问题 Besides giving three hundred-dollars to each taxpayer this year, what else did the democratic lawmakers propose?
Democratic lawmakers are proposing that the government give three hundred-dollars to each taxpayer this year. They also would lower the tax rate on earnings for low-income taxpayers. These measures would cost sixty-thousand-million dollars.
     President Bush argued against the proposals this week in a speech on the economy. Mister Bush said he agrees with the idea of an immediate tax cut. But he said it would have to be connected to his tan-year tax reduction plan.
     The President said Americans are not likely to make major investments, like buying a house or starting a business, based on one tax cut. Mister Bush said these Americans need to feel secure about the long-term economic performance of the United States.

选项 A、Raise the tax rate on earnings for low-income taxpayers.
B、Lower the tax rate on earnings for low-income taxpayers.
C、Raise the tax rate on earnings for high-income taxpayers.
D、Lower the tax rate on earnings for high-income taxpayers.

答案B

解析 根据第一段第二句话“They also would lower the tax rate on earnings for low-income taxpayers. ”答案应为B。
