问题     No one word demonstrated the shift in corporations’ attention in the mid-1990s from processes to people more vividly than the single word "talent".【C1】________the word lies the idea that more and more corporate【C2】________is going to be created by knowledge and by so-called "knowledge workers".【C3】________labour is worth less; knowledge is worth more.
    This has significantly shifted the balance of power in the【C4】________process. Companies used to be relaxed about finding enough qualified people to【C5】________their operations. What they could not find they would train, was the【C6】________attitude. That might take some time, but in a world where people【C7】________jobs for life time was in the company’s favour. But talent is not patient, and it is not faithful. Many companies found themselves training employees【C8】________for them to go on and sell their acquired skills to their【C9】________. So now they look for talent that is ready-made.
    In their eagerness to【C10】________this talent, companies have gone to considerable lengths to appear especially attractive. They have,【C11】________, devoted a great deal of effort to the【C12】________of their websites, often the first port of call these days for bright young【C13】________recruits. They have in many cases【C14】________their HR departments, in part so that they can【C15】________their compensation packages more finely for the individuals that they really require. And they have altered their approach to issues such as governance and environmental responsibility【C16】________they know that many of the talented people they are seeking want to work for ethical and【C17】________employers.
    Talented people increasingly want to work in places where they can feel good about what they do for most of the day. What’s more, in today’s knowledge-based businesses, these young people are far more【C18】________their working environment, of "what’s going on around here", than were their grandparents. It is harder for today’s businesses to【C19】________from their employees what they are【C20】________to—even when, as in cases such as Enron and WorldCom, they put a lot of effort into it.
【C2】

选项 A、culture
B、subordinates
C、value
D、affiliates

答案C

解析 此处需填入corporate修饰的名词,作that同位语从句的主语。知识和knowledge workers(知识工作者)创造出来的是企业价值,故选择C项value“价值”。A项culture“文化”,不能用more and more来形容,只能用richer and richer。B项subordinates“下属。下级”。D项affiliates“附属企业”,根据空格后的is就可以排除这两项复数名词。
