Eurostat figures show that 66 per cent of mothers in the UK work, less than France (72 per cent), Denmark (86 per cent), the Netherland
42、s (78 per cent) or Germany (69 per cent). This not only damages Britains economic prosperityit limits womens careers and squeezes family incomes. It would be fine if this is the choice parents want to make, but it isnt. Half of those surveyed want to go to work and the expense of childcare is one of
43、 the key reasons they couldnt. Despite claims made by Labour (工党 ) about childcare, a forthcoming (即将到来的 ) report by the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) confirms the true legacy of their time in government. They left behind a childcare system with high costs to parents, variable quality
44、and patchy (不均匀的 ) coverage, despite soaring government spending. British parents now face the highest childcare bills in the world after Switzerland. In the Eighties and Nineties under Mrs Thatcher and John Major, the picture was very different. Mothers in England were more likely to go out to work
45、 than their Dutch or German counterparts. But the position has reversed, despite a huge rise in public spending. So why does the British Government spend more on childcare than France or Germany, even though the costs given to parents are sky-high As always, under the previous government, money was
46、frittered away (浪费 ) without adequate focus on improving quality. Instead of clear and transparent funding, four separate funding streams were created, skewing (偏离 ) the market and confusing parents and providers alike. The majority of the money was given away in cash benefits; so much of it did not
47、 get through to the front line. The IPPR report points out that continental systems, in countries such as Germany, France, Denmark and the Netherlands, manage to deliver better value for money. What all of these systems have in common is a focus on quality, with greater flexibility and autonomy give
48、n to local providers. They also see a much higher proportion of government money getting to the front line. 【小题 1】 Which of the following doesnt belong to the disadvantages caused by the mothers prevented from going to work A Damaging Britains economic development. B Causing damage to womens careers. C Decreasing the family incomes. D Causing childcare costs to go up. 【小题 2】 According to the second paragraph, we can infer that the former govern
