临床执业医师资格考试题-英语(四)
Questions 61 - 65 are based on the following passage:"It’s not what you know but who you know that counts." People who get on in
life may be successful not because they deserve it, but because of influential
friends or the right background. This is the widespread belief it is a
comforting belief too. If your boss strikes you as incompetent, it is tempting
to believe that he only got the job because his father pulled some strings And
yet, if we can get what we want by ’having a word’ with so-and-so, or by
getting so-and-so to put in a good word for us, which of us would not take
advantage of the opportunity? Often it is quite harmless. For instance, when
Miguel went with Julia to visit Michelle in hospital, he bumped into someone
he knew, a doctor who had been at medical school with his father. As a result
of this chance, Miguel was able to find out a great deal about Michelle’s
condition. At the other extreme it can be very destructive. I once met a
brilliant young engineer who worked in a chemical plant. Because of her
knowledge and experience, she should have been promoted to Production Manager.
Instead, the job went to a man who was totally unsuited for the post. Every
one knew that he only got it because he was politically acceptable to his
superiors. This injustice demoralized the young engineer and many of her
colleagues. It also meant that the factory was much less efficient than it
could have been.
All the same, we should not be pessimistic. More and more, the modern world
depends on having people who are in the job because they are good enough, not
just because their face fits. There is a story of a faciory owner who sent for
an engineer to see to a machine which would not work. He examined it, then
took out a hammer and tapped it, once. The machine started up immediately.
When he presented his bill, the owner protested, "This can`t be right! $100
just for tapping a machine withhttp://www.unjs.com/
