问题 According to the passage, by 1935 the skepticism of Black workers toward unions was______ [br] The passage suggests which of the following about the response of porters to the Pullman Company’s own union?

选项 A、Few porters ever joined this union.
B、Some porters supported this union before 1935.
C、Porters, more than other Pullman employees, enthusiastically supported this union.
D、The porters’ response was most positive after 1935.
E、The porters’ response was unaffected by the general skepticism of Black workers concerning unions.

答案 B

解析 The best answer is B. Lines 16-19 of the passage state that the existence of a Pullman-owned union “weakened support among Black workers for an independent entity” such as Randolp’s Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. Thus, the passage suggests that some porters did support the Pullman Company union. Lines 16-19 directly contradict A, which implies virtually no support of the Pullman company union. Choice C is incorrect because the passage does not suggest anything about Pullman employees other than porters. Choice D is incorrect: in fact, the passage suggests that the porters’ attitude was less positive after Randolph’s union achieved recognition in 1935. Choice E is incorrect because the passage nowhere suggests that the general skepticism of Black workers had no effect on their response to the Pullman Company’s union.
