问题     After taking a six-week, fully paid maternity leave(产假)earlier this year, Francine Gemperle was anxious to resume her job but reluctant to be away from her baby daughter, Veronica. Fortunately, she didn’t have to choose between them. Maya Design, a Pittsburgh-based creative consulting firm, allows parents to bring newborns into the office.
    " If I’ d had to leave my children after my maternity leave ended, I would never have gone back to work," says Gemperle, a designer and researcher, who also brought her son Milo into the office after he was born.
    She’ s not the only parent taking advantage of the benefit. Senior analyst Jon West brings his 10-month-old son, Owen, to the office several times a month. In fact, when West considered using only part of his paternity leave,his co-workers urged him to take all six weeks.
    "I had pressure to take that leave," recalls West, "People told me, ’It’ s an important part of your life and you need to experience it.
    "No matter how quiet the baby is, it’ s an obvious distraction(分心的事)," says Tory Johnson,the chief executive of Women for Hire,a New York City-based recruiting firm.
    No one has complained yet. Even if somebody did, it wouldn ’ t matter to Mickey McManus, Maya’ s CEO and president, who argues that the policy builds loyalty and helps parents shift back into work mode.
    As part of its balancing act, Maya shares up to 20% of quarterly profits with its employees. However,the size of those checks might be up in the air at the moment. The firm once laid off five workers and it is now considering 4-day weeks to avoid more layoffs.
    "Be transparent," McManus advises,"so workers know they can trust you.
Which of the following is true about Maya Design?
选项 A、It hires women with families.
B、It has some overseas branches.
C、It provides consulting services.
D、It encourages the staff to work at home.
答案C
解析 由第一段最后一句“Maya Design，aPittsburgh—based creative consulting firm…”可知．Maya Design是一个咨询公司，它提供咨询服务，故选C。
