2022年考博英语-四川师范大学考前提分综合测验卷（附带答案及详解）1. 单选题The benefits of a diverse workforce are only seen if the staff is well managed. Bosses need to understand that people with differing backgrounds will come up with ideas in different ways and give them the flexibility to be creative in their custom.That comes together with a couple steps; first, managers need to be sure they are actively pursuing new hires that not only add diversity but also offer a new perspective.The key is not just adding a Hispanic woman to the staff because you dont have one now. Its best to seek people whose backgrounds are different from your current staff as they will likely find solutions in different ways.Take the accounting firm Deloitte, an early adopter of diversity. The firm was training minorities to become top managers, but then it often lost them before they reached the executive levelas often happens in that profession. So Deloitte created a new executive training program that urged its accountants to stay on rather than jumping to another firm for advancement. This assured that the minorities the company was grooming for top management wouldnt leave the company before reaching higher ranks.But its not just about putting minorities in a few jobs and having them run things as usual. For instance, immigrants from countries where banks have failed or simply arent trusted may need to build a relationship with someone in a branch before depositing their money. A local branch manager who understands that relationship may be more likely to get that business.Having a diverse workforce is only an advantage if youre able to utilize that diversity. Its understanding the experience of people and what they can bring to your business.The floating market is a little microcosm of that. Every day, locals and tourists peruse the stands and counters that jut out from the boats. The customers are all shades and backgrounds, and thats just the way the islanders like it.The same can happen at offices. But its up to managers to show they value ideas as creative as the floating market.1. Which of the following statements best summarizes the passage?2. What is most valued about minority groups?3.
