It’s not difficult to set targets for staff. It is much harder,【C1】________, to understand their negative consequences. Most work-related behaviours have multiple components.【C2】________one and the others become distorted.
Travel on a London bus and you’ll【C3】________see how this works with drivers. Watch people get on and show their tickets. Are they carefully inspected? Never. Do people get on without paying? Of course! Are there inspectors to【C4】________that people have paid? Possibly, but very few. And people who run for the bus? They are【C5】________. How about jumping lights? Buses do so almost as frequently as cyclists.
Why? Because the target is【C6】________. People complained that buses were late and infrequent.
【C7】________, the number of buses and bus lanes were increased, and drivers were【C8】________or punished according to the time they took. And drivers hit their targets. But they【C9】________hit cyclists. If the target was changed to【C10】________, you would have more inspectors and more sensitive pricing. If the criterion changed to safety, you would get more【C11】________drivers who obeyed traffic laws. But both these criteria would be at the expense of time.
There is another【C12】________: people become immensely inventive in hitting targets. Have you【C13】________ that you can leave on a flight an hour late but still arrive on time? Tailwinds? Of course not! Airlines have simply changed the time a【C14】________is meant to take. A one-hour flight is now billed as a two-hour flight.
The【C15】________of the story is simple. Most jobs are multidimensional, with multiple criteria. Choose one criterion and you may well【C16】________others. Everything can be done faster and made cheaper, but there is a【C17】________. Setting targets can and does have unforeseen negative consequences.
This is not an argument against target-setting. But it is an argument for exploring consequences first. All good targets should have multiple criteria【C18】________critical factors such as time, money, quality and customer feedback. The trick is not to【C19】________just one or even two dimensions of the objective, but also to understand how to help people better【C20】________the objective.
【C17】
选项
A、task
B、secret
C、product
D、cost
答案
D
解析
本题考查名词辨析。本名词作表语,且本填空所在的句子处于一个由but引导的转折句中,即Everything can be done faster and made cheaper, but there is a________. 根据前句中的信息“所有事情都可以做得又快又省钱”,则but之后的信息一定要和faster、cheaper构成反义,本题最佳答案一定是D项cost(代价)。
