题目列表(包括答案和解析)

  There are two basic differences between the large and the small firms. In the small firm you operate primarily through personal contacts. In the large firm you have established“policies”,“channels”of organization, and fairly rigid procedures. In the small firm you have, moreover, immediate effectiveness in a very small area. You can see the effect of your work and of your decisions right away, once you are a little above the ground floor. In the large firm even the man at the top is only a cog in a big machine. To be sure, his actions affect a much greater area than the actions and decisions of the man in the small organization, but his effectiveness is remote indirect, and difficult to see at first sight. In a small and even in a middle-sized business you are normally exposed to all kinds of experiences, and expected to do a great many things without too much help or guidance. In the small one the danger is of becoming a jack-of-all trades and master of none. In the large one it is of becoming the man who knows more and more about less and less.

  There is one other important thing to consider: do you derive a deep sense of satisfaction from being a member of a well-known organization-General Motors, the Bell Telephone System, the government? Or is it more important to you to be a well-known and important figure within your own small pond? There is a basic difference between the satisfaction that comes from being a member of a large, powerful, and generally known organization, and the one that comes from being a member of a family; between impersonal grandeur(大的)and personal of ten much too personal-intimacy; between life in a skyscraper and life in a crossroads gas station.

(1)In a large enterprise, ________.

A.new technology is employed quickly

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

  Leaving a tip in a restaurant has become a custom in most countries.The word “tip” came from the Latin word “Grais”, meaning free.Tips are defined as small gifts of money for service in addition to the payment due.

  Believe it or not, the practice of tipping has a little interesting history.The custom can be traced back to the Roman era.The Romans were the first civilization to use coins.It is possible that the word “tip” came from the word “stipend” .“Stips” in Latin means gift.A more common belief is tips were first given in the 18th century England.A popular coffee house equipped each table with a coin box.The label of each box read, “To insure promptness.” Dropping a coin into the box would result in quick service.Also, the first letter of each word is T.I.P.-tip.

  In America and Europe, it is customary to tip anywhere from 10% to 20%.Taxi drivers, waiters in restaurants, waitresses in lounges, hotel boys, doormen, and disco coat check girls, all expect a little something.People working at these jobs usually receive a low basic salary.Tips are quite necessary to supplement their income.Today most people decide the size of tip according to the quality of the service.If the service and food are not satisfactory, a small tip or possibly no tip will be left.For excellent food and service most people are quite happy to leave a tip.

  The world is full of big spenders and people who act like big spenders.Surprisingly, rich people are not “big tippers” unless entertaining guests.It is no use showing off if nobody is there to watch, right? Many throw money around like water to impress a group of friends out for an evening “on the town” .People who usually cannot afford it are the biggest tippers in front of their friends.It is all part of the show to prove a certain level of social success.Nobody wants to look cheap, stingy, or poor in front of their friends.Over-tipping also gives some satisfaction just to see the waiter's reaction.

  For whatever reason, tipping will continue to be practiced in most countries.Tipping does have its place in our modern society.It will also remain a somewhat personal expression of gratitude.
