When the tsunami hit southern Thailand last year hundreds of Burmese migrants working in beach front hotels were among the victims. Thai officials have identified 80 Burmese migrant workers among the dead. But they believe several of the more than 800 unidentified bodies are likely to be Burmese. Thousands of Burmese migrant workers are employed along Thailand’s Andaman Sea coast—a source of cheap labor for contractors who often overlook the need to register the workers. Those who survived the tsunami often found their jobs, homes and belongings were gone, and that they were unable to get government aid. Adisorn Kurdmongkol, a Thai labor activist, says the disaster called attention to the problems the Burmese migrants faced even before the tsunami.
3. How many unidentified bodies are likely to be Burmese?
4. What happened to the surviving Burmese after last year’s tsunami?
选项
A、They were employed by contractors.
B、They overlooked the government aid.
C、They called attention to the problems of migrants.
D、They were unable to get government aid.
答案
D
解析
新闻提到,那些在海啸中幸免于难的人发现他们的工作没了,家和财产也被海啸冲走了,并且他们也得不到政府的援助(unable to get government aid)。故D正确,并同时可以排除B“他们忽视政府的援助”。A“他们被包工头雇用了”和新闻说的“他们工作没了”(their jobs…were gone)相反。C所说的“引起对移民问题的关注”是泰国劳工活跃分子Adisorn Kurdmongkol的呼吁,与海啸幸存者无关。
