The Worker's Role in Management
问题1.Traditional workers showed no interest in management.
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Not mentioned
答案：C
Traditionally, it has been the worker's role to work and management's role to manage. Managers have planned and directed the firm's operations with little thought to consulting the labor force. Managers have rarely felt compelled to obtain the workers` opinions or to explain their decisions to their employees.
问题2.In recent years many management specialists have been arguing for the worker's role in management with two major reasons.
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Not mentioned
答案：A
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 in the company and may be able to make significant contributions to its management. Furthermore, major company decisions profoundly affect workers and their dependents. This is particularly true of plant closings, which may put thousands on the unemployment lines. Should workers, then, play a stronger role in management?

As a further incentive, they must be given a share in the company's profits. This can be done through employee stockownership plans, 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.
