问题     Hyperinflation (极度通货膨胀) is defined as an economic condition during which there is steep increase in price.
    In accordance with the laws of economics, three factors combine to create this condition. Firstly, demand must be much greater than the supply of available goods. Secondary, the country must continuously create and thereby build up an ever increasing supply of money. Thirdly, the governmental processes that are used to collect taxes must be destroyed.
    Let’s imagine a country where production is barely accomplishing its goal: to keep up with demand. When this happens, the government should decrease the salaries of the workers by raising taxes. But the government is powerless to collect the taxes, so it prints more money to make up for the goods it must purchase. This new money goes to the workers who produced the goods; as a result, the people are not forced to give up certain things for a while. They actually become richer. While this might appear to be a positive step, it is actually worse off. Every month the government is forced to print more and more money so as to increase the amount of goods it can purchase until it is destroyed. The only way to prevent total economic breakup in such a situation is for the government to increase taxes in a manner that is characterized by equality to every one involved.
When production can not keep up with demand, the government which is. powerless in collecting taxes ______.
选项 A、can decrease the production amount
B、has to provide more money
C、has to encourage production amount
D、can increase workers’ salary
答案B
解析 事实细节题，本题询问当生产不能满足需求时，在征税方面无能为力的政府会怎样做。根据文章第三段第三句话可知当政府在征税方面显得无能为力时，就会发行更多的货币以补偿应该购买的货物，故选项B(不得不提供更多的货币)为正确答案。选项A(降低生产量)、选项C(不得不鼓励提高生产量)以及选项D(可以增加工资)在文章当中没有提到，故不选。
