求高人帮我解释一个英语考研阅读理解中的一个题
Consumersseemonlyconcerned,notpanicked,andmanysaytheyremainoptimisticabouttheeconomy'slong-termprospects,evenastheydosomemodestbelt-tightening.
12.Howdothepublicfeelaboutthecurrenteconomicsituation?
[A]Optimistic.[B]Confused.[C]Carefree.[D]Panicked.
这道题是04年阅读理解第三篇
并且根据就是上面文章中的这段,可是这段中明明写的是remainoptimisticabouttheeconomy'slong-termprospects,人们对经济的长远前景感到乐观而不是现在啊,所以我一直在纠结.
