D.Because the unemployment benefits are going to be stopped.

答案

参考答案:C

解析:

[分析]: 因果关系的找寻和判断。 根据原文Social democratic politicians have been facing the wrath of the public in recent months especially in the economically depressed east where many people face painful jobless benefit cuts from January 2005可知,社会民主派政客们最近几个月已经饱尝公众愤怒,尤其是来自经济衰退的东部地区的人们的愤怒。2005年7月以来该地区失业救济削减,使人们深感痛苦。由此可知,公众愤怒的原因是jobless benefit cuts,这与C项内容相符,因此该项为正确答案。[解题关键] 1)掌握同义词替换。原文关键词jobless benefit cuts与选项中 unemployment benefits... to be reduced意思相同;2)掌握句中逻辑关系。通过上下文可知本题相关原文where定语从句说明了公众愤怒的原因,因此需对该部分重点处理。
