A severe drought can actually lessen the total amount of government aid that United States farmers receive as a group. The government pays farmers the amount, if any, by which the market price at which crops are actually sold falls short of a preset target price per bushel for the crops. The drought of 1983, for example, caused farm-program payments to drop by $ 10 billion. Given the information above, which of the following, if true, best explains why the drought of 1983 resulted in a reduction in farm-program payments?
选项
A、Prior to the drought of 1983, the government raised the target price for crops in order to aid farmers in reducing their debt loads.
B、Due to the drought of 1983, United States farmers exported less food in 1983 than in the preceding year.
C、Due to the drought of 1983, United States farmers had smaller harvests and thus received a higher market price for the 1983 crop than for the larger crop of the preceding year.
D、Due to the drought of 1983, United States farmers planned to plant smaller crops in 1984 than they had in 1983.
E、Despite the drought of 1983, retail prices for food did not increase significantly between 1982 and 1983.
答案
C
解析
解释矛盾题重点要抓住解释对象的关键词与矛盾点,本题的关键词应为1983,矛盾点应与“价格或钱”有关,寻找一个能够直接解释的现象,不能有自己的推理。通过考虑总量与单位这两方面因素,可以发现(C)实现了问题目的,所以(C)正确。
