In 1924 America’s National Research Council sent two engineers to supervise a series of experiments at a telephone-parts factory called the Hawthorne Plant near Chicago. It hoped they would learn how stop-floor lighting【C1】______workers’ productivity. Instead, the studies ended【C2】______ giving their name to the "Hawthorne effect", the extremely influential idea that the very【C3】______of being experimented upon changed subjects’ behavior.
The idea arose because of the【C4】______behavior of the women in the plant. According to【C5】______of the experiments, their hourly output rose when lighting was increased, but also when it was dimmed. It did not【C6】______what was done in the experiment;【C7】______something was changed, productivity rose. A(n)【C8】______that they were being experimented upon seemed to be【C9】______to alter workers’ behavior【C10】______itself.
After several decades, the same data were【C11】______to econometric analysis. Hawthorne experiments has another surprise in store.【C12】______the descriptions on record, no systematic【C13】______ was found that levels of productivity were related to changes in lighting.
It turns out that the peculiar way of conducting the experiments may have led to【C14】______ interpretations of what happened.【C15】______, lighting was always changed on a Sunday. When work started again on Monday, output【C16】______rose compared with the previous Saturday and【C17】______to rise for the next couple of days.【C18】______, a comparison with data for weeks when there was no experimentation showed that output always went up on Mondays. Workers【C19】______to be diligent for the first few days of the week in any case, before【C20】______a plateau and then slackening off. This suggests that the alleged "Hawthorne effect" is hard to pin down.
【C3】
选项
A、truth
B、sight
C、act
D、proof
答案
C
解析
考查名词辨析。这里的that引导了一个同位语从句,目的是解释extremely。influential idea,空后的of being experimented upon是后置定语,very在这里是形容词,意思是“恰好是,正是”,因此只有C.act符合语境,指“被用来做实验的行为”。truth“事实”,sight“情景,景象”,proof“证据”,均不符合题意。
