问题     In Shanghai, a growing number of foreign-funded banks are looking for local people to fill executive positions(行政主管的岗位) rather than people from their own countries as they did in the past. U. S. -based Citibank(花旗银行) put a job announcement in a local newspaper last week calling for executive trainees. It was part of Citibank’ s business plan in China to draw local professionals(专业人员) .Demand for personal banking services has been on the rise since China joined the World Trade Organization at the end of 2001. The move does not only happen to Citibank. Many other foreign-funded banks in the city have made similar decisions. The U. K. ’ s Standard Chartered last year employed over 30 graduates from Chinese universities and colleges as executive trainees. They are expected to take up managerial positions at the bank’ s Shanghai branch after a two-year training program overseas.
    The Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC) has announced it will employ more new graduates in China in the coming year. Local people account for over 92% of the office workers in its Shanghai operation. [br] The "executive trainees" (Line 4, Para. 1) are probably those who are______.

选项 A、persons to train other people
B、persons to be trained
C、executives
D、leaders in the bank

答案 B

解析 题干意为“第一段第三行中的‘executive trainees’可能是指哪些人?”本题考查名词trainees的含义。根据文章第一段最后一句“They(承前指代executive trainees)are expected to take up managerial positions at the bank’s Shanghai branch after a two.year training program overseas”可知,他们被招募来首先要经过培训,所以trainees的意思是“见习生。故选B。
