　　【昨天的题目及解析】
　　
　　In the last half of the nineteenth century "capital" and "labour" were enlarging and perfecting their rival
　　
　　organisations on modern lines. Many an old firm was replaced by a limited liability company with a bureaucracy of salaried
　　
　　managers. The change met the technical requirements of the new age by engaging a large professional element and prevented
　　
　　the decline in efficiency that so commonly spoiled the fortunes of family firms in the second and third generation after
　　
　　the energetic founders. It was moreover a step away from individual initiative, towards collectivism and municipal and
　　
　　state-owned business. The railway companies, though still private business managed for the benefit of shareholders, were
　　
　　very unlike old family business. At the same time the great municipalities went into business to supply lighting, trams and
　　
　　other services to the taxpayers.
　　
　　19世纪后半叶，“资方”和“劳方”按现代方式不断扩大和完善各自相对立的组织。许多旧式公司被责任有限公司所取代，由领薪经理构成
　　
　　其管理机构。这种变革通过聘用大量专业人员来适应新时代的技术要求，并防止了效率的降低，而在过去这种低效率使得许多旧式家族企业
　　
　　在精力充沛的创业者之后的第二、三代手中破产倒闭。而且这也是公司摆脱个体创造，走向集体化和市营、国营迈出的一步。铁路公司，虽
　　
　　然仍是为股东谋利的私有企业，但还是与旧家族企业大不相同了。与此同时，大城市也开始涉足实业界，为纳税人提供照明、电车及其他服
　　
　　务。
　　
　　59. It's true of the old family firms that ________.
　　
　　[A] they were spoiled by the younger generations
　　
　　[B] they failed for lack of individual initiative
　　
　　[C] they lacked efficiency compared with modern companies
　　
　　[D] they could supply adequate services to the taxpayers
　　
　　题型识别：细节题
　　
　　题干定位：根据old family firms可以定位到第一段的若干句关于old family firm 的句子
　　
　　解题思路：典型的细节题解题思路
　　
　　选项分析：用四个选项分别和原文句子比对，同意替换的为正确选项，其他的排除；
　　
　　[A] they were spoiled by the younger generations
　　
　　被年轻一代给毁了；
　　
　　这个选项看上去很符合我的常规的认识：富不过三代，并且用了视觉干扰，这是毕金献早年出题的风格，显得有点小猥琐。
　　
　　原文：that so commonly spoiled the fortunes of family firms in the second and third generation.
　　
　　这里的that指代的是前面的词组：decline in efficiency；因此可以知道毁掉公司的是效率的下降；时间是在第二和第三
　　
　　代，但不是第二和第三代毁掉公司的。
　　
　　（移花接木）
　　
　　[D] they could supply adequate services to the taxpayers
　　
　　能提供足够的服务给纳税人。
　　
　　原文：the great municipalities went into business to supply lighting, trams and other services to the taxpayers.
　　
　　移花接木
　　
　　[B] they failed for lack of individual initiative
　　
　　他们由于缺乏个体的动力因此失败了。
　　
　　原文：It was moreover a step away from individual initiative
　　
　　It= the change
　　
　　The change was moreover a step away from individual initiative.
　　
　　这种变化也是公司摆脱个体创造，走向集体化和市营、国营迈出的一步。
　　
　　说明之前是不缺乏individual initiative的；
　　
　　（ 移花接木）
　　
　　[C] they lacked efficiency compared with modern companies
　　
　　原文： decline in efficiency so commonly spoiled the fortunes of family firms.
　　
　　缺乏效率毁掉了他们，被现代公司所取代，所以现代公司效率更高！完美的同意替换；从有到无也是一种比较；

　　Most real-life personal assistants do not need to worry about their jobs being threatened by technology—at least yet. Digital assistants serve as a hands-free way to search for information but struggle to complete actions that require more complex steps, such as booking flights. Your correspondent spent several days “employing” a variety of available digital assistants. Although they can find nearby restaurants and make a booking through OpenTable, they do not yet know her well enough or have the judgment  to tell her which is the “best” Italian food. Echo, Amazon’s product, can recite the definition of “personal assistant” without hesitation, but had no idea how to respond when your correspondent asked whether Echo was her personal assistant.
　　
　　Why it is not necessary  to worry about job replacement by technology?
　　
　　(A) The digital assistants can not finish information searching for booking flights.
　　
　　(B) The digital assistants are confused about the definition of the personal assistant.
　　
　　(C) The digital assistants are lost in the judgment of their Personal identities.
　　
　　(D) The digital assistants  can not cooperate with your correspondents appropriately.
