问题 According to the passage, "things formerly judged to be best left unsaid"(Para. 1) probably refers to "______".
The reason why women and blacks play down their visibility is that they ______.

选项 A、know that someone in authority will reach down and give them a promotion
B、don’t want people to think that their promotions were due to sex or color
C、don’t want to give people the impression that they work under false beliefs
D、believe they can get promoted by reason of their sex or color

答案B

解析 事实判断题。意为:"不想让人认为他们的晋升是出于性别和肤色原因"。即:不想让人误以为老板是因为喜欢她或让别人知道自己对不同肤色的人公平看待才给他们晋升的。最后一段指出,克里蒙的观点是否有点荒唐呢?对于许多人来说,特别是对妇女和像克里蒙这样的少数民族来说并不荒唐,因为他们感到自己已看到事情的本质(the scales have dropped from their eyes)。贾米森在纽约做管理顾问,帮助公司处理这方面的事务,她说:"公司工作的妇女和黑人经常有些错误认识,认为只要努力工作,就会有晋升的机会—领导层的人会下顾(reach down),给你升职。妇女和黑人大都害怕人们会认为他们升职是因为自己的性别或肤色,所以他们尽量不出头露面宣扬自己(play down their visibility)"。对于这些人,她的忠告是:学学白人男性们引人注目(find their way into the spotlight)的一贯做法。
