问题 The following are involved in the plans to cope with the budget deficit EXCEPT
After weeks of negotiations, the governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger has reached an outline agreement with legislative leaders on a plan to tackle the state’s massive budget shortfall. The deal, which will have to be approved by the state legislature, includes plans for billions of dollars in budget cuts, but no tax rises.
    California has a budget shortfall of 26 billion dollars. State workers have been put on short time and many social and education services have been cut. The state has even resorted to issuing IOUs to companies it does business with and to individuals who are owed tax refunds. Governor Schwarzenegger described the comprised deal as a basic agreement to close the state’s huge deficit. He and fellow Republicans have refused to raise taxes, all the opposition Democrats said fought to preserve social services.

选项 A、state workers’ working hour has been reduced.
B、many social and education services have been cut.
C、the state sent out IOUs to companies.
D、the state will impose new taxes on companies.

答案 D

解析 细节判断题。美国加州财政吃紧,财政赤字达260亿美金,州长施瓦辛格采取了一系列财政紧缩政策,如减少州政府工作人员的工作时间,削减社会与教育服务及政府向公司打白条。新闻最后提到州长及其共和党同僚反对提高税赋,所以D的说法是错的,为答案。
