试题解析
43.A【精析】该题为细节题。根据第四段第四句“To be significant, the 1981 budget should be cut by at least 20 billion dollars from 616 billion President Carter proposed.”可以看出,为了显著改善通货膨胀情况,1981年卡特总统提议的6160亿的政府预算应该至少减少200亿,即应该大量减少税收来改善通货膨胀情况,故A项符合文意;根据第四段最后一句“It's impossible if you save defense and all the programs indexed for changes in the cost ofliving.”可以看出,我们不可能通过减少国防投入和节省改善大众生活条件项目的资金来减少政府预算,故B项的表述错误;第四段没有关于如何改善人民生活的表述,故不选择C项;根据第四段第一句 “You have to start with revenue and monetary restraint.”可以看出,为了控制通货膨胀,我们应该增强对税收及货币政策的限制,而 D项的表述与文意相反,故不选择D项。
