归纳题逻辑疑惑一道

No.23 Neither a rising standard of living nor balanced trade, by itself, establishes a country’s ability to compete in the international marketplace. Both are required simultaneously since standards of living can rise because of growing trade deficits and trade can be balanced by means of a decline in a country’s standard of living. fficeffice" />

If the facts stated in the passage above are true, a proper test of a country’s ability to be competitive is its ability to

A)             balance its trade while its standard of living rises

B)                 balance its trade while its standard of living falls

正确答案是A，可是我选的是B，因为我觉得这个是个归纳题，根据新东方技巧，归纳题的答案一般和文章内容重合越多，越是正确答案，请大家指教！谢谢。
