GWD 6-21

An overwhelming proportion of the most productive employees at SaleCo’s regional offices work not eight hours a day, five days a week, as do other SaleCo employees, but rather ten hours a day, four days a week, with Friday off. Noting this phenomenon, SaleCo’s president plans to increase overall productivity by keeping the offices closed on Fridays and having all employees work the same schedule—ten hours a day, four days a week.>>

>>

Which of the following, if true, provides the most reason to doubt that the president’s plan, if implemented, will achieve its stated purpose?>>

>>

A. Typically, a SaleCo employee’s least productive hours in the workplace are the early afternoon hours.>>

B. None of the employees who work four days a week had volunteered to work that schedule, but all were assigned to it by their supervisors.

C. Working ten hours a day has allowed the most productive employees to work two hours alone each day in their respective offices relatively undisturbed by fellow employees.

D. Employees at SaleCo are compensated not on the basis of how many hours a week they work but on the basis of how productive they are during the hours they are at work.

E. Those SaleCo employees who have a four-day workweek do not take any of their office work to do at home on Fridays.

答案是C, C是什么意思呢,怎么能构成削弱呢?多谢大师指点!

C的意思是不是说员工每天有两个小时的时间是单独工作,因此生产力不一定会提高?

 我觉得这道答案应该是B啊。

C只说了work two hours alone each day in their respective offices relatively undisturbed by fellow employees, 并没有说undisturbed by fellow employees是造成他们more productive的原因。

而B是说他们是被their supervisors安排工作,是由于supervisors基于某种原因来安排这种他因(可能是因为某些工作必须在星期1-4x10小时干)造成了他们be more productive;而当所有employee都这样时,显然这种他因显然不存在了,自然不能推出more productive。

大家觉得有没有道理?

如果选b应该是没有“工作五天的人”同意工作四天,不是没有"工作四天的人".

因为改变的是一般员工的时间,不是有效率的员工的时间。

我做这道题是把选项全看了一遍才选出来的,因为abde明显不对,abde都排除了才选

了c。我想c的意思就是说由于工作安排得改变,使得那些最有生产力的雇员可以在他

们的单间办公室里每天只工作两个小时,(我们不要管为什么工作安排得改变有这种

效果,只要他这么说就这么认为)。题目本来是想通过实行新的安排increase

overall productivity,可是这种新的安排虽然减少了星期五办公室成本的耗费却使

最有效率的员工工作效率降低,当然削弱了题目。

对d有一些疑问,我觉得d也是能引起doubt的,只不过doubt的程度不如c,不知道nn们怎么看?因为d说职工们的薪水只与productive有关,与工作时间无关,所以改变工作时间不能对职工有吸引力,因此也不能增加productive。

不知道这样想对不对,有点绕进去了,各位给盏明灯啊?
