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.
19. What do we learn about the candidate’s proposal on taxes?
20. What is the candidate’s main point about economic development?
21. What can we infer from the candidate’s point on transportation?
22. What reason is given for voting for the candidate at the end of the speech?
选项
A、More roads need to be built for future generations.
B、More means of transportation will be built in the future.
C、A train system will be built to improve transportation.
D、A road system will be built as a long-term solution to traffic.
答案
C
解析
候选人提议在未来十年内建成轻轨列车系统,以满足日益增长的对未来更便捷、更有效的交通需求。由此可知C项“将建立列车系统以便改善交通运输”为正确答案。A项“为后代修建更多的公路”在录音中并未提及;录音提到,满足人们对未来更有效的交通运输(more efficient transportation)的需求,而非B项的“未来建设多种交通方式”。故B项不正确;交通运输的长远解决方案是建造轻轨列车系统,故D项“建立公路系统是交通的长远解决方案”不正确。
