It had【S6】______too often that they sold their wheat soon after harvest when farm debts were coming due, only to see prices rising and speculators getting rich. On various【S7】______, producer groups asked for firmer controls, but governments had no wish to become involved, at least not until wartime wheat prices threatened to run wild.
【S8】______to check inflation and rising living costs, the federal government appointed a board of grain supervisors to handle deliveries from the crops of 1917 and 1918. Grain Exchange trading was【S9】______, and farmers sold at prices fixed by the board. To handle the crop of 1919, the government appointed the first Canadian Wheat Board, with【S10】______authority to buy, sell, and set prices.
A)happened I)appointed

选项
答案
D
解析
形容词填空。包含该空的词组“______ to check inflation and rising living costs,”是一个分词作(原因)状语的结构。根据语法规则,如果作状语的分词是系表结构(being+形容词)时,我们可以省略being而直接用形容词。根据以上句法分析以及语境的意思,我们可以确定[D]anxious为正确答案。
