They are among the 250,000 people under the age of 25 who are out of work in the Netherlands, a group that accounts for 40 percent of the nation’s unemployed. A storm of anger boils up at the government-sponsored(政府資助的) youth center, even among those who are continuing their studies.
“We study for jobs that don’t exist.” Nicollete Steggerda, 23, said.
After three decades of prosperity, unemployment among 10 member nations of the European Community has exceeded 11 percent, affecting a total of 12.3 million people, and the number is climbing.
The bitter disappointment long expressed by British youths is spreading across the Continent. The title of a rock song “No Future” can now be seen written on the brick walls of closed factories in Belgium and France.
Recent surveys have found that the increasing argument in the last few years over the deployment(布局) in Europe of North Atlantic Treaty Organization missiles and the possibility of nuclear war have clouded European youths’ confidence in the future.
One form of protest tends to put the responsibility for a country’s economic troubles on the large numbers of “guest workers” from Third World nations, people welcomed in Western Europe in the years of prosperity.
Young Europeans, brought up in an extended period of economic success and general stability, seem to resemble Americans more than they do their own parents. Material enjoyment has given them a sense of expectation, each the right, to a standard of living that they see around them.

答案是：1.D 2.C 3.C 4.D 5.A
1.D)roughly 0.6 million people. 參考原文第一句They are among the 250,000 people under the age of 25 who are out of work in the Netherlands, a group that accounts for 40 percent of the nation’s unemployed. 250,000≈D×40%
2.C) the students can’t get work after graduation. 原文是We study for jobs that don’t exist, 目的很明確, 是為了工作, 所以BD皆錯; A本文未有提及.
3.C) have been the first to show their disappointment over joblessness. 對應原文The bitter disappointment long expressed by British youths is spreading across the Continent.
4.D) about 40% of the guest workers are out of work in Western Europe now. 如果第一題做對了, 就知道40%不是the guest workers而是the nation’s unemployed. 其他三個選項皆可對應原文.
5.A) are more like Americans than their elders in their way of thinking. 對應原文Young Europeans, brought up in an extended period of economic success and general stability, seem to resemble Americans more than they do their own parents. Material enjoyment has given them a sense of expectation, each the right, to a standard of living that they see around them.
參考譯文：
荷蘭有25萬年齡在25歲以下的失業(yè)者，占全國失業(yè)人口的40%。在政府資助的青年中心，憤怒的情緒沸沸揚揚，甚至那些繼續(xù)就讀的學生也怒火中燒。
一個23歲的青年，尼古萊特斯蒂格達說，“我們?yōu)楣ぷ鞫鴮W習，但卻沒有工作。”
30年的繁榮之后，歐共體十成員國的失業(yè)率已超過11%，受影響的人數(shù)達1230萬之多，而且人數(shù)還在上升。
英國青年長期以來所表現(xiàn)出來的極度失望情緒正在歐洲大陸蔓延開來。比利時和法國倒閉工廠的磚墻上，寫著一首搖滾樂的歌名：“沒有未來”。
近來的調查表明，最近幾年，北大西洋公約組織在歐洲的導彈布局引起了越來越多的爭論，以及核戰(zhàn)爭可能爆發(fā)，這些給歐洲青年對將來的信心蒙上了一層可怕的陰影。
一種形式的抗議傾向于將國內的困難歸咎于來自第三世界國家的大量“外來勞工”，這些勞工曾在西歐的繁榮時期極受歡迎。
有一個相當長的經(jīng)濟繁榮和普遍穩(wěn)定時期，年輕的歐洲人就成長在這個時期，與其說他們像父母更不如說像美國人。物質享受給了他們一種期盼感，渴望達到耳濡目染的生活標準。物質享受甚至給了他們權利，有權去享受這種標準的生活。
“就這樣了，我們在迪斯科舞廳打發(fā)時光。要么在咖啡廳跟人坐坐，可人坐在那，卻呆如木雞。”伊莎貝拉奎爾說，“沒有什么好說的。你去放松放松，有時真的放松了。”
