The economy of the United States after 1952 was the economy of a well-fed, almost fully employed people. Despite occasional alarms, the country escaped any postwar depression and lived in a state of boom. An economic survey of the year 1955, a typical year of the 1950’s, may be typical as illustrating the rapid economic growth of the decade. The national output was valued at 10 percent above that of 1954 (1955 output was estimated at 392 billion dollars). The production of manufacturers was about 40 percent more than it had averaged in the years immediately following World War II. The country’s business spent about 30 billion dollars for new factories and machinery. National income available for spending was almost a third greater than it had been in 1950. Consumers spent about 256 billion dollars; that is about 700 million dollars a day, or about twenty-five million dollars every hour, all around the clock. Sixty-five million people held jobs and only a little more than two million wanted jobs but could not find them. Only agriculture complained that it was not sharing in the boom. To some observers this was an ominous (不祥 的, 恶兆的) echo of the mid-1920’s. As farmers’ share of their products declined, marketing costs rose. But there were, among the observers of the national economy, a few who were not as confident as the majority. Those few seemed to fear that the boom could not last long and would eventually lead to the opposite—depression.
It can be inferred from the passage that most people in the United States in 1955 viewed the national economy with an air of______.
选项
A、suspicion
B、disappointment
C、confusion
D、confidence
答案
D
解析
本题是一道根据具体细节推断题。问我们可以从文章中推断出美国1955年时大多数人是用什么样的心态来看待其国民经济的。根据文章最后一句话,在那些国民经济评论家当中,有些人并不像大多数人那样充满信心,他们似乎担心这种繁荣不会持久,而终究会向其反面萧条转化。因此,本题的正确答案应是D“自信的心态”。
