Lesson 6

2. But neither the late 1990s boom nor the subsequent bust had much impact in either direction, indicating that the state of worker happiness goes much deeper than the swings of the economy.

4. In fact, engagement at work is less a function of your personality than is happiness in general.

事实上,对工作的投入程度与其说是个性使然,不如说是源于人们在工作中总体上获得的幸福感。哈特认为,对工作高度投入与工作不投入的员工之间之所以存在如此差异的原因,员工的个性因素只占30%,剩余的大部分原因取决于员工每天与同事、主管以及客户的频繁交往。

但通过关心员工的需求,企业至少可以发展得更好。那样,我们更多的人就会在工作中找到一定程度的满足感。而且有时我们甚至还会希望去进一步超越这一程度的满足感。这种情况可能发生在场边站着热情欢呼人群的篮球场上,也可能发生在哪怕只有一个怀着感激之情的学生的教室里。

Or does it mean the station should recognize that different forms of communication or entertainment, or programs designed for different kinds of audiences, should have different standards concerning language and ideas?

这是否意味着在广播电台或电视台播放的歌曲中不允许出现那些在新闻或体育节目中禁止出现的语言和观念？或者这是否意味着电台或电视台应该认识到不同的交流或娱乐形式，或是为不同观众准备的节目，在语言和观念上应该具有不同的标准？

5. One author has suggested that popular music also serves a "rite of passage" function for young girls. The teenage singing idols may serve as non-threatening substitutes for actual boys until boys' maturation catches up with that of girls and some semblance of easy boy-girl relationships can be established.

一位作者指出流行音乐也扮演了女孩子“成长仪式”中的重要角色。在同龄男孩子成长到像女孩子那样成熟并能较容易地与女孩子建立朋友关系之前，少年歌星可能会成为不会对女孩子形成威胁的男友的替身。
