C,D.

Yet perhaps because the Supreme Court later struck down the ruling, politicians and scholars have failed to recognize its effects,

请注意这里的its 指的是EEOC而不是struck down the ruling，所以学者没有认识到EEOC导致了产假，还以为是劳工状况改变导致的，因此27不能选B.

25. The answer should be C

Because the last part of the passage claims that yet perhaps because the
            Supreme Court later struck down
            the ruling, politicians and scholars
            have failed to recognize its effects,
            assuming that employers adopted
            maternity-leave policies in response
            to the growing feminization of the
            workforce. So we can infer that although the government policy had been struck down, employers still provide maternity leave policy as stated in the beginning of the passage.

27. The answer should be D, not B

因为在line30-37中说到,即使Supreme Court later struck down the ruling,这些politicians跟scholars failed to recognize its effects,也就是说他们仍然认为这些employers在FMLA之前就为了response to the growing feminization of the workforce而采用了这个policy.

而至于B文中只有说failed to recognize,没有说他们disagree.

支持CD
27题的D选项原文定位十分明显，属于原句同义改写。请看L11-L15

    

Employers did

    

create maternity-leave programs

    

in the 1970’s and 1980’s, but not as

    

a purely voluntary response in the

    

 (15)      absence
of any government mandate.

其中L11的did一词强调作者认同“产假在FMLA之前就存在”这个事实。
but not as a purely voluntary response说明了作者对于资方设置产假的"motivation"不同意其他学者的观点。
