问题 Which one below is correct?
Fertility rates in the United States are continuing their decades-long decline, due in large part to a steep slide in teenage pregnancies down to historic lows, according to a new government report released Thursday. The report only examined the trajectory of pregnancy rates through 2009, stopping there because more recent data on abortions is not available yet. But newer statistics on birth rates suggest the decline is continuing, though not as quickly as it did in recent years when the recession accelerated trends well underway.

选项 A、Birth rates in the US are soaring up in recent years.
B、Birth rates have reached the lowest point in the US.
C、Teenage pregnancies have gone down to historic lows in the US.
D、The report shows the birth rates in the US in the past 10 years.

答案 C

解析 新闻开头便指出美国的人口出生率持续下降,指出这在很大程度上是因为“a steepslide in teenage pregnancies down to historic lows”,可见美国的青少年怀孕比率降至历史最低点,因此C项正确。
