of expressing
34、the culture of the people who speak the language. Finally, we know that language changes. It is natural and normal for language to change; the only languages which do not change are the dead ones. This is easy to understand if we look backward in time. Change goes on in all aspects of language. Gram
35、matical features change as do speech sounds, and changes in vocabulary are sometimes very extensive and may occur very rapidly. Vocabulary is the least stable part of any language. 31 In the second paragraph the author thinks that （ A） some backward race doesnt have a language of its own. （ B） some
36、race in history didnt possess a language of its own. （ C） any human race, whether backward or not, has a language. （ D） some races on earth can communicate without language. 32 According to the author, people of undeveloped cultures can have _ languages. （ A） complicated （ B） uncivilized （ C） primit
37、ive （ D） well-known 33 The author has used American Indian languages as an example to show that they are （ A） just as old as Some well-known languages. （ B） just as sophisticated as some well-known languages. （ C） more developed than some well-known languages. （ D） more complex than some well-known
38、languages. 34 Which of the following statements is INCORRECT? （ A） A language is a means of expressing a particular culture. （ B） All languages can well express their respective cultures. （ C） American Indian languages are as sophisticated as English. （ D） Some languages are better than other langua
39、ges. 35 According to the author, language changes are most likely to occur in （ A） grammar. （ B） pronunciation. （ C） vocabulary. （ D） intonation. 36 The Only Way Is Up Think of a modem city and the first image that come to mind is the skyline. It is full of great buildings, pointing like fingers to
40、heaven. It is true that some cities dont permit buildings to go above a certain height. But these are cities concerned with the past. The first thing any city does when it wants to tell the world that it has arrived is to build skyscrapers. When people gather together in cities, they create a demand
41、 for land. Since cities are places where money is made, that demand can be met. And the best way to make money out of city land is to put as many people as possible in a space that covers the smallest amount of ground. That means building upwards. The technology existed to do this as early as the 19
42、th century. But the height of buildings was limited by one important factor. They had to be small enough for people on the top floors to climb stairs. People could not be expected to climb a mountain at the end of their journey to work, or home. Elisha Otis, a US inventor, was the man who brought us
43、 the lift - or elevator, as he preferred to call it. However, most of the technology is very old. Lifts work using the same pulley system the Egyptians used to create the Pyramids. What Otis did was attach the system to a steam engine and develop the elevator brake, which stops the lift falling if t
44、he cords that hold it up are broken. It was this that did the most to gain public confidence in the new invention, In fact, he spent a number of years exhibiting lifts at fairgrounds, giving people the chance to try them out before selling the idea to architects and builders. A lift would not be a v
45、ery good theme park attraction now. Going in a lift is such an everyday thing that it would just be boring. Yet psychologists and others who study human behavior fund lifts fascinating. The reason is simple. Scientists have always studied animals in zoos. The nearest they can get to that with humans
46、 is in observing them in lifts. “It breaks all the usual conventions about the bubble of personal space we carry around with us and you just cant choose to move away,“ says workplace psychologist, Gary Fitzgibbon. Being trapped in this setting can create different types of tensions, he says. Some pe
47、ople are scared of them. Others use them as an opportunity to get close to the boss. Some stand close to the door. Others hide in the corners. Most people try and shrink into the background. But some behave in a way that makes others notice them. There are a few people who just stand in a corner tak
48、ing notes, Dont worry about them. They are probably from a university. 36 “.these are cities concerned with the past“ in the first paragraph refer to cities that （ A） are worded about their past. （ B） have a glorious past to be proud of. （ C） want to maintain their traditional image. （ D） are very i
49、nterested in their own history. 37 The difficulty in constructing tall buildings in the 19th century lies in （ A） the shortage of money. （ B） the lack of a device to carry people upward. （ C） backward technology. （ D） mountains taking up land space. 38 When Otis came up with the idea of a lift, （ A） he sold it to the architects and builders immediately. （ B） the Egyptians used it to build the Pyramids. （ C） it was accepted favorably by the public. （ D） most people had doubt about its safety. 39 Which of
