问题 Work is one of society’s most important institutions. It is the
main mechanism through which spend power is allocated. It provides 【M1】______
people by meaning, structure and identity. Yet work is a less generous, 【M2】______
and less certain provider of these benefits than it once is. Since 2000, 【M3】______
economy growth across the rich world has failed to generate decent pay 【M4】______
increases for most workers. Now there is growing fear of a less fundamental 【M5】______
threat to the world of work: the possibility in that new technologies, from 【M6】______
machine learning to driverless cars, will cause havoc to employment.
Such worries have revived interest in an old idea: the payment of an "universal 【M7】______
basic income" , an unconditional government payment giving to all citizens, as 【M8】______
a supplement to or replacement for wages. On June 5th Swiss citizens will 【M9】______
decide in a referendum whether to require their government to adopt a basic
income. Finland and the Netherlands are planning limited experiments in which
some citizens are paid a month income of roughly 1, 000($1, 100). People 【M10】______
from all points on the ideological spectrum, from trade unionists to libertarians,
are supporters. It is an idea whose day may come. But not soon.
