Many scholars have argued that government investment in manufacturing in the southern United States during the Second World War spurred a regional economic boom that lasted into the postwar period. But much of this investment went to specialized plants, many of them unsuitable for postwar production. Large-scale, wartime government funding led to a massive increase in the number and scale of munitions facilities. By the war’s end, 216 munitions establishment costing more than $3.5 billion had been built, many of them located in the south. Indeed, according to one estimate, more than 70 percent of federally financed manufacturing construction capital in Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, and Tennessee went into munitions plants.
Even in the northern regions with strong prewar manufacturing economics, these plants were difficult to deal with once the imperative of war had been removed. In the south few industrialists had the capacity or desire to transform these factories to a peacetime function. Accordingly, at war’s end almost all of the southern munitions facilities were shut down, placed on standby, operated at a very low capacity, or converted to nonmanufacturing functions, usually storage. Although some reopened a few years later for use during the Korean War, the impact of the special plants on the South’s postwar economy was marginal at best.

选项
A、suggest that some states were better than others at anticipating postwar economic needs
B、identify evidence used to support a view held by scholars mentioned at the beginning of the passage
C、suggest that federal investment in some kinds of manufacturing was excessive
D、identify the states that received the largest allocations of federal funds
E、provide information to support a point about the nature of government investment made earlier in the paragraph
答案
E
解析
定位句3s版本是用来说明政府的投资大量地进入了军工厂,因此选项E正确。the nature of government investment指的就是政府将大量的钱投入了军工厂,而这四个州作为信息来支持这一点。A项文中没提到预测。B项表述相反,文章开头学者的观点是政府投资刺激了经济,但是定位句是用来说明投资没刺激经济的。C、D项要注意,第一段第五句的70%指的是这四个州花的钱多,而不是联邦政府花的钱多。这句话的理解方式是,联邦政府拨了一部分钱给这四个州,这四个州拿到这笔钱后从里面抽出了绝大多数 (70%)投入军事设施,因此是州政府花钱多,而非联邦政府花钱多。另外,文章其实一直讨论的是政府投资有没有刺激南方经济。而这四个州正是美国南方的州。如果你认为联邦政府花的钱多,那么文章应该讨论政府投资没有刺激全国经济才对。
