Задание II.
I. Read the text and answer the question in written form, using
the vocabulary list.
What do “workfare” programs require?
Vocabulary list:
1. per capita – на человека
2. assess (v) – оценивать
3. recipient (n) – получатель
4. remedial (a) – коррективный
5. exempt (v) – освобождать
6. encourage (v) – способствовать
7. decent (a) – минимальный
Welfare Support
1. There are, however, astonishing difference in the degree
to which states provide welfare support for their citizens.
Counting state and local funds only, the state of New York
spends about $385 a year for each one of its citizens on its poor,
while Arizona only spends $68, and Florida $78 per capita of
their populations. Obviously if one is poor or sick, it is better to
be in New York than in Arizona.
2. Likewise, although the states should be spending an
equal amount of money when given federal funds (federal
grants often require matching funds from states and local
communities), each state’s welfare department assesses its own
citizen’s needs. As a result, in the AFDS program, designed to
benefit children being raised in single-parent families, Alaska
provides over six times as much assistance (in 1986, an average
of $730 per month to a parent with two children) as does
Alabama (only $118 per family). Some states provide a lot of
help, and others, giving very little, seem to hope that their poor
will go elsewhere.
3. Since the 1070s, a number of states have started so-
called “workfare” (work + welfare) programs which require
welfare recipients to work or to participate in job training
programs. In about half of states, programs are in effect which
try to place welfare recipients in public-service jobs. Families
with preschool children are exempted from work requirements.
By providing remedial education, vocational training, and
childcare, state governments want to encourage welfare
recipients, especially families receiving AFDS, to get jobs with
decent wages and prospects for long-term employment.
4. Some of state’s workfare programs have met with
good success. In Massachusetts, for example, 20,000 welfare
recipients were placed in jobs within two years. California’s
new welfare-reform law provides for up to two years of training
for unfilled jobs to welfare recipients, and free childcare. Other
states have started similar efforts to help people get off welfare
and into permanent jobs.
II. а) Read the following sentences and point out the numbers of
the sentences which correspond to the content of the text.
b) Correct sentences with the wrong information and rewrite.
1. Different states provide equal welfare support for their
citizens.
2. The AFDS program is aimed to help sick people.
3. Families receiving AFDC are encouraged by
government.
4. Participation in workfare programs is obligatory.
5. Workfare programs in Massachusetts and in California
have been highly appreciated by people.
III. Read the text again and write out the amount of money and
help provided for welfare support in the following states.
1. Alaska
2. California
3. New York
4. Massachusetts
