单选题The phrase“an important role in enlightening parents”in the third paragraph most proba-bly means an important role in__________．
A．causing parents to understand
B．persuading parents
C．understanding parents
D．discussing with parents
【命题目的】此题考查根据上下文猜测短语含义的能力。
【解题要点】在解题过程中，最有可能遇到的问题是enlighten这个生词。即使不知道这个词的含义，也可通过上下文，推测出来其含义。在本句后面接着就具体讲了通过“和家长会面以及汇报学生进步的新方法来促进学校和家庭的和谐互动”，这是进一步阐释老师在推动家长方面可以发挥的作用，因为是“互动”，就不可能是单方面的“说服”，故排除B项。而C项“理解家长”和D项“和家长讨论”，用在此处无法表示老师的积极作用，从而推断此处意为“在启发家长方面有重要作用”。

Often referred to as "the heart of a factoring organization", the credit department is responsi-ble for granting credit to clients´ customers and for collecting the accounts receivable purchased by the factor. When factored clients submit customer orders for credit approval, the credit department analyzes the financial condition and credit worthiness of the customer, and then makes a decision to approve or decline the order. The department must then monitor the condition of approved custom-ers and collect all due receivables. Careful credit checking and effective collection procedures in this department can greatly reduce the risks inherent in factoring.
As the head of the credit department, the credit manager is responsible for seeing that the de-partment operates effectively. He must develop the factor´ s credit policies in consultation with sen-ior factoring associates, and he is in overall command of everything from credit and collections to bankruptcy and liquidations. If the factor is a commercial bank division, the credit manager is a bank´ s vice president, and credit policy must also be approved by top management of the bank.
Assisting the credit manager may be several supervisors who have credit responsibilities of their own and who also oversee the analysis and approval of customer orders by the credit special-ists. Credit supervisors typically spend about eighty percent of their time handling large customer orders. If a customer order exceeds a supervisor´ s credit authority, he is responsible for making recommendations to the credit manager. A supervisor also reviews a subordinate´ s credit decision if the subordinate is unsure of the extent of the credit risk or if a client questions a particular credit decision.
In extremely large credit exposures, supervisors bear the responsibility for analyzing the credit position of the customers and deciding on credit limits. To do this, they must regularly obtain cur-rent data from various credit information sources. They must also have extensive contact with each customer to determine operational performance and progress. Frequently, supervisors are called up-on to give advice on what should be done to improve a company´ s financial condition. Meeting all these responsibilities requires that each supervisor continuously observe and study the industries with which he is concerned, so that he is capable of anticipating market changes which may affect his accounts.
A supervisor´ s major challenge is to maintain a fine balance between the demands of clients that all their customer orders be approved and the questionable financial position of some of the cus-tomers. In reviewing any credit decision, a supervisor must be capable of weighing a variety of ele-ments, including the possibility of losing the client, the customer´ s credit position, and the extent of any possible loss.
