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.【C3】______ all, Indian entrepreneurs accounted for 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.
【C11】
选项
A、adventure
B、response
C、initiative
D、impulse
答案
C
解析
名词辨析。结合上下文可知,上段最后三句中两次出现program“计划,策略”,而在本段中作者对此program发表自己的见解,那么所填的词应同样指的是program。C项initiative意为“主动性;主动的行动,倡议”,和program意思相近,故为正确答案。A项adventure意为“冒险;奇遇”,B项response意为“答复,回答;响应”,D项impulse意为“冲动,一时的念头;推动”,这三个选项均和program的意思相去甚远。
