Unlike downturns past,European nations have kept unemployment figures low relative to the U.S. this time around because Europe’s labor markets have【C1】______to depend less on allowances than government schemes to put them back to work quickly. What’s more,【C2】______focusing solely on jumpstarting their economies【C3】______stimulus(刺激), as the U.S. has, Northern Europe has thrown its【C4】______at keeping people at work--by any means【C5】______.
In the countries of northern Europe, that has【C6】______large and successful retraining schemes to get laid-off workers back into jobs quickly.【C7】______in nations like Germany, jobs have also been【C8】______by cutting hours. Rather than laying off workers, a number of European companies have chosen to cut【C9】______schedules by a third or more as part of larger government schemes to【C10】______mass layoffs. Companies save money on salaries【C11】______the government picks up the cost of the pay cuts, including payroll(工资总额)taxes. It’s successful, but it【C12】______to the national debt and also has the【C13】______to twist European labor markets.
What’s more, economists note, European unemployment【C14】______tend to lag behind those of the U.S.-- meaning that while American unemployment will probably【C15】______this year, the big European economies will【C16】______numbers continue to rise into the years ahead.
All these emphasize the fact【C17】______while Northern Europe has handled the crisis【C18】______well up to now, the future is【C19】______bright. Indeed, economists say that Europe’s usual slower-growth, higher-unemployment trend line will【C20】______in the years ahead.
【C13】
选项
A、potential
B、expectation
C、prospect
D、desire
答案
A
解析
句子层面考查名词的含义。本句说的是前面讲到的缩短工作时间以维持就业的举措可能带来的弊端,因而此处填:potential(潜在可能性)。expectation“期望”,prospect“前景”,desire“欲望;渴望”放在原文中均说不通。
