34、inute to read Questions 110./I（分数：10.00）(1).Employees today work shorter hours but take longer vacation than in 1979.（分数：1.00）A.正确B.错误 解析：听力原文1-10 According to a recent survey, employees in many companies today work longer hours than employees did in 1979. They also take shorter vacations than emplo

35、yees in 1979 took. It seems that Americans are working harder today than ever before. Or are they? A management consultant, Bill Meyer, decided to find out. For three days, he observed an investment banker hard at work. Meyer wrote down everything the banker did during his long workdaythe banker wor

36、ked 80 hours a week. At the end of the three-day period, Meyer reviewed the bankers activities with him. What did they find out? They discovered that the man spent 80% of his time doing busy work. For example, he attended unnecessary meetings, made redundant telephone calls, and spent time packing a

37、nd unpacking his two big briefcases. Apparently, many people believe that the more time a person spends at work, the more she or he accomplishes. However, the connection between time and productivity is not always positive. In fact, many studies indicate that after a certain point, anyones productiv

38、ity and creativity begin to decrease. Furthermore, it is not always easy for individuals to realize that their performance is failing off. Part of the problem is understandable. When employers evaluate employees, they often consider the amount of time on the job in addition to job performance. Emplo

39、yees know this. Consequently, they work longer hours and take less vacation time than they did nine years ago. Although many working people can do their job effectively during a regular 40-hour work week, they feel they have to spend more time on the job after normal working hours so that the people

40、 who can promote them will see them. A group of headhunters (people who search out executive personnel for companies) were asked their opinion about a situation. They had a choice of two candidates for an executive position with an important company. The candidates bad comparable qualifications for

41、the job. For example, they were both reliable. One could do the job well in a 40-hour work week. The other would do the same job in an 80-hour week just as well. According to a headhunting expert, the 80-hour-a-week candidate would get the job. The time this candidate spends on the job may encourage

42、 other employees to spend more time at work, too. Employers believe that if the employees stay at work later, they may actually do more work. People do not work long hours only for more money. In such fields as advertising, show business, and journalism, the glamour and publicity are worth more than

43、 any monetary benefit. On the other hand, many employees are not willing to spend so much extra, unproductive time at the office. Once they finish their work satisfactorily, they want to relax and enjoy themselves. For these people, the solution is to find a company that encourages people to do both
