屁屁豆的成长日记：做一个勇敢努力的阳光美少女【脚踏实地，坚信努力就会有好运！】

叶晴豆

成败不由己，但求无愧我心。

叶晴豆

早晨做了一个梦，感受到爆棚的压力。考试越来越近，心态还是不平稳，作息也还没调整好，白天总是困。
但我相信，一切都会慢慢变好起来。
今日任务：
上午：阅读两篇+单词常规
下午：SC 笔记对照曼哈顿复习完+gaps刷到50题（进展真的很慢）
晚上：先完成SC，再继续逻辑

叶晴豆

做了一篇GWD阅读，全错，吓尿了。
论坛一搜发现我不是一个人，遂淡定。
下午起来好好分析一下。
-------------------------------
Why firms adhere to or deviate from their strategic plans is poorly understood. However---提出观点, theory and limited research suggest that the process through which such plans emerge may play a part. In particular---具体解释, top management decision-sharing- consensus-oriented, team-based decision-making may increase the 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 organizations will subsequently adhere to their plans.---第一段说要看公司为何会遵守或违背计划，计划的形成过程可能是个因素：提出观点，强因果给出解释

HoweverQ1, the relationship between top management decision-sharing and adherence to plans may be affected by a firm's strategic mission P1所说的关系会被战略性任务影响---这里没有理解清楚是整篇文章没把握好的关键：到底有没有驳斥？ (its fundamental approach to increasing sales revenue and market share, and generating cash flow and short-term profits). At one end of the strategic mission continuum, "build" strategies are pursued when a firm desires to increase its market share and is willing to sacrifice short-term profits to do so. At the other end, "harvest" strategies are used when a firm is willing to sacrifice market share for short-term profitability and cash-flow maximization.---给出两种战略的定义 Research and theory suggest that提出观点 top management decision-sharing may have a more positive relationship with adherence to plans among firms with harvest strategies than among firms with build strategies. In a study of strategic practices in several large firms, Q3managers in harvest strategy scenarios were more able to adhere to their business plans. As one of the managers in the study explained it, this is partly because ---解释前面的观点"typically all a manager has to do when implementing a harvest strategy is that which was done last year."Additionally---继续解释为什么harvest strategy的经理更容易adhere to plan, managers under harvest strategies may have fewer注意比较词 strategic options than do those under build strategies; it may therefore be easier to reach agreement on a particular course of action through decision-sharing, which will in turn tend to promote adherence to plans. Conversely, in a "build" strategy---从另一个strategy来解释这个观点，加强意思 scenario, individual leadership, rather than decision-sharing, may promote adherence to plans. Build strategies - which typically require leaders with strong personal visions for a firm's future, rather than the negotiated compromise of the team-based decision - may be most closely adhered to when implemented in the context of a clear strategic vision of an individual leader, rather than through the practice of decision-sharing---最后这个大长句子，看的时候花了半天时间，实际上没什么引申意思，因为没有转折，所以跟前句一样，在从build strategy的方面加深前面的观点.---总的来说这一段就是两个不同的战略会影响公司是否遵守plan, 提出观点harvest strategy的manager会更容易adhere to plan，后面都在解释这个观点。

注：adhere to是“坚持，遵循，遵守”的意思，跟“黏附”没什么关系。这个意思我读到后面猜出来了。

Q1 Which of the following best describes the function of the first sentence 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 abouthow 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

正确答案 D  
你的答案B
P1提到management D会提高公司adhere to plan的likelihood，而P2的这句话表示它们之间的关系还会被其他因素影响。
这题非常鲜明的教训就是，注意作者的语气：第二段第一句中有一个硕大的may。
比较两个选项的差别：B是驳斥，D是评价，D的语气显然弱于B。代入文章的意思看，如果是驳斥：就是完全否定掉他们的relationship，但作者并没有完全否定。

Q2 The primary purpose of the passage is to                                 

A identify some of the obstacles that make it difficult for firms to adhere to their strategic business plans
B compare two different theories concerning why firms adhere to or deviate from their strategic plans
C evaluate the utility of top management decision-sharing as a method of implementing the strategic mission of a business
D discuss the respective advantages and disadvantages of build and harvest strategies among several large firms
E examine some of the factors that may affect
whether or not firms adhere to their strategic plans 文章开头提出一个问题，后面都在尝试解答。

Q3 The author includes the quotation in highlight text of the passage most probably in order to                                 

A lend support to the claim that firms utilizing harvest strategies may be more likely to adhere to their strategic plans 原句改写
高亮的话改一下顺序就是：when implementing a harvest strategy， all a manager typically has to do is that which was done last year
B suggest a reason that many managers of large firm prefer harvest strategies to build strategies 看起来有道理，实际上加了个无关信息
C provide an example of a firm that adhered to its strategic plan because of the degree of its managers' commitment 没说---错选：问的是作者in order to，应该是解释了为什么harvest strategy更容易adhere to plan，这个选项后半句看起来和高亮的意思有点像，实际上完全不对。
D demonstrate that managers implementing harvest strategies generally have better strategic options than do managers implementing build strategies 更后面内容相关，跨层
E give an example of a large firm that successfully implemented a harvest strategy  无关
这道题得到的教训就是：不要关注细节本身的内容，而要关注细节的作用。放在这是解释观点的，不要去试图找跟这个例子本身内容很像的选项---思路有问题。
