本题考查作者观点。第五段中作者提到，年青的雇员没有选择，只能等到50或55岁才能卖掉公司的股票以作为配送缴款（matching contribution）。第六段则提到，而老雇员在能够退出（getting out）的时候却没有。60岁和以上的人中1/3的人选择公司股票作为他们3/4的投资计划。该段末句作者连续用几个问号对这种做法进行了质疑：难道他们疏忽了？过度忠诚？疾病？由此我们可推出作者的观点是反对投资自己公司的做法。因此［B］项正确，排除［A］项。
第七段首句作者则提到，投资者不应该完全信任任何一家公司的股票。因此［D］项是作者反对的。［C］项文中未提。词汇补充：to a fault“过度地”，如generous to a fault（过度慷慨）。
