OG11-45

According to some analysts, the gains in the stock market reflect growing confidence that the economy will avoid the fecession that many had feared earlier in the year and instead come in for a soft landing, followed by a gradual increase in business activity.

正确答案就是划线句子，我有疑问的是主句是好好的一般现在时态，怎么到了从句中就变成了过去完成时，我记得新东方老师说过过去完成时不要轻易用，只有跟着一般过去时态连着用才可以，怎么到了这里无缘无故地出现了这个时态？

经济将会避免在今年早些时候曾经一度恐惧的衰退，应该是recession吧，

earlier in the year时间点在过去的某一个时间点，这里用过去完成时是表示fear这个动作发生在过去那刻且已经完成，强调现在不再fear

这句话是挺怪的

已有前辈分析，当成一个固定搭配吧，就像never常和have/has搭配一样
