Nearly six million people in the UK are to be told they have paid the wrong amount of tax, with some facing bills demanding up to £ 5 000 in extra payments.(16)Around 1. 4 million people will be told they owe an average of £ 1 400 because of errors in HM Revenue and Customs’ calculations of the Pay As You Earn(PAYE)tax system over the past two years. The errors were identified by a new computer system that found widespread underpayments by employers through the PAYE system, which total about £ 2 billion.(17)Employees who moved jobs or accepted company cars or cash benefits from their employer were the most likely to be caught by the new system. But 4. 3 million people are set to receive a rebate because they have paid too much. With a total overpayment of £1.8 billion, each could receive an average rebate of £418. The first 45 000 letters from HM Revenue and Customs(HMRC)are expected to arrive on doormats(门垫)on Tuesday.(18)Around 30 000 letters will alert taxpayers that they are due a rebate and 15 000 will inform them that they have underpaid and will have their tax code altered next year to retrieve the money. The problems arise because at the end of each year HMRC checks that the amounts deducted in tax and national insurance by employers using the PAYE system match up with the information held on their records.(19)The process of checking contributions was done manually on a case-by-case basis until last June when a new computerised system was introduced, which HMRC says should help reduce mistakes in the future.
16. For what reason did so many British people pay less tax?
17. Who were the most likely to be caught by the new tax system?
18. In what way will the underpaid money be retrieved?
19. How was the process of checking tax contributions done according to the passage?
选项
A、By writing to the taxpayers.
B、By altering their tax code.
C、By deducting from their accounts.
D、By demanding payment beforehand.
答案
B

事实细节题。本题问的是欠交的税款将会以何种方式被追回。短文中介绍说,英国税务海关总署首批发出了45 000封通知信,其中30 000封信通知纳税人退税期限将至,15 000封通知纳税人欠税,其中欠税者的免税代码明年将被修改,以补缴税款。
