#考研英语#每日一题

Most people who lose their jobs aren’t out of work for long, but for those who don’t have savings, even a few months on benefits that are a fraction of their normal salary mean racking up debt that can leave long-term scars. Some kind of time-limited basic income for newly redundant people could bridge that gap, and give people a chance to retrain; it could be useful too in softening the transition to net zero, offering people who lose jobs in dying fossil-fuel industries time to rethink their futures. The possibilities are exciting, but only if we let go of the utopian theory and focus relentlessly on what actually works.

思考题:
The author holds __ views on universal basic income.
A.skeptical
B.favourable
C.indifferent

savings:存款
fraction:部分
rack up sth: 累计,聚集,累积
long-term scars:伤疤
redundant people:被淘汰人员
bridge that gap:弥补空隙

第一句:

Most peoplewho lose their jobsaren’t out of workfor long, but for those who don’t have savings,even a few months on benefitsthat are a fraction of their normal salarymean racking up debtthat can leave long-term scars.

参考译文:

大多数人的失业不会是长期的,但对于那些没有储蓄的人来说,即使是几个月依赖救济——只是他们正常工资的一小部分——都意味着积累债务,并可能会留下长期的“伤疤”。


第二句:

Some kind of time-limited basic incomefor newly redundant peoplecould bridge that gap, and give people a chance to retrain;//it could be useful tooin softening the transition to net zero, offering peoplewho lose jobs in dying fossil-fuel industriestime to rethink their futures.

参考译文:

为新失业的人提供某种有时限的基本收入可以弥合这一差距,并给人们一个再培训的机会;它也可能有助于缓和向净零的过渡,让那些在垂死的化石燃料行业失去工作的人有时间重新思考未来。


第三句:

The possibilities are exciting,but only if we let go of the utopian theory and focus relentlessly on what actually works.

参考译文:

可能性令人兴奋,但前提是我们放弃乌托邦理论,坚持不懈地专注于实际有效的做法。


The author holds __ views on universal basic income.
作者对普遍基本收入持有_____观点。


这个题干有一定的迷惑性!


问题是问:

universal 普遍的,也就是人人都有的,
但是原文说的是:


为新失业的人提供某种有时限的基本收入可以弥合这一差距。


也就是有选择性的给福利是有好处的!


人人给福利就不一定好了!


所以答案选:


A. skeptical
(质疑的)
A选项正确。


B. favourable
(赞成的)
B选项错误。


C. indifferent
(漠不关心的)
C选项错误。


D. neutral
(中立的)
D选项错误。
