    Text 4 When the government talks about infrastructure contributing to the economy the focus is usually on roads,railways,broadband and energy.Housing is seldom mentioned.Why is that?To some extent the housing sector must shoulder the blame.We have not been good at communicating the real value that housing can contribute to economic growth.Then there is the scale of the typical housing project.It is hard to shove for attention among multibillionpound infrastructure project,so it is inevitable that the attention is focused elsewhere.But perhaps the most significant reason is that the issue has always been so politically charged.Nevertheless,the affordable housing situation is desperate.Waiting lists increase all the time and we are simply not building enough new homes.The comprehensive spending review offers an opportunity for the government to help rectify this.It needs to put historical prejudices to one side and take some steps to address our urgent housing need.There are some indications that it is preparing to do just that.The communities minister,Don Foster,has hinted that George Osborne,Chancellor of the Exchequer,may introduce more flexibility to the current cap on the amount that local authorities can borrow against their housing stock debt.Evidence shows that 60,000 extra new homes could be built over the next five years if the cap were lifted,increasing GDP by 0.6%.Ministers should also look at creating greater certainty in the rental environment,which would have a significant impact on the ability of registered providers to fund new developments from revenues.But it is not just down to the government.While these measures would be welcome in the short term,we must face up to the fact that the existing£4.5bn programme of grants to fund new affordable housing,set to expire in 2015,is unlikely to be extended beyond then.The Labour party has recently announced that it will retain a large part of the coalition's spending plans if returns to power.The housing sector needs to accept that we are very unlikely to ever return to era of largescale public grants.We need to adjust to this changing climate.While the government’s commitment to long-term funding may have changed,the very pressing need for more affordable housing is real and is not going away.
    It can be learned that affordable housing has______

    A.increased its home supply
    B.offered spending opportunities
    C.suffered government biases
    D.disappointed the government

    答案:C

    推理题【命题思路】这是一道封闭式推理题。考生需要在对第三段和第四段的信息理解的基础之上进行推理。【直击答案】根据题干可以定位到第三段第一句话,经济适用房的情况不容乐观。第四段接着提到政府的综合支出审查是改善这一情况的一次机会,但政府需要将历史偏见先放到一边。这说明经济适用房曾遇到过偏见,这正是C项所表达的含义。从同义替换的角度来看,“suffered”是过去式,是对于原文“historical”的同义替换,“biases”是对原文“prejudices”的同义替换。【干扰排除】A项与原文信息相反,第三段第二句指出对经济适用房的需求量一直增加(waiting lists increase),而非供应量(supply)增加。第四段说综合支出审查给改善经济适用房的情况提供了机会,而B项是指经济适用房给政府支出提供了机会,这属于信息混淆,故排除。D项“经济适用房让政府很失望”在文中并未提及,属于无中生有,故排除。

    资料:It seems simple enough. Take all the line-forming and paper-filling busy work of the government, and put it all up on the Internet. Now, in order to report a pot-hole, pay your property tax, complain to an official or cast a vote, just log on and hit a few buttons. Goodbye bureaucracy, hello e-cracy?
    However, the shift to e-government is turning into one giant pain in the neck — technology isn't the problem, money is. The Gartner Group estimated that project spending for e-government will grow from $6.5 billion in 2010 to more than $16.8 billion by 2025.The cost worldwide over the next 15 years, however, is thought by some to reach or even exceed $600 billion.
    Citizens are of two minds — they like the convenience and flexibility of e-government, but they have shown no great interest in coughing up extra tax dollars for this purpose. E-government is turning out to be much more expensive than its early champions envisioned. Just because that a state's department of motor vehicles allows online auto registration doesn't mean it can shut down its physical stations. The cost of creating and maintaining an Internet presence must be added to the existing cost structure.
    Why so expensive? It's cheap enough for a regional forest service to put up a fire alert website. But mounting a comprehensive system of inputs and outputs that mirrors and in some instances supersedes off-line government structures is a mammoth expenditure, conducted with little assurance that emerging technological standards won't leave your effort in the dust.

    问答题
    Practice 8  The effect of governmental expenditures on the total economy varies with both the level of utilization of labor and capital in the economy at the time of the expenditure, and the segment of the economy which receives the expenditure's the economy as a whole or the segment of the economy which is the focus of the expenditure is operating at capacity or close to capacity, then the expenditure's major effects will tend to be inflationary, and will not generate much employment of capital and labor. If the economy or sector is operating at much less than full employment, the expenditure will produce a genuine(non-inflationary)rise in the GDP.  A true measure of the effect of governmental increase in the amount of money made available, then, is not the simple dollar value of the initial injection but the cumulative effect of this injection through spending and re-spending. In the optimum case the initial expansion of income flow could be great enough to produce tax revenues in excess of the original “deficit spending” or “the tax cut,” so that deficits are not only smaller than the increased GNP but are recouped. In Keynesian economics the fundamental point of government policy clearly is not budget-balancing but spending in the event of unused productive capacity and unemployment. Spending increases productivity. The productivity resulting from federal spending has overwhelmed the older economic myths of the balanced budget where government is conceived of as just another business firm.

    正确答案: 【参考译文】
    政府支出对总体经济的影响,随着支出之时经济中劳力和资本的利用水平及获得政府支出的经济部门的变化而变化。如果整个经济或政府支出的重点经济部门开足马力或接近于开足马力运行,那么支出所产生的主要影响将趋向于通货膨胀,而不会使资本和劳力得到很大的利用。如果总体经济或该部门远非满负荷运行,那么支出将使国民生产总值出现真正的(非通货膨胀性质)的增长。
    因此,真正衡量政府支出增加所产生的影响的,不单单是最初投入的美元价值,而是这一投入通过支出和再支出所产生的累积影响。在最佳的情况下,收入流量的最初扩张有时候会大到足以产生超出原先“赤字开支”或“减税”的税收收入,以至于赤字不仅小于增加国民生产总值,而且还得到弥补。根据凯恩斯的经济学理论,如果发生生产能力闲置和失业情况,政府政策的基本点显然不是平衡预算,而是支出。支出可以增加生产力:由联邦政府支出而产生的生产力,破除了早年政府被视为仅仅是另一个企业时在经济上须平衡预算的神话。

    单选题
    Income Income may be national income and personal income. Whereas national income is defined as the total earned income of all the factors of production-namely, profits, interest, rent, wages, and other compensation for labor, personal income may be defined as total money income received by individuals before personal taxes are paid. National income does not equal GNP (Gross National Product) because the factors of production do not receive payment for either capital consumption allowances or indirect business taxes, both of which are included in GNP. The money put aside for capital consumption is for replacement and thus is not counted as income. Indirect taxes include sales taxes, property taxes , and excise taxes that are paid by businesses directly to the government and so reduce the income left to pay for the factors of production. Three-fourths of national income goes for wages, salaries, and other forms of compensation to employees. Whereas national income shows the income that the factors of production earn, personal income measures the income that individuals or households receive. Corporation profits are included in national income because they are earned. Out of these profits, however, corporation profit taxes must be paid to the government, and some money must be put into the business for expansion. Only that part of profits distributed as dividends goes to the individual; therefore, out of corporation profits only dividends count as personal income. The factors of production earn money for social security and unemployment insurance contributions, but this money goes to government (which is not a factor of production), not to individuals. It is therefore part of national income but not part of personal income. On the other hand, money received by individuals when they collect social security or unemployment compensation is not money earned but money received. Interest received on government bonds is also in this category, because much of the money received from the sale of bonds went to pay for war production and that production no longer furnishes a service to the economy. The money people receive as personal income may be either spent or saved. However, not all spending is completely voluntary. A significant portion of our income goes to pay personal taxes. Most workers never receive the money they pay in personal taxes, because it is withheld from their paychecks. The money that individuals are left with after they have met their tax obligations is disposable personal income. Disposable income can be divided between personal consumption expenditures and personal savings. It is important to remember that personal saving is what is left after spending. It can be easily seen from this passage that the government levies tax on()
    A

    corporation profits

    B

    every individual even though his income is very low

    C

    those who work in joint ventures
