A scientist who does research in economic psychology and who wants to predict the way in which consumers will spend their money must study consumer behavior. He must obtain (1)_____ both on resources of consumers and on the motives that (2)_____ to encourage or discourage money spending.
If an (3)_____ were asked which of three groups borrow most—people with rising incomes, (4)_____ incomes, or declining incomes—he would (5)_____ answer: those with declining incomes. Actually, in the years 1997—2000, the answer was: people with rising incomes. People with declining incomes were next and people with stable incomes borrowed the (6)_____. This shows us that traditional (7)_____ about earning and spending are not always (8)_____ Another traditional assumption is that if people who have money expect prices to go up, they will (9)_____ to buy. If they expect prices to go down, they will postpone buying. (10)_____ research surveys have shown that this is not always (11)_____ The expectations of price increases may not stimulate buying. One (12)_____ attitude was ex-pressed by the wife of a mechanic in an interview at a time of rising prices. Her family had been planning to buy a new car but they postponed this purchase. (13)_____, the rise in prices that has al-ready taken place may be resented and buyer’s resistance may be evoked.
The (14)_____ mentioned above was carried out in America. Investigations (15)_____ at the same time in Great Britain, however, yielded results that were more (16)_____ traditional assumptions about saving and spending patterns.

选项
A、most
B、least
C、fewest
D、worst
答案
B
解析
语义衔接题。上一句提到:事实上,在1997至2000年间,答案是那些收入增加者。接着本句又指出:那些收入减少者紧随其后。从第二段首句可知作者提出的是borrow most(借钱最多)的问题,也就是说1997-2000年间,那些收入增加者借钱最多,收入减少者次之,由此推断出收入稳定者肯定是借钱最少的。least是little的最高级,用来修饰不可数名词。most与句子语义矛盾,显然不符合;fewest是few的最高级,用来修饰可数名词,句中borrow的对象是money,因此需要修饰不可数名词的形容词,故排除;worst是bad的最高级,这里不是比较好坏与否,故worst放在此处不恰当。
