问题     Students who score high in achievement needs tend to make higher grades in college than those who score low. When degree aptitude for college work, as indicated by College Entrance Examination Board Tests, is held constant, engineering students who score high in achievement needs tend to make higher grades in college than the aptitude test scores would indicate.
    We can define this need as the habitual desire to do useful work well. It is a salient influence characteristic of those who need little supervision. Their desire for accomplishment is a stronger motivation than any stimulation the supervisor can provide. Individuals who function in terms of this drive do not "bluff" in regard to a job that they fail to do well.
    Some employees have a strong drive for success in their work; others are satisfied when they make a living. Those who want to feel that they are successful have high aspiration for themselves. Thoughts concerning the achievement drive are often prominent in the evaluations made by the typical employment interviewer who interviews college seniors for executive training. He wants to find out whether the senior has a strong drive to get ahead or merely to hold a job. Research indicates that some who do get ahead have an even stronger drive to avoid failure.
What is the main subject of this passage?
选项
答案individual motivation for work
解析 要找一篇文章的主题，必须首先对全文有所了解。本题的答案是不可能从某句话或某一段落能够找得到的。这就需要有全局观念，要有概括能力，要从关键词中找答案。文章的第一段主要说明了有进取心的学生往往考分较高，这种进取心来自一种动力(motivation)。第二段主要说明那些有强烈愿望取得好成绩的人都有一种很强的motivation，这种积极性或原动力是不需要有人监督的。第三段最后一句话高度概括了这一段落的中心意思。然后，把三段的主要内容融合在一起考虑，就不难得出这样的结论：individual motivation for work。
