Investment in the public sector, such as electricity, irrigation, public services and transport(excluding vehicles, ships and planes)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 in investment in business premises. Industrial investment is estimated to have risen by 8% . Although the share of agriculture in total gross investment in the economy continued to decline, investment grew by 9% in absolute terms, largely spurred on by 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 capital personal consumption by under 7%, as in 1963. The undesirable trend towards a rapid rise in consumption, evident in previous years, remained unaltered. Since at current prices consumption rose by 16% and disposable income by 13%, 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 furniture and household equipment, health, education and recreation continued to increase. The greatest proof of altered living standards was the rapid expansion of expenditure on transport(including private cars)and personal 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(饱和)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.
The author thinks that the trend towards a rapid rise in consumption was "undesirable" because______.
选项
A、people saved less
B、people were wealthy
C、people consumed less
D、expenditures on luxuries increased
答案
A
解析
文章的第二段中提到“The undesirable trend towards a rapid rise in consumption,evident in previous years,remained unaltered.Since at current prides consumption rose by 16% and disposable income by 13%,there was evidently a fall in the rate of saving in the private sector of the economy.”由此可以看出,作者之所以认为趋势“不受欢迎”,是因为人们的储蓄减少了。A项符合文章的意思。文中只是说个人消费率增长了13%,并没有说人们富有了,因此B不对。C项与文章的内容相反,也不对。在文章的最后指出很多的奢侈品供应迅速趋于饱和,由此可知D也不对。所以本题的正确答案为A。
