Such production and【C3】______focuses on the needs of the seller to produce goods and then【C4】______them into money.
    Marketing,【C5】______, focuses on the wants of consumers. It begins with first analyzing the【C6】______and demands of consumers and the producing goods that will satisfy them. This eye-on-the-consumer approach is known as the marketing concept, which simply means that【C7】______trying to sell【C8】______is easiest to produce or buy for resale, the makers and dealers first【C9】______to find out what the consumer wants to buy and then【C10】______making it【C11】______for【C12】______.
    This concept does not imply that business is benevolent or that consumer satisfaction is given【C13】______over profit in a company.

选项 A、alter
B、modify
C、convert
D、switch

答案 C

解析 词汇题。词义辨析题。这几个词都含有变化的意义,其中alter意为“变更,更改,修改”,指在某些方面做出改变,但不失去本质的东西,如:He altered his will after heheard the news.他听到那个消息后,修改了遗嘱。modify也表“变更,修改”,但强调为适应新需要而进行的改变,如:In the newsituation,they promised to modify the termsof the contract.面临新情况,他们答应修正合同条款。switch“改变,转变”,指一种事物到另一种事物的转换,常用switch from…to…,如:You’d better switch the conver-sation to a lighter subject.你最好把谈话转移到一个更轻松的话题上。convert“变换”,指使某物转变成另一种形式、物质、状态等,常用convert into,如:Such high temperature cannot convert water into ice.这么高的温度不能将水变成冰。本句的含义为将这些生产出来的产品转化为货币的形式,根据以上对各选项的分析,convert不仅含义与其相符。用法也与本句相符,因此,为正确答案。
