As we all know, different countries have different cultures. "Culture is the collective programming of the mind which distinguishes the members of one category of people from another."
It is inevitable that the cultural difference has impact on business. For example, when a company having a meeting, the word "table" in American English means to put something on the agenda. But in British English it means to put something off the agenda. This example indicates how the culture affects the business.
There are four cultural dimensions (方面) that were defined in Hofstede’s research: power distance, uncertainty avoidance, individualism, masculinity (男子气概). And recently Hofstede added one more: long-term and short-term orientation.
Recently, Hofsteda said in a speech: "What I think the most significant influence in cultural difference is the power distance. I considered it as how much subordinates can consent or dissent with bosses or managers. It is the distance between a manager and subordinate. Among most oriental corporate cultures, there is hierarchism (等级制度), greater centralization." [br] In American English, the word "table" means ______when having a meeting.
选项
A、to put something on the agenda
B、to put something off the agenda
C、something used to hold a meeting
D、something used to call off a meeting
答案
A
解析
事实细节题。由线索词“table”定位到第二段第二句。文中举例说,在开会时,table在美式英语中指“把某事提上议程”,而在英式英语中则指“将某事暂缓处理”,因此A)正确。
