　　原文与解析：

　　Organizations like the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund expect the international economy to perform better this year than in 2013. They also expect economic conditions to improve the next year.

　　Yet one United Nations agency worries that (13) economic progress is not creating enough jobs for the millions of people seeking employment. The U.N.'s International Labor Organization (ILO) is saying current economic growth has not helped the world's unemployed.

　　The ILO released a report on employment this week. Guy Ryder of Britain is the Director General of the agency. He says the unemployment numbers for 2013 represent an increase from the year before. That means new jobs created by economy growth are not keeping up with the number of people entering the job market. "The bottom line figure for 2013 is that there are nearly 202 million people around the world unemployed, and that represents an increase of nearly five million on the previous year," said Ryder. The ILO says (14) much of the increase came from East and South Asia—they were responsible for nearly half of the additional job seekers, and many others came from sub-Saharan Africa and Europe.

　　One question is whether the current period of economic growth is leading to job creation. The ILO says, based on current information, the world will have 18 million more jobless individuals by 2018, many of these are young people between the ages of 15 and 24. Guy Ryder says youth unemployment is a major concern. "(15) Young people are the particular victims of unemployment: 74.5 million of the unemployed, aged between 15 and 24, that is one million more than the year before," said Ryder. The ILO says youth unemployment worldwide is over 13 percent.

　　13. What is the United Nations agency worried about?

　　14. Where is the increased world unemployment mostly from?

　　15. What do we know about youth unemployment?

　　【小题13】短文提到，某联合国机构担心经济发展并不能为数百万求职者创造足够的就业机会。因此可以判断 C 选项“经济发展没有带来足够的新的工作机会”与短文所述一致。

　　【小题14】短文提到，新增的失业人数很大一部分来自东亚和南亚，这两个地区求职者的人数占新增求职者的总人数将近一半。所以， B 选项与短文内容相符。

　　【小题15】短文提到，失业者尤以年轻人居多。因此选项 B 与短文内容相符。
