In many organizations, perhaps the best way to approach certain new projects is to assemble a group of people into a team. This offers several advantages. First, a group has a wider range of knowledge and skills than any single individual is likely to possess. Sometimes creative solutions come about because a group is able to make risky decisions, but an individual might not easily do so. This is because the group spreads responsibility for a decision to all the members and thus no single individual can be held accountable if the decision turns out to be wrong. Taking part in a group process can also be very rewarding for members of the team. When team members have a voice in making a decision, they surely feel better about carrying out the work. Furthermore, a team member has a better chance to shine since his ideas and contributions are recognized as significant.
- It is stated in the passage that in terms of knowledge and skill, ----.
the best way to achieve a task is to work alone | |
an individual cannot outperform a team | |
the elderly can anticipate different aspects of fulfilling a project | |
an executive group needs to include a gifted personnel | |
an abrupt decision is the only way out for the risky responsibilities |

Robert Capa has been the synonym of war photography. Born as Friedmann Endre Ernő, Capa was forced to leave his homeland after his involvement in anti-government protests. Capa had originally wanted to become a writer, but after his arrival in Berlin, he first found work as a photographer. He later left Germany and moved to France due to the rise in Nazism. He tried to find work as a freelance journalist. It was there that he changed his name to Robert Capa, mainly because he thought it would sound more American. In 1936, after the breakout of the Spanish Civil war, Capa went to Spain and it was here over the next three years that he built his reputation as a war photographer. One of Capa’s most famous quotes was 'If your pictures aren't good enough, you're not close enough.' And he took his attitude of getting close to the action to an extreme. His photograph, The Death of a Loyalist Soldier is a prime example of this as Capa captures the very moment the soldier falls. However, many have questioned the authenticity of this photograph, claiming that it was staged and fake.

(IV) It is difficult to pinpoint the origin of the phrase.
