"Traditionally, salaries have【S5】______ an indication of how we are valued at work," Walker, a(n) 【S6】______professor, said in a statement. "However, by looking at salaries against taxation, the cost of living and【S7】______variations, we can see how much an hour of our time is worth whether at work or home." The formula could help in making【S8】______. such as whether to cook a meal or to get a takeaway, or whether to take【S9】______transport or a taxi. Visitors to www. barclaycard. co. uk/timeismoney can find out the value of an hour of their time by entering their salary, the region where they work and what kind of work they do.

选项
答案
B
解析
动词辨析题。空格前有主语,后有名词the value,此处需要填入一个谓语动词。本句说已经有研究显示80%以上的人会在力所能及的情况下花钱购买更多时间,所以有了这个调查结果为基础,下一步要做的就是进一步地进行调查研究了。investigated“调查”符合题意。
