Reading Comprehension (4×5=20)Most of us work in organizations that are hierarchical, vertical and functionally defined. The organization chart for the typical company resembles a pyramid and provides a clear view of where everyone fits in relation to eachother and will also normally reflect reporting relationships. In essence, the conventional organization structure is little changed since the armies of the Roman Empire developed the precursor of the pyramid organization.While there can be no doubting that this organizational model has served uswell in the past, there are now serious questions to be asked about itsappropriateness for the changed conditions that confront us today. Of the many changes that have taken place in the marketing environment, perhaps the biggestis the focus upon “speed”. Because of shortening product life cycles, time to market becomes ever more critical. Similarly, the dramatic growth ofjust-in-time( JIT) practices in manufacturing means that those companies wishing to supply into that environment have to develop systems capable of responding rapidly and flexibly to customers’ delivery requirements. Indeed, thesame is true in almost every market today as organizations seek to reduce their inventories and hence a critical requirement of a supplier is that they are capableof rapid response.The challenge to every business is to become a responsive organization. The organization must respond to changes in the market with products and servicesthat provide innovative solutions to customers’ problems; it must respond to volatile demands and it must be able to provide high levels of flexibility in delivery.What will be the distinguishing features of the responsive organization? Onething is certain: it will not resemble today’s functionally focused business.Choose the best answer according to the passage:1.The reporting relations reflected in the organization chart indicates thatthe traditional organization is not ( )A. hierarchicalB.verticalC. functionally definedD. customer-oriented2. Which of the following is wrong? ( )A. The conventional organization structure has to be changedB. The conventional organization structure has been changedC. The conventional organization structure served us well in the pastD. Situations changed and the conventional organization structure shouldbe adjusted.3. Which is the greatest change that market has experienced? ( )A. Customer’s preference.B.Expectation for speed.C. Increased supplies.D. Volatile demands.4. Organizations today have to reduce the time of sending a product tomarket substantially mainly because ( )A. customers change taste often.B. transport conditions improved greatly.C. there are many competitors in the market who sell similar products.D. the span from the time a product is developed until the time the productfalls into disuse is greatly decreased.5. Which of the following is NOT the feature of a responsive organization?( )A.customer-based.B.function-based.rmation-based.D.Relationship-based。
