Sir,
You stated on February 13th that New Mexico has "few natural resources"___D__In 1991 New Mexico ranked fourth in the United States in production of natural gas, seventh in oil and tenth in non-fuel minerals【P1】______Non-fuel minerals contributed about $1 billion and coal $509 million.
Taxes from production of fuels and minerals, and lease payments on state lands have been set aside by legislative acts to endow two permanent funds worth about % 5. 65 billion.【P2】______In addition, during fiscal year 1991, payments to New Mexico from taxes on federal lands were $ 108 million, all earmarked for public education.
【P3】______About $ 566 million came from taxes and permanent-fund earnings attributable to oil and gas production.【P4】______Tourism is an important industry in New Mexico, yet its economic impact on the public sector is dwarfed by that of mineral production.
New Mexico came through the recent recession in much better shape than most other states. It does not have a deficit.【P5】______States that rely primarily on a sales tax or on an income tax have big problems during economic downturns. Income growth per head in New Mexico averaged 6. 1/00 in the year to October 1992-one of the fastest growth rates in the United States.
Example:
Charles Chapin
A This is in large due to its broadly based tax structure.
B New Mexico’s extractive mineral industries contribute about a third of the state’s $1.9 billion general-fund income in fiscal year 1991.
C However, the extractive mineral industry in New Mexico is one of the state’s strongest economic forces.
D During fiscal year 1992 New Mexico raised permanent funds worth about $6. 1 billion.
E The combined value of oil and gas production was $2. 8 billion.
F Some 16, 000 employees work in the extractive industries and their wages are among the highest of any major industry.
G The $39 million earned by these funds in 1991 was used to finance education and other public services.
【P4】
选项
答案
F
解析
空白部分之后说旅游业对公众的利益小于矿产生产类,那么前面肯定说矿产类对公众的好处。选项F讲的是从事矿产类的高就业率和高工资,当然是对公众的好处了。
