Corporations are starting to reach the conclusion that desk-bound jobs constitute occupational hazards. So they are spending large sums of money on facilities to keep their employees physically and mentally healthy and productive. In ten years’ time such programs will be so commonplace that people will not accept a job in companies without one.
Informed sources argue that this trend is not just a temporary one, and business health expert James Shepherd, of the Business Health Advisory Commission, emphasizes that "fitness programs are the wave of the future and in ten years there will be very few large companies that won’t have become involved." Some major corporations have already set up various fitness operations, costing millions of dollars to build and to keep up, as a means of both recruiting employees and improving their image.
However, this drive for business fitness involves much more than mere recruitment. Industry in this country suffers annual losses estimated at $ 25 billion a year as a result of employees’ dying before their time, and loses billions more through diminished productivity because of ill health and disability. Indeed, it has been officially estimated that backaches alone cost industry no less than one billion dollars annually in production and the like, and $ 225 million more in employees’ compensation(补偿). Such statistics have shaken large corporations into a realization that drastic measures need to be taken to get desk-bound employees out of their seats.
Even though there is as yet no hard evidence to show the benefits of in-house fitness programs, corporate physical fitness is becoming something of an industry in its own right~ According to one member of the President’ s Council, more than five hundred companies across the country have fitness programs managed by full time directors. Even more noteworthy is the national membership of the American Association of Fitness Directors in Business and Industry. When the organization was formed in 1974, there were twenty-five members. Today their number exceeds 1800. [br] From Paragraph 3, it may be concluded that some large companies______.
选项
A、will gladly join in the fitness program
B、have realized the need of effective measures
C、have carried research into the causes of profit losses
D、have come to see backaches are the greatest cause for the losses
答案
B
解析
判断题。该题问“第三段内容告诉我们什么有关大公司的情况?”文章第三段最后一句提到"Such statistics have shaken large corporations into a realization that drastic measures need to be taken to get desk-bound employees out of their seats.”(上述数字已经使大公司认识到应该采取有效措施来使办公桌前的雇员们加入到健身活动中来。)据此,我们可以确定[B]与文章意思相符。
