Unit 4 Pygmalion 导读：在中国有这样一群人，人们习惯称他们为“农民工(migrant workers)”。 他们背井离乡，工作艰苦，却收入微薄。 而就在上周，这个昔日默默无闻的群体却成为《时代》杂志评选出的2009年度人物。中国不断创造发展神话，在世界经济复苏中扮演着重要角色，庞大的农民工团体功不可没。 Task: Why is it necessary for us to read? Time honors the ‘Chinese migrant workers In China, they are known as nongmingong, meaning “farmers－turned－workers”， a term that likely means more in Chinese than it does in English. And now this important segment(部分)of the Chinese workforce have come to world prominence(声望), thanks to Time magazine naming them runners－up to Ben Bernanke in its latest Person of the Year awards. The fact that the nongmingong were singled out shows their importance on the global stage. Leaving behind families and homes to migrate to Chinas cities, they take on largely manual work and are among the countrys lowest－paid workers. They often go about their work in relative obscurity(不出名), despite numbering around 200 million. This year, Chinas year－on－year Gross Domestic Product (GDP)growth is set to exceed 8 percent. The growth rate means it will contribute about 20 percent of this years global economic growth. Analysts(分析人士)said the countrys nongmingong were an important part of the economic miracle in recent years. 请根据语义及提示写出单词 　1.
