1、Section Lesson 4原文呈现Survival of the Fittest“Between now and the 21st century,citizens of the worlds richest and most advanced nations will find it more and more difficult to keep up with the demand for change.For them,the future will arrive too soon.”So begins Alvin Tofflers book Future Shock,writte

5、难 搞 清 变 化 的 规 律，你 该 如 何 应 对 呢？(1)_。深吸一口气，努力设想一下未来会发生的好事情。即使你不是爱因斯坦，也能推测出哪些工作领域受这些变化的影响最大。农业、煤矿业和重工业的工作职位会迅速减少。(2)_。Without doubt，the number of jobs in information technology will multiply10.There are currently over 100,000,000 computers in the world and by 2020 there will be 10 times more.(3)_There
6、are also many other important changes taking place.First,fewer and fewer people will have a“job for life”.(4)_.According to Mark Hastings of the Institute of Management,in the future,people will organise their working life around a variety of jobs,instead of working just for one division or branch o

8、 年，这个数字将增加十倍。3 。还有很多其他重要的变化发生。首先，那种有“终身职业”想法的人将越来越少。4 。管理学院的马克黑斯廷斯指出，未来人们将围绕各种工作组织自己的职业生涯，而不会只服务于一家公司的一个部门或分支机构。Similarly，companies will operate in different ways.People will move around to do different jobs,rather thanmoving up in the company as before.Many more people will work for small,dynamic c

10、ing to Dr Laurence Lyons of Future Work,women will be envied25 because they have an advantage26 in this area.James Traeger,spokesman of a government training organisation27，explains that many men will have to be retrained.“Its not about making men more like women,but helping men28 to communicate as

14、技巧至关重要。“未来工作论坛”的劳伦斯莱昂斯博士指出，女性将受人羡慕，因为她们在这一领域占有优势。一家政府培训机构的发言人詹姆士泰瑞格解释说，很多男性将不得不接受再次培训，“其目的不是令男人更像女人，而是帮助男人也能更好地沟通。”商业必定将变得更加国际化。英语可能还会是国际商务语言，所以不必费心去学习俄语或西班牙语。(6)_。首先，一位经理需要能够轻松自如地同来自其他国家和大洲的人共同工作。New technology is the driving force behind these rapid changes,so dont get left behind33.You dont need
