问题     If you are going to be a straight talker, you have to believe that it’s a virtue, and that it’s a quality you want to have.
    If you have an opinion and you just state it, it allows the other person to either try to challenge your opinion, to agree with you, or to disagree—they have action they can take. If you are quiet, people think you agree. How can you then further the conversation when you are at different points and it’s not really exposed? Agreeing is easy. Disagreeing takes more guts.
    Several years back, when I was the CEO at a company, there was a very senior woman who was very smart and well spoken, but she did not wear appropriate clothes. It was distracting and she was not being taken seriously. I said to her manager, who was male, "You need to tell her. " He said, "Oh, no way. "
    So I called her in and directly stated what I thought was happening, " You’ re not getting the respect you deserve. " I said, "Go to the store and get a personal shopper. Just say, ’ I am a senior businessperson and need help in dressing formally. ’ " She came back, and she was completely a different person. She said she felt really good. And currency went way up.
    Early in my business career, if people asked me a question, I’d try to answer it honestly. And that was rewarded. I had managers who wanted me around because I would actually tell them what was happening.
    I was raised by my grandma, and she was a pretty straight talker because she thought you could handle it. My advice is to be realistic. Being honest and truthful is part of being a good friend, a good associate, and a good leader.
Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
选项 A、Straight Talkers
B、Different Opinions
C、Agree or Disagree
D、Importance of Speech
答案A
解析 通读全文可知，第一段点明了主旨：如果你要成为一个说话直接的人，你就得相信直言不讳是。一种美德，是你想要拥有的一种品质；第二段接着说明了直言不讳的作用；在第三、四、五段，作者用个人经历说明了直言不讳在工作中的好处；最后一段则再次强调了直言不讳是成为一个好朋友、优秀伙伴和优秀领导的必备品质。由此可推知，选项A(直言不讳者)最适合作文章的标题。故选A。
