　　2025年6月四级段落匹配题练习10篇（七）

　　How Do You See Diversity?

　　As a manager, Tiffany is responsible forinterviewingapplicants for some of the positions with hercompany .During oneinterview, she noticed that thecandidate never made direct eye contact. Shewaspuzzled and somewhat disappointed because sheliked the individualotherwise.

　　He had a perfect resume and gave goodresponses to her questions, but the fact that he neverlooked her in the eyesaid “untrustworthy,” so she decided to offer the job to her secondchoice.

　　“It wasn’t untilI attended a diversity workshop that I realized the person we passed overwasthe perfect person,” Tiffany confesses. What she hadn’t known at the time ofthe interviewwas that the candidate’s “different”

　　behavior was simply a culturalmisunderstanding . He was an Asian-American raised in ahousehold where respectfor those in authority was shown by averting(避开) your eyes.

　　“I was justthrown off by the lack of ye contact; not realizing it was cultural,” Tiffanysays. “Imissed out ,but will not miss that opportunity again.”

　　Many of us have had similar encounters withbehaviors we perceive as different. As the worldbecomes smaller and ourworkplaces more diverse, it is becoming essential to expand ourunder-standingof others and to reexamine some of our false assumptions .

　　Hire Advantage

　　At a time when hiring qualified people isbecoming more difficult ,employers who caneliminate invalid biases(偏爱) from the process have a distinctadvantage .My company, Mindsets LLC ,helps organizations and individuals seetheir own blind spots . A real estaterecruiter we worked with illustrates thepositive difference such training can make .

　　“During myMindsets coaching session ,I was taught how to recruit a diversified workforce.Irecruited people from different cultures and skill sets .The agents were ableto utilize their fullpotential and experiences to build up the company .Whenthe real estate market began tochange, it was because we had a diverse agentpool that we were able to stay in the realestate market much longer thanothers in the same profession.”

　　Blinded by Gender

　　Dale is an account executive who attendedone of my workshops on supervising a diverseworkforce . “Through one of thesessions ,I discovered my personal bias ,” he recalls . “Ilearned I had notbeen looking at a person as a whole person , and being open to differences.”In his case , the blindness was not about culture but rather gender.

　　“I had amanagement position open in my department ;and the two finalists were a man andawoman . Had I not attended this workshop , I would have automatically assumedthe man wasthe best candidate because the position required quite a bit ofextensive travel . My reasoningwould have been that even though bothcandidates were great and could have been successfulin the position , I assumedthe woman would have wanted to be home with her children and nottravel.”Dale’s assumptions are another example of the well-intentioned but incorrectthinkingthat limits an organization’s ability to tap into the full potentialof a diverse workforce.

　　“I learnedfrom the class that instead of imposing my gender biases into the situation , Ineededto present the full range of duties, responsibilities and expectationsto all candidates and allowthem to make an informed decision .” Dale creditsthe workshop , “because it helped memake decisions based on fairness .”

　　Year of the Know-It-All

　　Doug is another supervisor who attended oneof my workshops .He recalls a major lessonlearned from his own employee.

　　“One of mymost embarrassing moments was when I had a Chinese-American employee put inarequest to take time off to celebrate Chinese New Year . In my ignorance , Iassumed he hadhis dates wrong , as the first of January had just passed . WhenI advised him of this , I gavehim a long talking-to about turning in requestsearly with the proper dates .

　　“He patientlywaited , then when I was done , he said he would like Chinese New Year didnotbegin January first , and that Chinese New Year ,which is tied to the lunarcycle ,is one of themost celebrated holidays on the Chinese calendar .Needless to say , I felt very embarrassedin assuming he had his dates mixed up. But I learned a great deal about assumptions , and thatthe timing ofholidays varies considerably from culture to culture .

　　“Attending thediversity workshop helped me realize how much I could learn by simplyaskingquestions and creating dialogues with my employees , rather than makingassumptionsand trying to be a know-it-all ,” Doug admits . “The biggest thingI took away from theworkshop is learning how to be more ‘inclusive’ todifferences.”

　　A better Bottom Line

　　An open mind about diversity not onlyimproves organizations internally , it is profitable aswell . These commentsfrom a customer service representative show how an inclusive attitudecanimprove sales .”Most of my customers speak English as a second language . Oneof the bestthings my company has done is to contract with a language servicethat offers translations overthe phone . It wasn’t until my boss receivedMindsets’ training that she was able to understandhow important inclusivenesswas to customer service . As result , our customer base hasincreased .”

　　Once we start to see people as individuals. and discard the stereotypes , we can movepositively toward inclusiveness foreveryone . Diversity is about coming together and takingadvantage of our differencesand similarities . It is about building better communities andorganizationsthat enhance us as individuals and reinforce our shared humanity .

　　When we begin to question our assumptionsand challenge what we think we have learnedfrom our past , from the media,peers , family , friends , etc , we begin to realize that some ofourconclusions are flawed(有缺陷的) or contrary to our fundamental values . We need totrainour-selves to think differently , shift our mindsets and realize that diversityopens doors forall of us ,creating opportunities in organizations andcommunities that benefit everyone.
