A British professor has【S1】______a mathematical formula to help people find out【S2】______how much an hour of their time is worth. Professor Ian Walker of Warwick University【S3】______the value of time after research showed that over 80 percent of 【S4】______would buy more time if they could afford it. "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. For example, for a professional working in London and earning 25 000 pounds a year, an hour would be worth 6. 44 pounds. Cooking dinner would cost 5. 37 pounds【S10】______to get a takeaway, once you add the cost of the raw materials needed to make it yourself.

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。
