问题 Read the article below about public image.
Choose the best word to fill each gap, from A, B, C or D.
For each question 19—33, mark one letter (A, B, C or D) on your Answer Sheet.
There is an example at the beginning.
                     Significane of the Public Image
    Public image denotes how a company is judged by its customers, suppliers, and stockholders(股东), by the financial community, by the communities in which it operates, and by the federal and local C
    Public image is controllable (19)…just as the product, price, place, and promotional efforts are.
    A firm’s public image (20)…a vital role in the attractiveness of the firm and its products to employees, customers, (21)…to such outsiders as stockholders, suppliers, creditors(债权人), government officials, as well as diverse special groups. With some things it is (22)… to satisfy all the diverse publics: for example, a new highly automated(自动化的)plant may meet the approval of creditors and stockholders, but (23)…will undoubtedly find resistance from employees who see (24)…threatened. On the other hand, high quality products and service standards should bring almost complete approval, (25)…low quality products and false claims would be widely looked down upon.
    A firm’s public image, (26)…it is good, should be treasured and protected. It is a valuable asset that usually is built up over a long and satisfying relationship of a firm with its publics. If a firm has (27)… a quality image, this is not easily countered or imitated by competitors. (28)…an image may enable a firm to charge higher prices, to woo the best distributors and dealers, to attract the best employees, to expect (29)…favourable creditor relationships and lowest borrowing costs. It should also allow the firm’s stock to command a higher price-earning ratio than (30)…firms in the same industry without such a good reputation and public image.
     (31)…of factors affect the public image of a corporation. (32)…include physical facilities, contacts of outsiders with company employees, product quality and dependability(可靠性), prices (33)…competitors, customer service, the kind of advertising and the media and programs used, and the use of public relations and publicity.
选项 A、the other
B、other
C、others
D、another
答案B
解析 这个句子有几个并列的动词不定式短语：to charge．．．，to woo．．．，to attract．．．，to expect…，除了第一个动词后跟的是由形容词比较级修饰的名词外，其他三个动词后都是由最高级修饰的名词：the best distributors and dealers(最好的分销商和各种销售人员)，the best employees(最好的雇员)，the most favourable creditor relationships(与债权人最有利的关系)，(the)lowest borrowing costs(最低的借贷成本)。所以，根据前后的并列成分，应选择最高级形式。作者没有用highest prices，因为这是不可能的，也是不可取的。most前面不加定冠词the是 ’ 非常 ’ 的意思。例如：It was most kind of you to come to see me．你来看我真是太客气了。
