Sevenyears ago, when I was visiting Germany, I met with an official whoexplained to me that the country had a perfect solution to its economicproblems. Watching the U.S. economy soar during the 90's, the Germanshad decided that they, too, needed to go the high-technology 63.But how? In the late '90s, the answer seemed obvious: Indians. Afterall, Indian entrepreneurs accounted for one of every three SiliconValley start-ups. So the German government decided that it would 65 Indians to Germany just as America does: by offering green cards. ……….

63. A)circuit B)strategy C)trait D)route

點點D 新東方B

解析：看到美國經濟在九十年代騰飛，德國人也決定他們必須走高科技路線go the high-technology route， adopt可以 strategy 搭配，但go不行。

65. A)import B)kidnap C)convey D)lure

點點D) 新東方A)

解析：但怎么走高科技路線呢？為什么答案明顯是印度人呢，因為印度企業家在九十年代占了硅谷新創企業的三分之一。因此德國政府決定象美國政府一樣吸引(引誘lure)印度人到德國來，給他們提供綠卡。而不是把印度人進口到德國，商品可以進口，好像沒聽說人可以進口吧。

……TheGerman Green Card was misnamed, I argued, because it never, under anycircumstances, translated into German citizenship. The U.S. green card,by contrast, is an almost 76 pathto becoming American (after five years and a clean record). Theofficial dismissed my objection, saying that there was no way Germanywas going to offer these people citizenship. "We need young techworkers," he said. "That's what this program is all about." So Germanywas asking bright young 79 toleave their country, culture and families; move thousands of milesaway; learn a new language; and work in a strange land -- but withoutany prospect of ever being part of their new home. Germany was sendinga signal, one that was 81 received in India and other countries, and also by Germany's own immigrant community.

76. A)aggressive B)automatic C)vulnerable D)voluntary

點點B 新東方D

解析：作者認為德國綠卡叫錯名字了，因為德國綠卡在任何情況下都不會轉化為德國公民身份。而美國綠卡，相比之下(by contrast)，卻幾乎是一條自動的通往成為美國公民的路。voluntary 自愿的,志愿的，放在這里不通。

79. A)dwellers B)citizens C)professionals D)amateurs

點點C 新東方B

解析：一個德國官員說，我們需要年輕的技術工人。注意tech workers，還有so引導的因果關系。德國需要技術工人，因此德國要求聰明的年輕專業人員(professionals)背井離鄉到異鄉工作，但是沒有任何成為這個新家的一部分的前景。tech workers 和professionals替換，上下文銜接很緊密。如果選citizens，則顯得突兀，聰明的年輕公民，什么國家的公民？所指不清。

81. A)partially B)clearly C)brightly D)vividly

點點B 新東方A

解析：最后作者做了個總結。德國的做法是在發出一個信號，這個信號被印度和其它國家，也被德國自己的移民社區，清楚地接收到。言下之意是印度、其它國家、德國的移民社區都了解了要成為真正的德國人是很難的。partially receive部分接收，這個搭配脫離上下文是可以成立的，但是在這里的語境中就不對了。
