Bao is the art director at Blue Cat Publishing, a publisher of art monographs, coffee-table books, and several niche lifestyle magazines. He has an art degree, and he won many awards for his design work before he took over the branding and marketing at Blue Cat. Even though Bao's employees do not always understand his thinking and find Bao to be introverted and difficult to talk to, they all have huge respect for his talent and vision for the company. In fact, the company has received many accolades for its overall branding since Bao took over the department. Which of the following is most likely true about Bao's employees at Blue Cat?A. Their trust in Bao is due to their propensity to have faith in people.B. They believe that Bao cares about them personally, and this makes them loyal to him.C. Their trust in Bao stems from their belief in his personal integrity, character, and principles.D. Their trust in Bao is based more on emotion than on reason; basically, his employees like him.E. Their trust in Bao is based on his proven track record and his demonstrated expertise in his field.

Since Bao is introverted and doesn’t talk much, nor does his employees understand him easily, (E) makes the most sense as an option compared to the other options. Due to his nature, it would be difficult to discern whether Bao cares for his employees, as mentioned by option (B). This in turn, doesn’t make it easy for his employees to like him, as option (D) describes, since no personal relationships seem to be established, which also makes (C) an unlikely answer. Nothing in the text implies that the employees have a propensity to trusting people, making (A) not likely to be the answer.
