Although management principles have been implemented since ancient times, most management scholars trace the beginning of modern management thought back to the early 19005, beginning with the
Trang 4pioneering work of Frederick Taylor (1856-1915) Taylor was the first person to study work scientifically
He is most famous for introducing techniques of time and motion study, differential piece rate systems, and for systemtically specializing the work of operating employees and managers Along with other pioneers such as Frank and Lillian Gilbreth, Taylor set the stage, labeling his philosophy and methods
“scientific management’ At that time, his philosophy, which was concerned with productivity, but which was often misinterpreted as promoting worker interests at the expense of management, was in marked
contrast to the prevailing industrial norms of worker exploitation.
The time and motion study concepts were popularized by Frank and Lillian Gilbreth The
Gilbreths had 12 children By analyzing his children’s dishwashing and bed making chores, this pioneer efficiency expert, Frank Gilbreth, hit on principles whereby workers could eliminate waste motion He was memorialized by two of his children in their 1949 book called “Cheaper by the Dozen”
The Gilbreth methods included using stop watches to time worker movements and special
tools (cameras and special clocks) to monitor and study worker performance, and also involved
identification of “therbligs” (Gilbreth spelled backwards) - basic motions used in production jobs Many
of these motions and accompanying times have been used to determine how long it should take a skilled worker to perform a given job In this way an industrial engineer can get a handle on the approximate time it should take to produce a product or provide a service However, use of work analysis in this way is unlikely to lead to useful results unless all five work dimensions are considered physical, psychological, social, cultural, and power
Question 36: What is the passage primarily about?
A The limitations of pioneering studies in understanding human behavior.
B How time and motion studies were first developed.
C The first applications of a scientific approach to understanding human behavior.
D The beginnings of modern management theory.
Question 37: It can be inferred from the first paragraph that .
A workers welcomed the application of scientific management
B Taylor’s philosophy is different from the industrial norms
C by the early 1900s science had reached a stage where it could be applied to the workplace
D workers were no longer exploited after the introduction of scientific management.
Question 38: The word “prevailing” is closest in meaning to .
A predominant B broadly accepted C prevalent D common
Question 39: According to the passage, Frank Gilbreth discovered how workers could eliminate
waste motion by
A using special tools such as cameras and clocks
B using stop watches
C applying scientific management principles
D watching his children do their chores
Question 40: According to the passage, the time it takes a skilled worker to perform the motion of a
given job can be measured by using
A stop watches B all five work dimensions
C special tools D therbligs
Question 41: Where in the passage does the author comment that the principles of scientific
management were often misunderstood?
A Lines l-5 B Lines 7-9 C Lines 12-15 D Lines 16-20
Trang 5Question 42: All of the following are true except .
A Scientific management was concerned with productivity.
B the beginnings of modern management thought commenced in the 19th century.
C Frank Gilbreth’s fame was enhanced by two of his children writing a book.
D Analyzing work to increase productivity is not likely to be useful unless all of the dimensions
are considered
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 50.
A survey is a study, generally in the form of an interview or a questionnaire, which provides
information concerning how people think and act In the United States, the best-known surveys are the Gallup poll and the Harris poll As anyone who watches the news during presidential campaigns knows, these polls have become an important part of political life in the United States
North Americans are familiar with the many “person on the street” interviews on local television news shows While such interviews can be highly entertaining, they are not necessarily an accurate
indication of public opinion First, they reflect the opinions of only those people who appear at a certain location Thus, such samples can be biased in favor of commuters, middle-class shoppers, or factory workers, depending on which area the new people select Second, television interviews tend to attract outgoing people who are willing to appear on the air, while they frighten away others who may feel
intimidated by a camera A survey must be based on a precise, representative sampling if it is to
genuinely reflect a broad range of the population
In preparing to conduct a survey, sociologists must exercise great care in the wording of questions
An effective survey question must be simple and clear enough for people to understand it It must also be specific enough so that there are no problems in interpreting the results Even questions that are less structured must be carefully phrased in order to elicit the type of information desired Surveys can be
indispensable sources of information, but only if the sampling is done properly and the questions are
worded accurately
There are two main forms of surveys: the interview and the questionnaire Each of these forms of survey research has its advantages An interviewer can obtain a high response rate because people find it more difficult to turn down a personal request for an interview than to throw away a written
questionnaire In addition, an interviewer can go beyond written questions and probe for a subject’s underlying feelings and reasons However, questionnaires have the advantage of being cheaper and more consistent
Question 43: According to the passage, the main disadvantage of person-on-the-street interviews is that
they
A are not based on a representative sampling
B reflect political opinions
C are not carefully worded
D are used only on television
Question 44: According to the passage, one advantage of live interviews over questionnaires is that live
interviews
A minimize the influence of the researcher
B are easier to interpret
C costless
D can produce more information
Trang 6Question 45: The word “precise” is closest in meaning to _.
A accurate B rational C required D planned
Question 46: Which word is given definition in the text?
A sampling ` B poll C survey D interview
Question 47: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A The principles of conducting surveys.
B The importance of polls in American political life.
C Problems associated with interpreting surveys.
D The history of surveys in North America.
Question 48: According to paragraph 3, which of the following is most important for an effective
survey?
A A sociologist who is able to interpret the results
B Carefully worded questions
C An interviewer’s ability to measure respondents’feelings
D A high number of respondents
Question 49: The word “indispensable” is closest in meaning to .
A necessary B complicated C expensive D simple
Question 50: It can be inferred from the passage that one reason that sociologists may become frustrated
with questionnaires is that
A respondents often do not complete and return questionnaires
B questionnaires are expensive and difficult to distribute
C respondents are too eager to supplement questions with their own opinions
D questionnaires are often difficult to read
