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.

选项
A、unique
B、controversial
C、wrong
D、misleading
答案
B
解析
本填空考查形容词,但需要考生把握的是本填空所在的句子处于段首,实际上就是本段落的总述句,即本题可以利用总分结构对照法可以解出答案。所以我们首先需要定位分述部分,这个分述结构明显说明了有三派意见,再加上原文线索however,说明这三派的观点是相反的,而本填空待选的形容词就是对这个现象的总结,直接选出答案为B项controversial(矛盾的)。
