问题     The main idea of these business school academies is appealing. In a word where companies must adapt to new technologies and source of competition, it is much harder than it used to be to offer good employees job security and an opportunity to climb the corporate ladder. Yet it is also more necessary than ever for employees to invest in better skills and sparkle with bright ideas. How can firms get the most out of people if they can no longer offer them protection and promotion?
    Many bosses would love to have an answer. Sumantrra Ghoshal of the London Business School and Christopher Bartlett of the Harvard Business School think they have one: "Employability". If managers offer the fight kinds of training and guidance, and change their attitude towards their underlings(下属), they will be able to reassure their employees that they will always have the skills and experience to find a good job—even if it is with a different company.
    Unfortunately, they promise more than they deliver. Their thoughts on what an ideal organization should accomplish are hard to quarrel with: encourage people to be creative, make sure the gains from creativity are shared with the pains of the business that earl make the most of them, keep the organization  from getting stale(陈旧的)and so forth. The real disappointment comes when they attempt to show how firms might actually create such an environment. At its nub (要点)is the notion that companies can attain their elusive goals by changing their implicit contract with individual workers, and treating them as a source of value rather than a part in a machine.
    The authors offer a few inspiring example of companies—they include Motorola, 3M and ABB— that have managed to go some way towards creating such organizations. But they offer little useful guidance on how to go about it, and leave the biggest questions unanswered. How do you continuously train people, without diverting them from their everyday job of making the business more profitable? How do you train people to be successful elsewhere while still encouraging them to make big commitments to your own firm? How do you get your newly liberated employees to spend their time on ideas that create value, and not simply on those they enjoy? Most of their, answers are platitudinous (平常的), and when they are not they are unconvincing.
According to Christopher Bartlett ______ will improve "employability".

选项 A、ability to lay out one’s talents to employers
B、skills and knowledge accnmulated from school education
C、training opportunity and guidance offered by company
D、being creative and ready to share collective wisdom

答案C

解析 见文中第二段employability后面的一句解释,在上下文中特指通过公司培养和指导,来提高雇员的水平。不是A获取职位的能力,或B在学校中获取的知识和技能,D有创造性,分享集体的智慧可能提高个人的受雇能力,但不是这里作者探讨的问题,故不能选为答案。
