Low levels of literacy and numeracy have a damaging impact on almost every aspect of adult life, according to a survey published yesterday, which offers evidence of a developing underclass. Tests and interviews with hundreds of people born in a single week in 1958【C1】______illustrated the handicap of educational underachievement. The effects were seen in unemployment, low incomes, depression and social【C2】______.
Those who left school at 16 with poor basic skills had been employed for up to four years less than good readers at the time they reached 37. Professor John Bynner, of City University, who【C3】______out the research, said that today’s【C4】______people would face even greater problems because the supply of manual jobs had【C5】______up. Poor readers were twice as likely to be on a low【C6】______and four times as likely to live in a household where neither partner worked. Women in this position were five times as likely to be classified as【C7】______, while both sexes tended to feel they had no control over their lives, and to be【C8】______of others. Those with low literacy and numeracy skills were seldom involved in any【C9】______organization and much less likely than others to have【C10】______in a general election. There had been no improvement in the level of interviewees since the sample was surveyed at the age of 21.
A)activity I)inactivity
B)carried J)respectful
C)wage K)unqualified
D)dried L)depressed
E)kept M)doubtful
F)vividly N)idle
G)clearly O)voted
H)community
【C2】
选项
答案
I
解析
此处应填名词。空前的并列连词and及形容词social提示所填词应为名词,与空前的unemployment,lowincomes,depression并列。本句中的unemployment,low incomes,depression都是上句中出现的educational underachievement造成的不良后果,与之对应,social【C2】______也应是后果之一,故所填词用在句中应表达与unemployment,low incomes,depression类似的消极含义,备选名词中只有I)inactivity“休止状态”符合要求,故为答案。
