选项 A、invalid
B、inefficient
C、ineffective
D、insufficient
答案 B
解析 语义衔接题。此处是说产品大规模生产对“个人对个人”销售方式产生的影响。根据下面提到的The mass distribution of goods…made person-to-person selling too slow…可知，产品的大规模生产使“个人对个人”这种销售方式变得效率很低，故选[B]inefficient“效率低的”。[A]invalid和[C]ineffective为近义词，意为“无效的”，过于绝对，与此处语义不符；[D]insufficient“不足的”。
