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【C2】______. But how? In the late 90s, the answer seemed obvious: Indians.【C3】______all, Indian entrepreneurs accounted for one of every three Silicon Valley start-ups. So the German government decided that it would【C4】______Indians to Germany just as America does; by【C5】______green cards. Officials created something called the German Green Card and【C6】______that they would issue 20 000 in the first year.【C7】______, the Germans expected that tens of thousands more Indians would soon be begging to come, and perhaps the【C8】______would have to be increased. But the program was a failure. A year later【C9】______half of the 20 000 cards had been issued. After a few extensions, the program was【C10】______
I told the German official at the time that I was sure the【C11】______would fail. It’ s not that I had any particular expertise in immigration policy,【C12】______I understood something about green cards, because I had one(the American【C13】______). The German Green Card was misnamed, I argued,【C14】______it never, under any circumstances, translated into German citizenship. The U. S. green card, by contrast, is an almost【C15】______path to becoming American(after five years and a clean record). The official【C16】______my objection, saying that there was no way Germany was going to offer these people citizenship. "We need young tech workers," he said. "That’ s what this program is all【C17】______. " So Germany was asking bright young【C18】______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【C19】______of ever being part of their new home. Germany was sending a signal, one that was【C20】______received in India and other countries, and also by Germany’ s own immigrant community.
【C16】
选项
A、overtook
B、fascinated
C、submitted
D、dismissed
答案
D
解析
动词辨析。根据上下文可知,这位德国官员对我的看法不予理睬。dismiss意为“解散;解雇;不再考虑或谈论”,符合语境,为正确答案。overtake意为“赶上;突然遭遇”,fascinate意为“使着迷”,submit意为“服从;提交”。
