What is Australia suffering from at present according to the passage? [br]
[17] Australia is now in the grip of a "man drought" where women increasingly outnumber men and a good bachelor is hard to find, according to a new research. From its founding as a British penal colony more than 200 years ago, Australia has traditionally suffered from a gender imbalance where men were more likely to be more numerous than the fairer sex. But what was once an oversupply began to move in the other direction in the 1990s, and single women in their thirties are beginning to wonder where all the men have gone. [18] Salt, who drew on official statistics and the research, said men were increasingly being drawn overseas as part of the internationalization of the labor market. "Our youngest, our brightest, our most ambitious, the slightly more male occupations are being attracted out of Australia, " he said. "It upsets the gender balance. " But it’s not all bad news for Australian women. [19]Salt’s research found the "man drought" did not exist for women in their 20s who could be mistaken for thinking there were too many men, as they had more than enough candidates for their affections. "The man drought kicks in at 34 and then it just gets worse and worse every year thereafter to the point that by the time women hit the 80s. " [20] Salt said the solution for older women was to move out of the cities where the problem of the man drought remained and into the remote, rural farming and mining communities where men were still in plentiful supply, even outnumbering women by more than 20 to one.
选项

D、Overseas attraction.
答案
D
解析
细节题。短文中提到,Salt研究了官方数据,认为随着劳动力市场的国际化,男性越来越多地被吸引到海外工作(men were increasingly being drawn overseas…),由此可知Salt认为产生澳大利亚的人口问题的原因是海外市场的吸引,故答案为[D]。
