forecasts for global growth have been toned down(,不容乐观,),，,even as oil prices sink lower and,lower.Does,that mean the link between lower oil prices and growth has weakened?,Some experts say there are still good reasons to believe cheap oil should heat up the world,economy.Consumers,have more money in their pockets when they,re paying less at the,pump.They,spend that money on other things,，,which stimulates the economy.,The biggest gains go to countries that import most of their oil like China,，,Japan,，,and,India.But,doesn,t the extra money in the pockets of those countries,consumers mean an equal loss in oil-producing countries,，,cancelling,out the gains,？,“,Not necessarily,，,”,says economic researcher Sara,Johnson.,“,Many,oil producers built up huge reserve funds when prices were high,，,so when prices fall they will draw on their reserves to support government spending and subsidies(,补贴,)for their consumers.,”,But not all oil producers have big,reserves.In,Venezuela,，,collapsing oil prices have sent its economy into free fall.,Economist Carl Weinberg believes the negative effects of plunging oil prices are overwhelming the positive effects of cheaper,oil.The,implication is a sharp decline in global trade,，,which has plunged(,暴跌,)partly because oil-producing nations can,t afford to import as much as they used to.,Sara Johnson acknowledges that the global economic benefit from a fall in oil prices today is likely lower than it was in the,past.One,reason is that more countries are big oil producers now,，,so the nations suffering from the price drop account for a larger share of the global economy.,Consumers,，,in America at least,，,are acting cautiously with the savings they,re getting at the gas pump,，,as the memory of the recent great recession(,衰退,)is still fresh in their,mind.And,a number of oil-producing countries are trimming their gasoline subsidies and raising taxes,，,so the net savings for global consumers is not as big as the oil price plunge might suggest.,语篇解读,本文论述了石油价格下跌对全球经济增长的影响。,16.What does the author mainly discuss in the passage?,A.The,reasons behind the plunge of oil prices.,B.Possible,ways to stimulate the global economy.,C.The,effect of falling oil prices on consumer spending.,D.The,impact of cheap oil on global economic growth.,答案,解析,解析,主旨大意题。由首段最后一句,“,Does that mean the link between lower oil prices and growth has weakened,？,”,可知，文章讲述的是石油价格下跌与全球经济增长之间的联系，故选,D,。,17,18,16,19,20,17.Why do some experts believe cheap oil will stimulate the global economy?,A.Manufacturers,can produce consumer goods at a much lower cost.,B.Consumers,will spend their saving from cheap oil on other goods.,C.L
