e them by looking at bribery prosecutions under America’s Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). It argues that since prosecutors do not consume a company’s products as part of their investigations, they could be influenced only by the halo effect.The study found that, among prosecuted firms, those with the most comprehensive CSR programms tended to get more lenient penalties,. Their analysisruledoutthepossibilitythatitwasfirm’sPoliticalinfluence,ratherthantheirCSR stand, that accounted for the leniency: Companies that contributed more to political campaigns did not receive lower fines.In all, the study concludes that whereas prosecutors should only evaluate a case based on its merits, they do seem to be influenced by a company’s record in CSR. “We estimate that either eliminating a substantial labour-rights concern , such as child labour, or increasing corporate giving byabout20% results in fines that generally are 40% lower than the typical punishment for bribing foreign officials”, says one researcher. Researchers admit that their study does not answer the question of how much businesses ought to spend on CSR. Nor does it reveal how much companies are banking on the halo effect, rather than the other possible benefits, when they decide their do-gooding policies. But at least they have demonstrated that when companies get into trouble with the law, evidence of good character can win them less costly punishment.31.The author views Milton Friedman’s statement about CSR with【A】tolerance.【B】skepticism.【C】uncertainty.【D】approval.32.According to Paragraph 2,CSR helps a company by【A】winning trust from consumers.【B】guarding it against malpractices.【C】protecting it from being defamed.【D】raising the quality of its products.33.Theexpression“morelenient”(line2,para.4)isclosestinmeaningto【A】moreeffective【B】lesscontroversial【C】lesssevere【D】morelasting34.Whenprosecutorsevaluateacase,acompany’sCSRregard【A】hasanimpactontheirdecision【B】comesacrossasreliableevidence【C】increasesthechanceofbeingpenalized【D】constitutespartoftheinvestigation35.Which of the following is trueof CSR, according to the last paragraph?【A】 Its negative effects on businesses are often overlooked.【B】 The necessary amount of companies’ spending on it is unknown.【C】Companies’ financial capacity for it has been overestimated.【D】 It has brought much benefit to the banking industry.Text4TherewilleventuallycomeadaywhenTheNewYorkTimesceasestopublishstoriesonnewsprint.Exactlywhenthatdaywillbeisamatterofdebate.“Sometimeinthefuture”,thepaper’spublishersaidbackin2010.Nostalgiaforinkonpaperandtherustleofpagesaside,there’splentyofincentivetoditchprint.Theinfrastructurerequiredtomakeaphysicalnewspaper—printingpresses,deliverytrucks—isn’tjustexpensive;it’sexcessiveatatimewhenonline-onlycompetitorsdon’thavethesamesetoffinancialconstraints.Readersaremigratingawayfromprintaway.Andthoughprintadsalesstilldwarftheironlineandmobilecounterparts,revenuefromprintisstilldeclining.Overheadmaybehighandcirculationlower,butrushingtoeliminateitsprinteditionwouldbeamistake,saysBuzzFeedCEOJoahPeretti.PerettisaystheTimesshouldn’twastetimegettingoutoftheprintbusiness,butonlyiftheygoaboutdoingittherightway.”Fightingoutawaytoacceleratethattransitionwouldmakesenseofthem,”hesaid,“butifyoudiscontinueit,you’regoingtohaveyourmostloyalcustomersreallyupsetwithyou.”Sometimesthat’sworthmakingachangeanyway.Perettigivestheexampleseenasablunder,”hesaid.Themoveturnedouttobeforesighted.AndifPerettiwouldraisepricesandmakeitintomoreofalegacyproduct.”Themostloyalcustomerswouldstillgettheproducttheyfavor,theideagoes,andthey’dfeelliketheywerehelpingsustainthequalityofsomethingtheybelievein.“Soifyou’reoverpayingforprint,youcouldfeellikeyouwerehelping,”Perettisaid.“Thenincreaseitatahigherrateeachyearandessentiallytrytogenerateadditionalrevenue.”Inotherwords,ifyou’regoingtomakeaprintproduct,makeitforthepeoplewhoarealreadyobsessedwithit.WhichwaybewhattheTimesisdoingalready.Gettingtheprinteditionsevendaysaweekcosts$500ayear—morethantwiceasmuchasadigital-onlysubscription.“It’sareallyhardthingtodoandit’satremendousluxurythatBuzzFeeddoesn’thavealegacybusiness,”Perettiremarked.“Butwe’regoingtohavequestionslikethatwherewehavethingswe’redoingthatdon’tmakesensewhenthemarketchangesandtheworldchanges.Inthosesituations,it’sbettertobemoreaggressivethanlessaggressive.”36.TheNewYorkTimesisconsideringendingitsprinteditionpartlydueto[A]thepressurefromitsinvestors.[B]thecomplaintsfromitsreaders.[C]thehighcostofoperation.[D]theincreasingonlineadsales.37.Perettisuggeststhat,infaceofthepresentsituation,theTimesshould[A]makestrategicadjustments[B]endtheprinteditionforgood.[C]seeknewsourcesofreadership.[D]aimforefficientmanagement.38.ItcanbeinferredformParagraphs5and6thata“legacyproduct”[A]willhavethecostofprintingreduced.[B]ismeantforthemostloyalcustomers.[C]helpsrestorethegloryofformertimes.[D]expandsthepopularityofthepaper.39.Perettibelievesthat,inachangingworld,[A]traditionalluxuriescanstayunaffected.[B]aggressivenessbettermeetsch
