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.
【C5】
选项
A、added
B、aggravated
C、reduced
D、abolished
答案
C
解析
本题考查动词,利用对应成分分析法可以比较容易地定位出待选动词在原文中的对应提示线索:首先本填空所在的句子与前文的句子为并列逻辑关系,两句话所表达的意思基本一样并且连结构都基本对等,所以很容易定位出本填空动词所要表达的意思与前句中的have made some progress基本一样,再加上本动词的宾语为poverty,四个选项中首先可以排除A项added(增加)和B项aggravated(使加重);主要在C项reduced(减少)和D项abolished(消除,废除)之间选择,显然不能选择D项abolished(消除,废除)。如果poverty已经被消除,那文章就无法继续写下去了,所以最佳答案为C项reduced(减少)。
