【F1】
The value which society places on work has traditionally been closely associated with the value of individualism and as a result it has had negative effects on the development of social security.
It has meant that in the first place the amount of benefits must be small lest people’ s willingness to work and support themselves suffers. Even today with flat rate and earnings-related benefits, the total amount of the benefit must always be smaller than the person’s wages for fear of malingering."The purpose of social security," said Huntford referring to Sweden’s comparatively generous benefits, "is to dispel need without crossing the threshold of prosperity." Second, social security benefits are granted under conditions designed to reduce the likelihood of even the boldest of spirits attempting to live on the State rather than work. Many of the rules surrounding the payment of unemployment or supplementary benefit are for this purpose. Third, the value placed on work is manifested in a more positive way as in the case of disability.【F2】
People suffering from accidents incurred at work or from occupational diseases receive preferential treatment by the social security service compared with those suffering from civil accidents and ordinary illnesses.
Yet, the stranglehold which work has had on the social security service has been increasingly loosened over the years. The provision of family allowances, family income supplements, the slight liberalization of the wages stop are some of the manifestations of this trend.【F3】
Similarly, the preferential treatment given to occupational disability by the social security service has been increasingly questioned with the demands for the upgrading of benefits for the other types of disability.
It is felt that in contemporary industrial societies the distinction between occupational and non-occupational disability is artificial for many non-occupational forms of disability have an industrial origin even if they do not occur directly in the workplace.【F4】
There is also the additional reason which we mentioned in the argument for one benefit for all one-parent families, that a modern social security service must concentrate on meeting needs irrespective of the cause behind such needs.
The relationship between social security and work is not all a one-way affair.【F5】
It is true that until very recently the general view was that social security "represented a type of luxury and was essentially anti-economic." It was seen as merely government expenditure for the needy.
As we saw, however, redundancy payments and earnings-related unemployment benefits have been used with some success by employers and the government to reduce workers’ opposition towards loss of their jobs.

选项
答案
传统上,社会赋予工作的价值一直与个人主义价值紧密相连。因此,这对社会保障的发展产生了负面的影响。
解析
这是一篇关于社会保障的文章,作者首先论述了工作价值观念对社会保障事业的束缚,接着指出现在这种束缚有所松懈,并指出社会保障反过来对工作价值产生了影响。第一段:论述社会赋予工作的价值对社会保障发展的负面影响:首先,保障金数额小于工资额;其次,保障金发放是有条件的,目的是为了减少不通过工作自食其力的人;再次,因公受伤或患职业病的人享有保障优待。第二段:转折指出,近年来工作对社会保障的束缚日益松懈。该段具体谈到了两个方面:对非工伤的救济放宽限制和对单亲家庭予以救济。第三段:指出社会保障和工作之间的关系是双向的,社会保障也被当作一种裁员的辅助手段来使用。
