23、 ambition urges them to endeavor for highstatus jobs.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章以一本名为Breaking the Bamboo Ceiling的书为切入点，指出了在美国的亚洲员工面临晋升障碍的社会现象，同时南亚人比东亚人更容易晋升，分析了产生这一现象背后的种种原因。1C 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Because AsianAmericans had higher incomes and education levels and committed fewer crimes than their average countrymen

24、, they were seen as a model minority. Despite this, they rarely rose to the top of companies. A mix of individual, cultural and organizational barriers the bamboo ceiling， of the books title seemed to prohibit them from rising.”(由于亚裔美国人的收入和教育水平更高，犯罪行为也比一般同胞少，他们被视为模范少数族裔。尽管如此，他们很少能升到公司的高层。个人、文化和组织的障碍

25、书名中的“bamboo ceiling”混合在一起，似乎阻止了他们的晋升)可知，“bamboo ceiling”指的是在美国的亚洲员工面临的晋升障碍。故选C。2A 词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“In the technology sectors, Asians make up over 30% of the workers but less than 15% of bosses. In 2017 Asians made up roughly 6% of the countrys population but only 3% of the bosses of S&P 500 (标准普尔 500 指

26、数) firms.”(在科技行业，亚洲人占员工总数的30%以上，但占老板总数的不到15%。在2017年，亚洲人约占美国人口的6%，但在标准普尔500指数公司的老板中，亚洲人只占3%)可知，15年后，亚洲人在行业中仍然没有得到充分的代表，即亚洲人缺乏代表。故画线词意思为“缺乏代表”。故选A。3D推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“South Asians endure greater racism than East Asians but still outperform even whites (if success is weighed against share of population).

27、Their research also rules out lack of ambition: a greater share of Asians than whites endeavor for highstatus jobs.”(南亚人忍受着比东亚人更严重的种族主义，但表现仍然超过白人如果成功与人口比例相比较的话。他们的研究也排除了缺乏雄心壮志的可能性：努力获得高职位的亚洲人比白人要多)以及最后一段中“That leaves culture.”(这样一来就只剩下文化这种原因)可推知，根据Jackson Lu的研究，东亚人升职比南亚人少的主要原因是文化。故选D。4B细节理解题。根据最后一段中

28、“The researchers conclude that South Asians tend to be more determined and confident than East Asians in how they communicate at work, which fits Western concepts of how a leader should behave.”(研究人员得出的结论是，南亚人在工作中的沟通方式往往比东亚人更有决心和自信，这符合西方关于领导者的行事观念)可知，南亚人更容易在美国公司中成功，是因为他们表现出的信心与西方领导一致。故选B。.完形填空Recent
