第一句：

Despite this widespread faith in a monetary payoff for hard work and belief in myths of a classless society, economic inequality is now greater in the United States than in many other Western industrialized nations, and American rates of social mobility are lower.

参考译文：尽管人们普遍相信努力工作能获得金钱上的回报，也相信无阶级社会的神话，但美国的经济不平等比当下许多其他西方工业化国家更显著，社会流动性也更低。

第二句：

Contrary to our national tradition, the chances of ascending from poor beginnings to affluence or falling from fortune to poverty are slim.

参考译文：与我们的国家传说不同，从贫寒到富裕或从财富到困乏的机会都微乎其微。

第三句：

The top and bottom steps of America’s economic ladder are particularly sticky; children born to families in the top or bottom fifths of the income distribution tend to stay on those same steps as adults.

参考译文：美国经济阶梯的顶端和底部尤其具有粘性;生在收入处于前或后五分之一的家庭的孩子往往会和大人一样处在同样的经济阶梯。

思考题解析：

It can be learned from the text that ______.

从文章可以得知________

A. hard work will always lead to monetary success

努力工作通常一直会带来金钱上的成功

第一句就讲了，虽然大家都这样认为，但是没有说情况就是这样的。

B. the American dream has been gaining its appeal

美国梦的吸引力一直在增强

没有谈到一直在增强。

反而感觉在减弱。

C. the class of family foreshadows children’s future

家庭的阶级预示着孩子的未来

正确!

最后一句就说到了：美国经济阶梯的顶端和底部尤其具有粘性;生在收入处于前或后五分之一的家庭的孩子往往会和大人一样处在同样的经济阶梯。

D. income disparities have been narrowed nowadays

现在收入差距缩小了。

文章明确说了收入差距在加大!
