GWD5-9 找不到讨论过的,讨论一下

Behavior science courses should



       be gaining prominence in business


       school curricula.  Recent theoretical


Line       work convincingly shows why behav-


  (5)      ioral factors such as organizational


culture and employee relations are


among the few remaining sources of


sustainable competitive advantage in


modern organizations.  Furthermore,


(10)      empirical evidence demonstrates


clear linkages between human


resource (HR) practices based in


the behavioral sciences and various


aspects of a firm’s financial success.


(15)      Additionally, some of the world’s most


successful organizations have made


unique HR practices a core element


of their overall business strategies.


      Yet the behavior sciences


(20)      are struggling for credibility in many


business schools.  Surveys show


that business students often regard


behavioral studies as peripheral to


       the mainstream business curriculum.


(25)      This perception can be explained by


the fact that business students, hoping


to increase their attractiveness to


prospective employers, are highly


sensitive to business norms and


(30)      practices, and current business


practices have generally been


moving away from an emphasis on


       understanding human behavior and


toward more mechanistic organiza-


(35)      tional models.  Furthermore, the


       status of HR professionals within


organizations tends to be lower


than that of other executives.


      Students’ perceptions would


(40)      matter less if business schools


were not increasingly dependent on


external funding—form legislatures,


businesses, and private foundations—


for survival.  Concerned with their


(45)      institutions’ ability to attract funding,


administrators are increasingly tar-


geting low-enrollment courses and


degree programs for elimination.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Q9:


The primary purpose of the passage is to


              



  1. propose a particular change to business school curricula


  2. characterize students’ perceptions of business school curricula
  3. predict the consequences of a particular change in business school curricula
  4. challenge one explanation for the failure to adopt a particular change in business school curricula
  5. identify factors that have affected the prestige of a particular field in business school curricula

答案是E.个人认为全篇都是在讲HR如何如何好,开头和末尾都强调了因为它好所以要进入学校课程...为什么不选A呢,答案E我看不太懂,呵呵


刚才仔细把文章看了一扁


答案E强调factors和prestige.我觉得都有问题,文章结构是:第一段,HR多么好多么好;第二段,HR不被学校学生重视,及其原因;第三段针对第二段提出解决问题的一些看法


我觉得谈不上factors,也不是identify  factors,更加和学校的prestige无关(而是学好HR对经济是很重要的)。


整个文章就是强调那么多HR的好处就是为了propose一个change,让学校由不重视到重视,所以我还是觉得A好。虽然也许E比较像ets的正确答案。欢迎大家指正!

选A。A就是中心句呀。

A像ets的答案。主旨题的正确答案都是领会精神式的,很费劲的把具体内容讲出来的选项一定错。(说得绝对了,基本上都错,都会有点陷阱在里面。比如这个E:就光说影响hr地位的因素。文章不光讲了影响hr地位的因素,还讲了hr为什么应该受重视。E是典型以偏概全。)我记得前两天还看见这题。

alan:gwd已经讨论了很久了,一般有问题的都被讨论过了,找不到可能是重复的题号的问题。

谢谢 mm的解释,更坚定了我选A的决心。

不过还是有待NN们来指正丫。呵呵。最近就要考了,唉,我的阅读还是很起伏,感觉GWD的选项比OG的有迷惑多了!OG选个基本相关的就对勒,GWD。。。做得很是郁闷,敢问机考的时候到底题目很哪个比较像!

我喜欢文章看不懂,题很简单选项很容易排除的的,吼吼~~谢谢指正

我主张选E。我觉得这里的问题是关键词 'propose the change' or 'identify the factors'.如果是'propose the change', the author should list all the benefits of thechange, instead, the author describes all factors(again factors) that'spreventing the success of the course. The 'prestige' means the'prestige of the field' in other words, 'the success of the courses',rather than 'the prestige the school'. 个人意见,经供参考。

谢谢楼上的,我正是觉得文章通篇都是再讲hr的好处,而这一目的就是为了propose a change, 你那样解释factors, indentify factors, prestige太过牵强了,至少容易产生歧义,试问ETS关于主旨的题会这样含糊么?这点我是很赞同楼上mm的意见的。再者,文章前看“Behavior science courses should be gaining prominence in business school curricula”后看“解释如何change”,都很明显的告诉了我们文章的主题。

欢迎大家指正

to be continued

我觉得这里的问题是关键词 'propose the change' or 'identify the factors'. (right!)
如果是'propose the change', the author should list all the benefits of thechange,(I think he indeed does so.Line 3-18 )
instead, the author describes all factors(again factors) that'spreventing the success of the course. ( He describes these factors. But that is only a part of the article.)
The 'prestige' means the'prestige of the field' in other words, 'the success of the courses',rather than 'the prestige the school'. (the prestige of a particular field =the high standing or importance of a particular field. I think the use of prestige is ok. But E is not the main idea.)

我个人支持A。


文章首句是判断句,但二段首句出现强转折。根据新东方的阅读法则:“文章首句是判断句,只有在二句或二段首句无转折的情况下,首句才能成为全文主题”。因此仅仅通过首句还不能断定是A。反之,如果二句或二段首句转折成立,那么后者就会成为TS。而本文二段恰恰用了一个Yet来强转折。


那么二段首句到底是不是本文的TS呢?仔细阅读二段的转折,发现这并不是对首段的否定,而是进一步描述当前的现象。虽然形式上是否定,但逻辑上并没有否定。因此二段首句也不应该直接成为全文主题。


那么主题到底如何判断呢?用反证法。从全文结构上来看,首段全部是讲behavior science的好处。如果E成为正确答案,那么文章首段显然是和主题没有任何联系。这在ETS的阅读中是不可思议的。


反之,如果A正确,那么二段、三段中论述behavior science被忽略的原因,可看作是对proposal的一个补充;因为作者对这些原因是持负态度的。反观E中的identify the factors并没有态度的体现。因此二段三段更应视作对一段的论证补充,而非单纯地identify。


综上所述,个人以为A更像正确答案。欢迎批评指正。


(另,我觉得这题ETS是不是出的不太好?)

第十题说明了第九题的答案是a,如果是e的话,就发生意群核心冲突了。
