Ladies and gentleman. Our country has come to a crossroad, and now you have the power to change the political landscape of America. As I have said time and time again, if you elect me to be your face in congress, there are several things I will do to ensure that your needs are met day in and day out across this land.
First of all, I plan on proposing new laws that will invest more tax dollars in our public schools, not only to meet the needs of today, but to encourage developing minds for the future. Such new funding would be used to hire and retain good teachers, build new schools, and reduce the tax of classroom teachers. To accomplish this, I am proposing no new taxes increases, but rather are channeling of our existing tax revenue to meet these demands. Now, the current government leaders have been talking about this for years with little progress. I plan to change all of this now.
Second, economic development is on the minds of most of you, particularly with regard to our downtown area. For many years, economic prosperity has been neglected by current government leaders, and I plan to change all of that. I am proposing a city center revitalization project that would promote new businesses, new residential areas, and new open green areas to bring people back to the heart of our city. Current leaders have allowed the new city to die, preferring to invest in sport fields in the remote areas.
And third, I am proposing the construction of a light rail train system, to be built over the next decade, to meet the growing demands of better and more efficient transportation for years to come. My opponent and his administration have lacked the vision of long-term solutions, preferring to take a look-and-see approach. Such a short sighted stance fails to consider the needs of future generations... our children and our grandchildren.
And finally, my opponent has cited my inexperience as a reason why you shouldn’t vote for me. However, I am not a career politician who has lost touch with the everyday needs and concerns of day-today people. My work as an educator and business owner has given me a unique perspective on the pains and challenges you face.
If elected, I promise to give my all to my elected position and make sure your issues and concerns are fully addressed at the local and national level. Thank you.

选项
A、New laws will be passed to increase new taxes.
B、Taxes will be used to retain good teachers.
C、School funding will be generated by new taxes.
D、Income taxes should be used to build schools.
答案
B
解析
录音提到,候选人打算制定新的法律,在公立学校投入更多的税收。这些税收将被用来雇佣和留住优秀教师,建立新的学校,并减少教师的税收。由此可以选定B项“税收将被用来留住优秀教师”。候选人并不提倡增加新税收,因此排除A项“将通过新的法律以便增加新的税收”和C项“学校资金来自新税收”;录音未提及所得税(income tax),因此D项“应该用所得税来建造学校”也可以排除。
