15.Handwritten thank-you letters are such a simple way of making other people feel good,it is strange that so few people write them any more.At work,a thank-you letter to employees is unbelievably effective.It costs little and has no side effects.The effort involved in writing letters very low.The pleasure on receiving them is very high.(36)CDoug Conant,manager of Campbell's Soup Company since 2001,knows the power of thank you letters.He said that every day he works with an assistant,combing the company for people deserving thanks.(37)B Over the past 10years he has sent 30,000thank-you letters to his employees-more than 10each day.The reward is huge:his company has remained one of the most successful in its field for years.
(38)F There seem to be three reasons.Firstly,chief executives(主管)running companies think their own work is more valuable than that of others.(39)G Secondly,they area't close enough to the business to know who deserves thanks.Thirdly,they have forgotten the strange human truth that almost everyone would do almost anything in return for a few words of appreciation.
In these days of such busy schedules and people running all over the place and trying to get ahead,sometimes we forget the simplest things in life are the most powerful and rewarding.You need to think to yourself about a time someone sent you a thank-you and how much it meant to you.(40)E

分析 本文主要讲述手写的感谢信是奖励和鼓励人们工作的最好的方式.
解答 CBFGE
36 C This makes them an excellent way to reward and motivate staff.根据前文The pleasure on receiving them is very high可知员工收到感谢信非常高兴,积极性更高,因此这是奖励和带动员工积极性的最好的方式.
37 B He then writes them a thank-you letter.根据后文Over the past 10years he has sent 30,000thank-you letters to his employees-more than 10each day.在过去十年他给员工写了30000封感谢信,每天平均十封信,可知他在知道感谢信的重要性后就开始写信了.
38 F But if these letters ale so uplifting,why don't more managers write them?根据后文There seem to be three reasons.可知更多经理不写感谢信的原因有三个,因此既然感谢信有这么巨大的作用,经理们为什么不再多写感谢信呢?
39 G Since no one ever writes them thank-you letters they don't write any themselves.根据前文Firstly,chief executives(主管)running companies think their own work is more valuable than that of others可知经营公司的主管认为他们自己的工作比其他人的更有价值,既然没有人给他们写感谢信,那么他们自己也不写,这也是他们不写感谢信的原因.
40 E Always remember to"Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you!"根据前文You need to think to yourself about a time someone sent you a thank-you and how much it meant to you可知你需要考虑一下某个人给你寄感谢信的时候,你会感觉多么重要,因此无论别人喜不喜欢,你一定要先给他们写感谢信.
