Business ethics is not about personality, though a good personality is valuable. Ethics is the primary element and prerequisite for successful business. No matter what you do, you should think of business as a matter of integrity.

Events resulting from a loss of trust are being seen now and then and they affect the society in many unfortunate ways. Most people know the importance of business ethics, but still some people don't honor them. We often hear media reports on problems in business, such as adding harmful materials to products.

For example, most of those in our young generation have embraced email and cell phones. We use email to communicate with our friends or business associates because it's easy and convenient, especially for spanning times zones. Email also allows us time to work out our thoughts as we create the message and is less intrusive than a phone call. Most of us also own cell phones, although the primary reason is often to have a means of contacting others in the event of an emergency. Also growing in popularity are services such as Skype that enable us to make free or low-cost phone calls from our computers.
But many in my generation are also caught between the resistance of our parents' older generation to new technology and the lightening-fast adoption to instant ways of connecting exhibited by our children and others of younger generations. Many older adults in our lives would rather keep in touch by means of their land-line house phone. This creates a dilemma for those of us who have become accustomed to more modern forms of communication. As our parents and grandparents age, we encourage them to take advantage of modern technology and carry a cell phone or use email so we can easily keep in touch, but they often resist bemuse of the cost and complexity.
Fortunately there are some modern conveniences that do a better job of bridging the gap between today's technology and yesterday's comfort level. The Jitterbug cell phone, for example, was designed for seniors and is much easier to use than most other cell phones. It also offers that familiar feel of the traditional phone with its use of a dial tone and access to a friendly operator when you dial zero. And if the older adults in your life can't afford or are overwhelmed by a computer, there are products like MyCelery (a two-way communication method using familiar fax hardware) and Presto (a communication service offering one-way delivery of photos and letters) that can help them be connected enough to enjoy the instant gratification (满意) of receiving digital pictures or a quick e-note. The younger generation is less into using email and more into instant connections using SMS (Short Message Service) ,also known as text messaging or texting, on their cell phones. One way to win brownie (核仁巧克力饼) points with your grandkids is to flex your thumbs on your cell phone keypad and send them text messages, According to a recent poll by Cingular Wireless, the majority of parents who text their children felt that it improved communications with their kids and made them easier to reach.

There are those who my that wearing a uniform. gives a person a sense of identification with a larger, more important concept. But what could be more important than the individual himself？ If an organization must rely on the dress style. and its buttons to inspire its members, it tends to show its weakness in market competition and is going to the dogs.
Some argue that the practice of making persons wear uniforms, say in a school, so as to eliminate all envy and competition in the matter of dress. A poor student who cannot afford good-quality clothing is not to be belittled by a well-dressed student. But these arguments conveniently ignore such critical concepts as freedom of choice, motivation, and individuality. But why should one strive to be better if all others were to wear the same style. of clothing？ It acted as if everyone in, society were demanded to buy the same model car, or have the same type of daily food. When this happened, all incentive to improve one's life is removed. Why would parents bother to work much hard, wishing that their children could enjoy a better life than they do when they are certain that their children are going to be forced to have exactly the same life as they do now？
Uniforms also hurt the economy. Right now, billions of dollars are spent on the fashion industry yearly. Thousands of persons are employed in designing, creating and marketing different types of clothing. If everyone were forced to wear uniforms, artistic personnel would be unnecessary. Sales persons would be superfluous as well; why bother to sell the only items that are available？ The wearing of uniforms would destroy the fashion industry, which in turn would have a ripple effect on such industries as advertising and promotion. Without advertising, newspapers, magazines, and television would not be able to remain in business. One entire information and entertainment industry would collapse.

Over time, the liberal democratic notion of citizenship developed in two directions. First, there was movement to increase the proportion of members of society who were eligible(合格的) to participate as citizens — especially through extending the right of suffrage(投票)— and to ensure the basic political equality of all. Second, there was a broadening of the legal activities of government and a use of governmental power to put right imbalances in social and economic life. Political citizenship became an instrument through which groups and classes with sufficient numbers of votes could use the state power to enhance their social and economic well-being.
Within the general liberal view of democratic citizenship, tensions have developed over the degree to which government can and should be used as an instrument for promoting happiness and well-being. Political philosopher Martin Diamond has classified two views of democracy as follows. On the one hand, there is the "libertarian" perspective that stresses the private pursuit of happiness and emphasizes the necessity for restraint on government and protection of individual liberties. On the other hand, there is the "majoritarian' view that emphasizes the "task of the government to uplift and aid the common man against the malefactors(作恶者) of great wealth". The tensions between these two views are very evident today. The tax-payer revolts and calls for smaller government and less government regulation clash with demands for greater government involvement in the economic marketplace and the social sphere.
The author's primary purpose is to ______.
A．study ancient concepts of citizenship
B．contrast different notions of citizenship
C．criticize modern libertarian democracy
D．describe the importance of universal suffrage
