在PTE中,无论是Summarise Spoken Text 还是 Re-tell Lecture的考题大都是从真实的讲座或者演讲中截取的,中间经常经常夹杂很多不同的环境音.很多同学都反映有时未必是听不懂,而是听不到. 鉴于此,墨尔本文波雅思PTE专门为大家总结了真实讲座的PTE练习音频,相比新闻音频来说,整体更加接近PTE考试的真题,内容方面,我们也会为大家提供考试中存在的近似题,最近我们会持续更新,敬请期待!
What matters is how much does each person in the household get, how much income is supporting each person in a household. Look what happens we take that 18 percent figure. Again the figure I remind you is from 1976 until 2006 in inflation-adjusted terms. The income above the median household income of Americans rose only by 18 percent, but at the same time the size of the household has fallen. So what’s happened to the average income per person in the household. Per household person income per each individual in the household over that thirty-year period. We see that that rose not by 18 percent but by 32 percent because the number of people in a household haven fallen, the amount of income earned by the household goes further per person. Because there were fewer people to share the income. Each person gets a larger slice of the pie because of few people sharing the pie. Just making that one adjustment looking at what’s happened to the size of households causes that 18 percent figure to rise to 32 percent. 32 percent’s still not great over a 30-year period but it’s different than 18 percent, a little bit more optimistic and if nothing else, it should give you some sense that data have to be interpreted carefully.
