The Mexican economy suffered a disastrous decline in the second three months of 2009, with the gross domestic product dropping 10.3 percent from the same period last year, according to government figures. Analysts say the main cause of Mexico’s sharp drop is that the nation’s economy has strong relation with that of the United States, which is in the deepest economic downturn since the 1930s. Other factors leading to the Mexican economy down include a tourism decline caused by the H1N1 flu outbreak, declining oil and tax revenues, and fewer Mexicans abroad sending money back home. Oil revenues, long Mexico’ s main source of money, are being hurt by lower global prices and declining production. Remittances from Mexicans working abroad, most of them in the United States, also have suffered the economic downturn. Fewer jobs in the United States mean fewer opportunities for Mexicans to find work and send money home. Remittances rank after oil in terms of revenue for the country. That revenue is expected to decrease even more this year. Tourism, Mexico’ s third-largest source of revenue, has declined steadily since an outbreak of the H1N1 flu which was first discovered in Mexico in April.
5. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a cause of the current decline in the Mexican economy?
6. What is the main reason for dropping in remittances from abroad?
7. Which is the third-largest source of revenue in Mexico?
选项
A、The declining oil production.
B、The outbreak of the H1N1 flu.
C、The declining GDP in Mexico.
D、The economic downturn in the US.
答案
D
解析
细节推断题。由Remittances from Mexicans working abroad,most of them in the United States,also have suffered the economic downturn.Fewer jobs in the United States mean fewer opportunities for Mexicans to find work and send money home.可知,在外国工作的墨西哥人侨汇也受到了经济衰退的影响,其大部分人是在美国工作。在美国工作机会的缺失就意味着墨西哥人的工作机会少了,寄钱回国也就少了。也就是说,墨西哥人侨汇的减少是因为美国经济的衰退,故选D。
