问题 What can be forecast if an eye is seen in the center of a storm by visible satellite imagery?
  
Visible satellite imagery can help forecasters determine whether or not there’s a clear eye in the center of a storm. An eye is a sign of a strong storm, and a clear eye is a sign of a storm that’s intensifying in a hurry.
In the United States, while the real GDP growth outlook for 2018 is unchanged at 2.9 percent, the forecast for 2019 has been revised down to 2.5 percent due to the recently announced trade measures. The growth in the Euro area will slow to 1.9 percent in 2019, compared to 2.9 percent in 2018 and growth fall of African countries may be more remarkable.

选项 A、The United States.
B、Europe.
C、Africa.
D、Asia.

答案C

解析 特定信息的找寻与判断。原文涉及三个地区的实际GDP增长衰退情况。美国为“…real GDP growth outlook for 2018…2.9 percent,the forecast for 2019…down to 2.5 percent”,即从2.9%跌至 2.5%;欧洲为“slow to 1.9 percent in 2019,compared to 2.9 percent in 2018”,即从2.9%跌至1.9%。由此判断,欧洲地区衰退率比美国更高。再根据欧洲情况之后所述“growth fall of African countries may be more remarkable”,非洲国家衰退可能比欧洲更显著,因此可判断,非洲是所述三个地区中有可能实际GDP增长衰退最明显的。选项D中的亚洲并未在本段涉及,因此本题应选择选项C。把握细节信息,加以处理与判断,抓住表示比较的数字和表达是判断本题选项的关键。
