What does the expression "People are holding tight to their money" (Line 1, Paragraph 2) mean？
A．People are saving more money to donate.
B．People become stingy even with more money earned.
C．People are donating less due to their tight financial situations.
D．People are now more concerned about how their donations are spent.
参考答案
正确答案：C
解析：句义题；需要我们结合上下文进行推断，在第二段后面的分析中我们可以看到，本段仍然在讨论人们对于慈善事业的支持在减弱，善款在减少，而隐藏在这之后的原因，是人们挣的钱由于经济下滑而减少了。那么作为引语出现的“People are holding tight to their money”在意义上应该和原文保持一致。比较阅读4个选项，C选项的分析是正确的。
