A market is commonly thought of as a place where commodities are bought and sold. Thus fruit and vegetables are sold wholesale at Covent Garden Market and meat is sold wholesale at Smithfield Market. But there are markets for things【C1】______commodities, in the usual【C2】______. There are【C3】______estate markets, foreign exchange markets, labour markets, short-term capital markets, and so on; there may be a market for anything that has a price. And there may be no particular place to which dealings are【C4】______. Buyers and sellers may be【C5】______over the whole world and instead of actually meeting together in a market-place they may deal with one another【C6】______telephone, telegram, cable or letter.【C7】______dealings are【C8】______to a particular place, the dealers may consist wholly or in part of agents【C9】______instructions from clients far away. Thus agents buy meat at Smithfield【C10】______retail butchers all over England; and【C11】______on the London Stock Exchange buy and sell【C12】______on instructions from clients all over the world. We must therefore define a market as any area over which buyers and sellers are in such close touch with one another, either directly or through【C13】______,【C14】______the prices【C15】______in one part of the market affect the prices paid in other parts.
Modern means of communication are so rapid that a buyer can discover【C16】______by asking, and can accept it if he wishes,【C17】______he may be thousands of miles away. Thus the market for anything is,【C18】______, the whole world. But in fact things have, normally, only a local or national market.
This may be because nearly the whole demand is【C19】______in one locality. These special local demands,【C20】______, are of quite minor importance. The main reason why many things have not a world market is that they are costly or difficult to transport. [br] 【C17】
选项
A、although
B、while
C、unless
D、since
答案
A
解析
篇章题。篇章结构题。前面句子表示“现代通信非常快捷,买方可以获知卖方提出的价格,如愿意便可接受”,后句表示“他可能在千里之外”,可见两者之间为转折关系。although“虽然,尽管”,用于主句之后,引出补充说明,如:He wrote her a letter a day,although he was in the same city.尽管同住一个城市,他却每天给她写一封信。从句中如用了although,主句中不能再用连接词but,但可用副词yet,nevertheless等。此处,although含义与用法均符合题意,因此为正确答案。
