问题     The business cycle is composed of many phases and one of them is the expansion phase. This phase is a two-fold one, including recovery and prosperity.
    During the recovery period there is an ever-growing expansion of existing equipment. And new facilities for production are created. More businesses are created and older ones expanded. Improvements of serious kinds are made. There is an ever increasingly positive view about the future of economic growth. Much capital is invested in machinery or "heavy" industry. More labor is employed. More raw materials are required.
    As more parts of the economy develop, other parts are affected. For example, the expansion in automobiles results in an expansion of the steel and rubber industries. Roads are required; thus the cement and machinery industries are activated. Demand for labor and materials results in greater prosperity for workers and suppliers of raw materials. This increases the amount of goods bought and sold. Thus prosperity develops among the various parts of the population.
    This prosperity period may continue to rise without an obvious end. However, a time comes when this phase reaches a peak and stops going upwards. This is the end of the expansion phase. [br] We can infer from the last paragraph that ______ .
选项 A、economic expansion is fast
B、the business can expand endlessly
C、the end of one business expansion will certainly happen
D、economic rise to the peak is slow
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。本题询问我们可以从最后一段中推断出什么结论。根据文章最后一段可知经济扩张达到繁荣阶段停止不前，意味着扩张阶段的结束；又根据文章第一段的内容可知经济发展是周期性的，由此可知一种商业的繁荣一定会结束，这是不可避免的。故选项C为正确答案。选项A(经济扩张的速度是很快的)在文章中没有涉及，故不选。选项B(商业会无止境地扩张)与文章最后一句话意思相反。选项D(经济发展到顶峰的速度是很慢的)在文中没有提到，故不选。
