A. flawless  D. durable       G. many appreciate in value

选项
答案C,E,I
解析 通读句子发现，空格(i)和空格(ii)证明了两个结论，那么解题线索自然来自于分号后面。分号后面在说他们的购买者有很多钱愿意花在这些商品上(their purchasers have so much money they can spend it on goods)，说明这些商品很贵，并且空格(iii)后面也再次告诉我们这些商品很贵，所以前两个空格中就有一个要体现出“很贵”这样的概念，空格(i)选择C选项。空格(i)证明了空格(iii)前后的语句，那么空格(iii)由谁来证明呢?只能是空格(ii)，所以空格(ii)和(iii)是一对同义概念。那么问题来了，很多同学空格(i0会错选D或F。如果选择D选项的话，那么DG、DH都是合理组合，你因为durable而选择了这些宝石，就说明这些宝石有升值的可能，同时也能说明你具备一定的鉴赏力。如果空格(ii)选择F，理由也是一样的，FG、FH也都可以选择，所以这里我们只能选择E和I。E项useless(无用的)及I项serve no practical purpose(没有实际用途)符合句意。
