QUESTION 1

Read and summarize written text in your words.

Is it enough to simply have a job, an office or organization to work in and get a cheque at the end of the week? Not anymore. A workplace however large or small has to be driven by efficiency and achievement that manifests itself in the form of tangible results for the organization and is rewarding for the employee. Less productive inputs and lower efficiency levels are bound to affect the business and jeopardize its sustainability and survival.
It is said that a few factors that can help to improve the employee productivity at the workplace. Every employee needs to be well aware that he is accountable for his actions and decisions, and he can neither pass the buck or pass the blame to someone else. This will help him work more meticulously. Every target or milestone set needs to be followed up as well, to see if the progress is sufficient and if not, whether any interim measures can be taken before it is too late to salvage a situation.

What if I say I have a magic wand to improve efficiency- motivation. Encouraging them helps them to move forward and do even better and makes the worker feel happy. Innovative ways of motivating them to spur them even more.

QUESTION 2

Read and summarize written text in your words.

Many studies have investigated effects of organic farming on the abundance and diversity of farmland birds, but few have considered how these effects vary between seasons. We analyzed the effects of the organic farming during an entire year in a previously understudied region, Galicia (North-West Spain), a relatively heterogeneous landscape which is an important wintering and breeding ground for birds. We compared bird abundance and species richness on farmland in 0.5 × 0.5 km study squares on 16 paired organic and conventional farms. In addition, at each organic farm, we compared bird abundance and species richness between one similar study square with a high and one with a low proportion of organic farming, respectively.

During winter, species richness was higher in organic farms compared to conventional ones. Throughout the year bird abundance was higher in squares with a high proportion of organic farming compared to those with a low proportion of organic farming, but only when they were surrounded by land with a low proportion of agriculture. Bird abundance inorganic squares increased with the proportion of land being native forest resulting in more mosaic landscapes.

Seed eaters particularly benefited from organic farming, with high abundances on organic farms in landscapes with a low proportion of agricultural land. Our results suggest that organic farming can benefit farmland birds in heterogeneous landscapes, particularly during winter, probably due to increased food availability, but future studies are needed to clarify the mechanism behind the effects.
