The average fuel price in California is______.
(28)A sharp rise in fuel prices in California linked to state supply shortages has forced some petrol stations to close temporarily.
(27)In one part of the Golden State, prices hit $5. 69 a gallon, $1.20 more than the California average. The situation has been magnified by pollution limits requiring a special fuel blend during the summer. Officials insisted California was not running out of petrol, and one refinery has already resumed production. The refinery had gone offline because of a power cut, exacerbating the supply problems.
Fuel price spikes particularly affect the state’s independent petrol station operators, who pay a higher price for their supplies than some national chains. Some have closed down their pumps rather than cut into profit margins. Costco, a giant discount store chain that sells large volumes of petrol, closed 14 of its 40 Los Angeles-area stations. Five were expected to reopen on Friday.
选项
A、$5. 69 a gallon
B、$1. 20 a gallon
C、$6. 89 a gallon
D、$4. 49 a gallon
答案
D
解析
本题考查对新闻内容的理解。句(27)说加利福尼亚某些地区的汽油价格高达5.69美元一加仑,这个价格比加州平均价格高出1.20美元,所以目前加州汽油的平均价格应该为4.49美元(5.69—1.20=4.49),因此D为正确答案。
