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.
【C19】
选项
A、attempted
B、tended
C、chose
D、intended
答案
B
解析
考查动词辨析。下文说的是工人一周的表现变化——在前几天会很勤奋,经过一个稳定期后,在一周的末尾就会懒散下来。显然这是一种无形的规律,因此选B.tended,tend to do sth.“倾向于做某事”。attempt“尝试”;choose“选择”;intend“打算,想要”,均不符合语境。
