The Economist calculates that around the world almost 290 million 15- to 24-year-olds are neither working nor studying: almost a quarter of the planet’s youth. On the other hand, many of the "employed" young have only informal and【C1】________jobs. In rich countries more than c. third, on average, are on temporary【C2】________which make it hard to【C3】________skills. In poorer ones, according to the World Bank, a fifth are【C4】________family labourers or work in the informal economy.【C5】________, nearly half of the world’s young people are either【C6】________the formal economy or contributing less【C7】________than they could.
What has caused this【C8】________of joblessness? Young people have long had a raw【C9】________in tne labour market. Two things make the problem more【C10】________now. The financial crisis and its consequence had an unusually big【C11】________on them. Many employers【C12】________the newest hires first, so a【C13】________raises youth joblessness disproportionately.
Second, the emerging economies that have the largest and fastest-growing【C14】________of young people also have the【C15】________labour markets. Almost half of the world’s young people live in South Asia, the Middle East and Africa. They also have the highest【C16】________of young people out of work or in the informal sector.
In rich countries with generous welfare states this【C17】________a heavy burden on taxpayers. One estimate suggests that, in 2011, the economic loss from【C18】________young people in Europe【C19】________to $ 153 billion, or more than 1 % of GDP. And failure to employ the young not only【C20】________growth today. It also threatens it tomorrow.
【C14】
选项
A、accommodations
B、populations
C、occupations
D、surroundings
答案
B
解析
该句对造成全球大量年轻人失业的另一原因——the emerging economies. . .(新兴经济体的劳务市场表现)进行说明。结合下一句提到的世界上几乎有一半的年轻人生活在南亚、中东及非洲。这些地区年轻人的失业或从事非正规行业的比例也是最高的,可推知这里指新兴经济体内的年轻人群体,故答案选B项。这篇文章没有提及住房的问题,故排除A项; C项occupations“职业”,代入原文表示新兴经济体内有最大的、增长速度最快的年轻人的各种职业,与上下文提到“普遍失业问题”不相符;D项surroundings“环境”代入原文后与 “年轻人失业问题”不相关,也排除。
