14、g generally produces the best results. Thats partially because it appears people who set realistic goals actually work more efficiently, and exert more effort, to achieve those goals. What are far less understood by scientists, however, are the potentially harmful effects of goal-setting. There has

15、been surprisingly little research on how the practice may have contributed to the current economic crisis and unethical （不道德）behavior in general.“Goals are widely used and promoted as having really beneficial effects. And yet, the same motivation that can push people to exert more effort in a constr

16、uctive way could also motivate people to be more likely to engage in unethical behaviors,” says Maurice Schweitzer, an associate professor of operations and information management at Penns Wharton School. His paper, titled “Goals Gone Wild: The Systematic Side Effects of Over-Prescribing Goal Settin

17、g,” appears in the February issue of the Academy of Management Perspectives.“It turns out theres no economic benefit to just having a goal-you just get a psychological benefit and thats quite motivating in itself,” Schweitzer says. “But in many cases, goals have economic rewards that make them more

18、powerful.”A prime example Schweitzer and his colleagues give is the 2004 closing down of energy-trading titan（巨头）Enron, where managers used financial rewards to motivate salesmen to meet specific sales goals. The problem, Schweitzer says, is the actual trades were not earning money. Other studies ha

19、ve shown that pressing employees with unrealistic goals can force them to lie, cheat or steal. Such was the case, Schweitzer says, in the early 1990s when Sears imposed a sales target on its auto repair staff. It resulted in employees overcharging for work and completing unnecessary repairs on a com

20、panywide basis.Schweitzer admits his research run against a very large body of literature that praises the many benefits of goal-setting. Edwin A. Locke, from the University of Maryland, College Park, and Gary P. Latham, from the University of Toronto, write: “Goal setting is not going away. Organiz

21、ations cannot develop without being focused on their desired results any more than an individual can develop without goals to provide a sense of purpose.”The debate is likely to be popular on in future papers, and the practice of setting goals no doubt will continue. For now, though, the lesson seem

22、s to be to put more thought into setting goals. “They really do help to coordinate and motivate people. My idea would be to combine that with careful observation, a strong organizational culture, and make sure the goals that you use are going to be constructive and not significantly harm the organiz

23、ation,” Schweitzer says.51. What message does the author try to get across about goal-setting?A. Its role has been largely underestimated. B. The goal most people set are unrealistic. C. The goal increase peoples work efficiency. D. Its negative effects have long been ignored.52. What does Maurice S

24、chweitzer want to show by giving the example of Enron?A. Businesses are less likely to succeed without setting realistic goals.B. Goals with financial rewards have strong motivational power.C. Financial rewards ensure companies meet specific sales goals. D. Setting realistic goals can turn a failing

25、 business into success.53. How did Sears goal-setting affect its employees?A. They were forced to work more hours to increase their sales.B. They competed with one another to attract more customers.C. They turned to unethical practice to meet their sales target.D. The improved their customer service

26、 on a companywide basis.BThe largest campaign of killing rats in history is set to poison millions of rats on the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia. Scientists say the campaign planned for 2013 and 2014 will restore beautiful South Georgia to the position it once held as the worlds most importan

27、t nesting sites for seabirds.It was sailors in the late 18th century who unintentionally introduced rats to what had been a fresh environment. “If we can destroy the rats, at least 100 million birds will return to their home on South Georgia,” says Tony Martin, a biology professor at the University

28、of Dundee who was invited to lead the project.South Georgia is by far the largest island to get rid of animals that destroy native wildlife after being introduced deliberately or accidentally by people. Though rats and mice have done the most damage, cats, foxes, goats, deer, rabbits and other speci

29、es have been targeted in the campaigns around the world.South Georgia is seven times the size of New Zealands Campbell Island, currently the largest area ever killing rats. The successful war against Campbell Island rats was carried our in 2001 with 132 tons of poison dropped from five helicopters.“

30、New Zealand pioneered the techniques for ridding islands of rats and in fact our operation on South Georgia is based on New Zealands technology.” Says Martin. “Some New Zealanders will be helping our campaign, including our chief pilot, Peter Garden, who was also chief pilot for the projects at Campbell Island and Rat Island, in the Aleutian chain of the north Pacific.”The second and third stages in 2013 and 2014 will involve dropping as much as 300 tons of poison from the air onto every part of the island where rats might live.
