问题     One in six. Believe it or not, that’ s the number of Americans who struggle with hunger. To make tomorrow a little better, Feeding America, the nation’ s largest【C1】______ hunger relief organization , has chosen September as Hunger Action Month. As part of its 30 Ways in 30 Days program , it’ s asking【C2】______ across the country to help the more than 200 food banks and 61,000 agencies in its network provide low income individuals and families with the fuel they need to【C3】______
    It’ s the kind of work that’ s done every day at St. Andrew’ s Episcopal Church in San Antonio. People who【C4】______ at its front door on the first and third Thursdays of each month aren’ t looking for God—they’ re there for something to eat. St. Andrew’s runs a food pantry (食品室) that【C5】______ the city and several of the【C6】______ towns. Janet Drane is its manager.
    In the wake of the【C7】______ , the number of families in need of food assistance began to grow. It is【C8】______ that 49 million Americans are unsure of where they will find their next meal. What’ s most surprising is that 36% of them live in【C9】______ where at least one adult is working. "It used to be that one job was all you needed," says St. Andrew’ s Drane. "The people we see now have three or four part-time jobs and they’ re still right on the edge【C10】______ "
[A] accumulate [B] circling
[C] communities [D] competition
[E] domestic [F] financially
[G] formally [H] gather
[I] households [J] recession
[K] reported [L] reviewed
[M] serves [N] surrounding
[O] survive
【C7】
选项
答案J
解析 从句子结构分析，介词of后应用名词或动名词作其宾语，故此处需填入名词作短语的中心词。词组in the wake of意为“随着…的到来”，即上下句意为“随着______的到来，需要食品援助的家庭数量开始增加”，由此可推断应该是经济萧条造成的，因此选recession(经济萧条不景气)语义相符。
