The recent decline in the value of the dollar was triggered by a prediction of slower economic growth in the coming year. But that prediction would not have adversely affected the dollar had it not been for the government's huge budget deficit, which must therefore be decreased to prevent future currency declines.

Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the conclusion about how to prevent future currency declines?

正确答案: D

61. The recent decline in the value of the dollar was triggered by a prediction of slower economic growth in the coming year. But that prediction would not have adversely affected the dollar had it not been for the government’s huge budget deficit, which must therefore be decreased to prevent future currency declines.



Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the conclusion about how to prevent future currency declines?


(A) The government has made little attempt to reduce the budget deficit.


(B) The budget deficit has not caused a slowdown in economic growth.


(C) The value of the dollar declined several times in the year prior to the recent prediction of slower economic growth.


(D) Before there was a large budget deficit, predictions of slower economic growth frequently caused declines in the dollar’s value. D


(E) When there is a large budget deficit, other events in addition to predictions of slower economic growth sometimes trigger declines in currency value.


Since C supports the claim that a budget deficit is the underlying cause of the currency decline, C is inappropriate. ------OG对C的解释是什么意思,怎么构成加强?

把文章简化就是A(经济增长会变慢的预测)和B(政府巨额赤字)同时发生会导致C(美元下跌),结论因此要防止B发生。


题目,要求削弱,正确答案是A发生就可以导致C,不用防止B


C的意思是A没有发生就导致C了,潜在的意思就是是B导致C发生的。所以是支持。

还是没明白

题目:最近对经济变缓的预测导致美元下跌,但是如果政府不出现赤字,美元是不会下跌的。(因此为了防止美元下跌)就要防止政府出现赤字。


削弱:美元下跌与政府赤字无关


加强:美元下跌与政府赤字有关


C) The value of the dollar declined several times in the year prior to the recent prediction of slower economic growth.


C:美元已经下跌了几次因为经济变缓的预测。----怎么支持?

看来你是在意思的理解上有点偏差,C的意思是在预测经济变慢之前,美元已经下降了好几次。排除了预测经济变慢使美元下降的原因。

不好意思,这句话看得不大懂.

that prediction would not have adversely affected the dollar had it not been for the government’s huge budget deficit, 是不是倒装句,原句应该是:

that prediction would not have adversely affected the dollar if it had not been for the government’s huge budget deficit

谁能帮忙解释一下? 多谢

But that prediction would not have adversely affected the dollar(if) had it not been for the government’s huge budget deficit, which must therefore be decreased to prevent future currency declines.(虚拟语气省略if)
    

先翻译: 最近美元贬值是由于对来年经济放缓的预测引发的. 但是对来年的经济预测将不会反作用于美元如果政府没有出现大规模的预算赤字, 大规模的预算赤字一定会降低阻止未来流通货币贬值的可能性(即大规模预算赤字导致美元贬值)

这里的反作用指: 对来年的经济预测会导致美元贬值
