问题     "Who am I, really?" Philosophers, psychologists, and neuroseientists—not to mention poets and artists—have been trying to answer this question for centuries. The good news for business leaders is that they don’t need to turn into armchair psychotherapists, or get an advanced degree in metaphysics, to figure it out. Nor do average employees need to dig deep into their unconscious, or unleash their inner Freud. In the business world, there is a far simpler way of working out who we are, at least when it comes to our professional personas; just pay attention to how others see us.
    【T1】Social science research says that who we are at work is predominantly defined by what other people think of us how they measure the success of our behaviors and actions, how they perceive our characters and motivations, and how they compare us to others. Whether we get informal advice from our peers, or partake in formal assessment-related exercises, there is no better way to pinpoint who we are at work than to crowd source evaluations of our reputations and personal " brands.
    Academic research indicates that people with high functioning and accurate self-perceptions incorporate other people’s opinions into their sense of self. 【T2】This may run counter to popular advice, but the ability to present ourselves in strategic ways is indeed critical to succeeding in any professional context. Those who live by the mantra "don’t worry too much about what other people think of you" may hinder their own career advancement. As academic reviews have highlighted, successful people worry a lot about their reputations, and they care deeply about portraying themselves in a socially desirable way.
    Now that so much of our communication takes place on-line, however, we have all become our own "avatars" and have access to much (if not most) of the same information that others do. The mountain of data each of us produces on the internet is the raw material used to fuel the artificial intelligence ( AI) algorithms that track our digital "footprints. " 【T3】It’s also what other people—and organizations— use to make quick judgments about our personal and professional attributes, particularly when they are deciding whether to recruit us, hire us, invest in our startups, collaborate with us, or compete with us.
    Even if our social media accounts are private, there is likely ample public information that any person determined to assess us can access. 【T4】Consider how easily corporations use our digital personas to evaluate us, ascertain our preferences, "profile" us based on demographics, and sell us things. We can be sure that recruiters, investors, peers, and competitors are also using the same data to generate and test hypotheses about who we are, what we care about, and our odds of success in different scenarios.
    But we have options. 【T5】While people and corporations are busy using our data to influence and judge us, we have the ability to curate our online  profiles in a way that will influence them.
【T3】

选项

答案这也是他人和组织用来快速判断我们的个人品质和专业能力的工具,尤其是在决定是否招聘我们、雇佣我们、投资我们的初创公司以及与我们合作或竞争的时候。

解析 本句为复合句。其主干句为It’s also what other people…use to make quick judgmentsabout our personal and professional attributes。When引导的为时间状语从句,其中whether引导的为deciding的宾语从句。本句翻译时,注意“personal and professional attributes”的翻译,需要分别把attributes根据搭配译为“个人品质和专业能力”。
