The US president has said the time has come for a review on the US immigration system. He made his case at a high school in Las Vegas, Nevada, [1]a day after a group of senators outlined a framework for reform. The White House and senators devise a path to citizenship for many of an estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants in the US. He noted that the current system was "out of date and badly broken". The president’s case for an immigration reform reflects a plan he rolled out three years ago, though that did not go far. The president now backs the Senate plan including making illegal immigrants pay taxes and fines, and sending them to the back of the queue before they can become American citizens. [2]After eight years, individuals would be allowed to become legal permanent residents and would eventually become citizens five years later, according to his scheme three years ago.
1. What do we learn about the immigration reform from the news report?
2. How long would it take for illegal immigrants to gain citizenship?
选项 A、It was proposed by a group of senators.
B、The US president had carried out the reform.
C、Illegal immigrants would soon be given citizenship.
D、The reform failed to improve the current system.
答案A
解析 新闻开头提到，美国总统表示，对美国移民制度进行检讨的时机已经成熟。接着说他在拉斯维加斯的一 所高中谈到了这一事件，而前一天参议员拟定了(outlined)改革的框架。由此可知A“移民改革是参议员提出的”正确。移民改革在奥巴马三年前的计划中有所反映，但did not go far表明并未实施，故B“奥巴马已实施改革”不对。根据三年前的蓝图，非法移民成为合法永久居民要八年，最终成为公民还须再等五年，C“非法移民很快会获取公民身份”与之不符。移民改革还未实施，故D“改革没有改善现在的系统”不正确。
