Complete the sentences with a word derived from the one in bracket.

According to the newspaper, more than 50 workers were thrown into ( )when the factory closed last month.(employ)


【正确答案】:UNEMPLOYMENT
【题目解析】:

本题考查的是常见动词的衍生名词。

由into可知,空缺处应填名词,分析语境,工厂关闭则意味着工人的失业,employ的名词形式是employment意为“雇用、就业”,加上否定前缀un-衍生为其反义词unemployment意为“失业”。 

句意:据报纸报道,上个月工厂关闭时有50多名工人失因此失业。
