2、ssages carefully and decide on the best choice.Passage 1One silly question I simply cannot tolerate is How do you feel? Usually the question is asked of a man in action - a man walking along the street, or busily working at his desk. So what do you expect him to say? Hell probably say, Fine, Im an r

3、ight. But you have put a hug a his ear-maybe now he is not sure. If you are his good friend, you may have seen something on his face, or in his walk, that he over-looked that morning. It makes him worrying a little. He looks in a mirror to see if everything is all right, while you go merrily on your

4、 way asking someone else, How do you feel?Every question has its time and place. Its perfectly acceptable, for instance, to ask How do you feel? if you are visiting a close friend in the hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying to take a train or sitting at his desk working, its

5、 no time to ask him that silly question.When George Bernard Shaw, the famous British writer of plays was in his eighties, someone asked him, How do you feel? Shaw put him in his place.

9、how to make their workers more productive. Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied. But do more varied jobs lead to greater productivity? The evidence shows that while variety certainly makes the workers life more enjoyable, it does not actually make him work harder. As far as incr

10、easing productivity is concerned, then, variety is not an important factor.Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important. There is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modem factory with its c
