1Choose the best answer (根据文章内容，选择最恰当的答案) Traditionally, the President is thehighest-pad public employee. A salary of $ 400,000, along with other benefits,is paid to the President annually. But President Obama’s income for 2008 was far more than that,according to the White House. The White House recently published the taxreturns (纳税申报单)of Obamaand Vice –president Joe Biden. Tax returns are reports of tax thata person has to pay. They often include income information used to calculatethe tax. In the US, people whose incomes are over a certain amount have to filetax returns(纳税申报)everyyear. The tax returns of government officials are open to the public. Thistransparency helps to prevent corruption(腐败)。 From Obama’s tax returns , we can see that the Presidentand first lady President’s two books Dreams From My Father and The Audacity ofHope(《无畏的梦想》). The twobooks, published in 1995 and 2006,are very popular and have been on thebestseller(畅销书)list for a long time. The Obama’s income is down from 2007,when they made ＄4.2 million. However, that is stillfar more than former US President George Bush earned, who reported a total of ＄719,274 for his final year. The Obamas’ income also greatlyexceeded(超出)that of Biden,who reported a family income of ＄2269,256.That’s about a tenth ofwhat the Obamas earned. As Vice-president, Biden earns a salary of ＄220,000.US families earn an averageincome of about ＄50,000. The Obama’s tax returns also show that together, thePresident and his wife paid about ＄933,000 in taxes. They gave $172,050 —nearly 6.5 percentof their earnings —to different charity groups. In the US, if a persongives his money to churches and non-profit(非盈利)organizations, the law reduces his or her taxes.
