Traditionally, it has been the worker's role to work and management's role to manage.
Managers have planned and directed the finds operations with little thought of consulting the labor force. Managers have rarely felt forced to obtain the worker's opinions or to explain their decisions to their employees. At most, companies have provided "suggestion boxes" in which workers could place ideas for improving procedures. In recent years, however, many management specialists have been arguing that workers are more than sellers of labor—they have a vital stake (利害关系) in the company and may be able to make significant contributions to its management. Furthermore, major company decisions affect workers and their dependants. This is particularly true of plant closings, which may put thousands on the unemployment lines. Should workers, then, play a stronger role in management?
Workers should have a role in management. At the very least, the labor force should be informed of major policy decisions. A common complaint among ordinary workers is the lack of information about company policies and actions. Between 1980 and 1985 about five million workers were the victims of plant closings and permanent layoffs (失业) , often with no warning. At least 90 days' notice ought to he given in such circumstances so that workers have time to adjust. Management should consult workers before closing a plant, because the workers might be able to suggest ways of improving productivity and reducing costs and might be willing to make concessions (妥协) that will help keep the plant operating.
It should become a general practice to include workers in some managerial decision making. There ought to be representatives of the workers on the firm's board of directors or other major policy-making groups. If ordinary workers are given a voice in the planning and management of the work flow, they will help to make improvements, their spirits will rise, and their productivity will increase. As a further incentive (激励), they must be given a share in the company's profits. This can be done through employee stock ownership plans (员工持股计划), bonuses, or rewards for efficiency and productivity. Finally, when a plant can no longer operate at a profit, the workers should be given the opportunity to purchase the plant and run it themselves.
1.What can we learn about managers from Paragraph l?

2.In recent years, many management specialists have been arguing that workers ________.
A. are not sellers of the products any longer
B. should have a say in management of the company
C. are less affected by company decisions than before
D. are able to make the final decisions for the company
3.According to the passage, what happened between 1980 and 1985?
A. Workers did not make necessary concessions.
B. Many companies were closed because of strikes.
C. Managers consulted workers before closing a plant.
D. About 5 million workers were laid off without advance notice.
4.If they are not given a voice in managerial decision making, workers ________.
A. cannot get a share in the company's profits
B. will not have the opportunity to purchase the plant
C. may lack the incentive to increase their productivity
D. can still get bonuses for efficiency and productivity
Is it possible to persuade mankind to live without war? War is an ancient institution which has existed for at least six thousand years. It was always bad and usually foolish, but in the past the human race managed to live with it. Modern creativity has changed this. Either man will abolish war, or war will abolish man. For the present, it is nuclear weapons that cause the most serious danger, but bacteriological (使用细菌的) or chemical weapons, may soon offer an even greater threat. If we succeed in abolishing nuclear weapons, our work will not be done. It will never be done until we have succeeded in abolishing war. To do this, we need to persuade mankind to look upon international problems in a new way, not by contests of force, in which the victory goes to the side which is the most skillful in killing people, but by arbitration (仲裁) according to agreed principles of law. It is not easy to change very old mental habits, but this is what must be attempted.
There are those who say that the adoption of this or that thought would prevent war. I believe this to be a big error. All thoughts are based on statements which are, at best, doubtful, and at worst, totally false. Their followers believe in them that they are willing to go to war in support them.
The movement of world opinion during the past few years has changed very largely such as we can welcome. It is believed that nuclear war must be avoided. Of course very difficult problems remain in the world, but the attitude towards them is a better one than it was several years ago. It has begun to be thought, even by the powerful men who decide whether we shall live or die, that people should reach agreements even if both sides do not find these agreements wholly satisfactory. It has begun to be understood that the important conflict nowadays is not between different countries, but between man and the atom bomb.
1.It is implied in the first paragraph that war now is ________.
A. as bad as in the past B. as necessary as in the past
C. worse than in the past D. not so dangerous as in the past
2.The underlined word "this" in Paragraph l probably refers to "________".
A. improving weapons B. abolishing war
C. solving international problems D. living a peaceful life
3.From Paragraph 2, we learn that the author ________.
A. is a supporter of some modem thoughts
B. has no doubt about the truth of any thought
C. believes the adoption of some thoughts could prevent war
D. does not think the adoption of any thought could stop war
4.What can be inferred about war according to the author?
A. It must be abolished if man wants to survive.
B. It is the only way to solve international problems.
C. It is impossible for the people to live without war.
D. It will be less dangerous because of the improvement of weapons.
