說明文 熱點話題 underemployment 5分鐘 /5
The term“underemployment” has three related meanings.In one sense,it refers to a situation in which someone with excellent job qualifications(資格)
is working in a position that requires less qualifications,as for instance in the case of a lawyer driving a school bus.In the second sense,it means working part-time when one would prefer to be working full-time.In the third sense,it is a form of overstaffing(人浮于事)
in which employees are not being fully made use of.
All forms of underemployment have an effect on the economy and the health of the business community.Long-term underemployment can also cover up the truth behind the employment situations.When nations collect employment statistics,they usually come up with a base number of “unemployed” individuals,using that number to judge the health of the job market.This number does not include part-time workers looking for full-time jobs,as they are considered employed,and it also doesn't reflect workers who are underpaid,considering their qualifications.
In the first sense,underemployment is a common problem in many of the developed world.Many people with college degrees are working in low-level or service industry jobs because the job market is full.
The issue of part-time employment is also very serious.Some people are forced into part-time jobs,while others find themselves taking a part-time job because nothing else is available,even though they really need to work full-time.This problem is especially common in areas with seasonal employment,where employers find it cheaper to maintain and lay off part-time staffs,rather than keeping a full staff at all times.
In the sense of shortage of workers,underemployment appears in a variety of situations.Some companies maintain a full staff to be prepared for seasonal work,or to keep well-trained,qualified workers so that they will be available when needed.Labor laws and union pressures may also prevent a company from cutting down on staff or working hours,leading to a situation in which people report to work,but have nothing to do.
【語篇導讀】 本文是一篇說明文。低度就業或不充分就業不是指沒有工作,常常指有著某種專業資格的人從事著非專業的工作,也指本應該從事全職工作,而實際在做臨時工作,或者人浮于事的狀態。本文給我們講述的就是低度就業的三個層面及其形成原因。

答案 A
5.Some companies maintain a full staff
.
A.to compete with others in the future
B.to make preparations for seasonal work
C.to get the skilled workers paid
D.to obey labor laws and union pressures
解析 細節理解題。文章最后一段提到有些公司沒有解雇員工是為季節性的工作做準備,由此可知B正確。

【長難句解讀】
原文 In one sense,it refers to a situation in which someone with excellent job qualifications is working in a position that requires less qualifications,as

分析 該句結構較為復雜。首先該句子中in which 引導了一個限制性定語從句,先行詞為situation,也可以用where來引導該定語從句;再次,在該定語從句中又包含有that引導的定語從句,that作定語從句中的主語,不能省略。

應用文 天氣 winter 6分鐘 /5
In the winter months—December,January and February—the temperature in most of Canada usually stays below 0℃.However,in some parts of Canada,such as southern British Columbia,the temperature rarely goes below 0℃.In most of the regions in Canada where people live,snow will be on the ground from mid-December to the middle of March.Though Canada's winter may be much colder and longer than you are used to,it can be very enjoyable.For many Canadians,being active in winter is an important part of enjoying life.There are many outdoor winter activities,including skiing,ice fishing,walking,and skating.Joining in one of these activities may help you appreciate winter and enjoy your time outside in the snow.
Dressing for winter
During winter in Canada,you will need warm clothing.If possible,arrive with these items or be prepared to buy them soon after your arrival.You will need:
*Insulated waterproof boots
*A scarf for your neck
*A hat that covers your ears
*Gloves or mittens for your hands
*Thick winter coats,pants and sweaters
Layers(層) keep you warm
It is a good idea to layer your clothing by,for example,wearing a T-shirt and a sweater underneath a jacket.If you become too hot,it is always easier to remove a piece of clothing than to add another.On the West Coast,prepare to dress for cool rainy or snowy weather.You will need:
*A warm waterproof coat
*Lined waterproof footwear such as rain boots or snow boots
*Gloves or mittens
*Waterproof hats
*An umbrella
Learn more about weather and seasons across Canada.You can also contact Related Links,for example,an immigrant-serving organization in the community where you live for more information about dressing for winter.

答案 D
3.If you stay in Canada for the coming winter,you will prepare all EXCEPT
.
A.snow boots and gloves

B.Because taking off clothes is easier than putting on.
C.Because it is a rule to dress like that.
