参考答案A
解析:该题为主旨题。综观全文,主要论述了一种新兴行业,即服务加速者,这些人帮助人们排队办理复杂而耗费时间的手续,因此只有A项“驯服队列”符合文意;B项提到“新兴行业之争论”,而本文只论述了一种具体的新兴行业,而不是对所有新兴行业进行评价;文章并没有集中论述人们一起等待,而是论述一种新兴行业的出现使一些人免去了排队等待之苦;虽然本文提到了政府办事手续繁琐,但是这只是为引出服务加速者做铺垫,重点在于后者,而并没有集中论述官僚主义的缺点。

A continuing phenomenon in business education is the emphasis on ethics. The American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business ( AACSB ) accreditation standards emphasize the need for an ethical awareness along with an understanding of "influence of political, social,legal and reg-ulatory,environmental, and technological issues..." 61 )One of the difficult ethical challenges it wants addressed concerns "inclusiveness," which we have interpreted to mean a "large umbrella" approach, in, for example, employee concerns. To this end, matters such as .sexual preference are dealt with in a case involving a supervisor.62 ) Possibly the greatest ethical idea that could build bridges in an increasingly fragmented society is the idea that empirical evidence must be sought and used to bring an agreement in controversial public issues.
Clearly the greatest impact upon the business enterprise evidencing external political and social environments occurs with respect to law. Law is the way in which society and the political process translating into concrete form the forces shaping the business environment. Perhaps the most impor-tant development is the recognition that positive law has become the ethic of our time.63 ) A key reason for this is the highly competitive nature of the business environment, where international competitors are threatening the very existence of the domestic U. S. businesses;this competition forces U. S. businesses to take a "bare bones," "do just what the law requires and no more" approach to ethics. Actually, the U. S. legal system is for more than a"bare bones" to legal rights.
64)In fact,it could persuasively be argued that law in this nature has crept into the realm of natural law and norms formerly described by private decision makers are now decreed by legislative commands. It is tree that ethics involves doing the "right" thing, the just thing, the morally correct thing;however, positive law is now commanding us to "do the right thing. " Given the need to keep costs under control, most U. S. businesses give a sigh of relief and say," This is enough ethics for me ;thanks,"if they can simply comply with the pervasive positive law. These businesses point out that their foreign competitors do not have the extensive--and expensive--protective labor laws, the Clean Water Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, and a host of other laws.65 ) These laws have praiseworthy goals; nonetheless, they make competing with businesses in other countries without such laws difficult,if not impossible, particularly when costs are taken into account.
