For most of American history, businesses were run to provide
livelihoods and "reasonable" profit. In the last few decades,
though, business and society in the general have moved toward【M1】______
emphasizing profit maximization and individual self-interest. The
transfer from "reasonable profit" to profit maximization has【M2】______
significant implications for corporate behavior and government
regulation. However, how society views the purpose of the【M3】______
corporation has significant implications not only for business, but
also for the perceived responsibilities of its civilians, their【M4】______
interactions with each other, and their obligation to their fellow
countrymen.
Today, it is uncommon for corporations to direct their【M5】______
attention to serving for shareholder and management interests, and【M6】______
to achieving the highest short-term financial return. Not only has
this view become commonplace in society and the economy, it has
permeated educational institutions and affected how young people
see the role of corporations.
Lost in this orientation, though, is a sense of the corporation
as a creature of the state, created and gave special powers and【M7】______
privileges by the state. The historic balance between "we" versus
"me" has shifted dramatic toward a focus on self-interest at the【M8】______
expense of societal interest. The result has been a decline in broad
social and economic values in favor of viewing the corporation
solely a vehicle for personal financial enrichment. That view【M9】______
represents a significant shift from the historical—which the grant【M10】______
of corporate privilege was to advance public purposes such as
building roads, bridges, and canals.
【M4】
选项
答案
civilians—citizens
解析
词汇错误。civilian指相对于军人或官员而言的平民百姓:citizen指拥有某国国籍或有某地区合法身份的人,即公民。根据上下文语义,此处指的是全社会的人,而不是仅指平民,故应改为citizens,符合上下文语义。
