1.       
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（C）

    

(E) quota, not one that reflected
that minority hiring and eventual promotion was a commitment

The answer should be C. I got A, the explanation is minority hiring and eventually
promoting don't paralleled each other.Is it bc minority hiring is n+ving and eventually promoting is adv+ving?

Is it an OG explanation?  I doubt it tho.

promoting有名词形式promotion就不能用promoting来表达名词形式。
