完形填空 說明文 【2016上海高考真題】 In the 1960s, Douglas McGregor, one of the key thinkers in the art of management, developed the mow famous Theory X and Theory Y. Theory X is the idea that people instinctively 1 work and will do anything to avoid it. Theory Y is the view that everyone has the potential to find satisfaction in work. In any case, despite so much evidence to the 2 , many managers still agree to Theory X. They believe, 3 , that their employees need constant supervision if they are to work effectively, or that decisions must be imposed from 4 without consultation. This, of course, makes for authoritarian (專制的) managers. Different cultures have different ways of 5 people. Unlike authoritarian management, some cultures, particularly in Asia, are well known for the consultative nature of decision-making—all members of the department or work group are asked to 6 to this process. This is management by the collective opinion. Many western companies have tried to imitate such Asian ways of doing things, which are based on general 7 . Some experts say that women will become more effective managers than men because they have the power to reach common goals in a way that traditional 8 managers cannot. A recent trend has been to encourage employees to use their own initiative, to make decisions on their own without 9 managers first. This empowerment (授權(quán)) has been part of the trend towards downsizing: 10 the number of management layers in companies. After de-layering in this way, a company may be 11 with just a top level of senior managers, front-line managers and employees with direct contact with the public. Empowerment takes the idea of delegation (委托) much further than has 12 been the case. Empowerment and delegation mean new forms of management control to 13 that the overall business plan is being followed, and that operations become more profitable under the new organization, rather than less. Another trend is off-site or 14 management, where teams of people linked by e-mail and the Internet work on projects from their own houses. Project managers evaluate the 15 of the team members in terms of what they produce for projects, rather than the amount of time they spend on them. 1. A. desire B. seek C. lose D. dislike 2.

But the 　21　 thing is that the French,who consume rich food, 　22__　 to stay thin.Now a 　23　 by Cornell University suggests 　24　 life style and decisions about 　25　 may affect weight. Researchers concluded that the French tend to stop eating when they feel 　26　. However,Americans tend to stop when their 　27　 are empty or their favorite TV show is over. According to Dr.Joseph Mercola, a　28　expert, the French see eating 　29　an important part of their life style.They enjoy food and therefore spend a 　30　 time at the table, while Americans see eating as 　31　 to be squeezed between the other daily activities. Mercola believes Americans 　32　 the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating long after the French would have 　33　. In addition,he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and 　34　 foods for the week. The French,　35　 tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers’ markets where they have a 　36　 of fresh fruits,vegetables, and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal. After a visit to the United States, MireilleGuiliano, author of FrenchWomenDon’tGetFat, decided to 　37__　 about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid 　38　. Today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym. In spite of all these differences, evidence shows that recent life style 　39　 may be affecting French eating habits. Today the rate of obesity (肥胖) — or extreme overweight — among adults is only 6%. However, as American fast food gains 　40　 and the young reject older traditions, the obesity rate among French children has reached 17% — and is growing. 21.

He first used it in a short story in 1982, and expanded on it a couple of years later in a novel Neuromancer. His 41 creation turned out to be remarkably prescient (有先見之明). Cyberspace has become shorthand for the computing devices, networks, fiber-optic cables, and wireless links that bring the internet to billions of people around the world. The 42 made by these technologies have brought tremendous benefits to everyone who uses the web to 43 humanity’s collective store of knowledge every day. But there is a darker side to this extraordinary invention. Data 44 are becoming ever bigger and more common. Last year over 800m records were lost, mainly through attacks. Among the most prominent recent 45__ has been Target, whose chief executive stood down from his job in May, a few months after the giant retailer 46__ that online intruders had stolen millions of digital records about its customers, including credit-card and debit-card details. The potential damage, though, extends well beyond such 47 intrusion. Wider 48 have been raised by the realization of a growing numbers of cyber-warriors being recruited by countries that see cyberspace as a new territory of warfare. America’s president, Barack Obama, said in a White House press release that cyber-threats “ 49 one of the gravest national-security dangers” the country is facing. Securing cyberspace is hard because the architecture of the internet was designed to promote connectivity, not ___50 . Its founders focused on getting it to work and did not 51 threats because the network was attached to America’s military. As hackers 52 , layers of security, from antivirus programs to firewalls, were added to try to keep them at bay. Gartner, a research firm, admits that last year organizations around the globe spent $67 billion on information security. 53 , these defenses have worked reasonably well. Despite the talk about the risk of a “cyber 9/11”, the internet has proved remarkably 54 .
