The government in the past week has authorized $2.63 billion in aid, including
potable water, food and temporary jobs for most affected areas, rural communities 2.______
in 19 of Mexico’s 31 states. But officials warned that no serious relief was expected
for at least other five months, when the rainy season typically begins in earnest. 3.______
Among the most seriously drought-striking communities are tribal areas 4.______
of the Tarahumara indigenous community in the Sierra Madre, in the north.
When false reports of a mass suicide brought in by hunger surfaced recently, 5.______
journalists and aid organizations poured in to shed light on the situation.
Nearly 7 percent of the country’s agriculture land, mostly in the north 6.______
and center, has suffered total loss. The drought, that has been compounded 7.______
by freezing temperatures, has already pushed up the cost of some produce,
including corn and beans. It might cause inflation to rise later this year.
Some of the most devastated areas are hard to reach, speeding the flow 8.______
of aid to a trickle. The Red Cross is sending 70-pound sacks of rice, beans

had dried up but that the harvest of what remains has continued. [br]
选项
答案
speeding——slowing
解析
本题为逻辑错误。根据句子的意思,有些重灾区地处偏僻,很难到达,肯定减缓了救援的进度,而非加快,故用slowing更符合原文。
