Unfortunately most of the science
fiction films of the 1970s were not much influenced by 2001 A Space Odyssey.
Skillfully directed by Stanley Kubrick, 2001. which appeared in 1968, set new
standards for science fiction films. During the next decade, every one of the
dozens of science fiction movies released was compared to 2001 , and all but a
few were found sadly lacking. Admittedly, Kubrick had one of the
largest budgets ever for a film of this kind, but, in my opinion, much of the
movie’s power and appeal was achieved through relatively inexpensive means. For
example, the musical score, which was adapted in large part from
well-known classical compositions, was reinforced by the use of almost
kaleidoscopic visual effects, especially during the space travel sequences.
Spectacular camera work was edited to correspond precisely A. better than 2001: A Space Odyssey B. not as good as 2001: A Space Odyssey C. almost the same as Star Wars D. better than Star Wars

Most conceptions of the process of
motivation begin with the assumption that behavior is, at least in part,
directed towards the attainment of goals or towards the satisfaction of needs or
motives. Accordingly, it is appropriate to begin our consideration of motivation
in the work place by examining the motives for working. Simon points out that an
organization should be able to secure the participation of a person by offering
him inducements (引诱)which contribute in some way to at least one of his goals.
The kinds of inducements offered by an organization are varied, and if they are
effective in maintaining participation they must necessarily be based on the
needs of the individuals. Maslow examines in detail what these
needs are. He points out not only that there are many needs ranging from basic
physiological drives su A. satisfying their physiological needs B. satisfying their self-realization needs C. satisfying hierarchy of their higher-order needs D. first satisfying their lower-order needs

The most sparsely populated county in
Wales is where you will find Britain’s happiest place, say researchers, as Powys
tops the list of 273 districts, with Edinburgh apparently the most miserable
place in Britain. Eight of the top 10 districts with the highest levels of
