The United States operates under a federal system of government. Under the federal system, power is divided between the central government and the states. The central government is given specific powers. These powers are named in the Constitution. Powers that are not assigned to the central government in the Constitution belong to the states.
The central government can pass laws that affect trade between states. The central government can also make treaties with foreign countries. It has the power to print money. The Constitution gives the central government these powers. These powers belong to the central government only. However, the states have many powers that the central government cannot control. For example, a state is allowed to tax people who live and work in the state. The central government cannot put a limit on the amount of money that a state taxes its people.
Many people feel that the federal system has many good points. One good point is that it restrains the power of the central government. The central government cannot become too powerful. Another good point is that the central government makes sure that the bigger states don’t become too powerful. Under the Constitution, all states are treated equally. The laws of the central government do not favour one state over another.
Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.
16. What does the passage mainly talk about?
17. What is one of the powers of the state governments, according to the passage?
18. According to the passage, what is a good point about the federal system?
选项
A、The central government cannot be too powerful.
B、Bigger states have more power than smaller ones.
C、The powers are fairly divided up between states.
D、The states and the central government have equal powers.
答案
A
解析
选项中重复出现的central government,states以及more power,powers are fairly divided和equalpowers表明,本题涉及中央政府和各州的权力分配问题。短文中提到联邦制度有很多优点(good points),接着提到其中一点(one good point)是这一制度限制中央政府的权力,中央政府的权力不能过大(the centralgovernment cannot become too powerful),A)是短文中细节的再现,故为答案。
