When Kathie Gifford’s face was splashed across the newspapers in 1996 after her lucrative line of Walmart clothing was exposed as the work of urulerpaid laborers in New York City’s Chinatown, the Department of Labor and the White House teamed up to corulemn such practices. With much fanfare, President Clinton’s administration launched the "No Swear" campaign, which pressured retailers and manufacturers to submit to periodic iruleperulent inspection of their workplace conditions.
This campaign urged manufacturers to sign the Workplace Code of Conduct a promise to self-regulate that has since been adopted by a handful of retailers and many of the nation’s largest manufacturers, including Nike and L.L. Bean. However, the Department of Defense, which has a $1 billion garment business that would make it the country’s 14th largest retail apparel outlet, has not signed the Code of Conduct. In addition, it has not agreed to demand that its contractors submit to periodic inspections.
Because the Department of Defense has not agreed to adhere to the code, the job of stopping public sector sweatshops falls to the Department of Labor. Federal contractors that persist in violating wage laws or safety and health codes can lose their lucrative taxpayer financed contracts. But Suzanne Seiden, a deputy administrator at the Department of Labor, says that to her knowledge, the department has never applied that rule to government apparel manufacturers. "I just assume that they are adhering to safety and health requirements," she says. According to records obtained by Mother Jones, through a Freedom of Information Act Request, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration has cited Lion 32 times for safety and health violations in the past 12 years. [br] Which of the following statements about the Department of Defense is tree?
选项
A、It will become the country’s 14th largest retail apparel manufacturer
B、It hasn’t acted according to the Workplace Code of Conduct.
C、It has demaruled its contractors to sign the Workplace Code of Conduct.
D、It has teamed up with the Department of Labor to launch a campaign.
答案
B
解析
这类题需要事先通读全文,理解全文主旨,尤其是关于国防部的内容;然后再将四个选项进行比较,用排除法。A国防部是美国排名第14的零售服装制造商,这与文章中retail apparel outlet(零售服装批发商店)不符;B它没有按照《工作场所操作规范》行事,这与文章中has not signed the code of conduct正好相符:C它要求承包商签署《工作场所操作规范》,这与文章中it has not agreed to demand that its contractors submit to periodic inspections相反:D它要求劳工部发起一场运动,文章中没有提及。所以,对比分析可得知B为正确答案。
