After I made observations for a week, Mr. Hobbs asked me for an oral report of my findings. I covered my major points by telling him the following:
我观察了一个星期后，霍布斯先生便要我就调查结果作一个口头汇报。我把要点概括了一下向他汇报如下：
"If you have a quality control inspection, you will greatly improve your finished product."
“如果实行质量检验，你们就会大大改进成品。”
"If the assembly line is redesigned, a smooth work flow can be achieved and time and energy can be saved."
“如果把装配线重新设计一下，生产流程就会达到平稳，并能节省时间和精力。”
"If you decrease the height of the worktables, the machine operators will work more comfortably."
"如果降低工作台的高度，机器操作工作业时就会舒服一些。”
"If the management provides pleasant background music and beautifies the dull setting, the factory will be much more productive."
“如果厂方播放悦耳的背景音乐，美化一下单调的环境，工厂的生产率就可以大大提高。”
"If the workers have a fifteen-minute coffee break in the morning and afternoon, they will be more efficient."
“如果工人们在上、下午各有一次十五分钟的休息时间喝咖啡，他们的效率就会更高。”
"If excellent work results in frequent pay increases or promotions, the workers will have greater incentive to produce."
“如果工作出色能经常得到加薪提拔，工人们就会有更大的生产积极性。”
Mr. Hobbs thanked me for this report and told me he would talk over my suggestions with his brother, the co-owner and manager of the factory. "We're interested in progress here," he said. "We want to keep up with the times." He also gave me a check for $ 100 and a box of shirts with his compliments.
霍布斯先生对我的汇报表示感谢，并告诉我说他将和他的兄弟——该厂的另一位厂主兼经理——讨论我的建议。“我们关心工厂的发展，”他说。“我们要跟上时代的步伐。”他还送给我一张一百美元的支票并赠送给我一盒衬衫。
