单项选择题
Why do people doubt about the pickup of Japan’s economy
A.Low domestic demand.
B.High energy cost.
C.Deflation.
D.Weaker economic growth in the U.S. and China.
答案
参考答案:B
解析:因果关系的判断。根据原文第一段最后一句“…Japan’s rebound is cast in doubt as investors worry about inflationary pressures caused by the high cost of energy.”即“日本的反弹蒙上阴影,因为投资者担心能源费用过高而带来的通货膨胀压力”,由此可见,选项b的说法是正确的。 注意:掌握信号词,正确判断语义逻辑关系。上句中信号词as和caused by均表明了上下文存在因果关系。
