Investment in the public sector, such as electricity, irrigation, public services and transport increased by about 10%, although the emphasis moved to the transport and away from the other sectors mentioned. Trade and services recorded a 16% to 17% investment growth, including a 30% increase ininvestment in business premises. Industrial investment is estimated to have risen by 8%. Although the share of agriculturein total gross investment in the economy continued to decline, investment grew by 9% in absolute terms, largely spurred onby a 23% expansion of investment in agricultural equipment. Housing construction had 12% more invested in it in 1964, not so much owing to increased demand, as to fears of new taxes and limitation of building.
Total consumption in real terms rose by close on 11% during 1964, and per capita personal consumption by under 7%, as in 1963. The undesirable trend towards a rapid rise inconsumption, evident in previous years, remained unaltered. Since at current prices consumption rose by 16% and disposable income by 14%, there was evidently a fall in the rate of saving in the private sector of the economy. Once again consumption patterns indicated a swift advance in the standard of living. Expenditure on food declined in significance, although consumption of fruit increased. Spending on furnitureand household equipment, health, education and recreation continued to increase. The greatest proof of altered living standards was the rapid expansion of expenditure on transport and private services of all kinds, which occurred during 1964. The progressive wealth of large sectors of the public was demonstrated by the changing composition of durable goods purchased. Saturation point was rapidly being approached for items such as the first household radio, gas cookers, and electric refrigerators, whereas increasing purchases of automobiles and television sets were registered.
30. Why does the speaker think that the trend towards a rapid rise in consumption was undesirable?
31.In what respect did expenditure increase according to the passage?
32.What can be inferred from the increase of fruit consumption?
选项

C、It made people consume less.
D、It encouraged luxury consumption.
答案
A
解析
选项中的It made people save less, It increased…the poor等表明,本题与It的影响有关,听音时注意It指代什么。短文中提到,导致这种结果是因为evidently a fall in the rate of saving,[A]的表述与原文相符,故为答案。
