The important factor in a private-enterprise economy is that individuals are allowed to own productive resources (private property), and they are permitted to hire labor, gain control over natural resources, and produce goods and services for sale at a profit. In the American economy, the concept of private property embraces not only the ownership of productive resources but also certain rights, including the right to determine the price of a product or to make a free contract with another private individual.

　　本文第三段第一句话指出“The important factor in a private-enterprise economy is that individuals are allowed to own productive resources (private property) , and they are permitted to hire labor, gain control over natural resources, and produce goods and services for sale at a profit”(私有企业经济的一个重要因素是允许个人拥有生产资料(私有财产)，允许他们雇佣劳动力，控制自然资源，通过生产产品、提供服务来获取利润)，第二句话进一步指出“In the American economy, the concept of private property embraces not only the ownership of productive resources but also certain rights, including the right to determine the price of a product or to make a free contract with another private individual”(在美国经济中，私有财产的概念不仅包括生产资料的所有权，也包括一定的其它权利，比如，产品价格的决定权或与其他私有个体的自由签约权)，这说明了private property包含了两个方面。而四个选项中只有A选项包含了这两个方面，因此A是正确答案。
