The author’s main point is that______
The passage suggests that one of the reasons that early chartered trading companies deserve comparison with early modern multinationals is______
选项
A、the degree to which they both depended on new technology
B、the similar nature of their management structures
C、similarities in their top managemnts’ degree of ownership in the company
D、their common dependence on polical stability abroad in order to carry on foreign operations
E、their common tendency to revolutionize systems of production
答案
B
解析
This question asks you to draw an inference from information presented in the passage about why early chartered trading companies deserve comparison with modern multinationals. The correct answer is B. Lines 1-5 of the passage indicate that modern multinationals originated when “teams of salaried managers organized into hierarchies” replaced owner-managers of nineteenth-century British firms, suggesting that hierarchical management structures are a typical feature of modern multinationals. In lines 24-27, the passage indicates that early chartered trading companies had hierarchical management structures also. The passage implies that similarity of organization is one of the reasons why early chartered trading companies “merit further study as analogues of more modern structures” (lines 48-49). Choices A, D, and E can be eliminated because the passage does not indicate the degree of dependence on technology or discuss the tendency to revolutionize production systems of either early trading companies or modern multination, nor does it suggest that either kind of company relied on political stability. Choice C is incorrect. Lines 40-43 of the passage indicate that top managers in early trading companies owned a substantial minority share of their companies, whereas senior managers in modern multinationals own little if any of their companies.
