Labour is simply another factor of production to be hired or【B2】______at the lowest possible cost— much 【B3】______ one buys raw materials or equipment.
The lack of importance 【B4】______ to human-resource management can be seen in the corporate hierarchy. In an American firm the chief financial officer is almost always second 【B5】______ command.

The executive who 【B7】______ it is never consulted on major strategic decisions and has no chance to 【B8】______ to Chief Executive Officer (CEO).【B9】______, in Japan the head of human-resource management is central—usually the second most important executive, after the CEO, in the firm’ s【B10】______.
As a【B11】______, problems【B12】______when new breakthrough technologies arrive.

选项
A、necessary
B、dispensable
C、central
D、understandable
答案
C
解析
考查形容词辨析。necessary“必要的”;dispensable“非必要的”;central“处于中心位置的”;understandable“可以理解的”。根据语境可知,此处句意为:在美国,传统上,人们并不认为人力资源管理是决定企业生存的核心因素。故C.central为最佳选项。
