In recent years many countries of the world have been faced with the problem of how t

o make their workers more productive. Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied (多种多样的). But do more varied jobs lead to greater productivity? The evidence shows that while variety certainly makes the worker's life more enjoyable, it does not actually make him work harder. As far as increasing productivity is concerned, then, variety is not an important factor..

(80) Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important. There is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modem factory with its complicated machinery which must be used in a fixed way. Thus, although freedom of choice may be important, usually very little can be done to create it.

Another important consideration is how much a 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 a large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his line. It would seem that not only is degree of the worker's contribution an important factor, therefore, it is also one we can do something about. To what extent does more money lead to greater productivity? The workers themselves certainly think this is 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 make their jobs more interesting, they will want neither more money nor shorter working hours.

Varied jobs, in writer's opinion, will ______.

A.offer greater productivity

B.drive workers to work harder

C.make workers more productive

D.make worker's life more enjoyable, but do not make them more hardworking

根据以下内容回答题:The greatest recent social changes have been in the lives of women.Duri
ng the twentieth century there has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion of a woman’s life spent in caring for the children.A woman’marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties,and would be likely to have seven or eight children,of whom four or five lived tiU they were five years old.By the time the youngest was fifteen,the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect.to live a further twenty years,during which custom,opportunity and health made it unusual for her to get paid work.Today women marry younger and have fewer children.Usually a woman’s youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five years old and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty.Even while she has the care of children,her work is lightened by household appliances and convenience foods. This important change in woman’s life-pattern has only recendy begun to have its full effect on women"s economic position.Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity,and most of them took a full time job.However,when they married,they usually left work at once and never returned to it.Today the school leaving age is sixteen,many girls stay at school after that age,and though women tend to marry younger,more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born.Very many more afterwards retum to full or part-time work.Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage,with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life,aid with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money,and running the home,according to the abilities and interests of each of them.

According to the passage,it is now quite usual for women to__________ .

A.stay at home after leaving school

B.marry men younger than themselves

C.start work until retirement at 60

D.marry while still at school

Mountain climbers around the world dream about going up Mountain Everest (珠穆朗玛峰) . It

Mountain climbers around the world dream about going up Mountain Everest (珠穆朗玛峰) . It is the highest mountain in the world. But many people who have climbed the mountain have left waste material that is harming the environment.

A team of Americans is planning the largest clean-up effort ever on Mountain Everest. They will make the risky trip up the mountain next month.

The team of eight Americans will be guided by more than twenty Sherpas of Nepal (尼泊尔夏尔巴人).Their goal is to remove all the trash they see. They will spend two months cleaning up the mountain by gathering oxygen bottles, fuel containers, batteries, drink cans, human waste and other kinds of trash. They are expected to remove at least three tons of trash in large bags.

Team leader Robert Hoffman is making his fourth trip up the mountain. He says he hopes to bring Everest to the condition it was in before the first successful climb fifty years ago. He says he hopes the effort will influence other people to clean up the environment closer home.

Human waste on Everest is a major concern. So the clean-up team will take along newly development equipment to collect and treat human waste. Over the years, the waste articles have polluted the mountain. In the warm season when the ice melts, the polluted water flows to Nepali villages below. The problem has gotten worse in recent years because climbing Everest has become more popular.

When those Americans are planning the trip up Mountain Everest, they are concerned about______.

A.the success in climbing up the mountain

B.the environment pollution of the mountain

C.the equipment for their trip to the mountain

D.the risks facing the mountain climbers

A. EVEN WITHOUT INTERNATIONAL LINKSB. CHINESE STUDENTS AND ACADEMICSC. THE CRISIS ON ECO

A. EVEN WITHOUT INTERNATIONAL LINKS

B. CHINESE STUDENTS AND ACADEMICS

C. THE CRISIS ON ECONOMIC GROWTH

D. A STRONG RESEARCH SYSTEM

E. IN PART BECAUSE OF THIS

Education and academic quality can mean different things to different people, depending on their perspective, role and context and, {A; B; C; D; E}, quality is notoriously difficult to evaluate. The question of how to do this has been pursued for many years.

Nevertheless, the goal of improving educational quality is agreed by all and stimulated further by the recent worldwide economic downturn and the need to counteract the impact of {A; B; C; D; E} and prepare for economic recovery.

As the World Bank and UNESCO said 10 years ago: “The quality of knowledge generated within higher education institutions, and its availability to the wider economy, is becoming increasingly critical to national competitiveness.” They also rightly emphasized that “{A; B; C; D; E} at the national level opens up the possibility that substantial additional public benefits can be realized through international links.”

This is precisely why {A; B; C; D; E} should contribute to these global benefits, reforming and improving evaluation systems for educational and academic quality. Original and good research, especially in science, economics and social sciences, has a trickle-down effect on society. And it offers additional benefits {A; B; C; D; E}, though international collaboration and exchange of the best evaluation policy and practice can bring substantial advantages to all partners in relation to lessons learned elsewhere.
