The “deindustrialization” thesis of Bluestone and Harrison asserts that the replacement of domestic with foreign manufacturing begun by United States corporations in the late 1960s resulted in a “hollowing out” of American industry, whereby workers displaced from manufacturing jobs through massive plant closings found themselves moving more or less permanently into lower-paying, less secure jobs or into unemployment. Critics of the deindustrialization thesis have argued that new service and high-technology sectors of the United States economy have recently created a substantial number of jobs. While these critics do not deny the painful aspects of this transition from an industrial to a service- and information-based economy, they argue that it will be short-term, and a necessary evil if the United States is to have long-term increases in living standards. Critics of the emerging economy, however, point to disturbing evidence of an “hourglass” effect: a shrinking middle tier of managerial and blue-collar unionized workers and consequent polarization of incomes. The emergence of a technical and financial elite, they argue, has brought forth a host of low-wage jobs to service the new economy, and it is this service sector that many ex-industrial workers must seek. [br] It can be inferred from the passage that the highlighted “critics” believe which of the following about “hourglass” effect?
选项
A、It involves the relegation of industrial workers to less desirable jobs.
B、It requires that workers make short-term sacrifices to achieve long-term gains.
C、It affects non-unionized workers more strongly than it does unionized workers.
D、It represents an increase in unemployment for those in the service sector.
E、It threatens the status of the technological and financial elite.
答案
A
解析
本题定位到第四、五句, “沙漏”效应导致两极分化严重,同时精英的出现使得很多前工业时期的工人进入到收入更低的服务业中。因此A正确。
