In the 1970’s there was an oversupply of college graduates. The oversupply caused the average annual income of college graduates to fall to a level only 18 percent greater than that of workers with only high school diplomas. By the late 1980’s the average annual income of college graduates was 43 percent higher than that of workers with only high school diplomas, even though between the 1970’s and the late 1980’s the supply of college graduates did not decrease.

Which of the following, if true, in the late 1980’s, best reconciles the apparent discrepancy described above?

(A) The economy slowed, thus creating a decreased demand for college graduates.

(B) The quality of high school education improved.

(C) Compared to the 1970’s, a greater number of high schools offered vocational guidance programs for their students.

(D) The proportion of the population with at least a college-level education increased.（E）

(E) There was for the first time in 20 years an oversupply of job seekers with only high school diplomas.

答案：E

我选了D，因为大学生对口的工作增加了，虽然毕业人数不变，但普遍工资当然会高。这样理解有什么问题？谢谢大家指教。
