6、e Less Wealthy Than Their ParentsThe cost of living in the United States is going up, notes writer Alissa Quartz. As is reported in New York Post, Quartz points to “the costs of housing, education and health care in particular. ” At the same time, a new study, the report of which is called “The Fadi

7、ng American Dream” found that half of Americans born in the 1980s are falling behind their parents economically. These findings show that many younger adults are experiencing “downward mobility. ” In other words, they are not doing as well economically as their parents were at the same age. The idea

8、 of downward mobility is especially troubling for Americans, writes Robert Samuelson in The Washington Post. He says most U. S. citizens believe that, over time, the amount of money they earn will rise and life will get easier. Alissa Quartz wrote a book about the financial difficulties of Americans

9、. In the book, Quartz tells about teachers who are struggling to pay for regular costs. One high school teacher drives for ride sharing service Uber at night to earn more money. He corrects students papers between riders. A college professor turned to government assistance to feed her child and pay

10、for a doctor. Quartz says even lawyers increasingly cannot earn an income that enables them to meet their needs. The problem of decreasing incomes in their field is made worse by debt they may have from law school. Quartz and the economists who studied these issues say many things have led to lower

11、incomes and downward mobility. The economic recession(衰退) of 2007 to 2009 is partly to blame, they say. Modern technology also plays a part. Quartz says robots threaten to reduce the earnings of health care workers, reporters, and people who work at supermarkets, drug stores and tax preparation serv

12、ices. In The Washington Post, Robert Samuelson noted that poor schools, a weak housing industry and too many government rules are also to blame. With all these things, and more, partly responsible, what is the solution? These experts say the answer is complex. But all point to one issue that needs t

13、o be examined: economic inequality. Quartz writes that while America is one of the richest countries in the world, it also has one of the biggest divides between the wealthy and the poor. The researchers in “The Fading American Dream” study make a similar observation. They say raising GDP will not s

14、ignificantly improve the economic situation of most Americans. A higher GDP may help only those who are already doing well. Instead, the economists say, the United States could try to repeat something Americans born in the 1940s experienced. As those children grew up, they almost all benefited from

15、a better economy. 【文章大意】這是一篇議論文。文章指出美國現(xiàn)在年輕人的經(jīng)濟(jì)條件遠(yuǎn)比不上他們父母在他們這個(gè)年紀(jì)時(shí)的經(jīng)濟(jì)狀況。文中提出了老師在經(jīng)濟(jì)上的困難作為例子, 而造成這一情況的原因非常復(fù)雜, GDP的上升只不過對于那些情況已經(jīng)很好的人有所幫助而已。經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家指出, 美國可以效仿40年代美國人所經(jīng)歷的事, 或許可以使下一代獲利。1. The author mentions two reports in Paragraph 1 in order to _. A. explain the results of two researchesB. introduce his opini

16、ons about the issueC. attract readers attention to health careD. lead to the topic of downward mobility【解析】選D。推理判斷題。文章第一段提出了兩個(gè)報(bào)告, 在紐約郵報(bào)的報(bào)告中指出在住房、教育、醫(yī)療等方面的花費(fèi)較多, 在“消逝的美國夢”這一報(bào)告中指出約有五成的80后美國人在經(jīng)濟(jì)上不如他們的父母。文章第一段提出這兩個(gè)研究作為本文的論點(diǎn), 用以引出后文的論據(jù)。文中第二段These findings show that many younger adults are experiencing “do

17、wnward mobility. ”指代的第一段提到的兩個(gè)報(bào)告, 而這兩個(gè)報(bào)告是關(guān)于“downward mobility”, 故D項(xiàng)正確。2. Whats the main idea of Paragraph 4? A. The causes of downward mobility. B. The influences of government rules. C. The negative effects of modern technology. D. The results of economic recession in America. 【解析】選A。主旨大意題。該段首先提出了兩個(gè)

18、例子, 一是大學(xué)教授要申請政府補(bǔ)助來養(yǎng)小孩、看醫(yī)生, 二是一些律師也要還在法律學(xué)校時(shí)的賬單。Quartz和一些研究此現(xiàn)象的經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家指出引發(fā)低收入和經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退的原因是非常復(fù)雜的, 接著又進(jìn)行舉例, 如2007-2009年的經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退, 現(xiàn)代科技的發(fā)展可能會減少某些工作人員的收入。華盛頓郵報(bào)中, 羅伯特薩繆爾森指出, 糟糕的學(xué)校、疲軟的房地產(chǎn)業(yè)以及太多的政府規(guī)定也是引發(fā)低收入和經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退的原因。所以本段主要是分析“向下流動”的原因。故A項(xiàng)正確。3. The author indicates in this passage that _. A. raising GDP will greatly help

19、the poorB. American economy has a bright futureC. young Americans will repeat their parents experienceD. its necessary to narrow the gap between the rich and the poor【解析】選D。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。文中最后一段提到“A higher GDP may help only those who are already doing well. ” GDP的增長只會有利于那些情況還不錯(cuò)的人, 不會幫助窮人, 故A項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。文中第一段提到 “The

20、Fading American Dream”這一報(bào)告, 已經(jīng)是“消逝的美國夢”, 美國經(jīng)濟(jì)未來堪憂, 故B項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。文中第二段提到“they are not doing as well economically as their parents were at the same age. ”現(xiàn)在的美國人無法達(dá)到他們父母在這個(gè)年紀(jì)時(shí)取得的經(jīng)濟(jì)成就, 故C項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。文中第五段提到“what is the solution? These experts say the answer is complex. But all point to one issue that needs to be exami

21、ned: economic inequality. ”解決經(jīng)濟(jì)問題的答案雖然很復(fù)雜, 但是有一項(xiàng)是必須要解決的, 即貧富差距。故D項(xiàng)正確。BAbout six years ago I was going through a tough time, trying to work two jobs to afford my rent.
