问题 Which of the following will be most influenced by the rise in grain prices?
The increase in grain prices is already being felt around the world. But the economic effects of the sharp rise in agricultural commodities have barely begun. A jump of 30-50 per cent in benchmark corn, wheat and soybean prices has revived memories of the world’s last food crisis in 2007-2008, and large consumers from E-gypt and Morocco to South Korea and Chinese Taiwan are bracing for a renewed bout of food inflation. Marc Sadler, head of agriculture risk management at the World Bank, told the press that "for sure there is growing concern across the world from developing countries about what this may mean for them."(6)The biggest impact is likely to be on countries dependent on agricultural imports and some of the poorer net food importers in sub-Saharan Africa. Moreover, the strength of the dollar is causing an additional worry. Unlike in 2007-2008, when the rise in grain prices coincided with a weaker dollar, this time the reverse is true.

选项 A、Countries dependent on agricultural imports.
B、Countries dependent on agricultural exports.
C、Countries that benefit from stronger dollars.
D、Countries that benefit from weaker dollars.
