Sometimes, people simply do not realize they are being ill mannered. Take Ted, for example. He prides himself on speaking his mind, and has something to say on everything. But his frankness is often extremely embarrassing.
He is incapable of saying, " I thought that last advertising campaign had a lot of good ideas in it, but perhaps next time we could give the copy more vitality(活力). " Instead, he would say, " That campaign was a disaster. A child of three could have done better !"
The fact that he is often right does not help. Other employees dislike his manner even more, but he is too insensitive to notice.
Another character among the list of ill-mannered employees is Sally, who seems to regard just being at work as a severe punishment
. Everything is done unwillingly. Asking her to do a task beyond her basic job description is often not worth the trouble. It will be done, but only half-heartedly.
Fergus is just the opposite. He shows an over-familiarity to his boss. When an important visitor is shown into the manager’s office, Fergus cannot take the hint and leave. Instead he will attempt to take part in the conversation, declaring, "You can talk in front of me. Henry and I don’t have many secrets, do we?" Over the years Fergus has fallen behind his former equal. But he seeks to maintain the same close relationship that he imagines existed in their younger days.
Which of the following is true about Sally?
选项
A、She thinks it’s unfair to have so much work to do.
B、She is unhappy to help others.
C、She hates being ordered about.
D、She does everything half-heartedly.
答案
C
解析
文章第三段提到了Sally把工作当作为一种很严厉的惩罚。她在做每件事情的时候都是不情愿的,表明她不愿意被人指使着去工作。因此选择C选项。这里请注意D选项的干扰,文章中提到了sally做有些事情的时候是half—heartedly,但并不是所有的事情,而是a task beyond her basic job description。因此D选项是扩大了范围。一般来说含有绝对化内容的选项都不是正确答案。文章最后一段倒数第二句提到,多少年来,之前跟Fergus同辈的人都跑到了他的前面,这说明他的职位一直没有提升
