3. The following appeared in a newspaper article about law firms in the city of Megalopolis.
"In Megalopolis, the number of law school graduates who went to work for large, corporate firms declined by 15 percent over the last three years, whereas an increasing number of graduates took jobs at small, general practice firms. Even though large firms usually offer much higher salaries, law school graduates are choosing to work for the smaller firms most likely because they experience greater job satisfaction at smaller firms. In a survey of first-year students at a leading law school, most agreed with the statement that earning a high salary was less important to them than job satisfaction. This finding suggests that the large, corporate firms of Megalopolis will need to offer graduates more benefits and incentives and reduce the number of hours they must work."
1.进入大的事务所也可以带给毕业生工作满足感。因为他们在大的事务所会得到更大的发展空间和面对更多的挑战，这些都可能让他们更快获得成功。
2.错误的样本:大一的学生无法代替应届毕业生。大一学生没有就业压力，思考问题不成熟专业知识少，对社会的了解过少等。
3.没有证据显示在大公司工作缺少成就感是因为工作时长过长造成的，提议未必起效
4.论断没有详细列出学生所谓的工作成就感具体包括哪些方面，比如工资高，发展机会多，工作环境等。

127. The vice president for human resources at Climpson Industries sent the following recommendation to the company's president.
"In an effort to improve our employees' productivity, we should implement electronic monitoring of employees' Internet use from their workstations. Employees who use the Internet from their workstations need to be identified and punished if we are to reduce the number of work hours spent on personal or recreational activities, such as shopping or playing games. By installing software to detect employees' Internet use on company computers, we can prevent employees from wasting time, foster a better work ethic at Climpson, and improve our overall profits."
1.论断没有说明员工现在的工作状态如何，私事和娱乐是否已经影响到他们的工作的效果。如果没有，这种提议就没有必要。
2.公司通过电子监视仪监视员工的工作的行为，可能引起员工的不满，反而会导致他们消极怠工。
3.装电子监控仪涉及成本问题，比较装软件的支出成本和装了软件后对公司利润的贡献，可能会发现这一提议反而会使公司损失。

121. 121The following is a memo from the president of Cyberell Computer Company.
"All of our customer-service employees recently attended a two-day retreat during which they received retraining in effective customer service. Subsequently, Cyberell's employee-performance study showed that the retreat benefited new employees—those who have worked with Cyberell for less than two years—far more than it did experienced employees. According to the study, after the retreat new employees were able to handle an average of ten percent more calls per hour, and the total number of customer complaints about new employees decreased, but experienced employees showed little improvement in these areas. Therefore, Cyberell should send only new employees to future retreats and should use the resulting savings to double the length of the retreats so that the retreats will be more likely to yield optimum employee performance."
1.对老员工无效，可能是这次的培训内容不适合老员工，此次培训本身就是针对那些新员工的。
2.判别员工进步的标准不合适。员工是否进步表现在很多方面而不仅仅是电话接听和投诉。
3.新员工接听电话变多，收到的投诉变少并不能表示新员工的能力加强了。可能这段时间客户在电话中的问题易于处理，或是新员工在电话中敷衍客户。投诉变少可能是业务总量下降，或者这段时间的客户刚好都不太爱抱怨。
4.结论过于武断。没有证据显示培训时长和培训效果成正相关，加长培训时间并不一定会提高培训效果。
