The U.S. welfare system operates on both the federal and state levels. The federal welfare program is known as Social Security that provides benefits or assistance for child care, disability, food and medical. The state welfare programs, on the other hand, provide assistance to both individuals and local communities with state schooling and social insurance. U.S. welfare programs grew significantly in the decades following World War II, but increases in welfare costs during the 1960s and 1970s brought into question the extent and quality of public assistance. 2021/8/146In the early 1980s the Reagan Administration reduced welfare expenditures and suggested turning responsibility for welfare funding over to the states. The cuts in federal funding that took effect during the Reagan Administration did in fact effectively place the responsibility for maintaining funding levels on the states — and, in some cases, on the larger cities. The result has been a widening of the already existing disparities in social services spending between states, and between cities and regions within a state. Social welfare is an integrated part of a country's social policy. The website offers definitions of such concepts as welfare and welfare state and discussions on welfare systems of other countries (in addition to the U.S.). 2021/8/147Enriching your vocabulary Read the sentences carefully and guess the meaning of the italicized term in each sentence according to the context and your own experiences. 2021/8/148•He finds it hard to live on his state pension. •He won‘t be able to draw / receive his pension until he’s 65. •I pay a higher rent / more rent than the other tenants because my room is bigger. •The old lady rented us her spare room for $50 a week. 抚恤金抚恤金养老金养老金租金租金出租出租2021/8/149•Against his father‘s advice, Peter opted for business. •I don‘t think that politician can drum up much support with all his speeches. •Manufacturers are offering big discounts to drum up business. •Jane plays drums in a local rock band. 选择选择得到得到招徕生意招徕生意打鼓打鼓2021/8/1410•There were a few sticky moments during the meeting. •His hands were sticky with jam. •It‘s very sticky in New York in August. •The government is trying to keep a low profile on this issue. •There are a growing number of women in high-profile positions. •The actor is photographed in profile, smoking a cigarette. 僵局僵局粘糊糊的粘糊糊的闷热闷热姿态姿态引人注目的引人注目的从侧面从侧面2021/8/1411•Being unemployed entitles you to free medical treatment. •She read a poem entitled “The Apple Tree”. •Compensation of injured workers has cost the company a lot. •She received $50,000 in compensation for a lost eye. 使你有权使你有权题目为题目为补偿补偿补偿补偿2021/8/1412•a man of liberal views•a liberal donation•There's a gun in practically every American home. •Practically, this book is more difficult than that one. •Detectives have finally tracked down the killer. 开明的开明的慷慨的慷慨的almost; nearly实际上实际上侦探们侦探们2021/8/1413•The walls were pasted with pictures of movie stars. •When I put wallpaper up I got paste all over my hands and clothes. •I paid the bill and he gave me a receipt. •Please sign this form to acknowledge receipt of the money. 贴满贴满浆糊浆糊收据收据收到收到2021/8/1414•They received a large donation to the school. •There‘s an insect crawling down your sleeve.•The traffic was crawling along at ten kilometers per hour. •Have you got a bit of cord that I can tie this parcel up with? 捐款捐款 爬爬缓慢向前移动缓慢向前移动绳子绳子2021/8/1415•He needed four strong screws for fixing the cupboard to the wall. •He screwed the handle to the door. •His brakes failed on a slippery road. •I hereby certify that the above information is true and accurate. 螺丝钉螺丝钉用螺丝钉固定用螺丝钉固定刹车刹车证明证明2021/8/1416•Bids for building the bridge were invited from big firms throughout the country. •Her bid for re-election was unsuccessful. •An anonymous letter alerted police to the possibility of a terrorist attack at the airport. •You must be alert to possible dangers. 出价,投标出价,投标an attempt to obtain sth.使警觉使警觉警惕警惕2021/8/1417•Two helicopters have already been shot down. •She has long been a champion of free speech. •She is the world champion for the third year in succession. •The car leaked oil all over the drive. •Air leaked out of the balloon. •He leaked the names to the press. 直升机直升机拥护者拥护者冠军冠军漏漏漏,渗漏,渗泄漏泄漏2021/8/1418•Three US state governors have put themselves forward as presidential candidates. •There wasn't enough evidence to convict him. •Faced with the evidence, he had to confess. •They were charged with taking money under the table. •They had been deeply involved in the crimes. 州长州长证明有罪证明有罪面对面对私下私下深深地卷入深深地卷入2021/8/1419•Deep down (inside you), I know you love me really. •Your brother is making a fool of you. •He knew better than to talk back to his father. •Our car broke down on the freeway. 在你心底里在你心底里愚弄愚弄顶嘴顶嘴抛锚抛锚2021/8/1420•News soon got around that he had resigned. •There seems to be an electrical problem.
