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.
【C9】

选项 A、in effect
B、in the light of
C、in short
D、in part

答案D

解析 本填空考查惯用词组。四个选项分别是A项in effect(起作用,生效)、B项in the light of(根据,考虑到)、C项in short(简而言之)和D项in part(部分地)。原文信息中出现了一个词汇线索arises from,表示“起因于,产生于”,定位了这个线索就可以理解后面的原文信息American beliefs about personal freedom实际上是一个原因,综合上述原文线索,可得出D项in part最为合适,即“这种对私有产权的侧重一部分源于美国人对于个人自由的信仰”,所以答案为D项。
