请教下新东方绿皮114T,127T 如题: 114.To reduce costs, a company is considering a drastic reduction in the number of middle-level managers. This reduction would be accomplished by first offering early retirement to those 50 years of age or older with 15 years of service, and then by firing enough of the others to bring the overall reduction to 50 percent. Each of the following, assuming that it is a realistic possibility, is a possible disvantage to the company of the plan EXCEPT: A. Loyalty to the company will be reduced among those surviving the reduction, because they will perceive the status of even good managers as uncertain. B.The restructuring of managerial jobs will allow business units to be adapted to fit a changing business environment. C.The company will have a smaller pool of managers from which to choose in selecting future senior managers. D.Some of the best managers, unsure of their security agaist being fired, will choose early retirement. E. The increased workload of managers remaining with the company will subject them to stress that will eventually affect their performance. (B) 这道题我感觉好像每一个都是DISVANTAGE, B也是一个劣势,因为公司经理层的重组还是会带来很大的风险的。 难道是因为BE ADAPTED TO FIT A CHANGING ENVIRONMENT? 127 Geoge Bernard Shaw wrote:" That any sane nation, having observed that you could provide for the supply of bread by giving bakers a pecuniary interest in baking for you, should go on to give a surgeon a pecuniary interest in cutting off your leg is enough to make one despair of political humanity" Shaw's statement would best serve as an illustration in an arguement criticizing which of the following ? A.Dentists who perform unnecessary dental work in order to earn a profit. B.Doctors who increase their profits by specializing only in diseases that affect a large percentage of the population. C.Grocers who raise the price of food in order to increase their profit margins. D.Oil companies that decrease the price of their oil in order to increase their marked share. E.Bakers and surgeons who earn a profit by supplying other people's basic needs. (D) 本来想选D的,但从文中找不到根据,谁能帮我解释下文章的,我看不懂,我后来选C,因为提价的话会引起众怒。
