问题 The main idea of the first paragraph is that ______.
Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE, according to the passage?
选项 A、Slaves in Greece in the sixth century BC were not politically significant.
B、The "burghers" of the later Middle Ages constituted an entirely new social class.
C、To some extent, social mobility can be attributed to the growth of trade.
D、The new class made up of traders and executive officials of the later Middle Ages made the development of a money economy possible.
答案D
解析 本题考查在对全文理解的基础上进行推理的能力。A项认为“公元前6世纪的希腊，奴隶在政治上是无关紧要的”，这与原文中所提到的奴隶无政治权的意思相符，所以不应选A。文中第三段写道：中世纪后期，货币经济的发展和城市与贸易的增长促进了另一个阶层的崛起——自由民或商人和市长的崛起，并提到一个地方的人转移到另一个地方越来越容易。因此B项认为“中世纪后期的自由民组成了一个全新的社会阶层”，这与原文相符。C项认为“在某种程度上，社会流动性促进了贸易的增长，从对整个第三段的理解，且根据日常知识，我们可判断C是正确的。D项认为“中世纪后期的商人和执行官员使货币经济的发展得以实现”。这与原文不符，所以D项是不正确的，应选D。
