A lively discussion followed. A banker，who was then younger and more nervous than the lawyer，suddenly lost his temper and cried out，“It's a lie. I bet you two millions. You wouldn't stick in a cell even for five years. ”
“If you mean it，”replied the young lawyer，“I bet I'll stay there longer；make it fifteen instead of five. ”
“Fifteen!Done!”cried the banker. “Gentleman. I bet you two millions. ”
“Agreed. Two millions for my freedom，”said the lawyer.
So this wild，ridiculous bet came to pass. The banker could not hide his excitement. During supper he said to the lawyer jokingly，“Come to your senses，young man，before it's too late. Two millions are nothing to me，but you stand to lose three or four of the best years of your life. I say three or four because you'll never stick it out any longer. Don't forget that voluntary imprisonment is much harder to put up with than an enforced one. The idea that you have the right to free yourself any moment will poison your life in the cell. I pity you. ”
And now the banker，pacing from comer to comer，recalled all this and asked himself，“Why did I make this bet？What's the good？The lawyer lost fifteen years of his life and I threw away two millions. Will it convince people that capital punishment is worse or better than imprisonment for life？No，no!Rubbish!On my part，it was the caprice(心血来潮)of a well-fed millionaire；on the lawyer's part，it's the pure greed of gold. ”

B．capital punishment was immoral
C．it was better than capital punishment
D．the banker would give him $200,000

The survey of more than 6,000managers and employees in 26 organizations in the U.S. and Canada showed that employees and managers felt their employers did a good job explaining their performance objectives and the way their performance is measured. They were unclear, though, about how performance was related to pay. Surprisingly, employees reported they knew more about stock options at their companies and how they are determined than how base pay is. However, the results showed that base pay knowledge plays a larger role in overall pay satisfaction than do other forms of compensation, such as bonuses. Employees who had higher levels of pay knowledge showed greater overall pay satisfaction, which, in turn, was linked to higher levels of retention(聘用), commitment to the company, and even trust in management. In other words, Heneman emphasizes, ensuring that employees understand their pay is good for a company’s bottom line.
He feels that corporate culture is often a major problem in dealing with the lack of pay knowledge among workers. In many companies, it is considered taboo—or even explicitly forbidden—to discuss matters dealing with salary. In lieu of (代替) disclosing actual pay amounts of employees to others within the company, management can provide more information about pay practices and policies, such as the process used to determine salary, and the average of raises in a particular year. Workers want more than generalities; they want to know how pay policies apply to their particular situation, Heneman points out. That often means managers need to sit down with their employees one-on-one.
