问题 The troubled U. S. -Canada relationship might be fixed by______.
  
The relationship between the U. S. and Canada should be as placid as Lake Ontario on a calm summer day. The border is undefended. Their peoples seem like cousins. Each is the other’s largest single trading partner. Yet there has been serious friction between the two neighbors in recent years — friction that might now be eased by the surprise election of a new Canadian Prime Minister.
When an economic crisis looms, Russians go shopping. As the ruble crashed through new lows last month, tills buzzed late into the night in the mega-malls that surround Moscow’s ring road as Muscovites rushed to buy Ikea sofas, new cars and washing machines. Russian state television, attempting to put a cheerful spin on the ruble’s collapse, reported the panic buying as a " consumer boom".

选项 A、An economic boom.
B、An economic crisis.
C、Panic purchase behavior.
D、Consumption of household appliances.

答案C

解析 原文指出卢布贬值使俄国人陷入突发性抢购当中,俄罗斯国家电视台戏称其为“消费热”。所以,卢布贬值的后果应该是C,突发性抢购行为。Ikea,宜家,是来自瑞典的全球知名家具和家居品牌。
