因为指的是不同年代出生的人(1905及以前出生-1%-by75岁, 1955及以后出生-6%-by24岁),

gemj,说实话,这道题只能用排除法了。我只知道后四个肯定不对,但是第一个好像也不是很完美。

first, by the age of seventy-five, it refers to {before} 1905

Second, by age twenty-four, it refers to {since} 1955

It used to emphasize (or by contrast two periods of time) that how early the age of American depressed had been since 1955.
