问题     The United States is widely recognized to have a private economy because privately owned businesses play【C1】________roles. The American free enterprise system【C2】________private ownership more than public sectors. Private businesses produce【C3】________goods and services,【C4】________almost two-thirds of the nation’s total economic output goes to【C5】________for personal use. The consumer role is【C6】________great, in fact, that the nation is sometimes characterized as having a "【C7】________ economy".
    This emphasis【C8】________private ownership arises,【C9】________, from American beliefs about personal freedom. From the time the nation was【C10】________, Americans have【C11】________excessive government power, and they have sought to【C12】________ government’s authority over individuals—including its role in the economic realm.
    【C13】________, Americans generally believe that an economy largely with private ownership is likely to operate more【C14】________than【C15】________with substantial government ownership. When economic forces are unfettered, Americans believe, supply and demand【C16】________the price of good and services. Prices, in turn, tell businesses what to produce; if people want more of a particular good than the economy is producing, the price of the goods【C17】________. That catches the attention of new or other companies that,【C18】________an opportunity to earn profit, start producing more【C19】________that goods. On the other hand, if people want less of the goods, prices fall and less competitive producers either go out of business or start producing【C20】________ goods.
【C1】

选项 A、insignificant
B、important
C、magnificent
D、respected

答案B

解析 本填空考查形容词,利用同现结构可以定位答案。首先分析整篇文章的中心主线为:The United States is widely recognized to have a private economy(人们普遍认为美国是私有制经济),那么后面的分述信息一定会围绕此主线和倾向展开。根据这个倾向,本填空选择一个形容词定位privately owned businesses在美国起到一个什么作用,这个作用自然是重要作用,因此选项A)insignificant(无关紧要的)明显违反此主题倾向,应排除。而选项C)magnificent(宏大的,庄严的)和D)respected(令人尊重的)均不适合修饰roles,只有选项B)important(重要的)是最符合主线倾向的词语,所以为答案。
