Ⅴ.阅读理解
(2011·高考辽宁卷)The Coalition for the Homeless is an organization that seeks to address the needs of the homeless population in the United States.It is a network of offices,some of which provide food and houses for the homeless population,and some of which fight for the passing of laws that would give every American the right to a place to call home.According to the Coalition’s studies,of over two hundred million people living in the United States,up to three million are homeless-and the number is still growing.Since the late 1970s,fast-rising house prices,large cuts in government supported housing programs,and economic recession(经济衰退)have made it impossible for many Americans to meet housing costs.Sadly,this has resulted in a number of persons being forced to leave their homes and/or unable to find new affordable homes.According to another research,families with children appear to be the fastest-growing part of the homeless population,making up 39% of it.The old idea of a homeless person,that of the single man who gets drunk all the time,is no longer true.A much larger part of the population now finds itself homeless.Even worse,once a person becomes homeless,he often finds it impossible to find a job,since most employers require anyone who wants a job from them to provide a home address on a job application.

A.The passing of new housing laws.
B.The fast growth of family size.
C.The slow construction of houses.
