Wheat yields in recent years were down by more than 10 percent in Russia and by a few percentage points【C2】______ in India, France and China compared with【C3】______ they probably would have been without rising【C4】______, according to the study.
Corn yields were【C5】______ a few percentage points in China, Brazil and France from what would have been【C6】______, said the researchers, whose findings were published in Friday’s【C7】______ of the journal Science.

选项
A、volume
B、publication
C、issue
D、column
答案
C
解析
词义辨析题。他们的调查结果会刊登在周五那一期的《科学》杂志上,需要在空白处填一个名词,表示刊物的某一期,所以选issue。volume指书的册或卷;publication指出版物或出版;column指报纸的专栏,所以均不符合该题的语境。
