Poverty exists because American society is an unequal one, and there are overwhelming political pressures to keep it that way. Any【C1】________to redistribute wealth and income in the United States will【C2】________be opposed by powerful middle- and upper-class interests. People can be relatively rich only if others are relatively poor, and since power is【C3】________in the hands of the rich, public policies will continue to reflect their interests rather than those of the poor.
As Herbert Gans (1973) has pointed out, poverty is actually【C4】________from the point of view of the nonpoor. Poverty【C5】________that "dirty" work gets done. If there are no poor people to scrub floors and empty bedpans (便盆) , these jobs would have to be【C6】________with high incomes before anyone would touch them. Poverty creates jobs for many of the nonpoor, such as police officers, welfare workers, pawnbrokers (典当商) , and government bureaucrats. Poverty makes life easier for the rich by providing them with cooks, gardeners, and other workers to perform basic chores while their employers enjoy more pleasurable activities. Poverty provides a market for【C7】________goods and services, such as two-day-old bread, run-down automobiles, or the advice of【C8】________physicians and lawyers. There is no【C9】________conscious "conspiracy" (阴谋) of the wealthy to keep the poor in poverty. It is just that poverty is an inevitable【C10】________of the American economic system, which the poor are politically powerless to influence or change.
A)attempt E)dubiously I) incompetent M)justifies
B) concentrated F)endowed J) inevitably N) outcome
C) criticism C) ensures K) inferior O) rewarded
D) deliberate H) functional L) invaluable
【C3】
选项
答案
B
解析
动词辨义题。分析句子结构可知,此处空格所在句子是一个由连词since引导的原因状语从句,从句的主语是power,空格前后是系动词is和介词短语in the hands of the rich,因此可以断定这里需要填入一个动词的过去分词,与is一起构成该句的系表结构。符合上述语法条件的备选词汇有三个:endowed(赋予,捐助),rewarded(回报),concentrated(集中)。结合此处文意,只有concentrated可以与power is…in the hands of the rich搭配使用,意为“权利集中在富人手里”,故选B。
