12、ere are several passages followed by fourteen multiple-choice questions. For each multiple-choice question, there are four suggested answers marked A , B, C and D. Choose the one that you think is the best answer. 25 (1)“Britains best export,“ I was told by the head of the Department of Immigration
13、in Canberra ,“is people. “ Close on 100,000 people have applied for assisted passages in the first five months of that year, and half of these are eventually expected to migrate to Australia. (2)The Australians are delighted. They are keenly aware that without a strong flow of immigrants into the wo
14、rkforce the development of the Australian economy is unlikely to proceed at the ambitious pace currently envisaged. The new mineral discoveries promise a splendid future, and the injection of huge amounts of American and British capital should help to ensure that they are properly exploited, but wit
15、h unemployment in Australia down to less than 1.3 per cent, the government is understandably anxious to attract more skilled labor. (3)Australia is roughly the same size as the continental United States, but has only twelve million inhabitants. Migration has accounted for half the population increas
16、e in the last four years, and has contributed greatly to the countrys impressive economic development. Britain has always been the principal source ninety per cent of Australians are of British descent, and Britain has provided one million migrants since the Second World War. (4)Australia has also g
17、iven great attention to recruiting people elsewhere. Australians decided they had an excellent potential source of applicants among the so-called “guest workers“ who have crossed their own frontiers to work in other parts of Europe. There were estimated to be more than four million of them, and a la
18、rge number were offered subsidized passages and guaranteed jobs in Australia. Italy has for some years been the second biggest source of migrants, and the Australians have also managed to attract a large number of Greeks and Germans. (5)One drawback with them, so far as the Australians are concerned
19、, is that integration tends to be more difficult. Unlike the British, continental migrants have to struggle with an unfamiliar language and new customs. Many naturally gravitate towards the Italian or Greek communities which have grown up in cities such as Sydney and Melbourne. These colonies have t
20、heir own newspapers, their own shops, and their own clubs. Their inhabitants are not Australians, but Europeans. (6)The governments avowed aim, however, is to maintain “a substantially homogeneous society into which newcomers, from whatever sources, will merge themselves“. By and large, therefore, A
21、ustralia still prefers British migrants, and tends to be rather less selective in their case than it is with others. (7)A far bigger cause of concern than the growth of national groups, however, is the increasing number of migrants who return to their countries of origin. One reason is that people n
22、owadays tend to be more mobile, and that it is easier than in the past to save the return fare, but economic conditions also have something to do with it. A slower rate of growth invariably produces discontent and if this coincides with greater prosperity in Europe, a lot of people tend to feel that
23、 perhaps they were wrong to come here after all. (8)Several surveys have been conducted recently into the reasons why people go home. One noted that “flies, dirt, and outside lavatories“ were on the list of complaints from British immigrants, and added that many people also complained about “ the cr
24、udity, bad manners, and unfriendliness of the Australians“. Another survey gave climate conditions, homesickness, and “ the stark appearance of the Australian countryside“ as the main reasons for leaving. (9)Most British migrants miss council housing, the National Health scheme, and their relatives
