解析
Grammatical construction; Rhetorical construction
This sentence identifies which people have the attitudes needed to be successful entrepreneurs, according to the economist Adam Smith. The main clause it is young people is followed by a relative clause that modifies young people and defines the attributes important to their ability to found businesses: caring little about risk and being extremely optimistic about succeeding. The use of the idiomatic construction it is ... who is a way of placing primary emphasis on the question that Smith addressed with the quoted words.
A Correct. The relative clause beginning who have grammatically and concisely identifies the relevant attitudes that young people have.
B In this version, the relative clause modifying young people is replaced with a prepositional phrase, introduced by with. This clause appears to modify young people restrictively. Thus, the sentence simply identifies a subcategory of young people (those with the contempt of risk ...) and does not clearly explain which people have the attitudes that Smith identifies.
C Replacing the relative clause with a participial phrase introduced by having makes the sentence incomplete, since the point of the sentence is to explain which people have the attitudes that Smith identifies.
D Inserting the phrase are those with makes the sentence awkward and wordy.
E The word group are the ones to have is less concise than the simple verb have and fails to convey the meaning that is clearly intended.
The correct answer is A.
