【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.

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。
