单选题Federal efforts to aid minority businesses began in the 1960s、when the Small Business Administration(SBA) began making federally guaranteed loans and government sponsored management and technical assistance available to minority business enterprises．While this program enabled many minority entrepreneurs to form new businesses，the results were disappointing，since managerial inexperience，unfavorable locations，and capital shortages led to high failure rates．Even 1 5 years after the program was implemented，minority business receipts were not quite two percent of the national economy’s total receipts． Recently federal policymakers have adopted an approach intended to accelerate development of the minority business sector by moving away from directly aiding small minority enterprises and toward supporting large，growth oriented minority firms through intermediary companies．In this approach，large corporations participate in the development of successful and stable minority businesses by making use of government-sponsored venture capital．The capital is used by a participating company to establish a Minority Enterprise Small Businesses that have potential to become future suppliers of customers of the sponsoring company． MESBIC’s are the result of the belief that providing established firms with easier access to relevant management techniques and more job-specific experience，as well as substantial amounts of capital，gives those firms a greater opportunity to develop sound business foundations than does simply making general management experience and small amounts of capital available．Further。since potential markets for the minority businesses already exist through the sponsoring companies，the minority businesses face considerably less risk in terms of location and market fluctuation．Following early financial and operating problems，sponsoring corporations began to capitalize MESBIC’s far above the legal minimum of $500000 in order to generate sufficient income and to sustain the quality of management needed．MESBIC’s are now emerging as increasingly important financing sources for minority enterprises． Ironically，MESBIC staffs，which usually consist of Hispanic and Black professionals，tend to approach investments in minority firms more pragmatically than do many MESBIC directors，who are usually senior managers from sponsoring corporations．The latter often still think mainly in terms of the “social responsibility approach”and thus seem to prefer deals that are riskier and less attractive than normal investment criteria would warrant．Such differences in viewpoint have produced uneasiness among many minority staff members，who feel that minority entrepreneurs and businesses should be judged by established business considerations．These staff members believe their point of view is closer to the original philosophy of MESBIC’s and they are concerned that，unless a more prudent course is followed，MESBIC directors may revert to policies likely to recreate the disappointing results of the original SBA approach．

单选题The police fired tear gas and arrested more than 5000 passively resisting protestors Friday in an attempt to break up the largest antinuclear demonstration ever staged in the United States. More than 135000 demonstrators confronted the police on the construction site of a 1,000-megawatt nuclear power plant scheduled to provide power to most of southern New Hampshire. Organizers of the huge demonstration said that the protest was continuing despite the police actions. More demonstrators were arriving to keep up the pressure on state authorities to cancel the project. The demonstrator had charged that the project was unsafe in the densely populated area, would create thermal pollution in the bay, and had no acceptable means for disposing of its radioactive wasters. The demonstrations would go on until the jails and the courts were so overloaded that the state judicial system would collapse. Governor Stanforth Thumper insisted that there would be no reconsideration of the power project and no delay in its construction set for completion in three years. "This project will begin on time and the people of this state will begin to receive its benefits on schedule. Those who break the law in misguided attempts to sabotage the project will be dealt with according to the law," he said. And the police called in reinforcements from all over the state to handle the disturbances. The protests began before dawn Friday when several thousand demonstrators broke through the police lines around the cordoned-off construction site. They carried placards that read "No Nukes is Good Nukes," "Sunpower, Not Nuclear Power," and "Stop Private Profits from Public Peril. " They defied police order to move from the area. Tear gas canisters fired by the police failed to dislodge the protestors who had been prepared with their own gas masks or facecloths. Finally the gas-masked and helmeted police charged into the crowd to drag off the demonstrators one by one. The protestors did not resist the police, but refused to walk away under their own power. Those arrested would be charged with unlawful assembly, trespassing, and disturbing the peace.

单选题The rise of multinational corporations, global marketing, new communications technologies, and shrinking cultural differences have led to an unparalleled increase in global public relations or PR. Surprisingly, since modern PR was largely an American invention, the US leadership in public relations is being threatened by PR efforts in other countries. Ten years ago, for example, the world"s top five public relations agencies were American-owned. In 1991, only one was. The British in particular are becoming more sophisticated and creative. A recent survey found that more than half of all British companies include PR as part of their corporate planning activities, compared to about one-third of US companies. It may not be long before London replaces New York as the capital of PR. Why is America lagging behind in the global PR race? Firstly, Americans as a whole tend to be fairly provincial and take more of an interest in local affairs. Knowledge of world geography, for example, has never been strong in this country. Secondly, American lag behind their European and Asian counterparts in knowing a second language. Less than 5 percent of Burson-Marshall"s US employees know two languages. Ogilvy and Mather has about the same percentage. Conversely, some European firms have half or more of their employees fluent in a second language. Finally, people involved in PR abroad tend to keep a closer eye on international affairs. In the financial PR area, for instance, most Americans read the Wall Street Journal . Overseas, their counterparts read the Journal as well as the Financial Times of London and The Economist , publications not often read in this country. Perhaps the PR industry might take a lesson from Ted Turner of CNN (Cable News Network). Turner recently announced that the word "foreign" would no longer be used on CNN news broadcasts. According to Turner, global communications have made the nations of the world so interdependent that there is no longer any such thing as foreign.
