Text 4 Will the European Union make it?The question would have sounded strange not long ago.Now even the project's greatest cheerleaders talk of a continent facing a“Bermuda triangle”of debt,population decline and lower growth.As well as those chronic problems,the EU faces an acute crisis in its economic core,the 16 countries that use the single currency.Markets have lost faith that the euro zone's economies,weaker or stronger,will one day converge thanks to the discipline of sharing a single currency,which denies uncompetitive members the quick fix of devaluation.Yet the debate about how to save Europe's single currency from disintegration is stuck.It is stuck because the euro zone's dominant powers,France and Germany,agree on the need for greater harmonization within the euro zone,but disagree about what to harmonies.Germany thinks the euro must be saved by stricter rules on borrow,spending and competitiveness,backed by quasiautomatic sanctions for governments that do not obey.These might include threats to freeze EU funds for poorer regions and EU megaprojects and even the suspension of a country's voting rights in EU ministerial councils.It insists that economic coordination should involve all 27 members of the EU club,among whom there is a small majority for freemarket liberalism and economic rigour;in the inner core alone,Germany fears,a small majority favour French interference.A“southern”camp headed by French wants something different:“European economic government”within an inner core of eurozone members.Translated,that means politicians intervening in monetary policy and a system of redistribution from richer to poorer members,via cheaper borrowing for governments through common Eurobonds or complete fiscal transfers.Finally,figures close to the France government have murmured,eurozone members should agree to some fiscal and social harmonization:e.g.,curbing competition in corporatetax rates or labour costs.It is too soon to write off the EU.It remains the world's largest trading block.At its best,the European project is remarkably liberal:built around a single market of 27 rich and poor countries,its internal borders are far more open to goods,capital and labour than any comparable trading area.It is an ambitious attempt to blunt the sharpest edges of globalization,and make capitalism benign.The French proposal of handling the crisis implies that______A.poor countries are more likely to get fundsB.strict monetary policy will be applied to poor countriesC.loans will be readily available to rich countriesD.rich countries will basically control Eurobonds
选项
A.poor countries are more likely to get funds
B.strict monetary policy will be applied to poor countries
C.loans will be readily available to rich countries
D.rich countries will basically control Eurobonds
答案
A
解析
推理题【命题思路】这是一道封闭式推理题,需要锁定文章倒数第二段的信息,从而推理判断得出答案。【直击答案】根据题干信息定位到文章倒数第二段首句“A‘southern'camp headed by French wants…”再根据“implies that”定位到倒数第二段“Translated,…poorer members…”句首的“Translated”是评注性状语,相当于“in other words”。介词短语“from richer to poorer members”作后置定语修饰限定“redistribution”。由此句可知从富国到穷国再分配,即穷国更易得到资金,故A项正确。同时可以判断C项与原文信息不符,故排除。【干扰排除】由原文的分析可知对货币政策进行人为干预,以及对富国到穷国的再分配体制,这些政策都是对穷国有利的,而应该对富国更加严厉,故B项与原文信息相反,不选。第五段第二句“…redistribution…fiscal transfers.”显然对富国不利,故D项错误。
