问题     As is known to all,  the organization and management of wages and salaries are very complicated. Generally speaking, the Account Department is responsible for calculations of pay, while the Personnel Department is interested in discussions with the employees about pay.
    If a firm wants to adopt a new wage and salary structure, it is essential that the firm should decide on a method of job evaluation and ways of measuring the performance of its employees. In order to be successful, that new pay structure will need agreement between Trade Unions and employers.
    In job evaluation, all of the requirements of each job are defined in a detailed job description. Each of those requirements is given a value, generally in "points", which are added together to give a total value for the job. For middle and higher management, a special method is used to evaluate managers on their knowledge of the job, their responsibility, and their ability to solve problems. Because  of the difficulty in measuring management work, however, job grades for managers are often decided without reference to an evaluation system based on points.
    In attempting to design a pay system, the Personnel Department should compare the value of each job with those in the job market. It should also consider economic factors such as the cost of living and the labor supply.
    It is necessary that payment for a job should vary with any distinctions in the way that job is performed.  Where it is simple to measure the work done, as in the work done with the hands, monetary encouragement schemes are often chosen, for indirect workers, where measurement is difficult, methods of additional payments are employed. [br] The main purpose of this passage is to______.
选项 A、explain how the performance of a job can be measured in points
B、describe the responsibilities of various departments
C、tell readers how a firm can succeed in adopting a new pay system
D、tell readers how difficult the management work is
答案 C
解析 主旨大意题。文章首段指出工资管理的复杂性，二、三两段介绍了评估雇员工作表现的方法和依据，第四段讲工资制度所涉及的因素，第五段指出根据工种不同，工资报酬也各不相同。可见，作者的目的是告诉读者公司如何才能成功采用一项新的薪酬制度。
