问题 Text 3 Employees are often said to be a company's biggest resource.It is equally true that they are its biggest liability.Scarcely a week goes by without a company falling victim to employees-turned-cnemies-or-embarrassments.The most familiar type of enemy within is the fraudster.The Economist Intelligence Unit conducts a regular poll of senior executives on the subject of fraud committed by insiders.Two year ago the poll discovered that about 70%of companies had suffered from at least one instance of fraud,up from 61%in the previous survey.Fraud is often petty.But fraud can also be more harmful:think of former employees setting up rivals using stolen technology and purloined client lists.Even more dangerous is the vandal.Thieves at least have a rational motive.Vandals are driven by a desire for revenge that can know no limit.A company that specialises in corporate investigation gives a detailed account of the story of a British manufacturing company that was under restructuring.A member of the infonnation technology department discovered that his name was on the list of people whose services would no longer be required.He built a"backdoor"into the company's IT system from his home computer and set about causing damage.What can companies do to reduce the threat from these wolves in sheep's clothing?A lot depends on which particular sorts ofwolves you are dealing with.Yet three principles are always worth bearing in mind.The first is that firms need to focus on the people who have the greatest capacity to do harm-those who control the money and information.The more complicated companies become,the harder it is to identify where power really lies.But one thing is clear.The more dependent on information firms get,the more IT specialists can compromise the whole business.The least companies can do is to keep a careful watch on the IT department.The second is that the human touch is still invaluable.Companies can certainly strengthen their hand by installing software that can identify unusual behaviour or monitor e-mail,or by employing professionals to double-check the accounts.The best way to avoid these problems is to treat our employees with respect.The biggest problem with trying to do more with less is that you can end up tuming your biggest resources into your biggest liabilities.Companies should bear in mind that_____A.people with the greatest capacity should control the moneyB.it's better to compromise with IT departmentC.IT specialists should be carefully watchedD.power should be identified to different departments

选项 A.people with the greatest capacity should control the money
B.it's better to compromise with IT department
C.IT specialists should be carefully watched
D.power should be identified to different departments

答案 C

解析事实细节题。根据定位词定位到第五段最后一句。该句提到keep a careful watch on the IT department（仔细留意IT部门）．故C项“应当小心防范IT专家”为正确选项。【干扰排除】A项，根据原文第五段第二句the peopleWho have the greatest capacity to do harm-those who control the money and informaiion（那些最有能力损害企业利益的员工，也就是那些掌握财务和信息的人），而并非让他们掌控财政．A项可排除；B项“最好与IT部门妥协”，原文第五段第五句提到the more IT specialists can compromise the whole business（IT专家对整个企业造成的危害就越大），此处compromise是“危害”的意思；D项，原文第五段第三句说The more complicated companies become，the harder it is to identify where power really lies（企业架构越复杂，查明权力掌握在谁手中就越困难）．并不是说权力应当分到不同的部门。
