Young people always suffer in recessions. Employers stop【C1】______them because they are easier to sack. But in【C2】______episodes, such as the recessions of the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, older workers were also fired. This time is【C3】______. During the financial crisis in 2008, and【C4】______, they have done better than other age groups.
Why have older employees been【C5】______to young people? In some countries they benefit from job protection not【C6】______to younger workers, but that did not really help them in past recessions. What has changed is that firms now【C7】______the full costs of getting rid of older staff. In the past early-retirement schemes made it【C8】______to push grey-haired workers out of the door. These have【C9】______stopped.
Older workers are healthier than they used to be and work is less【C10】______demanding. They are also more【C11】______to employers than prior generations. Today’s 55- to 64-year-olds -belong to the post-war baby-boomers who benefited from better education than their【C12】______.
Older workers now have a sharper【C13】______to stay in employment because of the impact of the crisis on【C14】______. In Britain, workers who rely on private pensions have been【C15】______affected by lower returns on their investment.
Many will argue older workers have done better at the【C16】______of the young. That view is wrongheaded. Young and old people are【C17】______not substitutes in the workplace. They do different types of work in different types of occupation: younger people gravitate to IT firms,【C18】______older folk tend to be employed in more traditional industries. There are a【C19】______of things that should be done to help the young jobless, but【C20】______older workers is not one of them.
【C16】
选项
A、request
B、edge
C、risk
D、expense
答案
D
解析
本段第2句说到,这种观点(指本句的内容)是不正确的。第3句提到正确观点:在工作中年轻员工和年长员工并不是替换的关系。放推测本句的错误观点为:有人认为年长员工能留下的必然条件是年轻人不能留下来。因此at the______of应与substitutes为近义表达,故选D项,at the expense of意为“以……为代价”。
