A friend of mine is a department manager at a large company. His secretary requested a 10% salary raise.
The problem was that 10% was a large raise compared to the 5% other employees had received. Was there a win-win(双赢)way out of this problem?
As they looked at the possibilities, several ideas appeared. The company starts work at 8 am and closes at 5 pm. The manager learned that his secretary got caught in heavy traffic every evening on the way home. They agreed to have her work from 7:30 am to 4:30 pm. This saved her at least 20-25 minutes driving time, a benefit to her at little or no loss to the company.
They then studied her job in detail. Before long they jointly developed a new idea which gave her more responsibilities, and, at the same time, more interesting work.
Both parties benefited from the changed arrangement of work. The raise itself was then discussed. A decision was made by agreeing on a 6% raise for three months and then an additional 2% later if the new responsibilities were properly performed.
Who will benefit from the new arrangement of work?
选项
A、All the employees in the company.
B、The company and the secretary.
C、The company only.
D、The secretary herself.
答案
B
解析
细节推断题。由题干中的benefit from thenew arrangement of work定位到文章最后一段第一句。该句提到,双方都能从新的工作安排中受益。这里的“双方”是指上文提到的公司和秘书。因此可以确定B)“公司和秘书”为本题的答案。
