问题 By citing examples of women employment in Sweden, the author intends to show that
By saying "no paradise is without its paradoxes" (Line 1. Paragraph 2), the author means
选项 A、Sweden does not deserve the name of paradise.
B、Sweden is itself a paradox.
C、Sweden also has problems in sexism.
D、Sweden is a paradise for women.
答案C
解析 语义理解题。首段对妇女在瑞典的平等地位表示了肯定。第二段首句But表明后面的内容与前面意思有所不同。第二句指出：在瑞典，最大的矛盾是政府为提高女性生活已经做了很多，但是仍然使女性在晋升方面遇到障碍。而这种障碍比其他欧洲国家和美国都要大。句中的glass ceiling表示某种东西可望而不可及。该句与首句的转折逻辑一致，表明瑞典在女性平等方面也并不是没有问题和矛盾的，故答案选项为答案。首句中的paradise是对瑞典的比喻，这里没有讽刺意味，不是反语，是说再好的地方也有缺陷之意；paradox与瑞典是包含关系，不能划等号；从前两段来看，"Sweden is a paradise for women"意思正确，但不是首句含义。
