单选题 We know from the first paragraph that ______.

A、 new figures from the three European countries show the prediction of forecasters is exactly right
B、 European economy gets on better than forecasters have predicted
C、 all of the forecasters expect the fully figure to show a reduction
D、 in three European countries the consumer spending continues to rise

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】[解析] 由第一段第一句：从法国等国获得的新数据表明，对欧洲大陆的经济危机的预测可能有所夸大，可知A项与题意不符；C项过于绝对，文中的原词是generally(通常，一般地)；D项中指三个欧洲国家的消费情况，文中仅谈到France，所以D项错误。
