Workersshould have a role in the very least, the labor force should beinformed of major policy decisions.(A common complaint among rank-and-fileworkers is the lack of information about company policies and actions.) Between1980 and 1985 about five million workers were the victims of plant closings andpermanent layoffs, often with no warning. At least 90 days’ notice ought to begiven in such instances so that workers have time to gement shouldconsult workers before closing a plant, because the workers might be able tosuggest ways of improving productivity and reducing costs and might be willingto make concessions that will keep the plant operating.

Itshould become a general practice to include workers in some managerial e ought to be representatives of the workers on the firm's board ofdirectors or other major policymaking rank-and-file workers aregiven a voice in the planning and management of the work flow, they will helpto make improvement, their morale will rise, and their productivity a further incentive, they must be given a share in the company' can be done through employee stockownership plans, bonuses, orrewards for efficiency and lly, when a plant can no longeroperate at a profit, the workers should be given the opportunity to purchasethe plant and run it themselves.

TheDay a Language Died

WhenCarlos Westez died at the age of 76, a language died, os Westez, morecommonly known as Red Thunder Cloud, was the last speaker of the NativeAmerican language ne who wants to hear various songs of theCatawba can contact the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., where,back in the Thunder Cloud recorded a series of songs for people might even try to learn some of these songs byhearts.(46 F) They are all that is left ofthe Catawba language that people used to speak is gone forever.

Weare all aware of the danger that modern industry can do to the world’s ecology(生态). However, few people are awareof the impact that widely spoken languages have on other languages and ways ish has spread all over the ese, Spanish, Russian, andHindi have become powerful languages as these languages become morepowerful, their use as tools of business and culture increases.(47 D)When this happens, hundreds oflanguages that are spoken by only a few people die out.

Scholarsbelieve there are around 6,000 languages around the world, but more than halfof them could die out within the next 100 e are many examples. Arakiis a native language of the island of Vanuatu, located in the Pacific spoken by only a few adults, so like Catawba, Araki will soon languages of Ethiopian will have the same fate because each one has only a a New Guinea is an extremely rich source of differentlanguage, but more than 100 of them are in danger of extinction(灭绝).(48 C)In the Americas, 100 languages,each of which has fewer than 300 speakers, also are dying out.

RedThunder Cloud was one of the first to recognize the threat of language deathand to try to do something about was not actually born into the Catawbatribe, and the language was not his mother ver, he was afrequent visitor to the Catawba reservation in South Carolina, where he learnedthe language.(49 A)The songs he sang forthe Smithsonian Institution helped to make Native American music e is gone, and the language is dead.

Whatdoes it mean for the rest of us when a language disappears? When a plant,insect, or animal species dies, it is easy to understand what we’ve lost and toappreciate what this means for the balance of the natural ver,language is only a product of the be the last remaining speaker of alanguage, like Red Thunder Cloud, must be a lonely destiny, almost as strangeand terrible as being the last surviving member of a dying therest of us, when a language dies, we lose the possibility of a unique way ofseeing and describing the world.(50 B)

people might want to try to learn some of these songs by heart.

these languages become more powerful, their use as tools of business andculture increases.

a New Guinea is an extremely rich source of different language, but morethan 100 of them are in danger of extinction(灭绝).

ver, he was a frequent visitor to the Catawba reservation in SouthCarolina, where he learned the language.

the rest of us, when a language dies, we lose the possibility of aunique way of seeing and describing the world.
