Every ten years there is a national census to count the number of people. The Census Office asks every household to answer questions on a census form. The census counts people by the kind of housing they live in, the country in which they were born, and the kind of job they do and how they travel to work. Census results are used by a great many people and are available to everyone in many ways. For example, in order to work out present and future needs we must know how people are housed now, and the sizes and ages of their families. For hospitals, schools and other local services, the size of annual grants made by the Government to these services depends largely on the numbers and needs of people in the area.
Many of the figures come from the census. In order to work out future spending for pensions, we need to know people’s ages, how many are men and how many are women, whether they are single or married, and the size of the family. The census shows how many people have moved from one area to another and how the local workforce is changing. This information is used when factories, offices, shops, public transport and places for leisure are being planned. The census is taken in order to provide figures about the nation as a whole. It does not give information about any named person, family or household. Names and addresses are needed to take the census accurately, but they are not fed into the computer. After the census, the forms are locked away and will not be released to anyone outside the Census Office for 100 years. The answers you give on your census form will be treated secretly. No one outside the Census Office will see your completed form, but if you refuse to complete your form properly, you may be taken to court and the form could be produced as evidence. Everyone working on the census is required to keep it secret and can be prosecuted if he or she improperly reveals information.
The census shows the change that have taken place regarding ______.
选项
A、the number of people who work in the area
B、the number of buses in the area
C、the strength of workers in the area
D、the use of power in the area
答案
A
解析
分析推理题。文章第一段介绍了人口普查的方式就是普查人口数量,而第二段首先指出许多数据来自人口普查,然后在第三句指出,普查表明有多少人从一个地区流动到了另一个地区、本地劳动力如何变化。由此可以推知,它表现劳动力变化的方式就是普查当地的劳动力数量(并进行比较),选[A] 。
