In recent years, Western business managers have been heeding the exhortations of business journalists and academics to move their companies toward long‐term, collaborative “strategic partnerships” with their external business partners (e.g., suppliers). The experts’ advice comes as a natural reaction to numerous studies conducted during the past decade that compared Japanese production and supply practices with those of the rest of the world. The link between the success of a certain well-known Japanese automaker and its effective management of its suppliers, for example, has led to an unquestioning belief within Western management circles in the value of strategic partnerships. Indeed, in the automobile sector all three United States manufacturers and most of their European competitors have launched programs to reduce their total number of suppliers and move toward having strategic partnerships with a few.

However, new research concerning supplier relationships in various industries demonstrates that the widespread assumption of Western managers and business consultants that Japanese firms manage their suppliers primarily through strategic partnerships is unjustified. Not only do Japanese firms appear to conduct a far smaller proportion of their business through strategic partnerships than is commonly believed, but they also make extensive use of “market-exchange” relationships, in which either party can turn to the marketplace and shift to different business partners at will, a practice usually associated with Western manufacturers.

Which of the following is cited in the passage as evidence supporting the author's claim about what the new research referred to in highlighted text demonstrates?

The belief within Western management circles regarding the extent to which Japanese firms rely on strategic partnerships The surprising number of European and United States businesses that have strategic partnerships with their suppliers The response of Western automobile manufacturers to the advice that they adopt strategic partnerships with their suppliers The prevalence of market-exchange " relationships between Japanese firms and their suppliers The success of a Particular Japanese automobile manufacturer that favors strategic with its suppliers

文章大意逻辑
近年来，西方企业管理者听从专家建议，推动公司与外部商业伙伴建立长期合作的“战略伙伴关系”，这源于过去十年大量研究对比日本与世界其他地区生产和供应实践，日本汽车制造商成功与供应商有效管理的关联，让西方管理界坚信战略伙伴关系价值。然而，新研究表明西方管理者和商业顾问普遍认为日本企业主要通过战略伙伴关系管理供应商的假设不合理，日本企业通过战略伙伴关系开展业务比例比通常认为的小，还广泛使用“市场交换”关系。 文章类型及逻辑简图
文章类型：新旧观点对比 逻辑简图： Old view: Western managers believe Japanese firms manage suppliers mainly through strategic partnerships due to studies on Japanese production success link with supplier management. (西方管理者因研究认为日本企业主要通过战略伙伴关系管理供应商) New view: New research shows this assumption is unjustified, Japanese firms use strategic partnerships less and market exchange relationships more. (新研究表明此假设不合理，日本企业战略伙伴关系使用少，市场交换关系使用多) 做题方法及问题类型
问题类型：细节题 做题方法：根据问题中“new research”的提示，定位到文中“However, new research...”所在段落，寻找支持作者关于新研究主张的证据。 选项分析
A选项：西方管理界对日本企业依赖战略伙伴关系程度的看法，这是旧观点内容，不是新研究的证据，排除。 B选项：欧美企业与供应商建立战略伙伴关系的数量，与新研究关于日本企业和供应商关系的内容无关，排除。 C选项：西方汽车制造商对采用战略伙伴关系建议的回应，与新研究对日本企业和供应商关系的结论不相关，排除。 D选项：日本企业和供应商之间“市场交换”关系的普遍存在，符合新研究中提到日本企业广泛使用“市场交换”关系这一主张，是新研究结论的证据，当选。 E选项：某日本汽车制造商青睐与供应商建立战略伙伴关系的成功案例，支持的是旧观点，而非新研究结论，排除。
