America is one of many countries where the state gives a leg-up to members of certain racial, ethnic, or other groups by holding them to different standards. The details【C1】________. In some countries, the policy applies only to areas under direct state control, such as public-works contracts or【C2】________ to public universities. In others, private firms are also obliged to take account of the race of their employees, contractors and even owners. But the effects are strikingly similar around the world.
Many of these policies were put in place with the best of intentions: to【C3】________ for past injustices and purify their legacy. No one can deny that, for example, blacks in America have suffered awful wrongs, and continue to suffer【C4】________. Favouring members of these groups seems like a quick and effective way of making society【C5】________.

答案
H
解析
空格处的词跟public-works contracts并列,因此推断空格处填入名词。此处是政府在其职权范围实施的优待政策的两个具体例子:一个为“国有的雇佣合同”,另一个“公立大学的 ”。根据常识可知,对于少数民族的孩子,大学入学是有特殊优待的。admission意为“入学”,符合语境。
