问题 单项选择题

在一个青黄不接的初夏,一只在农家仓库里觅食的老鼠意外地掉进一个盛得半满的米缸里。这意外使老鼠喜出望外,它先是警惕地环顾了一下四周,确定没有危险之后,接下来便是一通猛吃,吃完倒头便睡。
老鼠就这样在米缸里吃了睡、睡了吃。日子在衣食无忧的休闲中过去了。有时,老鼠也曾为是否要跳出米缸进行过思想斗争与痛苦抉择,但终究未能摆脱白花花大米的诱惑。直到有一天它发现米缸见了底,才觉得以米缸现在的高度,自己就是想跳出去,也无能为力了。
对于老鼠而言,这半缸米就是一块试金石。如果它想全部据为己有,其代价就是自己的生命。因此,管理学家把老鼠能跳出缸外的高度称为“生命的高度”。而这高度就掌握在老鼠自己的手里,它多留恋一天,多贪吃一粒,就离死亡近了一步。
在现实生活中,多数人都能做到在明显有危险的地方止步,但是能够清楚地认识潜在的危机,并及时跨越“生命的高度”,就没有那么容易了。
比如,员工的培训在公司管理中的重要性,是任何一个公司都明白的道理,但通过本公司培训毕竟需要人力、物力、财力以及时间,于是导致许多员工无法系统地接触到新事物、新方法、新观念。其实,公司眼前的利益不就是那半缸米吗

老鼠最后的结局是:

A.睡着了

B.逃跑了

C.撑死了

D.饿死了

答案

参考答案:D

解析:从文章中可知,老鼠吃光了米缸里的大米,但是由于米缸太高跳不出去,最后饿死了,所以选择D。
