听力原文： Laid-off workers are still the focus of China's unemployment problem.
Wang Yadong, a senior official at the Ministry of Labor and Social Security said the year will conclude the government's three-year policy of actively promoting employment. The plan was adopted in 2002 to provide subsidies and job opportunities for laid-off workers. He said that a system of unemployment insurance will take its place.
By the end of last year, there were 1.53 million laid-off workers from state-owned companies nationwide, with 930,000 currently registered in re-employment service centers.
Ministry spokesman Hu Xiaoyi said officials will expand the unemployment insurance system this year to employees of non-state-owned enterprises. So far, a dozen provinces - mostly in the east and the north - have established such systems, while western areas will catch up gradually.
Meanwhile, the number of jobless young people is on the rise. Statistics show young people make up an increasing part of the unemployed, 0.7 percent more than that from the same period over last year.
Analysts say the upward expansion in college enrolment in recent years is much to blame since it has ignored unbalanced industrial development and has failed to match market demands.
The undesirable employment situation can also be found in some poor areas, several industries and some special groups, including the disabled.
The ministry said it will produce a new package of measures to solve employment problems among laid-off workers, college students and the rural labor force during the next year.

A．To adopt a three-year policy.
B．To provide subsidies.
C．To create more job opportunities.
D．To adopt a system of unemployment insurance.

It is by now increasingly recognized that workers may be thrown out of work by industrial forces beyond their control, and that the unemployed are in some sense paying the price of the economic progress of the rest of the community. But concern with unemployment and the unemployed varies sharply. The issues of duty and responsibility were reopened and revitalized by the unemployment scare of 1971-1972. Rising unemployment and increased sums paid out in benefits to the workless had reawakened controversies which had been inactive during most of the period of fuller employment since the war ended the Depression. It looked as though in future there would again be too little work to go round, so there were arguments about how to produce more work, how the available work should be shared out, and who was responsible for unemployment and the unemployed.
In 1972 there were critics who said that the State's action in allowing unemployment to rise was a faithless act, a breaking of the social contract between society and the worker. Yet in the main any contribution by employers to unemployment such as lying off workers in order to introduce technological changes and maximize profits tended to be ignored. And it was the unemployed who were accused of failing to honor the social contract, by not fulfilling their duty to society to work. In spite of general concern at the scale to the unemployment statistics, when the unemployed were considered as individuals, they tended to attract scorn and threats of punishment. Their capacities and motivation as workers and their value as members of society became suspect. Of all the myths of the Welfare State, stories of the work shy and borrowers have been the least well founded on evidence, yet they have proved the most persistent. The unemployed were accused of being responsible for their own workless condition, and doubts were expressed about the State's obligation either to provide them with the security of work or to support them through Social Security.
Underlying the arguments about unemployment and the unemployed is a basic disagreement about the nature and meaning of work in society. To what extent can or should work be regarded as a service, not only performed by the worker for society but also made secure for the worker by the State, and supported if necessary？ And apart from cash are there social pressures and satisfactions which cause individuals to seek and keep work, so that the workless need work rather than just cash？
It is the author's belief that______.
A．unemployment must lead to inevitable depression of national economy
B．the unemployed are the victims of economical and social development
C．unemployment should be kept under the control of industrial forces
D．the unemployed are not entitled to share the benefits from technological progress
There are five main consequences of this uncontrolled urbanization: firstly, people move from the country to the city because they see the city as a more desirable place' to live. Secondly, rural areas thus become less populated and this causes a decrease in the production of food. Thirdly, there is a high urban population growth rate. Fourthly, there is a dramatic pressure on the supply of social services, especially those services related to education and health, and finally, uncontrolled urbanization leads to an excess of labor supply in the cities.
There are a few policies which could slow this kind of uncontrolled urbanization in developing countries. A more equal land distribution should be promoted. In this way farmers would be more motivated to stay on the land. Also, the supply of social services in the rural areas has to be improved, particularly in the field of health and education. Most importantly, it is necessary to give financial assistance to agriculture, especially to the small land owners.

One consequence is that jobless benefits for an estimated 780, 000 Americans will abruptly stop tomorrow, even though most recipients have not yet exhausted their benefits. President Bush failed to show any leadership on this matter during the November Congress. Later, he finally askedCongress to extend the program for these workers and to make the benefits effective from Dec. 28.
That's not enough. The way unemployment insurance typically works is that states provide laid-off workers with 26 weeks of benefits, followed by 13 weeks of federal aid. Under Mr. Bush's scheme, federal benefits would be extended only for those who were already receiving them on Dec. 28. The extension would not cover the jobless workers who will exhaust their regular state-funded benefits after Dec. 28 — an estimated 95, 000 every week — but will receive no federal help unless the program is re-authorized. By the end of March , 1.2 million workers could fall into this catego？ry.
The Senate saw this problem coming, and under the leadership of Hillary Rodham Clinton for New York and Don Nickles of Oklahoma, passed a bill that would not only have covered people al？ready enrolled in the federal program but provided 13 weeks of assistance for those losing their state benefits in the new year. The House, for largely trivial reasons, refused to go along.
Bill Frist, the new Senate majority leader, says he is looking for ways to put a kinder, gentler face on the Republican Party. Passing the Clinton-Nickles bill would be a good way to begin. The House should then follow suit. One of the House's complaints last year was that, at $ 5 billion, the Clinton-Nickles bill was too expensive. That's ridiculous, considering the costs of the tax cuts that House Republicans have in mind.
The unemployment rate last month stood at 6 percent, the highest since mid-1994. The country could use a $ 5 billion shot in the arm right about now. So could a lot of increasingly desperate peo？ple.
According to the author, the proposed extension is
A．what the coming Congress should reconsider.
B．excluded from the economic stimulus packages.
C．a relief program carefully designed by the House.
D．put forward by both Republicans and Democrats.
