Poverty exists because our society is an unequal one ,and there are extremely strong and p

owerful political pressures to keep it that way. Any attempt to redistribute wealth and income in the United States will inevitably be opposed by powerful middle and upper class interests. People can be relatively rich only if others are relatively poor, and since power is concentrated in the hands of the rich, public policies will continue to reflect their interests rather than those of the poor.

As Herbert Gans (1973) has pointed out, poverty is actually functional from the point of view of the non-poor. Poverty ensures that" dirty" work gets done. If there were, no poor people to scrub floors and empty waste, these jobs would have to be rewarded with high incomes before anyone would touch them. Poverty creates jobs for many of the non-poor, such as police officers, welfare workers, pawnbrokers, and government bureaucrats. Poverty makes life easier for the rich by providing them with cooks, gardeners, and other workers to perform. basic chores while their employers enjoy more, pleasurable activities. Poverty provides a market for inferior goods and services, such as day-old bread, run-down automobiles, or the advice of incompetent physicians and lawyers. Poverty makes middle-class values seem acceptable. To the middle class, the fate of the poor — who are supposed to lack the virtues of thrift, honesty, and a taste for hard work — only confirms the desirability of qualities the poor are thought to lack. Poverty also provides a group that can be made to absorb the costs of change. For example, the poor suffer the main part or force of unemployment caused by automaton, and it is their homes, not those of the wealthy, that are demolished when a route has to be found for a new highway. There is no intentional, conscious "secret plan" of the wealthy to keep the poor in poverty. It is just that poverty is an inevitable outcome of the American economic system; which the poor are politically powerless to influence change.

Poverty exists in American society because______.

A．the wealthy find it hard to change it

B．the great majority of the non-poor are totally not concerned about it

C．the rich think they are powerless to do anything about it

D．the poor lack such desirable qualities as honesty

y people. Everyone has experienced at same time that utter sense of isolation that comes over you when you are at a party or in an audience at a lecture. It suddenly seems to you as if everybody knows everybody else, everybody is sure of himself？ everybody that is, except you.

There are no easy solutions. Your first day at work, or at a new school or university, is atypical situation in which you are likely to feel lonely.

第6题

听力原文：W: There are too many private cars on the road now, which causes traffic congesti

on and also pollution. I think the way to solve the problem is to improve our public transport--more buses, more railways, more shared taxis. Don't you think so？

M: Well, you're obviously not aware the government is spending money on some forms of public transport. For example, some train services have been improved. But most people want to use their cars, so the government needs to spend most money on improving the roads.

W: Why not make people who use the roads pay a bit more to discourage people from using their cars？

M: I really can't agree with you there. It just isn't fair to make driving something that only rich people can afford. Many people need to use their cars and they're dependent on them, particularly those in the country.

W: Can we do something to make people stop using their cars？

M: In a modem society you just can't do so. The whole economy would collapse.

W: So your opinion is...

M: To improve roads will help people get to work faster, so people spend less time in their cars and of course this therefore causes less pollution. That's the only realistic answer.

(23)

A．Too many private cars.

B．Too many buses.

C．Too many trains.

D．To many taxis.
