选项 A、making it
B、prevented
C、handicapped
D、protected

答案C

解析 此题属于语义搭配题。handicap意为“妨碍,使不利”,例如:Ignorance can handicap the progress of city .愚昧无知会妨碍城市的进步。原文中提到的长期的计划经济的传统,资本利用率低,过时的分配体系等都应该是妨碍了中国公司的进步和发展的,故选项C handicapped意为“受到妨碍”正确。选项A making it意为“成功”;选项B prevented常与介词from连用,意为“避免”;选项D protected意为“防卫,保护”。
