In early September, Trinidad’s state-owned sugar company made all of its 9,200 employees redundant. Though most are Indo-Trinidadians and supporters of the island’s truculent opposition party, there were no protests. The workers got redundancy pay totaling 115 million dollars, the offer of retraining, and the chance to continue growing cane as independent farmers in plots on the company’s 31,000 hectares of farmland.
Trinidad, booming on oil and gas, has plenty of new jobs. Jamaica’s stagnant economy is another story. The government privatized its sugar factories in 1994, but agreed to take them back four years later. Hit by floods and droughts, this year’s sugar crop was a disaster. A shutdown might be greeted with riots by the 7,000 sugar workers and 8,000 cane farmers of the country. Barbados, prosperous and stable, has a different problem. Its neat cane fields are far more attractive to tourists than the eroded scrubland of Antigua, which stopped growing sugar 30 years ago.
选项
A、They witnessed unsuccessful reforms.
B、They went bankrupt due to crop failure.
C、They suffered from inefficient production.
D、They failed due to a shortage of labor supply.
答案
A
解析
根据题干信息找到相关的原文第二段第四、五句发现,该国对制糖业改革以后,结果是天灾(洪水和干旱使糖作物面临灾难)、人祸(工厂倒闭会使工人暴动),由此可判断,该国的改革并不成功。因此,选项a的内容符合题意,是正确答案。
