问题     While in America the trend started as a reaction to the economic decline—after the mass redundancies caused by downsizing in the late 1980s—and is still linked to the politics of thrift, in Britain, at least among the middle-class down-shifters of my acquaintance, we have different reasons for seeking to simplify our lives.
    For the women of my generation who were urged to keep juggling through the 1980s, downshifting in the mid-’90s is not so much a search for the mythical good life—growing your own organic vegetables, and risking turning into one—as a personal recognition of your limitations.
选项
答案 这一趋势在美国是对经济衰落的反映，它是在20世纪80年代后期企业缩小规模致使大规模裁员之后才开始，现在仍和节俭的观点密切相关；而在英国，至少在我所认识的那些过慢节拍生活的中产阶级当中，寻求朴素的生活方式却有着不同的原因。 对于我们这一代经历过20世纪80年代被督促着不停地应对生活的女人来说，20世纪90年代中期放慢节拍与其说是在寻找一种神话般的美好生活——自己种植有机绿色蔬菜，冒险转入这样的生活——不如说是对你自己局限的一种认识。
