Seven years ago, when I was visiting Germany, I met with an official who explained to me that the country had a perfect solution to its economic problems. Watching the U.S. economy【C1】________during the ’90s, the Germans had decided that they, too, needed to go the high-technology【C2】________. But how? In the late ’90s, the answer seemed obvious: Indians. After all, Indian entrepreneurs【C3】________one of every three Silicon Valley start-ups. So the German government decided that it would【C4】________Indians to Germany just as America does: by【C5】________green cards. Officials created something called the German Green Card and【C6】________that they would issue 20,000 in the first year.【C7】________the Germans expected that tens of thousands more Indians would soon be begging to come, and perhaps the【C8】________would have to be increased. But the program was a failure. A year later【C9】________half of the 20,000 cards had been issued. After a few extensions, the program was【C10】________.
I told the German official at the time that I was sure the【C11】________would fail. It’s not that I had any particular expertise in immigration policy,【C12】________I understood something about green cards, because I had one (the American【C13】________). The German Green Card was misnamed, I argued,【C14】________it never, under any circumstances, translated into German citizenship. The U.S. green card, by contrast, is an almost【C15】________path to becoming American (after five years and a clean record). The official【C16】________my objection, saying that there was no way Germany was going to offer these people citizenship. "We need young tech workers," he said. "That’s what this program is all【C17】________." So Germany was asking bright young【C18】________to leave their country, culture and families, move thousands of miles away, learn a new language and work in a strange land—but without any【C19】________of ever being part of their new home. Germany was sending a signal, one that was【C20】________received in India and other countries, and also by Germany’s own immigrant community.
【C15】
选项
A、aggressive
B、automatic
C、vulnerable
D、voluntary
答案
B
解析
形容词辨析题。上一句提到德国绿卡在任何情况下都不能转变成德国的公民权,而此句中by contrast“相比之下”往往用来指出相反的情况,据此判断此处是讲美国绿卡可以转为美国公民。B项automatic“自动的”能体现出美国绿卡转为美国公民的容易性。与德国的never形成对照,故为本题答案。A项aggressive指“好斗的;侵略性的”,也指人“有野心的”,但括号内的解释表明获得美国绿卡是一个需要时间的缓慢过程. aggressive语义过于激进。C项vulnerable通常形容人容易受伤害,或作比喻义,表示某物易受攻击,不宜用来修饰path。D项voluntary“自愿的;主动的”通常指人的行为。
