When Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected President of the United States in 1932, not only the United States but also the rest of the world was in the throes of an economic depression. Following the termination of World War I, Britain and the United States at first experienced a boom in industry. Called the Roaring Twenties, the 1920s ushered ina number of things-prosperity, greater equality for women in the work world, rising consumption, and easy credit. The outlook for American business was rosy.
October 1929 was a month that had catastrophic economic reverberations worldwide. The American stock market witnessed the "Great Crash," as it is called, and the temporary boom in the American economy came to a standstill. Stock prices sank, and panic spread. The ensuing unemployment figure soared to 12 million by 1932.
Germany in the postwar years suffered from extreme deprivation because of burdensome compensation it was obliged to pay to the Allies. The country’s industrial capacity had been greatly diminished by the war. Inflation, political instability, and high unemployment were factors helpful to the growth of the initial Nazi party. Germans had lost confidence in their old leaders and heralded the arrival of a messiah-like figure who would lead them out of their economic wilderness. Hitler promised jobs and, once elected, kept his promise by providing employment in the party, in the newly expanded army, and in munitions factories.
Roosevelt was elected because he promised a."New Deal" to lift the United States out of the doldrums of the depression. Following the principles advocated by Keynes, a British economist, Roosevelt collected the spending capacities of the federal government to provide welfare, work, and agricultural aid to the millions of down-and-out Americans. Elected President for four terms because of his innovative policies, Roosevelt succeeded in dragging the nation out of the depression before the outbreak of World War Ⅱ. [br] We can infer that the author of this passage______.
选项
A、disapproves of Roosevelt’s "New Deal"
B、thinks the Depression could have been avoided
C、blames the Depression on the "Great Crash"
D、feels there was some similarity between Roosevelt and Hitler
答案
D
解析
本题询问作者的观点。可将选项与原文一一对照,从而排除错误答案。A表示作者不赞成罗斯福的新政,文中虽未直接提及作者态度,但最后一段对新政成效的描述表明了作者持肯定的态度。B是说作者认为大萧条本是可以避免的,此说法不仅与常识违背,而且从第三段对德国的具体描写可知作者认为大萧条有其必然性。C项的“blames...on”意为“把……归咎于”,即表示作者把大萧条归咎于Great Crash。由第二段可知,Great Crash只是大萧条开始的一个表现或是导火线,而不能成为其根本原因。三、四两段采用了对比的手法,将
