Review: Glass Ceiling III
Explanation
This question asks for the author's opinion on the
glass-ceiling theory, and we haven't gotten a lot of opinion from the author in
the passage. The author ends the passage with two possible explanations, not a
decisive conclusion. The strongest statement we get from the author is that
"the glass-ceiling notion... has been harder to account for in empirically proven
terms." Let's look for an answer choice along those lines. Choice (C) hits on
that point: we have a problem with a lack of proof or substance. And, if that's
the main problem, then presumably the theory is at least somewhat plausible.
The correct answer is (C).
