2011年12月英語四級閱讀：個稅起征點提至3500

　　全國人民代表大會常務委員會通過了最新版本的個人所得稅法。結果出乎許多人的預料，將個稅起征點提高到3500元，而不是先前的3000元。

　　Chinas top legislature has passed an amendment to personal income tax law， which raises the monthly tax exemption threshold from 2，000 yuan to 3，500 yuan. This new regulation will take effect from September.

　　The adjusted threshold is 500 yuan greater originally proposed in previous drafts in the first and second reading. And the income tax brackets are cut from 9 to 7， with the lowest bracket reduced from 5% to 3%.

　　Owing to the tax adjustment， a large portion of tax is relieved from the shoulders of the middle and low income earners.

　　If we take the example of a person whose salary is 4500 yuan， according to the new law， the amount he has to pay from September would this： 4500 minus the threshold--3500， and then multiplies by tax rate--3%， so the person only has to pay 30 yuan every month. Compare that to the 250 yuan income tax amount he pays right now and its a signficant reduction. The adjustment of the personal income tax is being praised by many citizens.

　　Thanks to the rising of ， we pay less.

　　Im one of the 80s generation and we have a lot of financial pressure， so tax reduction is good for us.

　　The reduction of the income tax is a compensation to the low and middle income earners in the current climate of rising inflation. It also sheds a big burden for the self-employed. The expert from the State Administration of Taxation， Jin Dongsheng， says that about 60 million people dont have to pay income tax any more.

　　The adjustments of the individual income tax law show the government is trying to ease the financial burden for middle and low income earners， and that they are taking the publics view into account. If the threshold is too high， itll damage the publics awareness of paying taxes.

　　Its reported that more than 92 percent of wage earners dont have to pay income tax.

　　Experts say it is a step forward in the countrys tax reform， but some of them， including Jin Dongsheng， also analyze that chinas personal income tax still needs further adjustments in order to suit citizens income structure.

　　Chinas personal income tax should adopt both unified and classified means in order to better adjust income distribution and solve the problems caused by income diversity and varied household burdens. With all these taken into account， it would make a fair society.

　　Tax is reduced， which means that the disposable income of middle and low income population has risen.

　　Hopefully we can see a expanding domestic demand in the near future.
