在GMAT的Issue題庫中,兩次出現了同一個單詞“enterprise”:
“In any enterprise, the process of making or doing something is ultimately more important than the final product。”
“The best strategy for managing a business, or any enterprise, is to find the most capable people and give them as much authority as possible。”
而這兩道題中的“enterprise”不應都簡單理解爲“企業”。
實際上,根據 Webster 的.對“enterprise”釋義:
1: a project or undertaking that is especially difficult, complicated, or risky
2: readiness to engage in daring action: INITIATIVE
3 a: a unit of economic organization or activity; especially: a business organization
b: a systematic purposeful activity
