1.英译汉
The new team’s task is to keep the revitalization scheme on course, especially overseas, where some American brands are said to face political hostility from consumers. This is a big challenge. Is an in-house succession the best way to deal with it? Mr. Skinner and Mr. Roberts are both company veterans, having joined in the 1970s. Some recent academic studies find that the planned succession of a new boss from within, such as Mr. Bell and now Mr. Roberts, produces better results than looking hastily outside for one. McDonald’s smooth handling of its misfortunes at the top certainly seems to prove the point.
