题目材料

Many economists believe that a high rate of business savings in the United States is a necessary precursor to investment, because business savings, as opposed to personal savings, comprise almost three-quarters of the national savings rate, and the national savings rate heavily influences the overall rate of business investment. These economists further postulate that real interest rates-the difference between the rates charged by lenders and the inflation rates-will be low when national savings exceed business investment (creating a savings surplus), and high when national savings fall below the level of business investment (creating a savings deficit ). However, during the 1960's real interest rates were often higher when the national savings surplus was large. Counter-intuitive behavior also occurred when real interest rates skyrocketed from 2 percent in 1980 to 7 percent in 1982, even though national savings and investments were roughly equal throughout the period. Clearly, real interest rates respond to influences other than the savings/investment nexus. Indeed, real interest rates may themselves influence swings in the savings and investment rates. As real interest rates shot up after 1979, foreign investors poured capital into the United States, the price of domestic goods increased prohibitively abroad, and the price of foreign-made goods became lower in the United States. As a result, domestic economic activity and the ability of businesses to save and invest were restrained.

Acontrasting trends in two historical periods
Bpresenting evidence that calls into question certain beliefs
Cexplaining the reasons for a common phenomenon
Dcriticizing evidence offered in support of a well-respected belief
Ecomparing conflicting interpretations of a theory

gmat文章素有喜新厌旧的特点，第一句就是Many economists believe that... 后面有 However转折，说明是对观点的不认可，然后就可以范围缩小到B和D。D选项说文中critic的是个well-respected belief，而文中并没有提及这一点，所以最后选B

C is incorrect as the passage doesnt say the phenomenon is common. (often in 60s, but maybe not in other periods)

文章结构：
先陈述以往被广泛接受的观点的观点:real interest rates will be low when national savings exceed business investment , and high when national savings fall below the level of business investment 。
然后转折;
通过举出反例来指出这个理论不成立
从而得出新的观点：Clearly, real interest rates respond to influences other than the savings investment nexus. Indeed, real interest rates may themselves influence swings in the savings and investment rat

1.理论：高商业储备是投资的前兆
2.理论：实际利率和储备投资量差成反比（量差大利率低，因为市场上的有价值投资项目满了，不需要你的钱了）
3.事实现象：60年代量差大的时候利率依旧很高
4.事实现象：80年代市场均衡时利率依旧在升高
5.原因1:实际利率受到其他因素的影响
6.原因2:实际利率对量差有反向对影响，因为利率高国外的资金涌入，同时本国产品生产成本变高，外国产品相对便宜，本国产品在国际市场贵生产者赚不到钱所以没钱储备进行再生产，本国经济乏力，因此储备和投资都维持在一个较低的但是均衡的水平，正好解释了80年代发生的均衡利率高现象（个人观点，不对勿喷

文章里都没有说evidence offered in support of a well-respected belief，（只说了质疑这个belief的evidence），何来criticize呢？要说criticize也是criticize这个belief，而不是它的evidence

文章重点在于however后面的观点以及论证该观点的过程
文章结构为
观点1
however，两个反例
观点2，提出观点1的不足之处。
解释观点2。
所以应该是提出观点1不足的证据并论证
