问题 Which of the following statements about the Tesla factory is true?
Tesla Motor’s forthcoming battery factory in northern Nevada is expected to create over 20, 000 jobs, making a dent in the 7. 7% unemployment rate and helping the struggling housing market.
   Nevada has 95, 000 unemployed. The four counties nearest to the planned Tesla in northern Nevada have 18, 296 unemployed, according to Nevada state demographer.
   It’s said Tesla will create up to 6, 500 new on-site jobs with an average wage in excess of $ 25 per hour. Tesla expects to employ 6, 500 workers by the eighth year the factory is open.
   It’s reported that 16, 000 indirect jobs will also be created — generating an economic impact of nearly $ 40 billion over 20 years.
   16% of the jobs are expected to be in retail trade; 13% in wholesale trade; 12% in construction and administrative and support services. Professional, scientific, and technical services at 11% ; food services at 8% and Health Care at 8% .
   It’s also expected that in next 3 years, the "Tesla bump" will increase the state’s population by about 4, 000 people — with a total increase of 35, 000 in the next two decades, an increase of about 1. 3 percent of the state population of 2. 8 million.
   Tesla is also expected to help the Nevada housing market, where one in 520 homes is in foreclosure — one of the worst rates in America.
   Over the next two decades, the state expects to pick up 28, 000 immigrants looking for housing — meaning some 10, 500 new households.
   Near the factory will likely see the greatest spike in home purchases and rentals. Some 17, 000 units went vacant in the past 10 years.
   The influx of residents also is expected to generate an increase in sales and property tax revenue and could also create an indirect improvement in services such as health care.
   The factory is expected to create enough lithium-ion battery packs for 500, 000 electric cars by 2020.
   It’s said Tesla will create and secure a new "manufacturing base" in northwestern Nevada that has the potential for even more spin off sectors.

选项 A、It has been created to reduce unemployment and to help stock market.
B、It will provide 9, 500 jobs for the local community.
C、It is a factory that produces lithium ion battery.
D、Its average wage is $ 15.

答案 C

解析 从文章题目“新建工厂有望扩大就业”可知,工厂尚未建立,故A选项错误;根据原文“Nevada is expected to create over 20,000 jobs”可知,B项错误;根据“It’s said Tesla will create up to 6,500 new on-site jobs with an average wage in excess of $25 per hour”可判断D错误。故只有C项“Tesla是个锂电池厂”是正确的,这可以从下文“The factory is expected to create enough lithium ion battery packs for…”得到确认。
