7、e from Frank Becker, a professor at Cornell University who studies the pattern of office work.

8、ultants trying to make companies more productive by linking new office technology to a better understanding of how employees work. The forecasts of a decade ago - that computers would in- crease office productivity, reduce white-collar payrolls and help the re- maining staff to work better - have pr
9、oved much too hopeful.Mr Becker predicts that the central office will become mainly a place where workers from satellite and home-based offices meet to discuss ideas and to reaffirm their loyalty to fellow employees and the company. This will require new thoughts about the layout of office buildings
10、. Now, spaces for copying machines, coffee rooms, meetings and reception areas usually come second to the offices in which people spend most of the day working. Mr Becker sees these common areas gradually becoming the heart of an office.Managers, says Mr Becker, will also have to abandon their long-
11、cherished notion that a productive employee is an employee who can be seen. Appearing on time and looking busy will soon become irrelevant. Technology and new patterns of office use will make companies judge people by what they do, not by where they spend their tirae.That does not mean the end of th
12、e office, just its transformation into a social centre. New ideas about offices are catching on elsewhere. Digital Equipment Corps subsidiary in Finland has equipped offices with reclining chairs and stuffed sofas to make them more comfortable and conducive to informal conversations and the swapping
13、 of ideas. Companies such as Apple and General Electric are experimenting along similar lines.Steelcase, a manufacturer of office furniture, is one of the firms keenest to experiment with new office layouts and designs.

14、leted in 1989. It is designed around a series of office “neighbourhoods“ that put market- ing, manufacturing and design people close to each other so that they can find it easier to discuss ideas and solve problems. Employees on different floors can see one another through glass, and easily go from
15、floor to floor via escalator.Top managers work in a cluster of offices that are wrapped around an atrium in the middle of the building, rather than occupying the usual suite of top-floor offices.

27、for all in all offices. 1st man: I agree entirely. And I think the management should be firm on this. It should be abolished on the firms premises. 2nd woman: Now wait a minute. I cant say I share your views on that. The staff should be asked to vote first. 2nd man: Now, thats just what I was thinki
28、ng. We dont live in a dictatorship, you know. I think grown people should be allowed to decide for themselves if they want to smoke or not. 3rd man: Maybe, but dont you think non-smokers health can suffer if the smokers are allowed to continue? 3rd woman: Quite right, I couldnt agree more. And it mi
29、ght also be a way of educating people to live and work in a more healthy fashion. Conversation 2 1st man: You know what, I think all companies should offer their employees free lunches. 1st woman: Quite right, I couldnt agree more with that. After all if we have to work here all day and have no time
30、 to go home in the lunch hour its only fair. 2nd man: I can see what you mean. But what happens if the canteen food doesnt suit you? Or just isnt tasty? 2nd woman: Thats a good point. But I still think free lunches are a good idea. The company should have to give the employee the money to buy their
31、own, if the lunches are not satisfactory. 3rd man: Yeah, Im all in favour of that. The company made very high profits last year They can afford it. 4tb man: I couldnt agree more. They could offer a wide variety of dishes to suit all tastes. It would be only fair. 3rd woman: Hm, I see things rather d
32、ifferently myself. I would like my lunch hour left to myself to decide where and what I eat. Conversation 3 1st man: Its quite clear that overtime should be abolished so that people without jobs can find work. 1st woman: Yes, Im all in favour of that. It would mean that lots of extra jobs could be c
33、reated. 2nd man: Well, my opinion, for what its worth, is that the employers are not prepared to take on additional staff. They say it would be too expensive. 2nd woman: Now, thats just what I was thinking. And another thing. If overtime is cut, itll simply mean that well have to, work twice as hard
34、 in normal working hours for the same money. 3rd man: I dont think its a good idea either. The people who are unemployed are not necessarily the ones who have the skills to do our jobs. 4th man: Perhaps, but dont you think we need to demonstrate to the management that we are prepared to consider alt
35、ernatives to increased overtime. Anyway, my wife and family are sick of not seeing me as much as they could. 3rd woman: Thats a good point and we should also emphasize that the company should take on unemployed people and retrain them in the necessary skills they might not possess. Conversation 4 1st man: You know, I believe that we managers should have far more control over what employees do. 1st woman: You know, thats exactly what I think. We need to know what work they are doing at every p
