The rise of "temp" work has further magnified the decreasing rights and alienation of the worker. It is common corporate practice to phase out full-time employees and hire temporary workers to take on more workload in less time. When facing a pressing deadline, a corporation may pay $ 15~ $20 per hour for a temp worker, but the temp worker will only see $ 7 or $ 8 of that money. The rest goes to temp agency, which is usually a corporate chain, such as Kelly Services, that blatantly makes its profits off other people’s labor. This increases profits of the corporations because they can increase a workload, get rid of the employee when they’re finished, and not worry about paying benefits or unemployment for that employee. I have had to work with temps a few times in my current position, and the workers only want one thing—a full-time job with benefits. We really wanted to hire one temp I was working with, but we could not offer her a full-time job because it would have been a breach in our contract with the temp agency that employed her. To hire a temp full-time, we would have had to pay the agency over a thousand dollars. Through this practice and policy, the temp agency locks its temporary workers into a horrible new form of servitude from which the workers cannot break free.
Furthermore, corporate powers push workers to take on bigger workloads, work longer hours, and accept less benefits by instilling a paranoia in their workforce. The capitalist bosses assume dishonesty, disloyalty, and laziness amongst workers, and they breed a sense of guilt and fear through their assumptions. Where guilt doesn’t seep in, bitterness, anger, and depression take over, the highest priorities of Big Business are to increase profits and limit liabilities. Personal relations and human needs are last on their list of priorities. So what we see is a huge mass of people who are alienated, distempered, overworked, mentally and physically ill and who spend the vast majority of their time and energy on their basic survival. They are denied a chance to really "love," because they are forced to make profits for the capitalists in power.
Which of the following can NOT be listed as a reason for corporations’ hiring temporary workers and phasing out full-time employees?
选项
A、Corporations intend to leave more workload to temporary workers.
B、Temp workers are generally well-trained and can achieve high efficiency.
C、Corporations can reduce their production cost by employing temp workers.
D、Corporations can benefit a great deal from keeping a small full-time work force.
答案
B
解析
细节题。第一段第二句提到公司想让临时雇员在更少的时间内从事更多的劳动,A符合题意。第一段第五句说明这样可以增加公司的盈利。因为他们可以增加雇员的劳动量,在雇员完成工作后解雇他们而不必担心要为失业的雇员付钱,C符合题意。第一段倒数第二句说要雇个全职的临时工,我们得向公司的机构支付1 000多美元的费用,D符合题意。B所说内容在文章中没有提到,所以B为正确答案。
