Last year’s economy should have won the Oscar for
the best picture. Growth in gross domestic product was
4.1 percents; profits soared; exports flourished; and 【M1】______
inflation stayed around 3 percent for the third year.
Though why so many Americans give the picture a lousy 【M2】______
rating? The answer is jobs. The macroeconomic situation
was good, and the microeconomic numbers were not. 【M3】______
Yes, 3 million new jobs were there, but not enough
of them were temporary, good jobs paying enough to 【M4】______
support a family. Job security was rampant (猖獗的). 【M5】______
Even as they announced higher sales and profits,
corporations acted as if they were in a tailspin, cutting
516,069 jobs in 1994 alone, almost as much as in the 【M6】______
recession year of 1991.
Yet, unemployment went down. But over 1 million
workers were so encouraged that they left the labor 【M7】______
force. More than 6 million who wanted full-time job
were only partially employed; and another large group
was either unqualified or sheltered behind the euphemism
of self-employment. We lost a million good manufacturing
jobs between 1990 and 1995, continuing the trend has 【M8】______
reduced the blue-collar work force from about 30 percent
in the 1950s to about half that today. White-collar workers
found out they are no longer immune. For the fast time, 【M9】______
they are let go in numbers virtually equal to those for
blue-collar workers. Many resorted to temporary work with
lower pay, fewer benefits but less status. 【M10】______
All that in a country where people meet for the first
time would say, “What do you do?”
【M7】
选项
答案
encouraged改成discouraged
解析
上下文语义矛盾。从上下文可知,短期工作使工人失望,所以是discouraged。
