The Economist calculates that around the world almost 290 million 15- to 24-year-olds are neither working nor studying: almost a quarter of the planet’s youth. On the other hand, many of the "employed" young have only informal and【C1】________jobs. In rich countries more than c. third, on average, are on temporary【C2】________which make it hard to【C3】________skills. In poorer ones, according to the World Bank, a fifth are【C4】________family labourers or work in the informal economy.【C5】________, nearly half of the world’s young people are either【C6】________the formal economy or contributing less【C7】________than they could.
What has caused this【C8】________of joblessness? Young people have long had a raw【C9】________in tne labour market. Two things make the problem more【C10】________now. The financial crisis and its consequence had an unusually big【C11】________on them. Many employers【C12】________the newest hires first, so a【C13】________raises youth joblessness disproportionately.
Second, the emerging economies that have the largest and fastest-growing【C14】________of young people also have the【C15】________labour markets. Almost half of the world’s young people live in South Asia, the Middle East and Africa. They also have the highest【C16】________of young people out of work or in the informal sector.
In rich countries with generous welfare states this【C17】________a heavy burden on taxpayers. One estimate suggests that, in 2011, the economic loss from【C18】________young people in Europe【C19】________to $ 153 billion, or more than 1 % of GDP. And failure to employ the young not only【C20】________growth today. It also threatens it tomorrow.
【C17】
选项
A、carries
B、imposes
C、settles
D、produces
答案
B
解析
上文中提到了大量年轻人失业的问题,从generous welfare和taxpayers可看出,社会福利好的国家会给失业者提供一定的失业补助,而这些补助来源于向纳税人征收的税金,社会失业率越高,纳税人被迫缴纳的税金也越多,纳税人的经济负担就会越大,故答案选B项 “imposes”。A项carries“带,拿”;C项settles“安放,安置;安家”和D项produces“生产”均无“强加”之意,故排除。
