Poverty exists because our society is an unequal one, and there arc powerful
political pressures to keep it that way. Any attempt to redistributing wealth and income 【S1】______
in the United States will inevitably be opposed by powerful middle and upper
class interests. People can be relatively rich only if you are relatively poor, and as 【S2】______
power is mainly in the hands of the rich, public policies reflect their interests than 【S3】______
those of the poor.
As Mr. Herbert Gans has pointed out, poverty is actually functional from the
point of view of the non-poor. Poverty ensures that dirty work gets doing. If there 【S4】______
were no poor people to scrub floors and empty bedpan, these jobs will have to be 【S5】______
rewarded with high incomes before anyone would touch them. Poverty creates jobs
for many of the non-poor, such as police officers, welfare workers, and government
bureaucrats. Poverty makes life easier for the rich by providing them with cookers, 【S6】______
gardeners, and other workers to perform basic chores when their employers enjoy more 【S7】______
pleasurable activities. Poverty provides a market for more inferior goods and 【S8】______
service, such as day-old bread, run-down automobiles ,’ or the advice of competent 【S9】______
physicians and lawyers. Poverty also provides a group that can be made to absorb
the costs of change. It is just that poverty is an inevitable outcome of the American
economic system, in which the poor are politically powerless to influence or change. 【S10】______ [br] 【S9】
选项
答案
competent→incompetent
解析
此句讲的是穷人所能享受的服务,过期的面包、报废的汽车,还有不合格的医生和律师所提供的建议。如果是competent,则成了合格的医生和律师所提供的建议,那么与整句意思不符。
