1...Just before 9o'clock on Sunday evening 28 May ,1967, he arrived back in England,where a quarter of a million people were waiting to welcome him.Queen Elizabeth II knighted him with the very sword that Queen Elizabeth I had usde almost 400 years earlier to knight Sir Francis Drake after th had sailed round the world for the first time .The whole voyage from England and back had covered 28,500 miles.It had taken him nine months ,of which the sailing time was 226 days .He had done what he wanted to accomplish.
2...Many people in the Unitde States spend most of their free time watching television .Certainly,there are many worthwhile programs on television, including news,educational programs for dhildren ,programs on current social prlblems ,plays ,movies,concerts,and so on .Nevertheless,perhaps people should not be spending so much of their time in front of the TV.Mr Mayer imagines what we might do if we were forced to find other activities.
3...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 prlduct ."
"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 afternon ,they will be more efficient."
"If excellent work results in frequent pay increases or prmotions,the workers will have freater incentive to produce"
4...In a certain store where they sell puddings,a number of these delicious things are laid out in a row duing the Christmas season .Here you may select the one which is most to your taste ,and you are even allowed to sample them before coming to a decision
I have often wondered whether some people ,who had no intention of making a purchase ,would take advantage of this privilege .One day I asked this question of the shop firl ,and Ilearned it was indeed the case.
5...Earlier scientists thought that during a man's lifetime the power of his brain decreased .But it is now thought that thisis not so .As long as the brain is given plenty of esercise it kees its power.It has been found that an old person who has always been mentally active has a quicker mind than a young person who has done only physical work .It is now thought that the more work we five our brains ,the more work they are able to do .
