     "Pay has little to do with motivation in the workplace". That's the argument put forward by best-selling
author Daniel Pink in his new book, Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us. "Pay for
performance is supposed to be a folk tale," he says.
     Daniel argues that, if employees receive a basic level of payment, three other factors matter more than
money: a sense of independence, of mastery over one's labor, and of serving a purpose larger than oneself.
For example, in 2008 at the offices of Best Buy's Richfield, salaried workers there were allowed to organize
their own work day, putting in only as many hours as they felt necessary to get their jobs done. Productivity
increased by 35% according to The Harvard Business Review.
     But the managers at Goldman Sachs aren't exactly making some efforts to adjust. Like others on Wall
Street, the banking giant argues that fat bonuses (extra rewards) are essential to make its numbers. "That's
exactly the attitude that leads to the recent financial crisis in the United States," responds Daniel, "as managers
always focus on short-term rewards that encourage cheating, shortcuts, and dishonest behavior."
     Moreover, the 45-year-old author and former Al Gore speechwriter refers to social-science experiments
and experiences at such workplaces as Google and 3M. In one 2005 experiment he describes, economists
working for the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston tested the power of incentives (激勵(lì)) by offering cash
rewards to those who did wellin games that included reciting a series of numbers and throwing tennis balls
at a target. The researchers' finding: Over and over, higher incentives led to worse performance-and those
given the highest incentives did the poorest job.
     From this and other cases, Daniel draws a conclusion that monetary incentives remove the element of
play and creativity, transforming "an interesting task into a dull one." It's even possible, he adds, for oversized
rewards to have dangerous side effects, like those of a drug dependency in which an addicted requires ever
larger amounts. He refers to scientific testing that shows the promise of cash rewards increase a chemical in
the brain similar to that brought on by cocaine or nicotine.
     Daniel, however, is also aware that his company examples-no GE, no IBM, no Microsoft-hardly represent
the commanding heights of the economy. But he thinks his approach will catch on, even in the biggest
companies. "Managers tend to be realistic, and in time they will respond," he says.
1. In his book, Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us, Daniel Pink is promoting the idea that
[     ]
A. it is a money-driven society
B. all workers are not driven by money
C. money plays a key role in management
D. pay has nothing to do with workplaces
2. In Daniel's point of view, many Wall Street managers are _____.
[     ]
A. dishonest
B. considerate
C. short-sighted
D. ridiculous
3. In paragraph 5, the example of drug-taking is given to show _____.
[     ]
A. money is as addictive as cocaine or nicotine
B. big rewards bring about dangerous side effect
C. nicotine and money bring the same chemical
D workers do not need the incentives of money at all
4. We can learn from the last paragraph that _____.
[     ]
A. Daniel's approach will be popular in a wider field
B. realistic managers will first consider Daniel's approach
C. Daniel's approach meets the demand of economic crisis
D. GE, IBM and Microsoft will join in Daniel's approach next

閱讀理解。
    Recently a Beijing father sent in a question at an Internet forum asking what "PK" meant.
    "My family has been watching the 'Super Girl' singing competition TV program. My little daughter asked
me what 'PK' means, but I had no idea," explained the puzzled father.
    To a lot of Chinese young people who have been playing games online, it is impossible not to know that
item. 
    In such Internet games, "PK" is short for "Player Kill", in which two players fight until one ends the life
of the other. 
    In the case of the "Super Girl" singing competition, "PK" was used to refer to the stage where two singers
have to compete with each other for only one chance to go up in competition ranking.
    Like this puzzled father, Chinese teachers at high schools have also been finding their students' composition
using Internet jargon (行話) difficult to understand.
    A high school teacher from Tianjin asked her students to write up compositions with colloquial (口語(yǔ)的)
language, but they came up with a lot of Internet jargon that she didn't understand.
    " My 'GG' came back this summer from college. He told me I've grown up to be a 'PLMM': I love to 'FB'
with him together; he always took me to the 'KPM', went one composition."
    "GG" means Ge Ge (Chinese pinyin for brother ). "PLMM" refers to Piao Liang Mei Mei (beautiful sister ).
"FB" means "to corrupt". "KPM" is short for KFC, Pizza Hut and McDonalds.
    While some specialists welcome Internet jargon as a new development in language, teachers are worried
that too much use of such language might lead students away from the "right" usages. Parents especially
worry that their children might not do well in language tests because of the use of Internet language. 
    Such as those mixed feelings are, the conciseness and liveliness of Internet language continues to attract
Internet users for making convenient communications.
    If you do not even know what a Kong Long (dinosaur, referring to ugly-looking female) or a Qing Wa (frog,
referring to ugly-looking male)is, then you will possibly be regarded as a Cai Niao!
1. By writing the article, the writer tries to ______.
[     ]
A. explain some Internet jargon
B. suggest normalizing Internet language
C. draw our attention to Internet language use
D. support teachers and parents.
2. What does the writer think about the term "PK"?
[     ]
A. Fathers can't possibly know it.
B. The daughter should understand it.
C. Online game players must know it.
D. "Super Girl" shouldn't have used it.
3. According to the composition, the underlined word "corrupt" probably means "______".
[     ]
A. change the traditional form of something
B. often have good food or do something expensive
C. encourage someone to behave in a dishonest way
D. often have some sports to become strong
4. The example of the Beijing father and the Tianjin teacher are used to show that Internet jargon ______.
[     ]
A. is used not only online
B. contains many interesting expressions
C. is hard to understand by the elders
D. causes trouble to our mother tongue
