The more women and minorities make their way into the ranks of management, the more they seem to want to talk about things formerly judged to be best left unsaid. The newcomers also tend to see office matters with a fresh eye, in the process sometimes coming up with critical analyses of the forces that shape everyone’s experience in the organization.
Consider the novel views of Harvey Coleman of Atlanta on the subject of getting ahead. Coleman is black. He spent 11 years with IBM, half of them working in management development, and now serves as a consultant to the likes of AT&T, Coca-Cola, Prudential, and Merch. Coleman says that based on what he’s seen at big companies, he weighs the different elements that make for long-term career success as follows: performance counts a mere 10%; image, 30%; and exposure, a full 60%. Coleman concludes that excellent job performance is so common these days that while doing your work well may win you pay increases, it won’t secure you the big promotion. He finds that advancement more often depends on how many people know you and your work, and how high up they are.
Ridiculous beliefs? Not to many people, especially many women and members of minority races who, like Cokeman, feel that the scales (障碍物) have dropped form their eyes. "Women and blacks in organizations work under false beliefs," says Kaleel Jamison, a New York-based management consultant who helps corporations deal with these issue. "They think that if you work hard, you’ll get ahead-that someone in authority will reach down and give you a promotion." She adds, "Most women and blacks are so frightened that people will think they’ve gotten ahead because of their sex or color that they play down (使……不突出) their visibility." Her advice to those folks: learn the ways that white males have traditionally used to find their way into the spotlight.
The best title for this passage would be ______.
选项
A、Role of Women and Minorities in Management
B、The Importance of Being Visible
C、Job Performance and Advancement
D、Sex and Career Success
答案
B
解析
该题为概括理解题。文章一开头引出话题,接着文章第二段最后一句就提出中心观点:要提升,就要让人了解你,尤其是要让你的上司了解你。第三段最后又再次告诫妇女和黑人,要象男性白人那样展示自我。所以整篇文章强调的是:表现自我的重要性。因此正确是B。A与原文没有关系,C项内容正好与原文内容矛盾,D项偏面反映了文章思想内容,A、C、D都不合题意。
