单选题Besides active foreign enterprises and a 1 number of private employers, a consequential new development was the development of employment in state-owned enterprises (Guanying or Guanshang). Started by some 2 Qing officials, the Yangwupai, in the late nineteenth century, sizable state-owned enterprises developed primarily 3 enhancing China"s national defense. Famous industrial giants of today"s China such as the shipyards in Shanghai and heavy industries in cities like Wuhan, Nanjing, and Chongqing were built by the Qing or the Republic government. Some of them later began to 4 considerable private investments. After World War Ⅱ, this type of state-owned employment became very important. Labor in those enterprises consisted basically 5 two tiers: a largely market-oriented allocation of blue-collar and some white-collar workers, and a mostly state allocation of most of the white-collar workers including managerial and technical personnel. The latter was a distorted labor market that featured strong 6 considerations in allocating and managing labor. Personal and kinship connections, the so-called "petticoat influence", and political 7 were the norm for this type of labor allocation pattern. In a way, it was midway between a rather crude market-oriented labor allocation pattern and the centuries—old, warm, family-based traditional labor allocation. It covered a very small but important portion of the Chinese labor force, and thus 8 our attention. Later, it apparently provided the historical precedent 9 the PRC government to allocate its administrative and technical cadres, even its entire industrial labor force, 10 state employees.

单选题The challenge that newspapers faced from the website is

单选题There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degrees of health and wealth and the other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes miserable. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds. The people who are to be happy fix their attention on the conveniences of things, the pleasant parts of conversation, the well-prepared dishes, the goodness of the wines, and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the contrary things. Therefore, they are continually discontented. By their remarks, they sour the pleasures of society, offend many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind were founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The tendency to criticize and be disgusted is perhaps taken up originally by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it are convinced of its bad effects on their interests and tastes, I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit. Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious consequences in life, since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others, nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect, and scarcely that. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at obtaining some advantage in rank or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public disapproval, no one will defend or excuse them. These people should change this bad habit. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them.
