The conception of poverty and what to【1】about it have changed over the decades. Under Social Darwinism the lazy and the【2】were supposed to be at the bottom of the economic ladder as【3】of the "law of survival of the fittest". Society was【4】as a network of self-sufficient families which provided for their own.【5】persons outside a household (orphans, the【6】elderly, and the crippled ) were provided outdoor relief grudgingly and as a temporary expedient (权宜之计). Although it was【7】that "the poor will always be with us", the individual was expected to improve himself【8】acts of his own will. Charity was thought to be the【9】of idleness. By keeping wages low, laborers would be【10】to work harder.
At about the turn of the century, the beginning of concern about natural【11】brought uneasiness about the possible spread of beggary. There was a potentially dangerous class in【12】of disease and disorder. The "poor" were【13】as different from "paupers" Paupers were individuals well【14】to being on the low end of the socioeconomic【15】Without shame or bitterness, they would not seek independence and a "【16】" life. For the mountaineers, the subsistence dwellers, and some slum dwellers, the lack of wealth,【17】has been argued, reflects a preference not to pay the psychological costs of the struggle for fiches or of adopting the middle class work ethic of striving. In【18】, the worthy poor struggled to【19】their lot against circumstances beyond their control: low wages, sickness, industrial【20】, widowhood (孀居) and so on.
选项
A、nurse
B、evil
C、patient
D、ward
答案
A
解析
此题主要是区别这四个名词的含义。该句用了比喻手法,.nurse常以the nurse of形式出现,意为“……的保护者,促使成长的因素,起源,发祥地”,即将“慈善”看成是促成“懒惰”的因素。故选A。
