问题 A study shows that while some women continued to outpace men in achievements, they ceased making real progress at the top of an organization.

选项 A、stopped
B、retarded
C、contained
D、prevented

答案A

解析    (1)句子结构。
   本句结构为A study(主语)shows(谓语)that while some women continued to outpace men in achievements,(that引导的宾语从句,while在此意为“尽管”,引导宾语从句中的让步状语从句)they ceased making real progress at the top of an organization(宾语从句的主句)。
   (2)选项词义。
   A.stop v.停止;堵塞;断绝
   B.retard v.延迟;阻止;妨碍
   C.contain v.包含;控制;容纳
   D.prevent v.预防,防止;阻止
   句子大意为“研究表明:一些女性的成就不断超越男性,但她们升至机构高层后却难以取得真正进展”。题干中cease意为“中止”“结束”,与选项stop词义最为接近,故选项A正确。
