Americans’ pride and faith of their economic system,【C1】________that it provides opportunities for all citizens to have good lives, are【C2】________by the【C3】________that poverty persists in many parts of the country.
Government anti-poverty efforts have made some progress but have not eradicated the problem. 【C4】________, periods of strong economic growth, which bring more jobs and higher wages, have【C5】________poverty but have not【C6】________it entirely.
The federal government【C7】________poverty line as a minimum【C8】________of income【C9】________for basic maintenance of a family of four. This amount may fluctuate【C10】________the cost of living and the location of the family. In 1998, a family of four with an annual income below $16,530 was classified【C11】________living in poverty.
The percentage of people living below poverty line dropped from 22.4 percent in 1959 to 11.4 percent in 1978. But【C12】________, it has fluctuated in a fairly narrow range. In 1998, it stood at 12.7 percent.
【C13】________, the overall figures mask much more severe pockets of poverty. In 1998, more than one-quarter of all African-Americans lived in poverty; though【C14】________high, that figure did represent an improvement from 1979 when 31 percent of blacks were officially classified as poor.
There are【C15】________estimations on the accuracy of official poverty figures. Some analysts have suggested that the official poverty figures【C16】________the real【C17】________of poverty because they measure only cash income and exclude certain government assistance programs such as Food Stamps. Others point out, however, that these programs【C18】________cover all of a family’s food or health care needs.【C19】________others point out that people at the poverty line sometimes receive cash income from【C20】________work and in the underground sector of economy which is never recorded in official statistics.
【C17】
选项
A、extent
B、extension
C、range
D、situation
答案
A
解析
本填空考查名词,并且与________of poverty组成所属关系的名词词组做宾语。其实这个名词在某种程度上与后面的因果关系句子也是有关系的,因为后面的原文信息为because they measure only cash income and exclude certain government assistance programs such as Food Stamps. 这里有两个关键线索,一是主语they,指代the official poverty figures,一是动词measure(测量,测算),与本填空组成的宾语的动词overstate,都表述“测算和测量”的概念,基于这些提示线索,四个选项中B项extension(扩张,延伸)和D项situation(局势)就可以排除了;C项range表示平面的“范围”等,虽然大体意思对,但用法不合适;最佳选项为A项extent,表示的是程度上的“范围,广度,程度”,在这里构成extent of poverty,即“贫困的范围和程度”。
