Mr. Bush told the nation's governors meeting here today that he would ask Congress to approve new work requirements but would also seek to give states the flexibility to meet the needs of people who need training or drug abuse (吸毒) treatment. Still, Mr. Bush said, "work ought to be the core of welfare reform." In an excerpt (摘录) from an advance text of his speech, Mr. Bush declares: "We are encouraged by the initial results of welfare reform, but we are not content. We ended welfare as we've known it, yet this is not a post-poverty America. Child poverty is still too high, too many families are strained and fragile (易碎的) and broken, too many Americans still have not found work. Because these needs continue, our work is not done." At least 50 percent of a state's welfare families must now participate in work and other activities aimed at self-sufficiency; Mr. Bush proposes to raise that requirement so that 70 percent must be working by 2007. Administration officials also said they hoped to close loopholes (堵塞漏洞) that render the work requirement, in some cases, largely meaningless. The administration plans to require welfare recipients (享受者) to work 40 hours week "at a job or in programs designed to help them achieve independence". Adults a are now generally required to work 30 hours a week, of which no more than 10 could be in job training or education programs. But advocates for low-income people were already starting to mobilize (动员起 来) against the plan. "It's almost welfare reform in Wonderland," said Deepak Bhargava, director of the National Campaign for Jobs and Income Support, a group seeking to make the welfare law liberal. "We're in the middle of a recession (不景气). Now is a strange we ought to toughen work requirements on poor families." time to be arguing 1. The purpose of the new welfare plan of the administration is to A. make more people participate in work B. provide poor people with job training activities C. cancel the landmark 1996 welfare law D. help poor people with drug abuse treatment 2. According to the administration plan, there will be ______ of welfare families participating in work by 2007. A. none B. 70 percent C. 30 percent D. 50 percent 3. It can be seen from the passage that the advocates for the low-income families ___ A. fully support the administration's plan B. consider it to be unreasonable to raise work requirements at the present time C. encourage welfare recipients to work 40 hours a week D. believe that poor people can support themselves without government aid 4. From the passage we know Mr. Bush ________. A. does not care about the job training of welfare people B. believes welfare reform has solved all the problems in America C. considers welfare reform to be fundamentally successful D. feels completely satisfied with the results of welfare reform 5. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE ? A. About 50% of the welfare population have achieved self-sufficiency. . Congress has agreed to the new work requirements of the administration B C. There's still poverty in America now. D. The living standards of most people will go up. Passage 2 The welfare reform bills passed by the House and reported out of the Senate Finance Committee force most of the women and children remaining on welfare off the rolls without giving them the tools they need to stand on their own feet. We have come a long way since 1968, when Lyndon Johnson called the welfare system in America "outmoded (过时的) and in need of a major change" and pressed Congress to create "a work incentive (鼓励) program, incentives for earning, day care for children..." With such reforms finally put in place a quarter century later, we have reduced the number of women and children on welfare from a peak of more than 14 million in 1994 to 5.3 million in 2001. But in the process, the character of the welfare population has fundamentally changed. In 1994 at least half the mothers (largely temporarily unemployed) and children on welfare were there for less than a year. Moving and keeping them off public assistance in a booming economy was relatively easy. ow comes the hard part: today the bulk of mothers on welfare —N perhaps most — are drug and alcohol abusers and addicts (有瘾的人), often suffering from serious mental illness and other small diseases. Most have been on welfare for several years. Moreover, women in the 1994 welfare population had an average of two children; those now on the rolls have an average of four children. The administration bill passed by the House would provide just three months for substance abuse treatment and training for these women before they could be pushed off the rolls. The Senate committee bill, only marginally better, would provide six months. These women need at least a year, perhaps two, of concentrated substance abuse treatment and literacy (识字), job and parenting skills training. With such help, and with their benefits conditioned on staying in treatment, a significant number will achieve economic self- sufficiency and become responsible parents. 6. On average, ____ women and children were moved off welfare each year from 1994 to 2001. A. half of the B. about I million C. about 9 million D. about 5 million 7. According to the passage, the key to helping women achieve economic self-sufficiency now is ________. A. to treat drug abuse B. to provide daycare for children C. to teach them how to read and write D. to increase public assistance 8. What does the writer think about the welfare reform bills passed by the House? A. He thinks they are pushing welfare women into a difficult situation. B. He regards them as effective measures. C. He thinks they provide enough time for welfare women to become independent. D. He thinks they will work well. 9. The change of the welfare population shows ____ A. welfare reform is a success as a whole B. drug abuse is doing harm to the welfare system C. welfare mothers are responsible parents D. sick women always depend on welfare 10. In 1994, many mothers and children were on welfare only for a comparatively short period because ________. A. there were fewer drug abusers B. they can easily find jobs to support themselves C. they were not burdened with many children D. they were forced to move off public assistance Part III Cloze (15 minutes) My grandparents believed you were either honest or you weren't. There was no state in 1 . They had a simple motto (格言) 2 on their living-room wall: "Life is like a field of newly fallen snow; 3 I choose to walk every step will 4 ." They didn’t have to talk about it — they demonstrated the motto by the 5 they lived. They understood instinctively that integrity (正直) means having a 6 7 the situation at standard of morality and ethics (伦理 标准 excel标准偏差excel标准偏差函数exl标准差函数国标检验抽样标准表免费下载红头文件格式标准下载 ) that is not relative hand.
