公司为什么会选择坚持现有策略或者改变的文章

Which of the following best describes the function of the first sentence (lines 17-24) of the second paragraph of the passage?
A.    To answer a question posed in the first sentence of the passage about why firms adopt particular strategic missions
B.    To refute an argument made in the first paragraph about how top management decision-making affects whether firms will adhere to their strategic plans
C.    To provide evidence supporting a theory introduced in the first paragraph about what makes firms adhere to or deviate from their strategic plants
D.    To qualify an assertion made in the preceding sentence (lines 6-16) about how top management decision-making affects the likelihood that firms will adhere to their strategic plans
E.    To explain a distinction relied on in the second paragraph (lines 17-68) regarding two different kinds of strategic missions

文章节选:
Why firms adhere to or deviate from their strategic plans is poorly understood.  However, theory and limited research suggest that the process through which such plans emerge may play a part.  In particular, top management decision-sharing—consensus-oriented, team-based decision-making—may increase the (10) likelihood that firms will adhere to their plans, because those involved in the decision-making may be more committed to the chosen course of action, thereby increasing the likelihood that (15) organizations will subsequently adhere to their plans.  
However, the relationship between top management decision-sharing and adherence to plans may be affected (20) by a firm’s strategic mission (its fundamental approach to increasing sales revenue and market share, and generating cash flow and short-term profits). .................................................................

你可以试着看讨论帖，我就是看了好多讨论帖看懂的。而且不知道你问的是什么问题。。

首先，此题算争议题。d or e？

然后，qualify是限定的意思。第一段说，decision-sharing会提高adhere的可能性，而第二段首句说sharing和adhere的关系受到mission的影响。那你觉得限定说得通吗？我举得说得通哈~

最后，由于p2以however开始，那p2开头句应该是和上文有联系的，e没有体现这种联系。同时，从p2首句好像不能看出它是在explain什么，它只是在陈述一个事实。我还认为，e的错不在distinction，distinction有特征的意思，特征不就是sharing和adhere的关系受到mission的影响吗？

以上大部分来自从前的讨论帖哦~只有最后一点是我自己认为的。。。

btw。你可以学习下这里的搜索问题方法，否则去讨论汇总里找很麻烦。用论坛搜索也感觉不好。用google。从原文中复制一段关键词+site:chasedream.com  or  site:manhattangmat.com就好(后者肯定不适用gwd的题)。不要用那个以为他自己什么都知道的baidu哦~他很蠢的~

If you qualify a statement, you make it less strong or less general by adding a detail or explanation to it.
