100. One way to judge the performance of a company is to compare it with other companies. This technique, commonly called "benchmarking", permits the manager of a company to discover better industrial practices and provide a justification for the adoption of goog pratices.
Any of the following, if true, is a valid reason for benchmarking the performance of a company against companies with which it is not in competition rather than against competitors EXCEPT:
(A) Comparisons with competitors are most likely to focus on practices that the manager making the comparisons already employs.
(B) Getting "inside" information ablout the unique practices of competitors is particularly difficult.
(C) Since companies that compete with each other are likely to have comparable levels of efficiency, only benchmarking against noncompetitors is likely to reveal practices that would aid in beating competitors.
(D) Managers are generally more receptive to new dieas that they find outside their own industry.
(E) Much of the success of good companies is due to their adoption of practices that take advantage of the special circumstances of their products or markets.
这题首先我自己都觉得问题理解起来都困难，看完文章后我就用紧扣元素法选了C，但答案是E，理解不了。这题属于什么类型题呢？是削弱吗？
求哪位大牛能帮我大概翻译一下题目与文章还有正确选项和我错选的项，该用什么思路求解？万分感谢。作者: a514116402c 时间: 2011-10-17 22:09
