Last year‘s economy should have won the Oscar for the best picture.
growth in gross domestic product was 4.1 percents; profits soared; exports ___1___
flourished; and inflation stayed around 3 percent for the third year. Though ___2___
why so many Americans give the picture a lousy B rating？ The answer is
jobs. The microeconomic situation was good， and the microeconomic ___3___
numbers were not. Yes， 3 million new jobs were there， but not enough of them
were temporary， good jobs paying enough to support a family. Job ___4___
insecurity was rampant（猖獗的）。 Even as they announced higher sales and
profits， corporations acted as if they were in a tailspin， cutting 516，069 jobs
in 1994 alone， almost as much as in the recession year of 1991. ___5___
Yes， unemployment went down. But over 1 million workers were so
couraged that they left the labor force. More than 6 million who wanted ___6___
fulltime job were only partially employed; and another large group was either
unqualified or sheltered behind the euphemism of self-employment. We lost
a million good manufacturing jobs between 1990 and 1995， continuing the
trend the blue-collar work force has been reduced from about 30 percent in ___7___
the 1950s to about half that today. White-collar workers found out they are ___8___
no longer immue. For the first time， they were let go in numbers virtually
equal to those for blue-collar workers. Many resorted in temporary work ___9___
with lower pay， fewer benefits but less status. ___10___
All that in a country where people meet for the first time would say ，
“what do you do？”
參考答案及解析：
1. percents -%26gt; percent
用percent表示百分數時，只需用基數詞加上單數percent即可。
2. Though -%26gt; But
3. and -%26gt; but
4. temporary -%26gt; permanent
根據句意：盡管有300萬個新的工作職位，但長久的工作崗位是不足夠的。temporary意為“臨時的，暫時的”，permanent意為“永久的，固定的”，根據but和not enough可知應該是沒有足夠的長久工作崗位。
5. much -%26gt; many
此處的many修飾前面的jobs，相當于almost as many （jobs） as in the recession year of 1991。由于job是可數名詞，故應該用many修飾。
6. couraged -%26gt; discouraged
根據上下文，短期的工作使工人失望，所以應該使用discouraged。
7. trend后加that
此處trend后是一個完整的句子，根據意思這句話是解釋說明trend的同位語從句，故要加上引導詞that。注：同位語從句的that不能省略。
8. are -%26gt; were
根據整篇文章的時態和主句的謂語動詞found out可知此處要用過去時。
9. in -%26gt; to
eesort to是固定搭配，意為“求助于…。，采取”。
10. but -%26gt; and
此句句意為“很多人都會做工資少、福利少和低職位的臨時工”。 此處lower pay， fewer benefits 和less status都屬于同級，因此應該是并列關系而不是轉折關系。
