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.
Which of the following is TRUE?
选项
A、Economics is the only science that affects our lives.
B、Economics is so complex that there are many terms (术语) that we can not understand.
C、People only know a little about meteorology.
D、Economics is a science about spending money.
答案
B
解析
根据第二段的“Newspapers and television use terminology that can resemble a foreign language.”可以看出,经济学如此复杂,以至于报纸、电视上出现的术语就像是外语一样(让一般人无法理解)。由此可以看出,选项B是正确答案。
