Question

Which was not a U.S. business practice in the late twentieth century?

A. using computer networking to bring together teams of people around the globe

B. establishing contracts solely with countries where English is the major language

C. moving physical production operations to other countries

D. using labor outside the company to provide certain services

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Establishing contracts solely with countries where English is the major language.

Explanation:

For some background information, the 20th century was from January 1, 1901, to December 31, 2000.

By using the same logic that would remove C and D from the answer list (that there are communications between countries with other major languages, due to linguistic advancement), we can reason that B is the answer.

Also to make sure, we can reason that A is also not the answer due to computers and the networking utilizing it were present in the 20th century, becoming prevalent in the 1970s.
