14、e human resources profession. keys ：关于员工评估和反馈的文章。一个组织内部的上下级沟通真的太重要了。第一题，说真正的反馈可以释放用在别处的资源。意思上真正的反馈可以让人腾出精力。答案是 E段的第一句： When judgement is replaced by feedback in the true sense, organizations will have a lot more time to devote to their customers and their business 。这题的意思还算比较明显，feedback in the true s

15、ense，就是 genuine feedback ，devote to their customers and the business,就是把资源释放在别的地方。第二题，说经理们是被期望着使员工工作得更有效率。答案是C段的最后一句：It is managements responsibility to ensure that the workers operate in a system that facilitates their performance.经理们的责任，也就是managers are expected to ， 有利于他们的表现，就是 enable 名师归纳总结 精品学习资

17、willing to divulge information. (人) 愿意透露消息的。专家们不愿意透露消息，也就是不能指望专家来facilitate。第四题，说商讨评估表现的方法是有利的。答案是在C段，有点分散。前面说 The measure has been worked out between the operators and their manager。这个措施是在操作者和经理们之间拟定的。between the operators and managers，也就是评估表现的方法是被商讨了的。后面介绍的情况都是这个 measure 有多么的好： is the basis of fee

20、onable 。第七题，说虽然有专家们的主张，管理层的结构阻止了真正的反馈。答案是A 段的这么一句： the simple fact of the matter is that the nature of hierarchy distorts the concept of feedback。管理层的机构，就是这句里提到的the nature of hierarchy，等级制的性质。这个单词在BEC阅读里常出现。distort，扭曲，就是选项里的prevent 。第八题，说在评估过程中投入了更多的努力。答案是A段的这么一句，有点隐晦：Now the practice is even more f

21、requent. This of course makes it all the more important how appraisal is conducted. 这个句子是紧跟上文的，the practice指的就是appraisal。评估的更频繁，评估是怎么进行的显得更加重要。认为更加重要了(makes it all the more important)，就会投入更多努力了。综合起来，这些的意思就是评估过程投入了更多的努力。不太容易看出来。名师归纳总结 精品学习资料 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -精心整理归纳 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 第 6 页，共 6 页 - - - - - - - - -
