本题考查推理引申。第一段首句提到巴腾渥德得到的两条建议。第一条建议是:“经济方面的坏消息对于债券市场来说却是好消息”。由此可知,从经济领域和证券市场中一方的状况可以反推出另一方的状况。因此[D]正确,be indicative of sth.意为“表明,暗示,标示”。第二条建议是:“美国联邦储备局前主席说的话都是金玉良言”。由此只能推知这位美国联邦储备局前主席说的话很有分量,不能推出他“喜欢评论(enjoyed making comments)”。从该句可知,沃尔克曾通过重踏来势迅猛的通货膨胀重建了央行的信誉。restore一词表明联邦储备局,即,美国的中央银行在控制通货膨胀上也曾经失利,排除[B]。[C]无从推知。
