132. 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.
(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
本题答案C
我认为应当是D,原句中“with no commitment to minority hiring and eventually promoting”是状语成分,属于句子的枝干。答案C将其改成并列主干是不合适的。而答案D是现在分词作状语,表达了伴随的结果,是十分好的结构。
不能同意沙发的说法,无论怎样修改,在可能的情况下应尽量保留原文含义。且not reflecting a commitment to minority hiring and eventual promotion作状语,其逻辑主语该句子主语it,该状语修饰谓语“was meant merely to fill ”,表伴随结果,十分合理。
