问题 PASSAGE THREE
What does "But at least the direction of travel was the same. " in Para. 5 mean?

选项

答案The author thinks that GDP is dubious for now．

解析根据题干定位至第五段。该段第二句提到GDP的增长未能真实反映二战后数十年间生活水平的真正进步，第三句则表明尽管如此，但至少两者过去的变化方向是一致的。然后通过对比引出第五句“但如今，GDP仍在增长(尽管增速更慢)，生活水平却被认为还在原地踏步。”由此可见，作者认为，GDP如今更加不可信了，因为它的发展速度和生活水平不一致，故答案为“The author thinks that GDP is dubious for now．”。

古人的茶道、围棋、抚琴，都以安静功课为根柢，传递出一种深长的静思意味。直到现在，如果能遇到一个自然深入的老者，看他品茶下棋，或者听他弹琴，会发现流露在外边的表演招式几乎没有，而给人流畅舒服的感觉，十分熨帖。这种生活举止甚是雅致，同时又很朴素，一点做作都没有
