问题     Because agriculture is so important to a nation’s well-being, governments have always been concerned with it. For example, the United States and Canada have long produced surpluses that complicate their economies. Surpluses tend to lower prices to farmers and seriously endanger the agriculture industry. Governments have Instituted systems of price supports to maintain a fair price when surpluses cause prices to drop. The system in the United States is a good example. A government program supports the prices paid to farmers for grains, and other agricultural products.
    Support prices are based on parity, which is the ratio between the prices farmers receive for their crops and the prices they must pay for things they need. The government selected the period from 1910 to 1914 as a time when farm prices were in a fair ratio with farming costs. This is the base period now used to determine parity prices.

选项

答案 因为农业对一个国家的健康发展太重要了,所以政府总是非常关注它。比如,美国和加拿大长期生产过剩的农产品,这使其经济复杂化。生产过剩往往降低了农产品的价格,严重威胁到农业生产。如果生产过剩导致价格下降,政府就会实施价格补贴制度,以便维持合理的价格。美国的制度就是一个很好的例子。政府的计划稳定了对农民粮食和其他农产品的采购价格。 制定价格补贴制度的基础是平价制度,平价制度是指农民销售其农产品的价格与他们购买所需物品必须支付的价格之比。政府选择1910年至1914年这段时期作为农产品的价格与农业成本的价格相对合理的阶段。这就是现在被用于确定平价制度的价格的基本周期。
