Yet another explanation blames the federal budget deficit: if it were lower, interest rate would be lower too, thereby increasing investment in the development of new technologies, which would spur productivity growth in the service sector. There is, however, no dearth of technological resources, rather, managers in the service sector fail to take advantage of widely available skills and machines. High productivity growth levels attained by leading edge service companies indicate that service sector managers who wisely implement available technology and choose skillful workers can significantly improve their companies’ productivity. The culprits for service-sector productivity stagnation are the forces-such as corporate takeovers and unnecessary governmental regulation-that distract managers from the task of making optimal use of available resources.
T-3-Q33
Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the budget deficit explanation for the discrepancy mentioned in line 27?
A. Research shows that the federal budget deficit has traditionally caused service companies to invest less money in research and development of new technologies.
B. New technologies have been shown to play a significant role in companies that have been able to increase their service productivity.
C. In both service sector and manufacturing, productivity improvements are concentrated in gains in quality.
D. The service sector typically requires larger investments in new technology in order to maintain productivity growth than dose manufacturing
E. High interest rates tend to slow the growth of manufacturing productivity as much as they slow the growth of service-sector productivity in the United States.
T-3-Q34
The passage states which of the following about the effect of foreign competition on the American manufacturing sector since the 1970’s?
A. It has often been exaggerated.
B. It has not been a direct cause of job loss.
C. It has in large part been responsible for the subsequent slowing of productivity growth.
D. It has slowed growth in the demand for manufactured goods in the United States.
E. It has been responsible for the majority of American jobs lost in manufacturing.
T-3-Q35
It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following was true of the United States manufacturing sector in the years immediately prior to 1980?
A. It was performing relatively poorly.
B. It was in a position of world prominence.
C. It was increasing its productivity at an annual rate of 3 percent.
D. It was increasing its productivity at an annual rate of 1 percent.
E. Its level of productivity was higher than afterward.
T-3-Q36
The author of the passage would be most likely to agree with which of the following statements about productivity improvements in United States service companies?
A. Such improvements would be largely attributable to efficiencies resulting from corporate takeovers.
B.Such improvements would depend more on wise implementation of technology than on managers’ choice of skilled workers.
C.Such improvements would be more easily accomplished if there were fewer governmental regulations of the service sector.
D.Such improvements would require companies to invest heavily in the development of new technologies.
E. Such improvements would be attributable primarily to companies’ facing global competitive pressure.

好像是GWD原題or OG上的，我有印象，講的是 group interview.大家可以找一下?？碱}分別是1.這篇文章第一段與后兩段的關(guān)系?2，group interview 產(chǎn)生的影響是?3，一道infer題，定位在第二段，實(shí)在想不起來了抱歉。。
注：我在OG和GWD上沒有找到，這里貼的是考古的內(nèi)容，大家如果能找到原文請聯(lián)系我，謝謝

P1,說group interview有什么好處啦，可以降低訓(xùn)練interviewer的成本，可以看被interview的人在有競爭對手時的反應(yīng)，以及看他在壓力下的表現(xiàn)，也可以一次比較很多人，找出最適合的candidate...等等，這些好處使得越來越多公司選擇group interview, regardless of "valid interview practice"，然后轉(zhuǎn)折說還是有壞處的;(此處有主題題)。
