今天的题目：

Levin would not comment on the debate last week, but there were signs that the chairman was backing off his hard-line stand, at least to some extent. During the discussion of rock singing verses at last month’s stockholders’ meeting, Levin asserted that “music is not the cause of society’s ills” and even cited his son, a teacher in the Bronx, New York, who uses rap to communicate with students. But he talked as well about the “balanced struggle” between creative freedom and social responsibility, and he announced that the company would launch a drive to develop standards for distribution and labeling of potentially objectionable music.

1.In face of the recent attacks on the company, the chairman  Levin ________.

[A] stuck to a strong stand to defend freedom of expression

[B] softened his tone and adopted some new policy

[C] changed his attitude and yielded to objection

[D] received more support from the 15-member board
