Fearing that the use of titles indicating position in the corporation tends to make the corporate hierarchy rigid by inhibiting communication, some corporations shun the use of executive titles. A title, however, can facilitate an executive's dealings with external businesses since it encourages outsiders to treat the executive with respect. The obvious compromise is for these executives to use their titles externally but not within their corporations.
Which of the following, if true, provides the most support for the compromise suggested above?
Only small corporations can preserve an atmosphere of mutual respect and high regard without having a rigid corporate hierarchy.
Referring to an executive by using a title can encourage both those outside the organization and inside the organization to treat the executive with respect.
Even if it is widely known within a corporation that the corporation's executives use executive titles outside their organizations, this knowledge does not by itself inhibit communication within the corporation.
A rigid corporate hierarchy can promote efficiency within an organization as well as provide access to the corporation for those outside the organization.
Although many corporate executives disapprove of rigid hierarchies on the grounds that they inhibit communication, the vast majority of executives have no qualms about using titles both internally and externally.
情景：在公司内部和外部用职称的效果是不同的。在内部用职称会影响员工之间的交流，如果不用职称的话，在外部又不会受到尊重。因此，可以在内部不用职称而在外部用职称。
推理：问题让我们评估方案，所以推理文段肯定是方案推理，推理结构为：
目标：即保障员工的交流又让外人敬重（这个目标原文没有直接说，但是很容易推测出来）
方案：Use their titles externally but not within their corporations
选题方式：方案推理有三个评估方向，简而言之，即，答案选项一定和方案的内容相关。
选项分析：
A选项：只有小公司可以在没有严格的等级制度的情况下保证相互尊重的气氛。本选项没有讨论方案的调和策略，可以排除。
B选项：给一个员工职称让员工不论在公司内还是在公司外都可以获得尊重。本选项没有讨论方案的调和策略，可以排除。
C选项：Correct. 就算在公司内的众人知道在公司外的员工用的职称，那也不会影响众人的在公司内的交流情况。如果外部名称会影响内部的话，则显然该方案不可能达成目标。本选项将这个削弱方向取非，可以加强推理文段，属于CQ1：方案的可行性问题。
D选项：一个严格的等级制度可以增加企业的效率并且给其他公司了解自己提供通道。本选项描述的是严格登记制度带来的优点，而和方案没有联系，可以排除。
E选项：虽然许多执行者认为等级制度影响了互相之间的交流，但是他们并没有对于在内外都用职称的不安。本选项描述的依然是等级制度的优劣和问题，没有提到方案，不能成为答案。
rigid
死板的
评估方案：在公司外部使用titles，在内部不使用titles。
choice c, 即便知道在公司外部使用titles也不会影响内部之间的交流。correct
