UNIT 6TEXTSan set out to improve efficiency at the shirt factory but, as we find out later in this unit, his plans turned out not quite as he had expected.Sam Adams, Industrial EngineerIf you ask my mother how I happened to become an industrial engineer, she'll tell you that I have always been one.She means that I have always wanted everything to be well organized and neat. When I was still in elementary school, I liked to keep my socks in the upper left-hand drawer of my bureau, my underwear in the upper right drawer, shirts in the middle drawer, and pants, neatly folded, in the bottom drawer.In fact, I was the efficiency expert for the whole family. I used to organize my father's tools, my mother's kitchen utensils, my sister's boyfriends.I needed to be efficient. I wanted to be well organized. For me, there was a place for everything and everything was always in its place. These qualities gave me a good foundation for a career in industrial engineering.Unfortunately, I was also a bit bossy and I wasn't a very good listener. You'll see what I mean when I tell you about the first project I ever did after I finished my bachelor's degree at the university.After graduation I returned home to my small town in Indiana. I didn't have a job yet. Mr. Hobbs, a friend of my father's, owned a small shirt factory in town. Within the past five years it had grown from twenty to eighty workers. Mr. Hobbs was worried that his plant was getting too big and inefficient, so he asked me to come in on a short-term basis as a consultant.I went to the plant and spent about a week looking around and making notes. I was really amazed at what I saw.Most curious of all, there was no quality control whatsoever. No one inspected the final product of the factory. As a result some of the shirts that were put in boxes for shipment were missing one or two buttons, the collar, even a sleeve sometimes!The working conditions were poor. The tables where the workers sat were very high and uncomfortable. Except for a half hour at lunchtime, there were no breaks in the day to relieve the boring work. There was no music. The walls of the workrooms were a dull gray color. I was amazed that the workers hadn't gone on strike.Furthermore, the work flow was irregular. There was one especially absent-minded young man in the assembly line who sewed on buttons. After a while I recognized him as "Big Jim," who used to sit behind me in math class in high school. He was very slow and all the shifts were held up at his position. Workers beyond him in line on his shift had to wait with nothing to do; therefore, a great deal of time and efficiency were lost as Big Jim daydreamed while he worked. All week I wondered why he wasn't fired.After I made observations for a week, Mr. Hobbs asked me for an oral report of my findings.I covered my major points by telling him the following:"If you have a quality control inspection, you will greatly improve your finished product.""If the assembly line is redesigned, a smooth work flow can be achieved and time and energy can be saved.""If you decrease the height of the worktables, the machine operators will work more comfortably.""If the management provides pleasant background music and beautifies the dull setting, the factory will be much more productive.""If the workers have a fifteen-minute coffee break in the morning and afternoon, they will be more efficient.""If excellent work results in frequent pay increases or promotions, the workers will have greater incentive to produce."Mr. Hobbs thanked me for this report and told me he would talk over my suggestions with his brother, the co-owner and manager of the factory. "We're interested in progress here," he said. "We want to keep up with the times."He also gave me a check for $ 100 and a box of shirts with his compliments.NEW WORDSefficiencyn. the state or quality of being efficient 效率industriala. of industry 工业的neata. orderly and clean 整洁的elementarya. of or for beginners 初等的,初级的sockn. 短袜drawern. 抽屉bureaun. a chest of drawers for bedroom use 衣柜underwearn. 内衣pantsn. trousersexpertn. a person with special knowledge or skill 专家,能手kitchenn. room used for cooking厨房utensiln. any tool or container used in the house, esp. for cooking用具,器皿qualityn. the degree of goodness which a thing or a person possesses质量;品质foundationn. 基础careern. profession; way of making a living职业;生涯engineeringn. 工程学;管理unfortunatelyad. 不幸的是;遗憾的是bossya. always telling other people what to do and how to do it, like a boss 爱指挥人的;专横的projectn. a piece of work; a big plan项目;方案bachelorn. a person who had the first university degree学士graduationn. completion of an educational course毕业graduatevi.short-terma. involving or lasting a short period of time 短期的basisn. 基础;根据consultantn. a person who gives professional or technical advice 顾问consultv.amazevt. fill with great surprise or wonder 使大为惊讶,使惊愕curiousa. strange 奇怪的whatsoevera. of any kind, at all 任何的,丝毫的inspectvt. examine 检查shipmentn. the act of wending, carrying or delivering goods 装运。

现代大学英语精读1unit6课文翻译第六单元青香蕉1.尽管这种事情在任何地方都可能发生,但我与青香蕉的邂逅却源自于巴西腹地一条险峻的山路上。
我那老式吉普车正吃力地穿过景色优美的乡村,这时,水箱突然漏水了,而离我最近的汽车修理站也还要十英里。
发动机过热迫使我在临近的村庄停了下来。
村里有一个小商店和分布在四处的几座房子。
有村民围过来看,三股细细的热水柱从水箱外壳上的小孔喷出来。
“这容易解决,”一个人说到。
他让一个小男孩跑去拿些青香蕉来。
这个人还拍了拍我的肩膀,安慰我问题会解决的。
“青香蕉。
”他笑了,其余的人都这么说着。
2.我和他们闲聊起来,心里却一直在想他们用这青香蕉怎么能修补好水箱。
毫无疑问,提问会暴露我的无知,因此我开始赞叹眼前美丽的乡村景色。
耸立在我们周围巨大的岩石群,很像里约热内卢著名的糖面包山。
“看见那边那块高高的岩石了吗?”那人指着一块特别高而且细长的黑色石柱问我,“那块岩石标志着世界的中心。
”3.我看着他,想知道他是否在和我开玩笑,但他却表情严肃,反过来认真地审视着我,似乎想确定我是否领会了他那句话的深刻含义。
这种情况要求我必须表现出认同。
他点头说:“绝对是中心。
这儿的人都知道。
”4.这时,小男孩抱着青香蕉回来了。
那个男子把其中一根掰成两半,将其断口处按在水箱的外壳上。
香蕉遇到炙热的金属融成了胶,立刻就堵住了漏洞。
面对如此情景,我惊呆了,我当时的表情一定是傻傻的,所有的人都笑了起来。
他们把我的水箱装满水,又让我带上一些香蕉,以防沿途中水箱再出问题。
路上,我又用了一次青香蕉,一个小时后,我开着车到达了目的地。
当地的一修理工笑着问我:“谁教你用青香蕉的?”我告诉了他那个村子的名字。
“他们有没有指给你看标志世界中心的那块岩石?”他问道。
我告诉他,他们指给我看了。
“我祖父就是那儿的人,”他说,“那的确是中心。
一直以来这儿的人都知道。
”5.作为美国教育的产物,除了把青香蕉当作还没长熟的水果,我从来就没注意过它。

Main Idea
When a boy, Sam was the “efficient expert” for the family. When a graduate, Sam was asked to work as a “consultant” in a shirt factory. Sam was greatly surprised by the degree of disorder. Sam put forward some suggestions for the improvement of production and was rewarded by the boss.
Judging from what is described in the text, the story must have taken place in the early 1950s. The US came out of WWII as a “winner”, with its capacity intact. Manufacturers got to realize that efficiency in operation is the key to profits and success. Small factories would occasionally hire a consultant on a short term basis to help them operate more efficiently.
