A scientist who does research in economic psychology and who wants to predict the way in which consumers will spend their money must study consumer behavior. He must obtain (1)_____ both on resources of consumers and on the motives that (2)_____ to encourage or discourage money spending.
If an (3)_____ were asked which of three groups borrow most—people with rising incomes, (4)_____ incomes, or declining incomes—he would (5)_____ answer: those with declining incomes. Actually, in the years 1997—2000, the answer was: people with rising incomes. People with declining incomes were next and people with stable incomes borrowed the (6)_____. This shows us that traditional (7)_____ about earning and spending are not always (8)_____ Another traditional assumption is that if people who have money expect prices to go up, they will (9)_____ to buy. If they expect prices to go down, they will postpone buying. (10)_____ research surveys have shown that this is not always (11)_____ The expectations of price increases may not stimulate buying. One (12)_____ attitude was ex-pressed by the wife of a mechanic in an interview at a time of rising prices. Her family had been planning to buy a new car but they postponed this purchase. (13)_____, the rise in prices that has al-ready taken place may be resented and buyer’s resistance may be evoked.
The (14)_____ mentioned above was carried out in America. Investigations (15)_____ at the same time in Great Britain, however, yielded results that were more (16)_____ traditional assumptions about saving and spending patterns. The condition most contributive to spending (17)_____ to be price stability. If prices have been stable and people consider that they are (18)_____, they are likely to buy. Thus, it appears that the common (19)_____ policy of maintaining stable prices is based on a correct understanding of (20)_____ psychology.
选项
A、comprehensible
B、understandable
C、responsible
D、reliable
答案
D
解析
语义衔接题。本文第二段前三句指出:如果一名经济学家被问及收入增加、收入稳定和收入减少的三种人中,哪种人借钱最多。他可能回答是那些收入减少者。事实上,在1997—2000年间,答案是收入增加者借钱最多,收入减少者次之,而收入不变者借钱最少。这说明现在的观点和过去的观点不同。第四句是对前三句进行总结,由句子之间的语义逻辑关系可以推断出traditional assumption(传统假定)是不可靠的。reliable意为"可靠的",如:It’s not reliable to judge a man only by his looks.(单凭容貌来判断一个人是不可靠的)。comprehensible意为"可理解的,能懂的",understandable意为"可以理解的",responsible意为"负责的",均与上下文语义不符。
