A market is commonly thought of as a place where commodities are bought and sold. Thus fruit and vegetables are sold wholesale at Covent Garden Market and meat is sold wholesale at Smithfield Market. But there are markets for things【C1】______commodities, in the usual【C2】______. There are【C3】______estate markets, foreign exchange markets, labour markets, short-term capital markets, and so on; there may be a market for anything that has a price. And there may be no particular place to which dealings are【C4】______. Buyers and sellers may be【C5】______over the whole world and instead of actually meeting together in a market-place they may deal with one another【C6】______telephone, telegram, cable or letter.【C7】______dealings are【C8】______to a particular place, the dealers may consist wholly or in part of agents【C9】______instructions from clients far away. Thus agents buy meat at Smithfield【C10】______retail butchers all over England; and【C11】______on the London Stock Exchange buy and sell【C12】______on instructions from clients all over the world. We must therefore define a market as any area over which buyers and sellers are in such close touch with one another, either directly or through【C13】______,【C14】______the prices【C15】______in one part of the market affect the prices paid in other parts.
Modern means of communication are so rapid that a buyer can discover【C16】______by asking, and can accept it if he wishes,【C17】______he may be thousands of miles away. Thus the market for anything is,【C18】______, the whole world. But in fact things have, normally, only a local or national market.
This may be because nearly the whole demand is【C19】______in one locality. These special local demands,【C20】______, are of quite minor importance. The main reason why many things have not a world market is that they are costly or difficult to transport. [br] 【C8】
选项
A、fixed
B、determined
C、restricted
D、restrained
答案
C
解析
篇章题。上下文理解题。原因同上题。既然是与买卖双方不聚集在一起的情况相反,那么当然就是局限于某一特定地点。选项restrict意为“限制,约束”,指在一个范围之内,不超越界限,如:Discussion at the meeting is restricted to the agenda.这次会上的讨论只限于议程上的项目。可见,restrict正合题意,为正确答案。fix“使固定,使牢固”,指固定不动摇,如:fix the notice to the board with tacks用钉子把布告钉到木板上。“固定在某个地方不动”与“不聚集在一起”不形成相反的意义,因此,此选项与上下文不符。determine也有“限制,限定”之意。主要指范围终止的界限,如:The river determined the edge of the property.那条河成了地产的界限。此选项含义与用法均与本题不符。restrain也有“限制,限定”的意义,但指对人的行动自由进行约束和限制,介词用from,如:A wise government shall restrain men from injuring one another.明智的政府会阻止人们彼此伤害。可见,此选项含义与用法都与本题不符。
