  • 第4题:

    单选题
    Which of the following statements is true according to what was said in the recording?
    A

    The dollar rose to a new high against the curd.

    B

    The American economy has rebounded.

    C

    Japan’s economy has not bottomed out yet.

    D

    The performance of many economies in Latin America is less than expected.


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    从录音中提到的“Not only has the American economy rebounded…”,可知美国经济反弹了,即开始发展,因此选B。
    【录音原文】
    Stockmarkets are sliding again; the gold price this week hit a seven-year high of $400 an ounce; and the dollar slumped to a new low against the euro. “So what’s new?” you might ask: the world economy clearly remains fragile. What is new, however, is the recent batch of better-than-expected figures on economic growth around the globe. Not only has the American economy rebounded, but Japan and the euro area are also now growing again, albeit more slowly. The news from some emerging economies is even more bullish. Many economies in Asia and Latin America enjoyed their fastest growth for years in the third quarter. Adding it all together, the world economy as a whole probably enjoyed its fastest growth for two decades. So why are the financial markets showing lack of confidence?

    B

    People buy and sell houses to improve their living conditions.

    C

    Economists believe that residence prices would drop.

    D

    Economists warn people that price rise might slow down.


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    比较结构的理解和判断。录音中提到“despite warnings from some economists that prices cannot continue to rise as steeply as they have in the last few years”,可知经济学家们已向人们发出警告房价不可能继续像过去几年那样飙升了,换句话说,就是房价可能会下降。因此,选项D与录音原文意思相符。
    【录音原文】
    In several metropolitan areas, from Miami to Riverside, Calif., where the real estate market is white hot, rapidly rising prices are luring a growing number of ordinary people into buying and selling residences they do not intend to occupy, despite warnings from some economists that prices cannot continue to rise as steeply as they have in the last few years.

    McDonald’s was very small in scale in the beginning.


    正确答案: D
