One principle of taxation, called the benefits principle, states that people should pay taxes based on the benefits they receive from government services. This principle tries to make public goods similar to【C1】______goods. It seems reasonable that a person who often goes to the movies pays more in【C2】______for movie tickets than a person who rarely goes. And【C3】______, a person who gets great benefit from a public good should pay more for it than a person who gets little benefit.
The gasoline tax, for instance, is sometimes【C4】______using the benefits principle. In some states,【C5】______from the gasoline tax are used to build and maintain roads. Because those who buy gasoline are the same people who use the roads, the gasoline tax might be viewed as a【C6】______way to pay for this government service.
The benefits principle can also be used to argue that wealthy citizens should pay higher taxes than poorer ones,【C7】______because the wealthy benefit more from public services. Consider, for example, the benefits of police protection from【C8】______. Citizens with much to protect get greater benefit from police than those with less to protect. Therefore, according to the benefits principle, the wealthy should【C9】______more than the poor to the cost of【C10】______the police force. The same argument can be used for many other public services, such as fire protection, national defense, and the court system.
A)adapt I)provided
B)contribute J)revenues
C)exerting K)similarly
D)expenses L)simply
E)fair M)theft
F)justified N)total
G)maintaining O)wealth
H)private [br] 【C4】
选项
答案
F
解析
根据空格前后的is和using可以判断,空格处应填入副词修饰动词,或填入动词过去分词构成被动语态。similarly和simply两个副词均与文意不符,故考虑使用justified或provided构成被动语态。provided后面不能使用现在分词形式,故可排除。因此,Justified为答案,意思是“证明……合理”,承接第一段内容,本句意为“燃油税的征收遵循受益原则就是合理的”。justify doing是常用结构,意为“证明……合理”。
