问题     A friend of mine is a department manager at a large company. His secretary requested a 10% salary raise.
    The problem was that 10% was a large raise compared to the 5% other employees had received. Was there a win-win(双赢)way out of this problem?
    As they looked at the possibilities, several ideas appeared. The company starts work at 8 am and closes at 5 pm. The manager learned that his secretary got caught in heavy traffic every evening on the way home. They agreed to have her work from 7:30 am to 4:30 pm. This saved her at least 20-25 minutes driving time, a benefit to her at little or no loss to the company.
    They then studied her job in detail. Before long they jointly developed a new idea which gave her more responsibilities, and, at the same time, more interesting work.
    Both parties benefited from the changed arrangement of work. The raise itself was then discussed. A decision was made by agreeing on a 6% raise for three months and then an additional 2% later if the new responsibilities were properly performed. [br] Who will benefit from the new arrangement of work?
选项 A、All the employees in the company.
B、The company and the secretary.
C、The company only.
D、The secretary herself.
答案 B
解析 细节推断题。由题干中的benefit from thenew arrangement of work定位到文章最后一段第一句。该句提到，双方都能从新的工作安排中受益。这里的“双方”是指上文提到的公司和秘书。因此可以确定B)“公司和秘书”为本题的答案。
