Of all the sciences, only two are subjects that have a direct (直接的) and noticeable effect on our lives every day. One is meteorology, the study of weather. Heat, cold, sun and rain affect us in many ways—in the kind of clothing we wear, for example, and the types of activities we do outdoors. Economics is the other science that affects the everyday lives of all of us. Each time we spend money, or it is spent on us, we are contributing (贡献) the economic life of our country and, in fact, of the world.
Most people have a basic understanding of the weather, but how many people feel comfortable with the subject of economics? Often, economics seems to be a mysterious (神秘的) subject. Newspapers and television use terminology (术语学) that can resemble (像;类似) a foreign language. They speak of the gross national product, the cost of living, the prime rate, the money supply, productivity, the unemployment rate, the balance of payments, and so forth.
In some ways, economics is like an enormous jigsaw puzzle (拼图游戏). Each piece is basic, but the pieces interconnect, one to another, in a large picture. To look at the whole picture, you must begin piece by piece.
The passage suggests that we should examine economics little by little because ______.
选项
A、economics affects the everyday lives of all of us
B、economics is different from meteorology
C、economics is quite complex as a whole
D、studying economies is like playing with jigsaw puzzle
答案
C
解析
文章的最后一段将经济学比作拼图游戏,每一个小块都是基础,而整体又如此复杂,所以研究它时必须从小处着手,一步一步地来。选项C的内容与此意思相同,所以是正确答案。
