The act of writing tums out to require hundreds of mini-decisions, and it is the existence of these that distinguishes clear, exact policies from fuzzy ones. Second, the documents will communicate the decisions to others. The manager will be continually amazed that policies he took for common knowledge are totally unknown by some member of his team. Since his fundamental job is to keep everybody going in the ( )direction, his chief daily task will be communication, not decision-making, and his documents will be immensely ( ) this load.Finally, a manager's documents give him a data base and checklist. By reviewing them(请作答此空) he sees where he is, and he sees what changes of emphasis or shifts in direction are needed. The task of the manager is to develop a plan and then to realize it. But only the written plan is precise and communicable. Such a pl an consists of documents on what, when, how much,where, and who.

    为什么要有正式的文档?首先,书面记录决策是必要的。只有记录下来,分歧才会明朗,矛盾才会突出。书写这项活动需要上百次的细小决定,正是由于它们的存在,人们才能从令人迷惑的现象中得到清晰、确定的策略。第二,文档能够作为同其他人的沟通渠道。项目经理常常会不断发现,许多理应被普遍认同的策略,完全不为团队的一些成员所知。正因为项目经理的基本职责是使每个人都向着相同的方向前进,所以他的主要工作是沟通,而不是做出决定。这些文档能极大地减轻他的负担。最后,项目经理的文档可以作为数据基础和检查列表。通过周期性的回顾,他能清楚项目所处的状态,以及哪些需要重点进行更改和调整。项目经理的任务是制订计划,并根据计划实现。但是只有书面计划是精确和可以沟通的。计划中包括了时间、地点、人物、做什么、资金。这些少量的关键文档封装了一些项目经理的工作。如果一开始就认识到它们的普遍性和重要性,那么就可以将文档作为工具友好地利用起来,而不会让它成为令人厌烦的繁重任务。通过遵循文档开展工作,项目经理能更清晰和快速地设定自己的方向。

  • 第6题:

    Popular British author,Charles Dickens′(1812--1870)family could hardly make ends meet.They could only afford to send one of their six children to school.Dickens was not that child.His parents chose to send a daughter,who had a talent for music,to an academy.Then at the age of 12,Dickens′life took another turn for the worse.
    His father,a clerk,was placed in prison for unpaid debts.And,being the oldest male left at home,Dickens took up work at a factory.His horrible experience there became the fuel for his future writing.His father was freed three months later and inherited a small amount of money.Dickens was then sent to school.
    From 1836 to 1837,he wrote a monthly series of stories.Thus The Pickwick,Papers,came into being,which brought fame to him.
    Throughout his career,Dickens covers various situations in his novels.He wrote about the miserable lives of the poor in Oliver Twist,the French Revolution in Tale of Two Cities,and social reform in Hard Times.He also wrote David Copperfield,a book thought to be modeled on his own life.
    "I do not write bitterly or angrily,for I know all these things have worked together to make me what I am,"he once said.His difficult childhood did indeed shape the person he became,as well as his writing career.There are shades of young Dickens in many of his most beloved characters,including David Copperfield and Oliver Twist.
    Like the author,all these characters come from poor beginnings and are able to rise above their setbacks and achieve success."Minds,like bodies,will often fall into an ill-conditioned state from too much comfort,"he once wrote.On June 9th,1870,aged 58,Dickens died,leaving one unfinished work.The words on his tombstone read:"He was a sympathizer to the poor,the suffering and the oppressed,and by his death,one of England′s greatest writers is lost to the world."

    The underlined word"shades"in the passage means

    A.symbols
    B.examples
    C.signs
    D.reminders

    答案:D
    解析:
    考情点拨:词义猜测题。应试指导:shade的意思为“(人物、事情、时间的)痕迹,影子”,与reminder“使人回忆起某事的事物”意思相近。

    D

    Spelling and Writing
    There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling.No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill.
    There are , however , vastly different ideas about how to teach it , or how much priority(优先)it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is,how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling?
    If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher's interest,clearly a bright child will be likely to"play safe".He will tend to write only words within his spelling range,choosing to avoid adventurous language .That's why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.
    I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal ex- perience:"This work is terrible!There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible(难以辨认的)."It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil's technical abilities in writing,but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay,which contamned some beautiful expressions of the child's deep feelings.The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors,but if his priorities had centered on the child's ideas,an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement.
