　　Dealing with conflict in the workplace is rarely easy.Hurt feelings and anger can lead to lower employee morale as well as a loss of productivity and a poor work environment.As a manager,you should find some ways yourself to solve the conflict.The goal is to build a team-centered workforce.

　　You can use role-reversal (角色轉(zhuǎn)換) methods to help each employee understand how the other feels.This model works best when there are only two parties involved.You can hold a meeting with annoyed workers in your office.You might say,“Jane,explain to me how you would feel if Nancy went to lunch with your clients without telling you?” Or,“Nancy,how would you respond if Jane came to me with complaints about you,but hadn’t tried to talk to you about them first?”

　　Workers often respond better to praise than criticism.By publicly drawing attention to employees who have healthy work relationships,you can increase the awareness for those who encourage any conflict.Avoid mentioning teams or departments that are being troubled by conflict.Instead,focus on the teams that work well together.You might say,“I want to express thanks to the design team for working together to meet the deadline this week,” or “Special thanks to the finance department for their teamwork in making sure that the quarterly reports were accurate.”?

　　And help your employees see that differences can be good and don’t necessarily lead to anger or disagreement.This is one of the best ways to settle workplace conflicts.You can meet with employees and try to stress the value of different techniques.This lets all parties know that their own styles can be effective.You might say,“I know you disagree on how to market our services,but when you combine Jim’s email marketing with Joe’s personal one-on-one phone calls,you can increase sales.The two of you go well together,” Or “I know you have different styles for interacting with clients,but Sally’s take-them-out-for-coffee approach works well together with Ann’s formal business meeting style.Both are necessary for building relationships and getting work done.”

　　1.To build a team-centered workforce,employees 　.?

　　19.C　此處指可以問(wèn)問(wèn)他們是不是雇用青少年(teenagers)。此處與下文“your kid”相照應(yīng)。故C項(xiàng)正確。

　　20.B　此處指留意時(shí)間表確保他不遲到。habit “習(xí)慣”;schedule“時(shí)間表”;tradition“傳統(tǒng)”;determination“決心”。根據(jù)“to make sure he is never late”可知,B項(xiàng)正確。

　　.1.has happened　一種報(bào)道是描述已經(jīng)發(fā)生的事件,故用現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)態(tài)。

　　2.are　該句主語(yǔ)為news reports,故用復(fù)數(shù)形式。

　　3.If　這是一個(gè)條件狀語(yǔ)從句,用if引導(dǎo)。

　　4.that　此處用that引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句,因先行詞是everything,故不可用which。

　　5.amusing　表示事物性質(zhì)特點(diǎn),用-ing形式的形容詞做表語(yǔ)。

　　6.except　后面說(shuō)明例外的情況,因后面跟從句,故填except。

　　7.other　前面說(shuō)明第一段情況,此處填other表示其他段落的情況。

　　8.with　此處interviews with表示“對(duì)……的采訪”。

　　9.spoken　此處用過(guò)去分詞做定語(yǔ),修飾the words,它們之間為被動(dòng)關(guān)系。

　　10.to make　用動(dòng)詞不定式表示目的。
