The federal government 【B7】______ poverty line as a minimum 【B8】______ of income 【B9】______ for basic maintenance of a family or four. This amount may fluctuated【B10】______the cost of living and the location of the family. In 1998, a family of four with an annual income below $ 16,530 was classified【B11】______living in poverty.
The percentage of people living below poverty line dropped from 22.4 percent in 1959 to 11.4 percent in 1978. But【B12】______, it has fluctuated in a fairly narrow range. In 1998, it stood at 12.7 percent.

选项
A、added
B、aggravated
C、reduced
D、abolished
答案
C
解析
考查动词辨析。根据语境可知,空格处所填动词应和空前“have made some progress”的意义保持一致,因此首先可以排除added“增加”和aggravated“使加重”。abolished意为“消除,废除”,显然不成立,故答案为C.reduced,意为“减少”。
