Since a union representative visited our company to inform us about our rights and protections, my coworkers have been worrying about health conditions and complaining about safety hazards in the workplace. Several of the employees in the computer department, for example, claim to be developing vision problems from having to stare at a video display terminal for about 7 hours a day. The supervisor of the laboratory is beginning to get headaches and dizzy spells because she says it’s dangerous to breathe some of the chemical smoke there. An X-ray technician is refusing to do her job until the firm agrees to replace its out-dated equipment. She insists that it’s exposing workers to unnecessarily high doses of radiation. She thinks that she may have to contact the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and ask that government agency to inspect the department. I’ve heard that at a factory in the area, two pregnant women, who were working with paint, requested a transfer to a safer department, because they wanted to prevent damage to their unborn babies. The supervisor of personnel refused the request. In another firm the workers were constantly complaining about the malfunctioning heating system, but the owner was too busy or too mean to do anything about it. Finally, they all met and agreed to wear ski-clothing to work the next day. The owner was too embarrassed to talk to his employees. But he had the heating system replaced right away.
22. What does the talk focus on?
23. What did an X-ray technician ask her company to do?
24. What does the speaker say about the two pregnant women working with paint?
25. Why did the workers in the firm wear ski-clothing to work?
选项
A、They requested to transfer to a safer department.
B、They quit work to protect their unborn babies.
C、They sought help from union representatives.
D、They wanted to work shorter hours.
答案
A
解析
原文提到,这两个孕妇请求换岗,转到更安全的部门工作,A与原文内容完全一致,故正确。B“辞职以保护未出生的孩子”是利用原文中的unborn babies制造的干扰,但该项中的quit work明显与原文的transfer不符:C“向工会代表求助”和D“想减少工作时间”均未在文中提及。
