Passage 55

Passage 55

Some observers have attributed the dramatic growth

in temporary employment that occurred in the United

states during the 1980’s to increased participation in

the workforce by certain groups, such as first-time or

(5) reentering workers, who supposedly prefer such arrange-

ments. However, statistical analyses reveal that demo-

graphic changes in the workforce did not correlate with

variations in the total number of temporary workers.

Instead, these analyses suggest that factors affecting.

(10) employers account for the rise in temporary employ-

ment. One factor is product demand: temporary

employment is favored by employers who are adapting

to fluctuating demand for products while at the same

time seeking to reduce overall labor costs. Another

(15) factor is labor’s reduced bargaining strength, which

allows employers more control over the terms of

employment. Given the analyses, which reveal that

growth in temporary employment now far exceeds the

level explainable by recent workforce entry rates of

(20) groups said to prefer temporary jobs, firms should be

discouraged from creating excessive numbers of tem-

porary positions. Government policymakers should

consider mandating benefit coverage for temporary

employees, promoting pay equity between temporary

(25) and permanent workers, assisting labor unions in orga-

nizing temporary workers, and encouraging firms to

assign temporary jobs primarily to employees who

explicitly indicate that preference.

7. The passage mentions each of the following as an

appropriate kind of governmental action EXCEPT

(A) getting firms to offer temporary employment

primarily to a certain group of people.

(B) encouraging equitable pay for temporary and

permanent employees

(C) facilitating the organization of temporary workers by

labor unions.

(D) establishing guidelines on the proportion of

temporary workers that firms should employ

(E) ensuring that temporary workers obtain benefits

from their employers.

答案选a,我想选d,定位应该就在高亮处,请教大家

这题以前讨论过

d对应的是mandating benefit coverage for temporary employees,控制临时雇员的覆盖面。

a:你是不是以为它对应encouraging firms to assign temporary jobs primarily to employees who explicitly indicate that preference.

可是这句是说公司应该将临时岗位提供个那些确实想做临时工作的人啊.这是E对应的地方,我觉得他绕了一下,公司雇用那些愿意的人,就是满足了那些人的benefits嘛。

而A的意思是公司应该将temporary 提供给特定的人群,就是说你可能想做temporary但是不属于a certain group,所以公司不会雇你。
