It is logical to suppose that things like good labor relations, good working conditions, good wages and benefits, and job security motivate workers. But one expert, Frederick Herzberg argued that such conditions do not motivate workers, they are merely satisfiers. Motivators, in contrast, include things such as having a challenging and interesting job, recognition and responsibility. However, even with the development of computers and robotics, there are always plenty of boring, repetitive and mechanical jobs, and lots of unskilled people who have to do them. So how do managers motivate people in such jobs? One solution is to give them some responsibilities, not as individuals, but as part of a team. For example, some supermarkets combine office staff, the people who fill the shelves, and the people who work at the checkout into a team. And let them decide what product lines to stock, how to display them, and so on. Many people now talk about the importance of a company shared values or culture, with which all the staff can identify. For example, being the best hotel chain, or making the .best, the most user friendly, or the most reliable products in a particular field. Such values are more likely to motivate workers than financial targets, which ultimately only concern a few people. Unfortunately, there is only a limited number of such goals to go around. And by definition, not all the competing companies in an industry can seriously play in to be the best.
Questions:
What can actually motivate workers according to Frederick Herzberg?
What does the speaker say about jobs in the computer era?
What do some supermarkets do to motivate their employees?
Why does the speaker say financial targets are less likely to motivate workers?
选项
A、Many tedious jobs continue to be done manually.
B、More and more unskilled workers will lose jobs.
C、Computers will change the nature of many jobs.
D、Boring jobs will gradually be made enjoyable.
答案
A
解析
Question: What does the speaker say about jobs in the computer era?
本题是细节题。本题询问作者对电脑信息时代工作的看法。文章中提到However,even with the development of computers and robotics,there are always plenty of boring,repetitive and mechanical jobs,and lots of unskilled people who have to do them.(尽管电脑和机器人技术不断发展,还是存在那些无聊的、重复和机械的工作,需要那些没有一技之长的人完成它们)。选项A中tedious"无聊的",manually"手工做地",与原文相对应。B是说越来越多的没有一技之长的工人将失业;C是说计算机将会改变许多工作的性质;D是说枯燥的工作将会渐渐变得有趣,均与原文不符。
