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.
【C18】
选项
A、dwellers
B、citizens
C、professionals
D、amateurs
答案
C
解析
名词辨析兼上下文语义题。德国的计划是吸引印度人来振兴国家经济。上两句的直接引语中,那位德国官员说起德国需要的是年轻的技术工人(young tech workers)。此处句首的so承接上文,指出结果。根据谓语was asking“要求”和空格前的修饰语bright young,推断空格处的名词语义应跟young tech workers一致,四个选项中只有C项professionals“专业人员”可用于替代young tech workers,故为本题答案。从逻辑来看,德国吸引印度人是为了帮助它振兴经济,因此不会随便找印度的A项dwellers“居民”或B项citizens“公民”,更不会找D项amateurs“业余人士”。这三个选项跟上文的young tech workers衔接不上。
