Hi, everybody. Over the past couple months, most of the political headlines you’ve read have probably been about the government shutdown and the launch of the Affordable Care Act(平价医疗法案). And I know that many of you have rightly never been more frustrated with Washington.
But if you look beyond those headlines, there are some good things happening in our economy. And that’s been my top priority（优先考虑）since the day I walked into the Oval Office.
After decades in which the middle class was working harder and harder just to keep up, and a punishing recession（衰退）that made it worse, we made the tough choices required not just to recover from crisis, but to rebuild on a new foundation for stronger, more durable economic growth.
Five years later, we have fought our way back. Our businesses have created 7.8 million new jobs in the past 44 months. Another 200,000 Americans went back to work last month.
The American auto industry has come back with more than 350,000 new jobs –-- jobs putting out and selling the high-tech, fuel-efficient cars the world wants to buy. And they’re leading the charge in a business that has added jobs for the first time since the 1990s –-- a big reason why our businesses sell more goods and services “Made in America” than ever before.
We decided to stop our addiction to foreign oil. And today, we produce more renewable energy than ever, more natural gas than anybody, and for the first time in nearly 20 years, America now produces more oil than we buy from other countries.
We decided to fix a broken health care system. And even though the task has been rough, so far, about 500,000 Americans gain health coverage starting January 1st. And by the way, health care costs are growing at the slowest rate in 50 years.
And one more thing: since I took office, we’ve cut our deficits (赤字) by more than half. And that makes it easier to invest in the things that create jobs –-- education, research, and so on.
Imagine how much farther along we could be if both parties were working together. Think about what we could do if the few didn’t hold the economy hostage (人质) every few months, or waste time on dozens of votes to repeal the Affordable Care Act rather than try to help us fix it.
In the weeks ahead, I’ll keep talking about my plan to build a better bargain for the middle class. Good jobs. A good education. A chance to buy a home, save, and retire. And yes, the financial security of affordable health care. And I’ll look for any willing partners who want to help.
Because of your hard work and tough sacrifices over the past five years, we’re pointed in the right direction. But we’ve got more work to do to keep moving that way. And as long as I’m President, I’ll keep doing everything I can to create jobs, grow the economy, and make sure that everyone who works hard has a chance to get ahead. Thanks, and have a great weekend.

(答案→)D 解析：这篇文章的奥巴马总统的演讲，就人们对政府不满的情况做出说明，希望两党展开合作，继续推动美国经济向前发展。【小题1】细节题：题目问：下面哪个不是人们对政府失望的原因？由frustrated定位到第一段的句子：the launch of the Affordable Care Act(平价医疗法案). 可知人们失望的不是平价医疗法案的取消，而是实施平价医疗法案。选D。【小题2】细节题：题目问：为什么总统提到美国制造的商品和服务？由“Made in America” 定位到第五段的句子：And they’re leading the charge in a business that has added jobs for the first time since the 1990s –-- a big reason why our businesses sell more goods and services “Made in America” than ever before. 他们正领导自上世纪九十年代以来首次增加工作的制造部门的冲锋——正是这一理由，我们的企业卖出的“美国制造”商品和服务，比历史上任何时候都要多。可知总统主要是为了说明就业率在增加，选C。【小题3】猜词题：从倒数第三段的句子：Think about what we could do if the few didn’t hold the economy hostage (人质) every few months, or waste time on dozens of votes to repeal the Affordable Care Act rather than try to help us fix it.对应的单词是fix，考虑一下，如果不是不计后果的少数人每过几个月就以美国经济作为人质进行威胁，或在数十次投票表决上浪费时间，废除《平价医疗法案》而非试图帮助我们对其进行修复，那我们又能做什么。所以“repeal”是“put an end to”。选A。【小题4】推理题：题目问：从这篇演讲可以推断出什么？从倒数第三段的句子：Think about what we could do if the few didn’t hold the economy hostage (人质) every few months, or waste time on dozens of votes to repeal the Affordable Care Act rather than try to help us fix it.可以推断出一些政府官员不同意总统的医疗法案。选D。

OK啦
