He had been forced to take a job stocking shelves at a local grocery store for $8.90 an hour when he couldn't get work fixing floors.On a good day in Australia, he now makes as much as 50 Australian dollars( US $50.21 ) an hourabout twice the amount for a typical flooring job in the US. He plans to start his own flooring business.“I can make what I did in a week in the US in less than a day here”,said Mr. Davila, who lives near a mining boom town in Western Australia.Australian government figures show just under 7,000 Americans currently work on longterm visas, an 80% jump over the past five years.US citizens are now the thirdlargest group applying for socalled 457 work visas, after British and Indian nationals. Americans with degrees in areas such as accounting or mine engineering, as well as other skilled workers,can obtain a nonrenewable(不可更新的) permit for as much as a threeyear stay.After that, they can apply for the renewable 457, which allows up to a fouryear stay.The need for workers is particularly pressing in Western Australia.The mining state's unemployment rate was 4.5% in November, below the national average of 5.2%. Drivers of heavy trucks can pull in sixfigure salaries while experienced crane(起重机) operators can earn hundreds of thousands a year. Attracting skilled workers is a shift for Australia, which historically sent many of its most highly educated to the US and Europe, according to migration data.31_, a growing number of Americans go to work in Australia.AAs a result of the encouragement of AustraliaBAs a result of high unemployment in the USCOut of their ambition of finding valuable resourcesDOut of their determination to realize their dreams32It can be inferred from the passage that 457 work visas are _Afor skilled workers in some fieldsBfor students on the building projectCespecially for American workersDespecially for those out of work33It is implied in the passage that _Aforeigners have to give up their original professional jobs when working in AustraliaBit is possible for foreigners to earn more money in Australia than in their own countriesCthere are more US citizens hoping to work in Australia than from other countriesDAustralians think it fair to exchange their talent with American skilled workers34Which part of Australia needs workers particularly?ANorthwestern Australia.BEastern Australia.CSoutheastern Australia.DWestern Australia.完成句子35I graduated from university twenty years ago and _ ever since.
