B.able to save more money with the increase in his wages

D.Often unable to find work in France

参考答案：A

参考解析：

细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“In this precarious and discourage situation, workmen were willing to work overseas for higher wages”可知，在这种不稳定和令人沮丧的情况下，工人们愿意去海外工作，以获得更高的工资，因此A项是正确的，且C项是错误的；根据第二段第五句“Wages, it is true, had risen”可知，诚然，工资上涨了，但是极端通货膨胀通过食品价格对普通民众的影响却非常严重，因此B项是错误的；D项在文中并未提及。故选A。
