问题 Which of the following best describes the America’s economic situation?
How does monetary policy offer help for weak economic activity?

选项 A、It can stimulate investment in new plant and equipment.
B、It can reduce interest rates so as to stimulate weak economic activity.
C、The Fed tries to keep inflation low.
D、President Bush can offer appropriate monetary policy.

答案B

解析 这是一道细节题。题干中的信号词为monetary policy,出自于文章第四段第一句话。文章第三段指出:格林斯潘先生已经明确表示,如果美联储认为有必要,它随时准备再次降低利率。第四段指出:货币政策仍为疲软的经济活动提供最好的短期政策回应,并且由于通货膨胀率较低,美联储还有进一步减息的余地。这说明,货币政策可以通过减息来刺激经济。B说“它可以降低利率,以便刺激疲软的经济活动”,这与文章的意思符合。文中没有说货币政策可以激励投资者投资新厂房和新设备,所以A不对;文中没有提到C;D明显与题目的要求无关。
