8、Workers Role in Management Traditionally, 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 t
9、heir decisions to their employees. At most, companies have provided suggestion boxes inwhich 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 compan

This is particularly true of plant closings, which may put thousands on the unemployment lines. Should workers, then, play a stronger role in ma
11、nagement? Workers should have 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 fivemillion workers were th
12、e victims of plant closings 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 mightbe able to suggest ways of improving producti

There ought to be representatives of the workers on the firms board of directors or other major policy m
14、aking groups. If rank-and-file workers are given a voice in the planning andmanagement 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 thr

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.Traditional workers showed no interest in management.ARightBWrongC

A chimpanzee named Washoe and born in Africa died of natural causes late last month at the age of 42 at a research center in the American state of Washington. Washoe had become known in
20、 the scientific community andaround the world for her ability to use American Sign Language. She was said to be the first non-human to learn a human language. Her skills also led to debate about primates and their ability to understand language. 2. Research scientists Allen and Beatrix Gardner began
21、 teaching Washoe sign language in 1966. In 1969, the Gardners described Washoes progress in a scientific report. The people who experimented with Washoe said she grew to understand about 250 words. For example,Washoe made signs to communicate when it was time to eat. She could request foods like app
22、les and bananas. She also asked questions like, Who is coming to play? Once the news about Washoe spread, many language scientists began studies of their own into this newand exciting area of research. The whole direction of primate research changed. 3. However, critics argued Washoe only learned to
23、 repeat sign language movements from watching her teachers. They said she had never developed true language skills. Even now, there are some researchers who suggest that primates learn sign language only by memory, and perform the signs only for prizes. Yet Washoes keepers disagree. Roger Fouts is a
24、 former student of the Gardners. He took Washoe to a research center in Ellensburg, Washington. There, Washoe taught sign language to three younger chimpanzees, which are still alive. 4. Scientists like private researcher Jane Goodall believe Washoe provided new information about the mental workings
25、 of chimpanzees. Today, there are not as many scientists studying language skills with chimps. 5. Debate continues about chimps understanding of human communication. Yet, one thing is sure - Washoe changed popular ideas about the possibilities of animal intelligence.Paragraph 1_AReason Why Not Many

Blame Friends Obesity can spread from person to person, much like a virus, researchers are rep
34、orting today. When one person gains weight, close friends tend to gain weight, too. Their study, published in The New England Journal of Medicine, involved a detailed analysis of a large social network of 12,067 people who were been closely followed for 32 from 1971 to 2003. The investigators knew w
35、ho were friends with whom as well as who was a spouse or sibling neighbor, and they knew how much each person weighed at various times over three decades.That let them reconstruct what happened over the years as individuals became obese. Did their friends also become obese? Did family members? Or ne
36、ighbors? The answer, the researchers report, was that people were most likely to become obese when a friend became obese. That increased a persons chances of becoming obese by 57 percent. There was no effect when a neighbor gained or lost weight, however, and family members had less influence than f
37、riends. It did not even matter if the friend was hundreds of miles away, the influence remained. And the greatest influence of all was between close mutual friends. There, if one became obese, the other had a 171 percent increased chance of becoming obese, too.The same effect seemed to occur for wei
38、ght loss, the investigators say. But since most people were gaining, not losing, over the 32 years, the result was, on average, that people grew fatter. Dr. Nicholas A. Christakis, a physician and professor of medical sociology at Harvard Medical School and a principal investigator in the new study,
39、 said one explanation was that friends affected each others perception of fatness. When a close friend becomes obese, obesity may not look so bad. You change your idea of what is an acceptable body type by looking at the people around you , Dr. Christakis said. The investigators say their findings c
40、an help explain why Americans have become fatter in recent years - each person who became obese was likely to drag along some friends. Their analysis was unique, Dr. Christakis said, because it moved beyond a simple analysis of one person and his or her social contacts and instead examined an entire
41、 social network at once, looking at how a persons friends friends, or a spouses siblings friends, could have aninfluence on a persons weight. The effects; he said, highlight the importance of a spreading process, a kind of social contagion, that spreads through the network. Of course, the investigat
42、ors say, social networks are not the only factors that affect body weight. There is a strong genetic component at work, too.Science has shown that individuals have genetically determined ranges of weights, spanning perhaps 30 or so pounds for each person. But that leaves a large role for the environ
43、ment in determining whether a persons weight is near the top of his or her range or near the bottom. Aspeople have gotten fatter, it appears that many are edging toward the top of their ranges. The question has been why. If the new research is correct, it may say that something in the environment se
44、eded what some call an obesity epidemic, making a few people gain weight. Then social networks let the obesity spread rapidly.Who had the greatest influence on people who became obese?ATheir friends.BTheir neighborsCTheir family members.DTheir colleagues.32、Which of the following statement about a f
45、riends influence is FALSE according to the report?AFriends had more influence than family members on people who became obese.BEven if the friend lives far away, the influence still remained.CPeople were not likely to lose weight when they have skinny friends.DThe greatest influence of all was betwee
46、n close mutual friends.33、According to Dr. Nicholas A. Christakis, what is the explanation for friends being the greatest influence?AFriends usually spend a lot of time together.BFriends share similar eating habits.CFriends are more important than family members.DFriends affected each others feeling
