請依下文回答第 43 題至第 45 題:
China is continuing an anti-corruption effort by targeting officials who have family members and property outside the
country. People in China are asking how many officials have moved money out of the country, and how likely it is that
they will be caught.
A local official in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen resigned her position after reports said her husband had moved
to the United States. It caused people to start talking about what are called “naked officials” in China. That is the name
people give to government officials who stay in China, but send their spouses or children to live in another country. Some
people believe this gives the officials a place to send money that they have stolen from the government without being
discovered by anti-corruption investigators.
The government requires all officials to report the residential status of their family members to tell if their family members
are staying in China, or actually migrated to other countries. However, a lot of officials have not reported this information
fully and it is really hard to verify if the information is true.
The Communist Party has put in place new rules urging officials with family members living in other countries to either
bring them back to China or resign. And in recent months, anti-corruption investigators have been looking at local
officials. Chinese media reported that all local governments had completed an investigation of where officials and their
families live. Some local governments said they had no “naked officials.” But most did not release the findings of their
investigation.
Only Guangdong Province reported problems. It said it had 2,190 “naked officials.” And it said it had already removed
866 of them. Because most local governments did not release the results of their investigation, many people are asking
questions about how severe the problem is. The debate has also shown how little people in China know about the wealth
of their local and national leaders. For many years, officials have been discussing a plan that would force government
leaders to tell about their wealth. 【題組】44 How does the Chinese government get the residential status of the officials’ family members?
(A) By police investigation (B) Through reports by officials’ relatives
(C) By residents’ investigation (D) Through the officials’ own reports
