Ⅰ．阅读理解
The term “underemployment” has three related meanings. In one n, it refers to a situation in which someone with excellent job qualifications(资格) is working in a position t
hat requires less qualifications，as for instance in the ca of a lawyer driving a school bus. In the cond n, it means working parttime when one would prefer to be working fulltime. In the third n, it is a form of overstaffing(人浮于事) in which employees are not being fully made u of.
All forms of underemployment have effect on the economy and the health parts of the business community. Longterm underemployment can also cover up the truth behind the employment situations. When nations collect employment statistics, they usually come up with a ba number of “unemployed”individuals, using that number to judge the health of the job market. This number does not include parttime workers looking for fulltime jobs, as they are considered employed, and it also doesn’t reflect workers who are underpaid, considering their qualifications.
In the first n，underemployment is a common problem in many parts of the developed world. Many people with college degrees are working in lowlevel or rvice industry jobs becau the job market is full.
The issue of parttime employment is also very rious. Some people are forced into parttime jobs, while others find themlves taking a parttime job becau nothing el is available, even though they really need to work fulltime. This problem is especially common in areas with asonal employment，where employers find it cheaper to maintain and lay off parttime staffs, rather than keeping a full staff at all times.
In the n of shortage of workers, underemployment appears in a variety of situations. Some companies maintain a full staff to be prepared for asonal work，or to keep welltrained, 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.
( )1．The purpo of the passage is.
A．to show underemployment is becoming more rious today
B．to imply women are laid off more than men
C．to explain the meaning of “underemployment”
D．to tell the prent economic situations
( )2．According to the text，underemployment means ________.
仅仅有条和井井有条的区别A．the same meaning as the word—unemployed
B．employees are not fully taken charge of
C．qualified workers get a low salary
D．people who do manual work for wages
幅拼音( )3．When it comes to unemployment statistics，________.
A．the underpaid workers are included
B．it implies the people who are jobless
C．the parttime employees are included
D．it shows the employment situation of a country
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。低度就业或不充分就业不是指没有工作，常常指有着某种专业资格的人从事着非专业的工作，也指本应该从事全职工作，而实际在做兼职，或者人浮于事的状态。本文给我们讲述的就是低度就业的三个层面及其形成原因。
1．C 主旨大意题。全文在解释underemployment的含义。故选C项。
