As a business grows, the managers become more involved in the day-to-day running of the business and sometimes the longer-term perspective is ignored. The directors are responsible for considering the long-term objectives of the business and for ensuring that resources are organized carefully so that long-term objectives are achieved. Directors are also responsible for reporting to shareholders in company reports, and it is the directors, not the managers, who bear the brunt of shareholders' scorn when profits are down, as well as receiving shareholders' praise when profits are up. Ironically, although directors are not known as managers, their whole job is about management!

We may think of the American economy, as consisting of two completely different sectors.The world of the giant corporations, which can be called the "industrial system", consists of 500 or 600 firms that provide "nearly all communications, nearly all production and distribution of electric power, much transportation, most manufacturing and mining, a substantial share of retail trade, and a considerable amount of entertainment." Outside of this industrial system fall most agricultural enterprises, some mining and trucking, professional and artistic pursuits, some retail trade, and most personal and domestic services.
The classical economic laws of supply and demand still apply to some degree.But today the industrial sector is characterized far more by planning and certainty than by the free play of market forces.It appears that it could scarcely be otherwise.In large corporations with advanced technological systems and complex organizations of highly trained specialists, plans for producing any one item are made well in advance.Such plans, once made, are hard to change.Because long-term planning demands certainty, market forces are avoided by various means.For example, the corporation may achieve "vertical integration" by buying companies that supply raw materials at one end of the process and distribution outlets at the other.Corporations may agree on "just prices" for things they buy and sell.They may enter mutually advantageous long-term contracts with suppliers and customers.Moreover, in their quest for certainty they generally have the support of the state.
26.The American giant corporations possess so many new characteristics that
A) highly educated managers are important for the corporations
B giant corporations become decentralized

28.From the whole passage, we can infer that American economy .
A is experiencing the rise of giant corporations
B is determined by hundreds of giant corporations
C has failed to balance supply and demand
D becomes highly-planned one
29.In the third sentence of last paragraph, the second "it" may refer to.
A classic economic law of supply and demand
B industrial sector
C American economy
D market force
30.Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?
A American economy is characterized by high technology and giant corporations.
B American economy consists of industrial systems and agricultural enterprises.
C.Market economy is gradually replaced by planned economy.
D Highly trained specialists are needed.

The survey of more than 6,000managers and employees in 26 organizations in the U.S. and Canada showed that employees and managers felt their employers did a good job explaining their performance objectives and the way their performance is measured. They were unclear, though, about how performance was related to pay. Surprisingly, employees reported they knew more about stock options at their companies and how they are determined than how base pay is. However, the results showed that base pay knowledge plays a larger role in overall pay satisfaction than do other forms of compensation, such as bonuses. Employees who had higher levels of pay knowledge showed greater overall pay satisfaction, which, in turn, was linked to higher levels of retention(聘用), commitment to the company, and even trust in management. In other words, Heneman emphasizes, ensuring that employees understand their pay is good for a company’s bottom line.
He feels that corporate culture is often a major problem in dealing with the lack of pay knowledge among workers. In many companies, it is considered taboo—or even explicitly forbidden—to discuss matters dealing with salary. In lieu of (代替) disclosing actual pay amounts of employees to others within the company, management can provide more information about pay practices and policies, such as the process used to determine salary, and the average of raises in a particular year. Workers want more than generalities; they want to know how pay policies apply to their particular situation, Heneman points out. That often means managers need to sit down with their employees one-on-one.

A. explain what their performance objectives were

A. be willing to remain in the bottom line
B. be willing to be loyal and dedicated to the company
