Q10:TTGWD11-Q30:

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.

答案是C 我看不懂啊

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

题目说unemployed people have no incentive to accept the jobs

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

如果目前有工作的人再去找新的工作，那么就会找到更高收入的工作，削弱了原来人们情愿拿政府补助而不去找工作的结论

尽管supplement提供的工资低，但是能够提供找到高工资工作的oppotunity

所以说把工资低的都留给没工作的人了 麻烦能翻译一下原体么？有点绕我觉得 万分感谢感谢哦

jian880821

随便大概翻译一下，翻得不好请见谅……

在Ledland，unemployed adults接受政府补助。为了减少失业，政府提出提供失业的人工作，但是这些工作低于补助。但是，如果这些人找不到收入可观的工作，这种supplement相对于补助而言不会增加失业成年人的工资。所以，这些人没有fianancial incentive去接受那些工作

queenie0308

所以说 这些人与其去工作 还不如得到补助 然后题目问weaken 那和C有什么关系呢？？谢谢哦
