51. What does the author say companies should do in the context of remote work?
- A. Reform performance evaluation.
- B. Rethink the organizational fundamentals.
- C. Reexamine its effects on employees' behaviors.
- D. Reflect on its differences from working in the office.
答案:A
答案句:Organizations should reconsider the appropriateness of their performance evaluation procedures in light of the shift to remote work.
参考译文:组织应该根据向远程工作的转变,重新考虑其绩效评估程序的适当性。
定位线索:题干“companies should do in the context of remote work”→答案句“Organizations should reconsider...performance evaluation procedures”;文中“reconsider”对应选项A“Reform”。
解析:题干问作者认为公司在远程工作背景下应该做什么。答案句直接指出组织应该重新考虑绩效评估程序,这与选项A“改革绩效评估”同义。选项B“重新思考组织基础”范围过大,选项C和D在原文中未提及。
52. What should be prioritized in assessing employees' remote work?
- A. The quantity of their output.
- B. The length of their work time.
- C. The quality of their contribution.
- D. The flexibility of their work schedules.
答案:C
答案句:This means that work should be measured in terms of the quality of the work, not just the quality of the process.
参考译文:这意味着工作应该以工作的质量来衡量,而不仅仅是过程的质量。
定位线索:题干“prioritized in assessing employees' remote work”→答案句“work should be measured in terms of the quality of the work”;文中“quality of the work”对应选项C“The quality of their contribution”。
解析:题干问评估员工远程工作时应优先考虑什么。答案句明确说工作应以质量衡量,选项C“贡献的质量”是对此的同义转述。选项A“产出数量”是原文提到的“output alone”的陷阱,选项B“工作时间长度”和D“工作日程灵活性”在原文中未提及。
