选项
A、They now rely on outdated management techniques.
B、They seldom engaged in short-term trading of the stock they owned.
C、They did not influence the investment policies of the corporations in which they invested.
D、They now play a much smaller role in the stock market as a result of antitrust legislation.
E、They were primarily concerned with maximizing the short-term profitability of the corporations in which they owned stock.
答案
B
解析
To answer this question, you must use information contained in the passage to infer something about the “old-style capitalist” referred to in line 23. The best answer is B. According to lines 1-7 of the passage, the individual capitalists of the past, referred to later in the passage as “old-style” capitalists (line 23), could not “sell out for a quick profit” because to do so would depress the value of their stocks. From this statement it can be inferred that someone who typifies the “old-style capitalist” would be unlikely to engage in short-term stock trading. Choice A is incorrect. A comparison between the old-style capitalists and their modern counterparts is made in lines 36-38, but the passage does not express an opinion about whether or not the management techniques used by these capitalists are outdated. Choice C is not the correct answer. The passage does not discuss the investment policies of the corporations in which financial institutions invest. Choice D is also incorrect. According to the passage (lines 1-2; line 23), the old-style capitalists were individual investors, not large institutions. While the passage stats that large institutions are affected by anti-trust legislation (lines 8-12), it says nothing about whether this legislation affects individual investors. In addition, the passage does not mention anything about how great a role individual investors now play in the stock market. Choice E is also incorrect. The passage states that the old-style capitalists focused on long-term productivity (lines 5-8), and hence not on short-term profitability.
