Seven years ago, when I was visiting Germany, I met with an official who explained to me that the country had a perfect solution to its economic problems. Watching the U.S. economy【C1】______ during the 90s, the Germans had decided that they, too, needed to go the high-technology route. But how? The answer seemed obvious: Indians.
The German government decided that it would【C2】______ Indians to Germany just as America does: by offering green cards. Officials created something called the German Green Card and announced that they would issue 20,000 in the first year. Naturally, the Germans expected that tens of thousands more Indians would soon be begging to come, and perhaps the【C3】______would have to be increased. But the program was a failure. A year later barely half of the 20,000 cards had been issued. After a few extensions, the program was【C4】______.
I told the German official at the time that I was sure the【C5】______ would fail. Because the German Green Card never, under any circumstances, translated into German citizenship. The U.S. green card, by contrast, is an almost【C6】______ path to becoming American (after five years and a clean record). The official【C7】______ my objection, saying that there was no way Germany was going to offer these people citizenship. "All we need are young tech workers," he said So Germany was asking bright young【C8】______ to leave their country, culture and families, move thousands of miles away, learn a new language and work in a strange land—but without any【C9】______ of ever being part of their new home. Germany was sending a signal, one that was【C10】______ received in India and other countries, and also by Germany’s own immigrant community.
A) repelled B) professionals C) clearly D) vulnerable
E) lure F) initiative G) soar H) suspicion
I) abolished J) dismissed K) dwellers L) quotas
M) vividly N) automatic O) prospect [br] 【C4】
选项
答案
I
解析
上文说这个项目失败了(a failure),2万张绿卡仅签发出了一半,据此推断此处应表示该项目被中止或取消。abolished“废止,废除”符合上下文语义。
