29、 Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center. 30 By the early 1950s, some business people began to recognize that efficient production and extensive promotion did not guarantee that customers would buy products. These businesses, and many others

30、, found that they must first determine what customers want and then produce it, rather than make products and try to change customers needs to fit what is expected. As more organizations realized the importance of knowing customers needs, U. S. businesses entered the marketing era, one of market or

31、customer orientations(取向 , 方向 ). Orientation toward customer satisfaction has resulted in increased concern about ethics and social responsibility and brought about an expansion into global markets. Management at many organizations has realized that we are in the “Total Quality Era“, in which improv

32、ed product quality, and customer focus are major components of successful domestic and global operations. Because the marketing concept affects many parts of a businesss operations, and not just marketing, an organizations top management must adopt it wholeheartedly. High-level executives must incor

33、porate the market orientation into their management philosophies so completely that customers become the organizations most important concern. Managements second major task is to restructure the organization. To satisfy customers objectives as well as its own, a company must coordinate all activitie

34、s. To achieve this, the internal operations and overall objectives of one or more departments may need restructuring. If the head of the marketing unit is not a member of the organizations top-level management, he or she should be. Some departments may have to be abolished and new ones created. Impl

35、ementing(实施， 执行 )the marketing concept demands the support not only of top management, but also of managers and staff at all levels. The transformation to an organization with a market orientation takes time. In the short run, a firm may experience the need to retain employees, financial constraints

36、, limits on technology, capital equipment limitations, and prohibitive union work rules. Even when an information system is established and the company reorganized, the firms new marketing approach may not work perfectly. First, a firms ability to satisfy customers needs for a particular product is

37、limited. In a mass production economy, most business organizations cannot tailor products to fit the exact needs of each customer. Second, a company may be unable to learn what customers want, and when it does correctly identify customers needs, it often has a hard time developing a product that sat

38、isfies those needs. Third, by striving to satisfy one segment(部分，部门 )of society, a firm sometimes dissatisfies other segments. Producers of tobacco currently face this situation. Fourth, a company may have trouble maintaining employee morale during any restructuring to coordinate the activities of v

39、arious departments. 31 By the early 1950s, business people began to realize_. （ A） the importance of efficient production （ B） the necessity of extensive promotion （ C） the need to try to change customers needs （ D） the significance of knowing customers needs 32 An organizations most important conce

40、rn should be_. （ A） customers needs （ B） management philosophy （ C） business operations （ D） market share 33 In restructuring the organization, the top-level management should_. （ A） include the head of the marketing department （ B） support wholeheartedly the implementation of the marketing concept

41、（ C） coordinate activities of all departments to ensure market orientation （ D） all of the above 34 Which of the following statements is NOT true? （ A） To restructure the organization may need a long time. （ B） To transform the organization into one with market orientation may entail some temporary

42、troubles. （ C） The restructuring of an organization may be done without the support of all managers. （ D） The restructuring of an organization may destroy employee morale. 35 A firms new marketing approach may not work perfectly because of_. （ A） lack of an information system （ B） limited ability to

43、 satisfy customers needs （ C） difficulty in developing tailored products （ D） all of the above 35 The concept of the family is difficult to define. Part of the difficulty is that in everyday language, the term family is used to describe a number of relationships. These range from the biological, nuc

44、lear family of mother, father, and child and siblings, to the more extended family which includes several generations of blood relatives or relatives through marriage, to close and intimate friends, even to humankind, or the “family of man. “ The wide variation in everyday usage is less apparent in

45、formal definitions, but even here there is a lack of consensus. Formal definitions do not always fit informal definitions. The U. S. Bureau of the Census, which collects information used by social scientists, defines family as “a group of two or more person related by blood, marriage, or adoption an

46、d residing together in a household. “ A household is comprised of “all persons who occupy a housing unit, that is, a house, an apartment, or other group of rooms, or a single room that constitutes separate living quarters. “ This definition considers the family in terms of only its structure and leg

47、al status, not the qualities of the relationship or its functions or activities. The Census Bureau thus would accept as a family two legally related people who hated each other and were just living together for their mutual economic advantage. Their definition also includes sexual and nonsexual rela

48、tions; married women and men living together in sexual unions are families, but so are brothers and sisters living together in nonsexual unions. Many social scientists often distinguish between the family of origin and the family of procreation(生殖，生产 ). Most of us are simultaneously members of two f

49、amilies: the family of origin, into which we are born and of which we are always considered a member, even if we leave it, and the family of procreation, which we join as adults for the purpose of procreation and rearing children. Some social scientists also distinguish marriage from family and see the two as independent of one another. They argue that the family can exist regardless of whether the co
