9、 when Im 60 and I cant afford a private plan. So Ill probably try and keep working for a few more years, and anyway, I heard the government is planning to rise the age of retirement.精選pptTask 1: Read the following article. What benefits and incentives does the article mention for employees at Xerox?

10、 Reading Is Working for Xerox Too Good to Be True? What a lovely place Xerox is to work! Kim Moloney, a client services executive, cant say enough nice things about her employer. Its a very special environment, she says, People describe Xerox as a family and I was amazed at the number of people who

11、have worked here for so long. Its tempting to take Moloneys comments with a pinch of salt, especially considering that when youve been working somewhere for only two years, as she has at Xerox, everyone seems old and established. But theres truth behind her enthusiasm. Take Carole Palmer, the group

12、resources director. She joined Xerox in 1978 as a temp and has been in her present role for seven years. Xerox has been good to me over the years, she says. It has supported me through qualifications and last year I took part in the vice-president incumbent programme.Task 2精選ppt Human resources is t

13、aken seriously at Xerox, Palmer says, and the company has a policy of promoting from within (which would explain Moloneys amazement at her colleagues longevity). The company takes on only fifteen to twenty graduates each year and Moloney was part of an intake who joined having already acquired a cou

14、ple of years work experience. She started as a project manager for Xerox Global Services before moving into sales. Now her responsibility is to grow and maintain customer relationships. Moloney is based at the head office in Uxbridge. Its great in terms of working environment, she says. Weve jus got

15、 a new provider in the canteen and we have brainstorming rooms and breakout areas. Much of Moloneys role is visiting clients, so she doesnt have a permanent desk at head office. Im a hot-desker, which is good because you get to sit with different people in the hot-desk areas. And youre given a place

16、 to store your things. Head office staff numbers between 1,200 and 1,500 people, Palmer says. The company has four other main offices in the UK. The nature of the organization, which encompasses sales and marketing, global services (the biggest division), developing markets, research and development

17、 and manufacturing, means that the opportunities at the company vary from service engineers to sales roles and consultants. 精選pptlOpportunities for promotionlTraining and staff developmentlA pensionlA reward and recognition scheme Perks include a final-salary pension scheme and various discount sche

18、mes. The reward and recognition scheme is a little different, and rather nice: Each manager has a budget every year to recognize and reward staff, Palmer says. It can be in the form of a meal for two, or a bottle of wine. It can be up to 1,000. Theres the recognition, and then theres putting money b

19、ehind it. Moloney, however, likes the non-cash rewards. Xerox takes care of all its staff but it also recognizes the people who put in the added effort, she says. It offers once-in-a-lifetime incentive trips, and recently I organized a sailing trip fro my team. The idea of working abroad with the co

20、mpany appeals to her, and she says that her career goal is to be part of the senior management team. Heres another employee, it would seem, who is in it for the long haul.Back精選pptTask 2: Choose the best answer, A, B or C for questions 1-5 about the Xerox article.1.The journalist of this article thi
