[填空题]
Business meetings come in all shapes and sizes: ranging from
formal committee meetings to informal one-to-one meetings. The more people there
are at a meeting, the longer it may take to reach a decision. There seems to be
ideal sizes for meetings, depending on the purpose. A meeting where information
is being given to people can be quite large, as questions may be asked by a few
individuals on everyone else’s behalf. The way a committee operates often
depends on the style of its leader or chairman: he may control the proceedings
very strictly, or let everyone speak whenever they want. An effective chairman
should be flexible. In some meetings the members have to be seconded (附议), and
discussed before a vote can be taken. Other meeting may require a consensus (一致)
of the members, that is, everyone has to agree.
