31、d in tightening anti-bribery enforcement. It is right that bribery should be punished. The economic effects of illegal profits are startling. Bribery distorts competition and diverts national resources into dishonest officials offshore accounts. But the cost and complexity of investigations are spir

32、aling beyond what is reasonable, fed by a hungry “compliance industry“ of lawyers who have never seen a local bribery issue that did not call for an exhaustive global review, and by competing prosecutors, who increasingly run overlapping probes in different countries.To stop a descent into investiga

33、tive madness, enforcement needs to be reformed in four ways. First, regulators should rein in the excesses of the compliance industry and take into account the cost to firms of sprawling investigations. When firms admit to having uncovered bribery among their managers, regulators expect them to inve

34、stigate themselves. The authorities should tell them what level of investigation they want so that companies are not overzealous out of fear of seeming evasive. This is slowly starting to happen, with officials telling firms they should not “aimlessly boil the ocean.“Second, governments should lower

35、 costs by harmonizing anti-bribery laws and improving co-ordination between national probes. The OECD, whose anti-bribery convention has gained wide acceptance, is the natural body to lead this effort.Third, more cases should go to court. Too often, prosecutors force firms to agree to settlements ba

36、sed on controversial legal theories. Taking such matters to court would have the advantage of establishing clear precedents. When firms are reluctant to go to trial, because they are worried about the financial costs of a criminal charge, the terms of settlements should at least undergo more judicia

37、l scrutiny.Lastly, anti-bribery laws should be amended to offer companies a “compliance defense.“ If firms can show that they had sound anti-bribery policies, that they were making reasonable efforts to uphold them, that the wrongdoing did not involve senior managers and that they came forward to th

38、e authorities promptly, the penalties should be greatly reduced.Corrosive as bribery is, the response must be proportionate. Investigations that drag on are a waste of management and public resources. The starting-point for up to half of all cases is a firms voluntary disclosure, but if costs contin

39、ue to rise then firms may be more tempted to bury their bad news. Anti-corruption campaigners would have nothing to cheer if the cure ended up being more harmful than the disease.51 The central idea of the first paragraph is that investigations of bribery are_.（A）absolutely necessary now（B） too cost

40、ly and complicated（C） making no sense to businesses（D）becoming increasingly easier52 The underlined words in Paragraph Two probably mean_.（A）do not overact by trying to appear responsible（B） attempt to let off as many suspects as possible（C） refuse to assume responsibility for any bribery（D）are incl

41、ined to do something to combat bribery53 The first way proposed to reform enforcement is to_.（A）have regulators conduct each probe（B） try to do what seems impossible（C） conduct detailed investigations（D）curb redundant investigations54 Other ways to reform enforcement include the following EXCEPT_.（A

42、）settling more bribery cases in court（B） enhancing related laws and coordination（C） greatly increasing penalties to companies（D）granting companies a compliance defense55 In the last paragraph, the author is trying to argue that_.（A）few firms are willing to disclose cases of bribery（B） anti-corruptio

43、n campaigners are prone to disease（C） most companies enjoy receiving good news（D）staggering costs will hinder bribery investigations56 This passage is intended to highlight the fact that_.（A）it is extremely difficult to combat commercial bribery（B） the system for handling bribery is becoming ridicul

44、ous（C） there is no point investigating any allegations of bribery（D）bribery has been effectively controlled in the United States56 “Give me a place to stand on, and I will move the Earth.“ So Archimedes explained the power of levers in the physical world. The digital realm has levers of its own: “pl

Microsoft used the power of its Windows operating-system platform to shape the destiny of an entire industryand to capture an outsized share of its pr

46、ofits. Some worry that Googles dominance of the web-search business lets it perform a similar trick today.Europe is not leaving it to chance. On April 15th the European Commission sent a “statement of objections“ to Google, accusing it of abusing its dominant position in the internet-search market a

47、nd reviving an antitrust case that has dragged on for five years. In Europe Google handles more than 90% of web searches, making it the place to be for many advertisers. Whether it has harmed consumers by using its dominant platform to steer them away from rival services and towards its own, such as

48、 Google Shopping, is at the heart of the case.Europe is discovering its failure to develop many of the platforms underlying the online economy. Much of the worlds digital territory has in effect been occupied by America without a fight. The big danger is that as the world relies ever more on technol

49、ogical platforms operated by Google and other American firms, they may be able to repeat this trick in areas that have hitherto been Europes strong point: fashion, energy and luxury vehicles, for instance. “We might invest in producing wonderful cars, but those selling the new services for the car would be making the money.“Rather than trying to rein in American firms, European pol
