问题 The employer’s failure to protect its employees against smoking causes an employee to quit her job.
选项 A、该雇主未能成功地保护其雇员免受吸烟之害，由此导致一位雇员辞职。
B、由于该雇主未能保护其雇员免受吸烟之害而导致一位雇员辞职。
C、为防止员工辞职该雇主发起禁烟运动但最终失败。
答案B
解析 本句中有两个短语的含义需特别注意：一为failure to do sth. ，意为“未能做某事”. 此结构体现的是“做与不做”的区别，与“成功与否”无关；一为protect sb. against sth. ，意为“保护某人免受某物之苦”。结合上述分析可知，B项的翻译最符合原意。A项将failure to do sth. 错译为“做某事未能成功”，有失妥当，但句子结构表达正确。
