According to the news, what did NOT happen to US economy? [br]
Consumers put away their wallets in June, sending retail sales plunging by the sharpest amount in nearly two years. Sales of autos, furniture and building supplies all fell, highlighting the economy’s weak spots.
The 0.9 percent drop in retail sales was the biggest decline since August 2005, the Commerce Department reported Friday. It was a far bigger setback than the flat reading that had been forecast.
Part of the weakness was seen as payback for a surprise on the upside in May, when sales surged by 1.5 percent. But the June decline was also viewed as an indication that consumers are cutting back under a barrage of higher prices and a recession in the housing industry.
选项
A、Customers are unwilling to spend money.
B、The former estimate was accurate.
C、There was a rise in retail sales in May.
D、The drop was the biggest decline since 2005.
答案
B
解析
此题是细节判断题,根据"It was a far bigger setback than the flat reading that had been forecast. "可知先前预测是不准确的,低估了零售额下跌的程度,因此B符合题意。
