最明显的错误是like不能用在举例,排除ABE。接着注意这是一道全划线题目,所以需要理一下原句的意思,原文大概是想讲 商品像household appliances and automobiles会根据经济周期出现变动,但是商品non-durable goods like food and shelter一般会保持稳定。·要读出前后存在一个比较,durable goods和non-durable goods的对比。C非常对称,前半句是spending on durable goods,后半句是spending on non-durable goods,中间用一个转折whereas,很完美。再看D,前半句和C的前半句差异很明显,这里D的重心完全变了
