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)_____.

选项
A、attend
B、intend
C、tend
D、pretend
答案
C
解析
词汇辨析题。本句意为:他必须获得有关消费者来源及导致促进或阻碍消费动机的数据。tend意为"趋向,有…的趋势",tend后通常与不定式结构连用。显然,tend用在本句中既符合语义关系,又符合句子的语法要求。attend意为"参加,照看",是及物动词,后面应直接跟宾语;intend意为"打算",主语是人,不能是物;pretend意为"假装"。
