Americans’ pride and faith of their economic system,【C1】________that it provides opportunities for all citizens to have good lives, are【C2】________by the【C3】________that poverty persists in many parts of the country.
Government anti-poverty efforts have made some progress but have not eradicated the problem. 【C4】________, periods of strong economic growth, which bring more jobs and higher wages, have【C5】________poverty but have not【C6】________it entirely.
The federal government【C7】________poverty line as a minimum【C8】________of income【C9】________for basic maintenance of a family of four. This amount may fluctuate【C10】________the cost of living and the location of the family. In 1998, a family of four with an annual income below $16,530 was classified【C11】________living in poverty.
The percentage of people living below poverty line dropped from 22.4 percent in 1959 to 11.4 percent in 1978. But【C12】________, it has fluctuated in a fairly narrow range. In 1998, it stood at 12.7 percent.
【C13】________, the overall figures mask much more severe pockets of poverty. In 1998, more than one-quarter of all African-Americans lived in poverty; though【C14】________high, that figure did represent an improvement from 1979 when 31 percent of blacks were officially classified as poor.
There are【C15】________estimations on the accuracy of official poverty figures. Some analysts have suggested that the official poverty figures【C16】________the real【C17】________of poverty because they measure only cash income and exclude certain government assistance programs such as Food Stamps. Others point out, however, that these programs【C18】________cover all of a family’s food or health care needs.【C19】________others point out that people at the poverty line sometimes receive cash income from【C20】________work and in the underground sector of economy which is never recorded in official statistics.
【C2】
选项
A、backed
B、sustained
C、rejected
D、retarded
答案
C
解析
本填空也是选择动词,分析填空前后的原文信息,其主语就是前文的Americans’ pride and faith of their economic system,其后的原文信息为:that poverty persists in many parts of the country (贫困在这个国家的许多地方都存在)。这样我们发现本填空前后的原文信息是矛盾的,我们所要选择的动词需要表现出这种矛盾关系,A项backed(支持)和B项sustained(保持)都不合适,D项retarded更多表示的是“阻碍,减缓”,意思与此处并不十分匹配,只有C项rejected(拒绝,否决,推翻)最为合理,即:美国人对其经济制度的骄傲和信仰被这个国家无所不在的贫困现象给推翻了。
