问题     The biggest price of the U. S. economy, by far, is the consumer sector. It represents 70% of GDP in most years. But consumers suffered historic setbacks in 2017 and 2018. According to a report, 13% of households experienced "substantial financial stress". This compares with only 1% during the previous two recessions. And it is why consumer spending fell so sharply in 2018, as frightened households cut back.
    It has taken years for total household finances to recover fully, but now they have. Total house-hold net worth is now well above its 2016 peak, driven by the recovery in stock prices and home values. Household debt-to-income ratios are the lowest in more than 30 years. And the first half of 2019 has seen employment begin to take off and the unemployment rate has fallen. The overall outlook for consumer spending, the engine of the economy, is healthy again.

选项

答案 迄今为止,美国经济的最大价值是消费者。它在大多数时候占国内生产总值的70%。但消费者在2017年和2018年遭遇了历史性的挫折。根据一份报告,13%的家庭经历了 “巨大的经济压力”。相比之下,在前两次衰退中只有1%。这也是2018年消费者支出大幅下降的原因,因为受到恐慌的家庭纷纷缩减开支。 整个家庭的财政状况需要多年才能完全恢复,但现在已经恢复了。受股票价格和房屋价值回升的推动,房屋净值总额目前远高于2016年的峰值。家庭债务收人比是30多年来的最低值。2019年上半年,就业率开始飞速增长,失业率下降。作为经济引擎的消费者支出总体前景再一次恢复了健康。
