OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
The second sentence of the text provides the clue to the missing words in both blank 1 and blank 2 . The second sentence puts forth the assumption that the employer has power over the actions of the subordinates. This suggests that 'held responsible' fits in blank 1 and 'vicarious liability' (because the employer is indirectly held responsible for the acts of the employees) best fits in blank 2. Finally, the overall tone of the text suggests that 'every transgression' is apt in blank 3. Thus, the answer is C, E, I.
