Even in traditional offices, “the lingua franca of corporate America has gotten much more emotional and much more right-brained than it was 20 years ago,” said Harvard Business School professor Nancy Koehn. She started spinning off examples. “If you and I parachuted back to Fortune 500 companies in 1990, we would see much less frequent use of terms like journey, mission, passion. There were goals, there were strategies, there were objectives, but we didn’t talk about energy; we didn’t talk about passion.”
Koehn pointed out that this new era of corporate vocabulary is very “team”-oriented—and not by coincidence. “Let’s not forget sports—in male-dominated corporate America, it’s still a big deal. It’s not explicitly conscious; it’s the idea that I’m a coach, and you’re my team, and we’re in this together. There are lots and lots of CEOs in very different companies, but most think of themselves as coaches and this is their team and they want to win.”
These terms are also intended to infuse work with meaning—and, as Khurana points out, increase allegiance to the firm. “You have the importation of terminology that historically used to be associated with non-profit organizations and religious organizations: Terms like vision, values, passion, and purpose,” said Khurana.
This new focus on personal fulfillment can help keep employees motivated amid increasingly loud debates over work-life balance. The “mommy wars” of the 1990s are still going on today, prompting arguments about why women still can’t have it all and books like Sheryl Sandberg’s Lean In, whose title has become a buzzword in its own right. Terms like unplug, offline, life-hack, bandwidth, and capacity are all about setting boundaries between the office and the home. But if your work is your “passion,” you’ll be more likely to devote yourself to it, even if that means going home for dinner and then working long after the kids are in bed.
But this seems to be the irony of office speak: Everyone makes fun of it, but managers love it, companies depend on it, and regular people willingly absorb it. As Nunberg said, “You can get people to think it’s nonsense at the same time that you buy into it.” In a workplace that’s fundamentally indifferent to your life and its meaning, office speak can help you figure out how you relate to your work—and how your work defines who you are.

根据以下内容回答题:
The Olympic Games are the greatest festival of sport in the world．Every four years，a hundred or more countries send their best sportsmen to compete for the highest honors in sport．
As many as 6，000 people take part in over 20 sports．For the winners，there are gold medals and glory．But there is honor，t00，for all who compete，win or lose．That is the spirit of the Olympics--to take part is what matters．
The Olympic Games always start in a bright color and action．The teams of all the nations parade in the opening ceremony and march round the track．The custom is for the Greek team to march in first．For it was in Greece that the Olympics began．The team of the country where the Games are being held——the host country--marches in last．
The runner with the Olympic torch then enters the stadium and lights the flame．A sports-man from the host country takes the Olympic oath on behalf of all the competitors．The judges and officials also take an oath．After the sportsmen march out of the stadium，the host country puts on a wonderful display．
The competitions begin the next day．There are usually more than twenty sports in the Games．The mle is that there must be at least fifteen：The main events are in track and field，but it is a few days before these sports start．Each day the competitors take part in a different sport--riding，shooting，swimming，and cross-country runnin9．Points are gained for each event．Medals are awarded for the individual winners and for national teams．
More and more women are taking part in the games．They first competed in l900，in tennis and golf，which are no longer held in the Olympics．Women’s sw!mming events were in-troduced in 1912,but it was not until l928 that there were any track and field events for women．Now．they compete in all but half a dozen of the sports．In horse ridin9，shooting，and boat racing，they may compete in the same events as the men．
Why is there honor for the losers as well as for the winners？ 查看材料
A.Because failure is the mother of success．
B.Because losers need encouragement，too．
C.Because losers and winners should be equally treated．
D.Because what really matters is to take part in the Olympic Games．
