　　參考答案及解析

　　《Human Resource Policy》，人力資源政策。主要是講的CBA銀行的人力資源政策，。先簡單介紹了這個(gè)銀行的管理結(jié)構(gòu)，是扁平化的組織結(jié)構(gòu)(flatter organizational structure)，而不是等級制公司(hierarchy)�？傮w原則是不招應(yīng)屆的剛出校門的畢業(yè)生，而要有一定的生活經(jīng)驗(yàn)或者是工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)。

　　第19、20、21題，這幾空都是舉例說明前面提到的human resources practices。19空是說的將公司的發(fā)展目標(biāo)傳達(dá)給員工。公司目標(biāo)，用objective。purpose是指具體做某件事情的意圖。這里有必要區(qū)分一下objective和purpose，看英文解釋。

　　purpose: the reason you do something, and the thing you want to achieve when you do it

　　objective: something that you are working hard to achieve, especially in business or politics

　　第20題，個(gè)人培訓(xùn)和發(fā)展計(jì)劃的制定。個(gè)人發(fā)展計(jì)劃，personal development plans，選C。

　　第21題，定期的表現(xiàn)回顧。用review。hold在這個(gè)句子里是舉行的意思。the holding of regular performance review，定期舉行員工的表現(xiàn)回顧。

　　第22題，說扁平化的組織結(jié)構(gòu)可以給員工更加定義廣泛的角色。broadly defined roles,選C。

　　第23題，人際交往技巧是很重要的。interpersonal skills,是地道的說法。參見一個(gè)例句：you will need good interpersonal skills.

　　第24題，這一句的意思很好理解，是說員工們越來越看重或者說是承認(rèn)一個(gè)事實(shí)：顧客的滿意是組織的主要目標(biāo)。recommend是推薦、建議，后面不接 the fact(事實(shí))，honour是敬重，obey是遵守，這里應(yīng)該選擇respect。respect這里是重視或者接受的意思，看英英詞典上的解釋：to accept that something which is established or formally agreed is right or important and not to attempt to change it or harm it。所以這一空應(yīng)該選擇respect the fact，表示接受這個(gè)事實(shí)。

　　第25題，CBA銀行追求這個(gè)目的是為著自己的利益，而不是為股東掙利潤的工具。for the sake of something 或 for something's sake：for the purpose of; in the interest of; in order to achieve or preserve 為了…目的;為了…的利益;為了。。。固定用法，選A。

　　第26題，尋找潛在的新成員。地道的詞是potential，比如potential recruits, potential staff, potential candidates.

　　第27題，考察的是短語take on的一個(gè)用法，雇傭：If you take someone on, you employ them to do a job.;write in：to write a letter to a newspaper, television company or other organization, to state an opinion or ask something以群眾來信的形式表達(dá)的意見。

　　第28題，把畢業(yè)生分配在各個(gè)連鎖金融服務(wù)領(lǐng)域。用area。field做領(lǐng)域、范圍講的時(shí)候是指的研究、活動，region是指的具體的地區(qū)，parts是部分，應(yīng)該用area。

　　第29題，完成目標(biāo)，met the targets。

　　第30題，完成了目標(biāo)就可以得到工作。secure：to get possession of; acquire:

　　第31題，招的人已經(jīng)具有了一定的生活經(jīng)驗(yàn)。gain：to obtain something that is useful, that gives you an advantage, or that is in some way positive, especially over a period of time

　　eg: After you've gained some experience teaching abroad you can come home and get a job.

　　第32題，薪酬現(xiàn)在和業(yè)績掛鉤。link to，聯(lián)系。

　　第33題，reward sb.獎勵某人。reward employees for their achievements and effort，因?yàn)楣�勞而獎勵員工。
