听力原文:Dear Sir,
Last night I watched a Party Political broadcast on television. It was on behalf of the present government and in it the Prime Minister outlined the aims of the government. It made me very angry.
To be fair, their plans for the future of this country are certainly interesting. They say they are going to build more day nurseries for mothers who go out to work, they say they are going to build more schools and increase the grants of university and college students. Then they say they are going to reduce unemployment; improve the National Health Service; cut the cost of dental treatment. And they say they intend to reduce the level of personal taxation. In the same breath they say they are going to cut inflation and thereby reduce the cost of living and help family budgets. Oh, yes, I nearly forgot. They are going to spend millions of pounds on a nuclear defense system to protect us from an enemy attack.
But the question I want to ask is: where are they going to get all the money to put their ideas into practice? Well, I think 1 know the answer. The money is going to come out of the taxpayers' pocket. That's fight. It's you and me who are going to pay the bill.
Sir, may I suggest the present state of the national economy means these plans are not only unrealistic, they're irresponsible and completely unbelievable.
Yours faithfully,
Jennifer Hudson
