章节摘录

　　Task 2　 Read the passages and choose the best answer for each question.　　Passage 1　　A major study， conducted by the Social Issues Research Centre （SIRC）， was recently published. It assesses the impact of sporting success and failure on the UK workplace.　　The results reveal that sport - and conversations between staff and customers， managers and staff， men and women - can have a positive impact on boosting morale and improving mood， motivation and productivity in the working environment.　　63% of men and 52% of women said that sporting success （i.e. their team winning） has an impact on their approach to work. 47% women and 40% of men said that sporting success lifts their mood and makes them more productive in their jobs. A fifth of men said sport increases their motivation at work compared to 12% of women. Only 3% said that sporting success is distracting and makes them less productive.　　The forthcorrung football World Cup is an example of one such sporting event which is expected to have a major impact on the working world. 70% of men and 62% of women residents in England said that it will have an impact on their working lives - by boosting morale if the team does well， creating a team spirit and providing an environment for social inclusion. Other major events， such as Wimbledon， the Ashes， and the Rugby World Cup， have and will continue to act as catalysts for communication and bonding.　　Moreover， it is not just set-piece sporting events that trigger such positive responses amongst employees and their customers; day in， day out， "talking sport" is a way of breaking down barriers.It can make or break a sale or the relationship between a manager and his/her team. In fact， sport enhances creativity and pfomotes sharing of ideas.　　So what can businesses do to harness the positive effects produced by sport in the workplace on a daily basis in order to reap the substantial benefits of higher morale and team spirit evoked by such tournaments?　　Almost three-quarters of men （71%） and 68% of women said that employers and employees can learn valuable lessons from sport: The value of working as a team; identifying and influencing what makes a good team player; the importance of commitment and dedication; the importance of collective responsibility; how talents can be developed and performance maximised; and the value of individual flair and creatvity. Sport can teach managers about the importance of thinking creatively and reflect the skills that make a good manager.　　……
