B.His post is likely to disappear when new technologies are introduced
C.He is directly under the chief financial executive

正确答案:D
答案解析:问在美国公司中人力资源部经理一职地位如何。第2段第4句话指出：“担任人力资源部经理一职者在公司作出重大决策时从未被咨询过，也没有机会升任公司总经理。”D项说，“他在公司作重大决定时没有发言权。”两句意思相符，故D为正确答案。
4、According to the passage, the decisive factｏｒin maintaining a firm\'s competitive advantage is（）.【阅读理解A】

5、Why is the question of “how easily people can get used to working at night” not a mere academic question?（）【阅读理解A】
A.Because few people like to reverse the cycle of sleep ａｎｄ wakefulness
B.Because sleep normally coincides with the hours of darkness
C.Because people are required to work at night in some fields of industry
D.Because shift work in industry requires people to change their sleeping habits
正确答案:D
答案解析:本题问“人们能否迅速地适应晚上工作为什么不再是一个纯学术问题”，要求考生按照文章内容进行推断。文章说到，自动化生产要求机器24小时不停地工作，工人也要分3班昼夜轮流工作，因而人们设法适应这种情况是实际生活的需要。因此选项D是答案。选项C只是说在某些行业要上夜班，并未提及倒班，不是本题问及的内容。选项A和选项B与文章内容没有联系。
