单选题
Thousands of employees chose Enron as their sole investment option mainly because _____.
A
the 401(k) made them responsible for their own future
B
Enron offered to add company stock to their investment
C
their employers intended to cut back on pension spending
D
Enron’s offer was similar to a defined-benefit plan
参考解析
解析：
从文章第四段可知，401(k)与以往的defined-benefit plan一个重要的不同在于，前者是让职工在很大程度上去负责自己的经济命运（比如说自己决定要不要将那些钱做进一步的投资），而后者则是让公司来负责。而第五段又进一步指出Enron的政策“matched a certain proportion of each employee’s 401(k) contribution with company stock”即职工在公司401(k)上的投资量与他将来可以获得的公司股份挂上钩。由此可推知，职工们选择Enron作为其唯一的投资对象很可能是受了公司提供的这种免费的诱惑，故B项符合。
