第40题题干可以划定位词的有Google和General Electric。这道题考察“是非考点”，即前者有没有采用后者的flexibility。

定位

D New research suggests that this obsession with efficiency is misguided. The problem is not necessarily the management theories or strategies we use to organise our work; it's the basic assumptions we hold in approaching how we work. Here it’s the assumption that order is a necessary condition for productivity. This assumption has also fostered the idea that disorder must be detrimental to organisational productivity. The result is that businesses and people spend time and money organising themselves for the sake of organising, rather than actually looking at the end goal and usefulness of such an effort.

F In fact, research shows that, when innovating, the best approach is to create an environment devoid of structure and hierarchy and enable everyone involved to engage as one organic group. These environments can lead to new solutions that, under conventionally structured environments (filled with bottlenecks in terms of information flow, power structures, rules, and routines) would never be reached.

G In recent times companies have slowly started to embrace this disorganisation. Many of them embrace it in terms of perception (embracing the idea of disorder, as opposed to fearing it) and in terms of process (putting mechanisms in place to reduce structure).

…

In similar fashion, the former chairman of General Electric embraced disorganisation, putting forward the idea of the ’boundaryless‘ organisation. Again, it involves breaking down the barriers between different parts of a company and encouraging virtual collaboration and flexible working. Google and a number of other tech companies have embraced (at least in part) these kinds of flexible structures, facilitated by technology and strong company values which glue people together.

答案

上文D段最后一句出现了定位词businesses and people，这句中的organising themselves对应题干中的aim at order，这句中的rather than对应题干中的without，这句中的looking at the end goal and usefulness of such an effort对应题干中的its value，所以第38题答案是TRUE。

上文F段第 一句中出现了定位词innovating， 这句中的best approach对应题干中的most successful， 这句中的engage as one organic group【一个有机整体】与题干中的people involved have distinct roles【相关人士有不同的角色】是矛盾的，所以第39题答案是FALSE。

上文G段第三小段第 一句出现了定位词General Electric，这段最后一句出现了定位词Google，但这段中没有跟题干中的success和inspired 对应的信息，所以第40题答案是NOT GIVEN。
