Of all the employed workers in the United States, 12.5 million are part of a temporary workforce. The United States Bureau of Labor Statistics counts 9.2 percent of workers as those who have【C1】________they term "alternative employment arrangements." The government predicts that temporary staffing agencies【C2】________experience growth of 49 percent by the end of next year If numbers increase at the rate【C3】________, these companies will add 1.9 million new jobs by then. That’s more than any【C4】________industry.
Temporary workers were the first ones to be affected by the recent economic recession, but they are【C5】________to be the first to regain positions as the economy picks up and companies work to rebuild. Employers use temporary workers as a resource because【C6】________offer flexibility and come at a low cost. Many temporaries are categorized as "independent contractors" instead of employees, 【C7】________allows the employer to avoid【C8】________certain taxes. Because they are not required to offer benefits to temporary workers, companies can save a great deal of money by hiring temps. Usually, temporary workers can qualify【C9】________benefits if they work for a staffing company for a certain length of time. Most temps, however, do not continue with one company long【C10】________to qualify for them because they regard the position as a step on the ladder to a【C11】________position later.
According to Richard Wahlquist, president of the American Staffing Association, 75【C12】________ of temporary workers hope for transition out of the temporary staffing category【C13】________a period of time. Wahlquist finds that temporary workers spend about 1I weeks on various assignments before their【C14】________out of the temporary workforce. Many use temporary positions to gain experience and skills【C15】________they move on to better jobs. Wahquist says that the temp workforce as a whole turns【C16】________400 percent each year.
Tom Dilworth, research director at the Employment Policies Institute, explains【C17】________some workers like having temporary jobs【C18】________it affords them a great deal of elasticity with time and everything. Some temps only have a limited【C19】________of time to work and temp agencies can help coordinate jobs to fit their schedules. Other sometimes-employees use temporary jobs to get an【C20】________to a company from the inside, to get a foot in the door of a certain business or career. Still others take temporary positions in hopes their employers will change them over to permanent positions eventually. [br] 【C11】
选项
A、temporary
B、permanent
C、appropriate
D、proper
答案
B
解析
画线部分前提到的the position指代temps“临时工”,结合regard the position as a step on the ladder to…“将临时工作当成……的跳板”可知,应填入“临时工”相反的工作类型,permanent意为“永久的,固定的”为正确答案。A项temporary“暂时的”与语义需求相反;C项appropriate“适当的,恰当的”和D项proper “合适的”填入文中语义虽通顺,但不能与“临时工”形成直接的对比,故排除。
