It’ s very interesting to note where the debate about diversity is taking place. It is taking place primarily in political circles. Here at the college Fund, we have a lot of contact with top corporate leaders; none of them is talking about getting fid of those instruments that produce diversity. In fact, they say that if their companies are to compete in the global village and in the global market place, diversity is an imperative. They also say that the need for talented, skilled Americans means we hale to expand the pool of potential employees. And in looking at where birth rates are growing and at where the population is shifting, corporate America understands that expanding the pool means promoting policies that help provide skills to more minorities, more women, and more immigrants. Corporate leaders know that if that doesn’ t occur in our society, they will not have the engineers, the scientists, the lawyers, or the business managers they will need.
Likewise, I don’ t hear people in the academy saying, "Let’ s go backward. Let’ s go back to the good old days, when we had a meritocracy" ( which was never true -- we never had a meritocracy, although we’ ve come closer to it in the last 30 years). I recently visited a great little college in New York where the campus has doubled its minority population in the last six years. I talked with an African American who has been a professor there for a long time, and she remembers that when she first joined the community, there were fewer than a handful of minorities on campus. Now, all of us feel the university is better because of the diversity. So where we hear this debate is primarily in political circles and in the media -- not in corporate board rooms or on college campuses.
According to the passage, diversity can be achieved in American society by ______.
选项
A、promoting policies that provide skills to employees
B、training more engineers, scientists and businessmen
C、expanding the pool of potential employees
D、providing education for all regardless of race or sex
答案
D
解析
根据题意,确定答案在文章第二段第五句话。前文提到“对于有天赋、有技能的美国人的需求,意味着不得不扩大有此潜质的雇员队伍…”第五句话指出“而要扩大这个队伍,意味着要改进政策,向更多的少数人种、妇女和移民提供技能。”D项涵盖了这个意思,而A项、B项和C项表达不准确,不全面。
