Human Resources suggested that management undertake an incentive program. A plan was devised whereby every employee who arrived at work on time every day during the month of August would be eligible for a cash award. Within five days of the announcement, the number of late arrivals had declined to the lowest level the company had ever experienced. The company decided to extend the program so that employees who didn't miss any days of work for the rest of the year (exclusive of approved vacations) would also be eligible for a cash award. As a result, absenteeism declined dramatically. Stummering plans to continue the program into next year and is looking into making it permanent company policy. This successful program could easily be replicated at other companies. It worked for Stummering. It could work for you.
What was the problem at the Stummering Corporation?
A.Management
B.Absenteeism
C.Low pay
D.Unprofessional atmosphere

Often, employees fear that the evaluation will be a negative experience, This fear alone can result in defensiveness and tension, Tile manager must take pains to lessen the employees fear and make the evaluation a participatory(参与的)event. An employee who contributes ideas to his or her evaluation will be much more likely to agree with the outcome and be willing to follow the suggestions.
The employee evaluation system is to improve employee performance. While area8 needing improvement must be reviewed, this should always be done in the spirit of discovering goals the employee can work toward. This holds true for reviewing successes as well. While praise for past achievements may be used as a reward, at the time of the evaluation, the primary reason to look at the persons success is to determine areas in which he or she can continue to excel(擅长).
Perhaps the most effective way to make the evaluation a participatory event is to ask the employee to come prepared to the meeting. The employer and employee each should carefully review the job description prior to the evaluation meeting and should make notes on areas in which the employee had difficulty or has made a contribution. It is important that these notes be specific; "Does a good job" is not nearly as meaningful as "Increased productivity(生产率)by 35%".
Both parties should also draw up a short list of goals for the employee to achieve during the next evaluation period. Ideally, these goals should build upon the known strengths and successes of the employee. However, areas needing improvement must also be addressed.
According to the passage, employees being evaluated _________.
A.are often those who have newly obtained the job
B.often feel fearful and anxious
C.often have the feeling of being looked down upon
D.are often proud and confident

In particular, Dr Hwang claimed he had created 11 colonies of human embryonic stem ceils genetically matched to specific patients. He had already admitted that nine of these were bogus, but had said that this was the result of an honest mistake, and that the other two were still the real McCoy. A panel of experts appointed by the university to investigate the matter, however, disagreed. They found that DNA fingerprint traces conducted on the stem-cell lines reported in the paper had been manipulated to make it seem as if all 11 lines were tailored to specific patients. In fact, none of them matched the volunteers with spinal-cord injuries and diabetes who had donated skin cells for the work. To obtain his promising "results", Dr Hwang had sent for testing two samples from each donor, rather than a sample from the donor and a sample of the cells into which the donor's DNA had supposedly been transplanted.
The panel also found that a second claim in the paper — that only 185 eggs were used to create the 11 stem cell lines — was false. The investigators said the actual number of eggs used was far larger, in the thousands, although they were unable to determine an exact figure. The reason this double fraud is such a blow is that human embryonic stem-cell research has great expectations. Stem cells, which have not yet been programmed to specialise and can thus, in principle, grow into any tissue or organ, could be used to treat illnesses ranging from diabetes to Parkinson's disease. They might even be able to fix spinal-cord injuries. And stem cells cloned from a patient would not be rejected as foreign by his immune system.
Dr Hwang's reputation, of course, is in tatters. The university is now investigating two other groundbreaking experiments he claims to have conducted — the creation of the world's first cloned human embryo and the extraction of stem cells from it, and the creation of the world's first cloned dog. He is also in trouble for breaching ethical guidelines by using eggs donated by members of his research team.
And it is even possible that the whole farce may have been for nothing. Cloned embryos might be the ideal source of stem cells intended to treat disease, but if it proves too difficult to create them, a rough-and-ready alternative may suffice.
From the passage we may learn that Hwang Woo-suk ______.
A.made up all his experience
B.is a famous geneticists in Seoul National University
C.was an employee in Seoul National University
D.published an authentic paper in Science with his 24 colleagues

Date: August 8
Subject: An Addition to the Rules
Dear Mr. John Koza,
As you are aware, we had an unfortunate incident last week that an employee intentionally destroyed one of the company's computers. He has subsequently been let go. I looked over the list of the Employee Rules of Conduct that you drew up several years ago and found that it needs to be revised.
First of all, we need to add a clause about destruction of company property. I believe that the intentional destruction of company property should not only be grounds for immediate dismissal. I think that the offender should pay damages.
Also, there is no mention of pets at all in the Employee Rules of Conduct. I' ve noticed that a few of the office workers have brought their pets to the office. This is a distraction for the other employees and should not be tolerated at any time.
If you have any additions to the rules, please let me know. I would like the new set of rules to be distributed to the employees by next Wednesday. Please submit them to me by Tuesday for approval.
Yours sincerely,
Why does Mr. Robert Wright send an e-mail to Mr. John Koza?
A.To tell him about an employee who destroyed a computer
B.To make him sue for the damages
C.To tell him to revise some of the Employee Rules of Conduct
D.To tell him to change all of the Employee Rules of Conduct
