Innovation, the effective recipe of progress, has always cost people their jobs. Over the past 30 years the digital revolution has【C1】______ many of the mid-skill jobs that supported 20th-century middle-class life. Typists, ticket agents, bank tellers and many production-line jobs have been【C2】______ with.
For those who believe that technological progress has made the world a better place, such change is a natural part of rising【C3】______ . Although innovation kills some jobs, it creates new and better ones, as a more productive society becomes richer and its wealthier inhabitants【C4】______ more goods and services. A hundred years ago one in three American workers was employed on a farm. Today less than 2% of them produce far more food. The millions freed from the land were not delivered to joblessness, but found better-paid work as the economy grew more【C5】______ . Today the pool of secretaries has【C6】______ , but there are ever more computer programmers and web designers.
Optimism remains the right starting-point, but for workers the dislocating (扰乱的) effects of technology may make themselves evident faster than its benefit. Even if new jobs and【C7】______ products emerge, in the short term income gaps will widen, causing huge social dislocation and perhaps even changing politics. Technology’s impact will feel like a tornado, hitting the rich world first, but【C8】______ sweeping through poorer countries too. Worse, it seems likely that this wave of technological【C9】______ to the job market has only just started. From driverless cars to clever household devices, innovations that already exist could destroy jobs that have【C10】______ been untouched.
A) prosperity E) partition I) conversely M) demand
B) dispensed F) eventually J) shrunk N) complicated
C) inquire G) sophisticated K) fragile O) hitherto
D) wonderful H) displaced L) disruption [br] 【C5】
选项
答案
G
解析
由空格前的grow(变得)可知此处需填入more修饰的形容词或分词,作表语,补充说明主语the economy。本句提到,从土地上解放出来的数百万人并没有失业,反而找到了薪水更高的工作,因此经济形式是“好的”。sophisticated意为“富于经验的。精通的;精密的,复杂的;高雅的”,修饰economy时,表示经济(体系)是“先进完备的”,符合语境。而wonderful“极好的;惊人的,奇妙的”通常不用于修饰“经济”。
