In 1950, the US had fewer working hours than any other【3】country. Today, it【4】every country but Japan, where industrial employees log 2,155 hours a year compared【5】1,951 in the US and 1,603【6】West employees. Between 1969 and 1989, employed American【7】an average of 138 hours to their yearly work schedules. The work-week【8】at about 40 hours, but people are working more weeks each year.【9】, paid time off — holidays, vacations, sick leave —【10】15 percent in the 1990s.

Cost-cutting layoffs in the 1980s【13】the professional and managerial ranks, leaving fewer people to get the job done. In lower-paid occupations,【14】wages have been reduced, workers have added hours【15】overtime or extra jobs to【16】their living standard.

选项
A、because
B、though
C、as
D、where
答案
D
解析
结构衔接题。此处需要一个引导定语从句的先行词。只有[C]as和[D]where有此功能。但此处指代“低薪行业”,[D]where更为合适。where引导定语从句,修饰occupations,意为“在那些薪水被削减了的行业…”。
