12、，是的，这栋楼太好了！真的很现代 也很宽敞。 罗 布： 是的，但是这个地方是否也会有让你觉 得讨厌的东西？ 珍尼弗： 是的，像所有办公室一样，我想桌子上 会留下许多还没冲洗的咖啡杯，垃圾到 处都是。我真的很讨厌那样。,A-Trans-2,罗 布： 你知道，世间无完美之事。有些人的行 为真是让人恼火。一项新的调查揭示了 一些最让人讨厌的办公室习惯，我来跟 你分享一下。但是我先问你一个问题。 珍尼弗： 真烦人你告诉我之前总是要我回答 你的某个问题。,Reading A,A-Trans-3,罗 布： 你会乐意回答的，真的！你知道下面哪一项 是最令人厌烦的办公室习惯吗？a. 敲桌子； b. 开会迟到；
13、c. 讲行话。 珍尼弗： 这些都是非常糟糕的习惯，哪一个我都不喜 欢，但是我会选a)敲桌子。,Reading A,A-Trans-4,罗 布： 好吧，我马上让你知道答案。管理协会最 近对2000位经理做了问卷调查，想知道他 们最不能容忍办公室员工做哪些事情。他 们把敲桌子列入了最烦人的办公室习惯前 十名。事实上，任何一种敲打都会分散注 意力。但是对于喜欢敲打的人来讲，他 们怎样才能改掉这个习惯呢？他们也许 并没有意识到自己的行为，因此我们应 该要理解。 珍尼弗： 是的，但有一件我无法理解的事就是讲 行话。,Reading A,A-Trans-4,罗 布： 是的，调查表明这是接近最令人讨厌的 办

15、,A-Trans-4,罗 布： 但是如果每一个办公室员工都对他们的 同事头痛，谁应该来舒缓这种紧张的办 公气氛？一个坏的工作氛围不是什么好 事情，对吧？ 珍尼弗： 我想直接主管们有责任去处理这些问题。 人们应该有机会表达自己的不满。好吧， 让我来告诉你我最烦你的是什么 罗 布： 对不起，珍，我们时间到了。,Reading A,a. having a strong effect on sb., especially through size, or importance,Reading A,impressive,e.g. The earthquake is one of the most impressive geological phenomena.,e.g. You passed your test?
