问题 What does the passage mainly talk about? [br]  
At one point on Friday afternoon, Twitter’s stock was trading for under $ 16. 50 a share, down from nearly $25 earlier this month, when acquisition rumors began heating up. One analyst says it may be time for some cost-cutting, including layoffs, since the firm hasn’t been able to grow its way to profitability.
Thanks mainly to low unemployment, Germany keeps exceeding tax forecasts, with receipts that other European countries must envy. Last year state revenues totaled ￠620 billion; by 2017 they will pass ￠700 billion. This bounty is letting Germany balance its federal budget in 2015 for the first time in 46 years.
选项 A、The rate of employment is higher than some European countries.
B、Its financial conditions keep a good momentum.
C、Its federal budget has been rarely balanced during 46 years.
D、It will be better to lower the taxes.
答案 D
解析 从原文中“This bounty is letting Germany balance its federal budget in 2015 for the first time in 46 years”可以看出这次国家总税收值让德国联邦政府的预算第一次平衡了。因此，选项C的说法与原文大意正好相符。同时，也可以从文中推断出A和B的说法也是可以接受的。
