问题 President Arling has put his long awaited economic restructuring program before the Congress.It provides a coordinateD.program of investment credits,research grants,education reforms,and changes designed to make American industry morecompetitive.This is necessary to reverse economic slide into unemployment,lack of growth,and trade deficits that haveplagued the economy for the past six years.The most liberal wing of the President’s party has called for stronger and more direct action.They want an incomes policyto check inflation while federal financing helps rebuild industry behind a wall of protective tariffs.The Republicans,however,decry even the modest,graduated tax increases in the President’s program.They want taxcuts and more open market.They say if federal money has to be injected into the economy,let it through defence spending.Both these alternatives ignore the unique nature of the economic problem before us.It is not simply a matter of markets orfinancing.The new technology allows vastly increased production for those able to master it.But it also threatens those whofail to adopt it with permanent second-class citizenship in the world economy.If an industry cannot lever itself up to the leading stage of technological advances,then it will not be able to compete effectively.If it cannot do this,no amount of governmentprotectionism or access to foreign markets can keep it profitable for long.Without the profits and experience of technological excellence to reinvest,that industry can only fall still further behind its foreign competitors.So the crux is the technology and that is where the President’s program focused.The danger is not that a plan will not bepassed,it is that the ideologues of right and left will distort the bill with amendments that will blur its focus on technology.Theeconomic restructuring plan should be passed intact.If we fail to restructure our economy now,we may not get a secondchance.The focus of the President’s program is on_______.A.investment.B.economy.C.technology.D.tax.

选项 A.investment.
B.economy.
C.technology.
D.tax.

答案 C

解析本题考查主旨。

C选项，工艺技术。最后一段第一句“问题的症结就在于工艺技术，这就是总统计划的要点所在。”第四段:“对掌握新技术的人来说，新技术使他们大大增产，而新技术对不能掌握它的人来说，在世界经济中他们面临沦为永久性的二等公民的危险。如果不能做到这一点，那么任何政府保护主义，进入国际市场都不能有效地竞争。如果不能有技术优势的利润和经验再投资，工业只能进一步落后于国外竞争对手。”这些都说明总统计划的重点在于工艺技术。综上，C选项正确。

A选项，投资，不合题意，故排除。

B选项，经济。太笼统了，故排除。

D选项，税收。只是总统计划的一个涉及面，故排除。

故正确选项为C。
