Young people always suffer in recessions. Employers stop【C1】______them because they are easier to sack. But in【C2】______episodes, such as the recessions of the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, older workers were also fired. This time is【C3】______. During the financial crisis in 2008, and【C4】______, they have done better than other age groups.
Why have older employees been【C5】______to young people? In some countries they benefit from job protection not【C6】______to younger workers, but that did not really help them in past recessions. What has changed is that firms now【C7】______the full costs of getting rid of older staff. In the past early-retirement schemes made it【C8】______to push grey-haired workers out of the door. These have【C9】______stopped.
Older workers are healthier than they used to be and work is less【C10】______demanding. They are also more【C11】______to employers than prior generations. Today’s 55- to 64-year-olds -belong to the post-war baby-boomers who benefited from better education than their【C12】______.
Older workers now have a sharper【C13】______to stay in employment because of the impact of the crisis on【C14】______. In Britain, workers who rely on private pensions have been【C15】______affected by lower returns on their investment.
Many will argue older workers have done better at the【C16】______of the young. That view is wrongheaded. Young and old people are【C17】______not substitutes in the workplace. They do different types of work in different types of occupation: younger people gravitate to IT firms,【C18】______older folk tend to be employed in more traditional industries. There are a【C19】______of things that should be done to help the young jobless, but【C20】______older workers is not one of them.
【C6】
选项
A、opposed
B、limited
C、referred
D、afforded
答案
D
解析
本句所给信息“他们享有工作保障的福利”是对上文“他们比其它年龄群的人做得更好”的分析。既然job protection是年长员工相对年龄小的人更容易被留下的原因,那这些福利肯定是没有“提供给”年龄偏小的工人,故选D项afforded“提供”。
