In this month, production reached a higher level than sales for the first time since the peak selling period.
F
句意：自销售达到高峰后，本月产量首次超过销售量。从柱形图中可以看出，销售量在D月达到高峰后开始下降，但仍高于生产量，直到F月首次降到生产量以下。故F月的情况与题意相符。
Sales and production both fell in this month, while stock levels were unchanged from the previous month.
H
句意：本月销售量和产量均有下降，而库存量和上月持平。柱形图中只有H月和上一月库存相同，由此便可知题干描述的是H月的情况。
In this month, sales reached a new high, leading to stocks dropping sharply by the end of the month.
D
句意：本月销售创新高，使月底时库存量大幅下降。从柱形图中可以看出D月销售量比之前几个月都要高出很多，在生产量不变的情况下，库存大幅降少。与题干描述内容相符。
Production was raised to its maximum capacity in this month to meet an expected increase in demand.
B
句意：为满足预计增长的需求，本月产量达到了极限。可以看出在B月生产量比上月增加后再未增加过，可知已达到极限。符合题意。
As a result of continuing high sales figures, this month saw a further reduction in stocks before the company began to build them up again.
E
句意：因销售持续火爆，本月库存量进一步下降，此后公司开始补货。继上月的销售高峰，E月销售仍然火爆，库存量降到最低，后又持续增加，与题干表述内容一致。
