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.
【C19】
选项
A、prospect
B、suspicion
C、outcome
D、destination
答案
A
解析
名词辨析题。前文提到德国绿卡不能让印度人转为德国公民,而这些年轻的技术工人千里迢迢来到德国工作生活,将来也不能成为德国的居民,这会令人感到没有前景和期望。由空格前的转折连词but,可推知这里要表达的就是与“没有盼头”相近的意思。without any prospect的意思是“毫无期望/前景”,符合句意,故选A项prospect“期望;前景”。B项suspicion“怀疑”、C项outcome“结果”和D项destination“目的地”代入空格分别表示“毫无怀疑”、“毫无结果”和“毫无目的”,与空格后的后置定语of ever being part of their new home均无法构成通顺的语义。
