????Q10:TTGWD11-Q30: C

Editorial: In Ledland, unemployed adults receive government assistance. To reduce unemployment, the government proposes to supplement the income of those who accept jobs that pay less than government assistance, thus enabling employers to hire workers cheaply. However, the supplement will not raise any worker’s income above what government assistance would provide if he or she were not gainfully employed. Therefore, unemployed people will have no financial incentive to accept jobs that would entitle them to the supplement.

Which of the following, if true about Ledland, most seriously weakens the argument of the editorial?

A. The government collects no taxes on assistance it provides to unemployed individuals and their families.

B. Neighboring countries with laws that mandate the minimum wage an employer must pay an employee have higher unemployment rates than Ledland currently has.

C. People who are employed and look for a new job tend to get higher-paying jobs than job seekers who are unemployed.

D. The yearly amount unemployed people receive from government assistance is less than the yearly income that the government defines as the poverty level.

E. People sometimes accept jobs that pay relatively little simply because they enjoy the work.

题干中说“the supplement will not raise any worker’s income above what government assistance would provide if he or she were not gainfully employed.”也就是给了有工作人supplement之后的income不超过给没工作人的assistance。。。是怎么个意思。那不就是说还不如不工作么？？求解释啊！！！！！！！！！不能忍了。。。

政府会提供补助去补充薪水低于assistance的部分，但是不会超过assistance
所以对于这部分人来说，从financial上讲，工作不工作没有区别这是作者的观点

C选项从long term来讲，虽然短期没区别，但是长期的话增加工作经验还是可以让长期薪水提高，所以是削弱

Hope it helps

哦原来是这样。也就是说现在虽然低，但是那些现在有工作的人以后可能会找到薪酬更多的工作，那就能超过assistance了？谢谢。有点明白了。

长期对工人还是有利的
所以他们还是会选择被雇佣
虽然短期内工作不工作领得薪水都一样
