The following paragraphs are given in a wrong order. For Questions 1-5, you are required to reorganize these paragraphs into a coherent article by choosing from the list A-G to fill in each numbered box. The first and the last paragraphs have been placed for you in Boxes.
[A] I just don’t know how to motivate them to do a better job. We’re in a budget crunch and I have absolutely no financial rewards at my disposal. In fact, we’ 11 probably have to lay some people off in the near future. It’s hard for me to make the job interesting and challenging because it isn’t—it’s boring, routine paperwork, and there isn’t much you can do about it.
[B] Finally, I can’t say to them that their promotions will hinge on the excellence of their paperwork. First of all, they know it’s not true. If their performance is adequate, most are more likely to get promoted just by staying on the force a certain number of years than for some specific outstanding act. Second, they were trained to do the job they do out in the streets, not to fill out our forms. All through their career it is the arrests and interventions that get noticed.
[C] I’ve got a real problem with my officers. They come on the force as young, inexperienced men, and we send them out on the street, either in cars or on a beat. They seem to like the contact they have with the public, the action involved in crime prevention, and the apprehension of criminals. They also like helping people out at fires, accidents, and other emergencies.
[D] Some people have suggested a number of things like using conviction records as a performance criterion. However, we know that’s not fair—too many other things are involved. Bad paperwork increases the chance that you lose in court, but good paperwork doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll win. We tried setting up team competitions based on the excellence of the reports, but the guys caught on to that pretty quickly. No one was getting any type of reward for winning the competition, and they figured why should they labor when there was no payoff.
[E] The problem occurs when they get back to the station. They hate to do the paperwork, and because they dislike it, the job is frequently put off or done inadequately. This lack of attention hurts us later on when we get to court. We need clear, factual reports. They must be highly detailed and unambiguous. As soon as one part of a report is shown to be inadequate or incorrect, the rest of the report is suspect. Poor reporting probably causes us to lose more cases than any other factor.
[F] So I just don’t know what to do. I’ve been groping in the dark in a number of years. And I hope that this seminar will shed some light on this problem of mine and help me out in my future work.
[G] A large metropolitan city government was putting on a number of seminars for administrators, managers and / or executives of various departments throughout the city. At one of these sessions the topic to be discussed was motivation—how we can get public servants motivated to do a good job. The difficulty of a police captain became the central focus of the discussion.
选项
答案
C
解析
(一)迅速浏览全文,概括各个段落的大意。
[A]警察局长说出了不能鼓励他们把工作做好的原因。
[B]警察局长说明为什么不能告诉他们:他们的提升将会依据他们优秀的文案工作。
[C]警察局长开始讲述问题的起因。
[D]说明为什么有些建议不能实施。
[E]主要谈警察不喜欢文案工作所带来的后果。
[F]警察局长的结束语。
[G]引出“警察局长”的问题。
(二)将选项重新组合归类,结合已经固定的段落,把握文章主旨和结构。
由各选项段落大意可知,全文是在谈论一个警察局长所遇到的问题。所以按事情发展顺序来排列选项,即提出问题、分析问题、解决问题的模式来排列。经过上述分析,很明显,G为开头,引出问题。F为结尾,希望解决问题。那么中间怎么排列呢?我们再来理理思绪。目前还有A、B、C、D、E这些选项不能定。由段落大意我们可以知道,A、B一组,C、E一组。而D项具体放在哪里,要由文章的整体布局决定。
(三)结合各段中的特征词,理顺各段的逻辑顺序。
由于文章首尾段已经给出,因此,首先要阅读首尾段,归纳语篇的基本结构,找出答题的线索。首段说的是整个文章的背景,一个大都市的市政厅举行全市各部门管理、行政人员的研讨会,其中有一个研讨会的主题是如何发动公务员做好工作。这个研讨会上一个警察局长的难题成了讨论的焦点。尾段是一个引语,很明显,这是发言的总结句。结合第一段的内容可以知道,引号里的话是警察局长的话,而整篇文章主要讲的是他面临的难题。
接着根据每段的第一句话,判断哪一段是发言的起始段。C段第一句话直截了当地点出话题:I’ve got a real problem with my officers,而且与首段的最后一句The difficulty of a police captain became the central focus of the discussion连接自然,因为首段的尾句提到了警察局长的difficulty.后面的段落肯定会对这一困难作出解释,因此C段中的problem和首段的difficulty呼应,应当是发言的起始段。
C段的第一句话I’ve got a real problem with my officers和后面的句子They come on the force as young….accidents,and other emergencies两者在语义上是转折的。作者没有直接说警员们的问题是什么,而是在提出问题后先对他们进行了赞扬,但赞扬过后肯定要提出存在的问题是什么。按逻辑顺序,下一段落应该提出职员中存在的问题。按照这样的思路,可以发现下一段选E连接最自然。C段先表扬职员对公众的事积极、热心,但是“The problem occurs when they get back to the station”。同时,从词汇衔接上来看,E段中的单词get back和上一段落中的out构成了对应关系,说明了警员们在警局内外的不同表现,因此从这两个方面来看,E项排在C项后面。
选项E主要陈述了警员们存在的问题以及导致的后果:They hate to do the paperwork…than any other factor。根据选项E最后一句话的语义,接下来作者要谈论的问题一定和此问题有关,因此可以对比剩余的三个选项A、B和D,首先可以排除D项,Some people have suggested a number of things like using conviction records as a performance criterion…,因为这个选项提出了评判警员的标准,是一个解决问题的办法,和前面提到的问题以及导致的结果在语义上不衔接。比较选项A和B,选项A的首句I just don’t know how to motivate them to do a better job,提出了警察局长在这个问题上的困惑,单词better是一个比较级,和前一个段落末句中的poor相呼应,因此A项应该排在E项后面。
从语义上来看,选项A是在说明警长所遇到的问题和困惑,能够和选项A衔接的现在只剩下B和D。选项B是解释无法实施解雇措施;选项D是说将撰写报告作为警员表现标准没有效果,可以看出,B和上段联系更为紧密,说了措施后马上就说出这种措施的不可实施的方面。
现在只剩下选项D。从文章最后一段,即选项F来看,此选项主要叙述的是警长向大家求助的信息,而选项D的开头两句Some people have…that’s not fair—too many other things are involved是说虽然有人提出了建议,但这些措施是不可能被实施的。因为措施无效才会向别人求助,从逻辑关系看,选项D和最后一段,即选项F形成了因果关系,因此D项排在F项之前。也即文章的顺序是G-C-E-A-B—D—F。
(四)安排好的顺序通读全文,发现全文连贯、逻辑一致,因此答案正确。
