The attorney turned down the law firm’s offer of a position because she suspected that it was meant merely to fill an affirmative action
quota with no commitment to minority hiring and eventually promoting
.
选项
A、quota with no commitment to minority hiring and eventually promoting
B、quota, having no commitment to minority hiring and eventually promoting
C、quota and did not reflect a commitment to minority hiring and eventual promotion
D、quota, not reflecting a commitment to minority hiring and eventual promotion
E、quota, not one that reflected that minority hiring and eventual promotion was a commitment
答案
C
解析
本题涉及对Affirmative Action法案的了解,该法案帮助美国的少数民族获得更多的就业和教育机会。因而句中用with介词短语修饰quota,表明quota的属性,而这样修饰的结果刚好与该法案的初衷背道而驰。所以with短语修饰不对,划线部分内容应与前面的内容was meant属并列关系,而不是从属关系。有了这样的背景知识,就可以选出C,因为A、B、D、E均表明划线部分与quota部分是从属关系,是修饰限定quota的,A、B中的promoting有名词形式promotion,就该用名词形式。这再次验证了“有名词而不用动名词”的原则(第一章)。C的意思是:她认为这个职位仅是为了满足affirmative action的配额要求,并没有表明真心致力于少数民族的雇用和将来的晋升。
