选项 A、multinational
B、international
C、national
D、regional
答案A
解析 语义衔接题。本题仅从句中无法确定正确选项，本题前文一直在谈论什么是国际化公司，在文章开篇作者提出了"国际化公司"和"跨国公司"两个概念。根据本题下一句"因而，跨国公司是国际化公司的一种"可以判断出，本句是一过渡句，自然过渡到跨国公司，显然此处应该填入multinational。本题前文一直在谈论国际化公司，接下来在本句中指出"当公司到了后面的阶段，就变成了什么样的公司"，既然句中的公司已经是一直谈及的国际化、公司，这里就不可能再填入international一词；national意为"国家的"，regional意为"地区的"，文章没有提及国家级及地区级公司的概念，故这两个词不符合语境。
