It started small. Just a political slogan, pasted onto a poster in a back office somewhere; NO EURO in 1999. Germany’s main opposition party, the Social Democrats, planned to print the poster by the thousands for the state elections, and exposed the party’s jingoist(极端爱国主义的)tune. On March 24 the Social Democrats gathered just 25 percent of the vote, their lowest postwar result. The party did almost as poorly in the two other state elections the same day. The big winner; Helmut Kohl and his pet project, the European monetary union, the plan to give the continent a single currency by 1999 and further enclosed Germany into a greater Europe.
Only a few months ago, many Europeans were attacking the EMU. But the day after the state e-lections, Holger Schmieding, senior strategist in Frankfurt, reverses his prognosis(预测)on the EMU’s likelihood from 40-60 against to 60-40 in favor.
At an intergovernmental conference in Italy, the Kohl government gave up some demands for speedy political and diplomatic integration in the interest of pushing the EMU through. French President Jacques Chirac threw in his lot with the German chancellor. Other countries like Spain, Sweden and Italy have recently changed governments and showed a new willingness to introduce EMU-in-spired principles.
The result; the markets have now lined up behind the EMU, driving Europe’s long-term bond yields closer together and pushing other currencies higher against the German mark. All this has supplied a nice tail wind(顺风)for the prospective Euro, the new currency supposed to replace the cash of the first group of "core" countries. "You can trace the changed mood to one clear source— those state elections," says John Lipsky, chief economist in New York. " Before, the working assumption had been that the German public was distrustful of EMU. But this was viewed as the first time it was tested on the ground rather than in public opinion polls. " The EMU, clearly, won.
What can be inferred from the prognosis of Holger Schmieding, the senior strategist?
选项
A、The number of people who are in favor of Euro equals to that who are against.
B、The number of people who are in favor of Euro is larger than that who are against.
C、The number of people who are against Euro is larger than that who are in favor.
D、People become more and more willing to accept Euro as a single European currency.
答案
D
解析
第二段Holger Schmieding reverses his prognosis on the EMU’s likelihood from 40—60 a—gainst to 60—40 in favor,赞同欧元的人数由少于反对的人数变为多于反对的人数,故此可推断越来越多的人开始接受欧元了,故选D。
