问题    Those who work in the Netherlands often feel that a lot of time is wasted in discussions that lead to nothing. There are often meetings with documents, an agenda, and a chairman. All those present will have their say, after which their remarks are discussed.
   He who decides to skip a meeting though he has nothing more urgent to attend to, will find it unwise. The interacting that takes place during a meeting is very important for the general process. He who does not appear is saying that he does not think the subject is sufficiently important, or that he apparently does not take his colleagues seriously. Furthermore, he might miss some of the essential information that may become evident during the meeting. Those who are present show an interest in the problems of their colleagues. They supply questions, rather than commands, and thus declare themselves "co-responsible". The Dutch, in their final conclusions, like to use such metaphors as "We are all in one line" or "Our noses are pointing in the same direction again".
   If you present a decision, you will find that everyone has something to say about it and has questions to ask. This is why the Dutch will not be quick to present something as the only correct solution. The advantage to this approach is that such a meeting will often lead to genuine suggestions for improvement on certain aspects of a plan. As a result, the plan will be a joint approach.
   This time-consuming and seemingly useless process helps colleagues become a team. The amount of time that is lost around the table is more than what made up for inefficiency, once everyone goes back to work. Statistics show Dutch employees are among the world leaders when it comes to work productivity.
What does the last paragraph tell us?
选项 A、Many leaders in the world are Dutch.
B、Dutch employees are highly productive.
C、Dutch companies are the most successful in the world.
D、Dutch employees work hardest in the world.
答案B
解析 细节题。根据最后一段可知，这个耗时且看似无用的过程有助于同事们形成一个团队，荷兰员工在工作效率方面属于世界领先者，与选项B(荷兰员工很高效)表述一致。选项A(世界上的许多领导者都是荷兰人)文中未提及。选项C(荷兰公司是世界上最成功的)和选项D(荷兰员工是世界上工作最努力的)都无法从文中推断出来。故答案为B。
