The long years of food shortage in this country have suddenly
given way to apparent abundance. Stores and shops are choked with
food. Rationing is virtual suspended, and overseas suppliers have【S1】______
been asked to hold back deliveries. Yet, instead of joy, there is
widespread easiness and confusion. Why do food prices keep on【S2】______
rising when there seems to be so much more food about? Is the
abundance only temporary, but has it come to stay? Does it mean【S3】______
that we need to think less now about producing more food at home?
No one knows what to expect.
The recent growth of export surpluses on the world food market
have certainly been unexpectedly great, partly because of a strange【S4】______
sequence of two successful grain harvests. North America is now being
followed by a three. Most of Britain’s overseas suppliers of meat, too,【S5】______
are offering more this year and home production has also arisen.【S6】______
But the effect of all this on the food situation in this country has【S7】______
made worse by a simultaneous rise in food prices, due chiefly for the【S8】______
gradual cutting down of government support for food. The shops are
overstocked with food not only as there is more food available, but【S9】______
also because people, frightened by high prices, are buying less
of it.
Moreover, the rise in domestic prices has come at a time when
world prices have begun to fall, with the result which imported food,【S10】______
with the exception of grain, is often cheaper than the home-
produced variety. And now grain prices, too, are falling.
Consumers are beginning to ask why they should not be enabled to
benefit from this trend. [br] 【S3】
选项
答案
but—or
解析
连词误用。此处提出了一系列的问题,表达人们对粮食囤积这一现象的困惑。句意为“食品的这种丰富现象是暂时的,还是会长期持续下去呢?”可见两个分句之间是选择关系,因此应该使用or而不是but。
