下列对《登岳阳楼》赏析有误的一项是（   ）

A．“昔闻洞庭水，今上岳阳楼”，过去就听说洞庭湖水势浩瀚，名扬海内，今天我登上湖边的岳阳楼，俯仰江山。首联“昔”“今”对照，虚实交错，拉开时间的帷幕，写出初登岳阳楼的喜悦，为全诗浩大的气势奠定了基础。

B．颔联是写洞庭湖的浩瀚无边。洞庭湖坼吴楚、浮日月，波浪滔天，浩茫无际，写景如此壮阔，令人玩索不尽。

C．颈联写诗人年老多病，以舟为家，远离亲友，流落在外，亲朋故旧竟无一字寄给漂泊江湖的我，其凄凉之境、哀痛之心、愤怨之情，不言自明。面对洞庭湖的汪洋浩淼，更加重了身世的孤危感。

D．尾联“戎马”，采用借代手法，指战争。诗人把个人命运和国家前途联系在一起，抒写了诗人的家国之痛，意境深远，余韵无穷，体现了诗人一贯的忧国忧民的大襟怀。至此，伟大诗人的形象突出了，作品的主题也得到了深化。

      Homebuyers nationwide are watching housing prices going up, up, and up."How high can they go?"

is the question on everyone's lips."As long as interest rates stay around 5 percent, nothing might be able

to prevent housing prices going up, " said one house seller in Santa Monica, California.

     "It's crazy, " said Tim, who is looking for a house near the beach."In 1993, I bought my first place,

a twobedroom flat in Venice, for $70,000.My friends thought then that I was overpaying.Five years later,

I had to move.I sold it for $230,000, which was a nice profit.Last year, while visiting friends here, I saw

in the local paper that the exact same flat was for sale for $510,000!"

     It is a seller's market.Homebuyers feel like they have to offer at least 10 percent more than the asking

price.Donna, a new owner of a onebedroom flat on Venice Beach, said, "That's what I did.I told the

owner that whatever anyone offers you, I'll give you $20,000 more under the table, so you don't have

to pay your house seller any of it.I was tired of negotiating with the house sellers."

     Tim says he hopes he doesn't get that desperate."Whether you decide to buy or not, you still feel like

you made the wrong decision.If you buy, you feel like you overpaid.If you don't buy, you want to kick

yourself for passing up a great opportunity."

     Everyone says the bubble (气泡) has to burst sometime, but everyone hopes it will burst the day

after they sell their house.Even government officials have no idea what the future will bring."All we can

say is that, clearly, these things go in regular cycles, " said the state director of housing."What goes up

must come down.But, as we all know, housing prices always stay up a little higher than they go down

(被接受). So you can't lose over the long run.Twenty years down the road, your house is always worth

more than you paid for it."
