考題解釋?zhuān)?/strong>

對(duì)大多數(shù)人來(lái)說(shuō),成年生活主要是在工作中度過(guò)的,因此工作滿(mǎn)意對(duì)于個(gè)人的幸福來(lái)說(shuō)是一個(gè)非常重要的因素。有哪些因素導(dǎo)致工作滿(mǎn)意?如果讓所有的員工對(duì)自己的工作都感到滿(mǎn)意,這樣的期待有多現(xiàn)實(shí)?

考題難點(diǎn):

本題的難點(diǎn)主要在于第二個(gè)問(wèn)題的理解“How realistic is the expectation of job satisfaction for all workers?”它的精確含義應(yīng)該是“讓所有的員工都對(duì)自己的工作感到滿(mǎn)意,這樣的期望有多現(xiàn)實(shí)?”。很多考生會(huì)由于這個(gè)問(wèn)題不能精確理解而導(dǎo)致寫(xiě)作偏題。

原創(chuàng)范文

A job provides the worker with the necessary means to remain satisfied in almost every aspect of life such as leisure, health, and social life. Consequently, finding a satisfying and motivating job is essential for improving an individual’s overall quality of life, and several key factors are thought to be critical for an employee to achieve job satisfaction.

A reasonable salary is of course the most likely contributor to job satisfaction. In many people’s minds, an ideal job is first of all a well-paid one, which makes the employee feel that he is fairly rewarded for what he has done for the company. Another important element of job satisfaction is the nature of the job itself. Job satisfaction can never be achieved if the work is boring, or if the work is ill-suited to the employee’s education, skills and interests. Finally, job satisfaction is closely associated with being part of the decision-making process in the company as well as having opportunities for promotion.

However, it is very difficult for a company to ensure that all its employees are satisfied with their job. The main reason is that different people have different definitions of job satisfaction. Some people may care salary more than opportunities for promotion. Others may never tolerate a boring task. Also, in the wild chase for quicker and higher profits, ensuring workers’ job satisfaction has become only a secondary or even non-existent goal for many employers.

In conclusion, increasing workers’ job satisfaction can be a challenge for an employer, but for an individual employee, finding the right job and trying to stay positive might be the first step towards achieving job fulfillment and satisfaction.
