问题 According to the author, the American economic situation is ______.
The author raises the question "what about pain without gain?" because ______.
选项 A、he questions the truth of "no gain without pain"
B、he does not think the productivity revolution works
C、he wonders ff the official statistics are misleading
D、he has conclusive evidence for the revival of businesses
答案B
解析 本篇开头作者引用了一句谚语：没有辛劳，就没有收获。接着话锋一转，提出反问：那么只有辛劳，没有收获呢?这一反问与文章的主题有关。第二段中，作者通过官方统计数字说明美国的经济形势远非商业家们估计的那样乐观。随后，作者又在下面的三个段落中通过具体事实说明在美国所进行的提高生产效益的改革并未取得预期的效果：许多公司的机构重组(re-engineering)很不成熟，致使"收益上的损失远远超出了成本的降低"；为数更多的公司则以简单机械的方式进行机构重组，他们考虑的只是降低成本而对长远利益(long-term profitability)缺乏充分考虑…这样既不完善又问题重重的改革其结果必然是劳而无功的。选项"他认为为提高生产效益所进行的改革未见成效"，正是作者提出反问的寓意所在，故为正确答案。
