Home prices slid in November, raising questions about whether the housing recovery is robust enough to maintain a sustained turnaround. From October to November, home prices fell 0.2% after【1】0.1% in October, according to a report Tuesday by Standard & Poor’s/Case-Shiller’s home price index.【2】five of the 20 metro areas【3】by the index saw price increases for the month.
On a(n)【4】basis, prices were 5.3% lower in November than in November 2008. Prices were the same as in late 2003. "What we’ve seen【5】the past couple of months is that the pace of【6】has fallen down," says Maureen Maitland of Standard & Poor’s. "Some markets have【7】Is that because we haven’t【8】the foreclosure (回赎权的取消) cycle? Because of unemployment? We’re not seeing the【9】we were seeing in the last summer months. "
Metro areas that have seen a retreat in home prices【10】Seattle, Charlotte, Las Vegas and Tampa. All four【11】gains they made in recent months【12】.【13】, for the 20-metro index, the annual rate of decline is improving. That【14】, with other recent housing reports that show prices【15】or accelerating, could point to【16】the housing market is starting to【17】its footing, some economists say. Existing home sale prices were $178 300 in December, which is 1.5% higher than December 2008, according to a report this week by the National Association of Realtors. That was the first year-over-year【18】in median price since August 2007.
"The most【19】thing we can say is not only the market is stabilizing, but we’ve seen that housing demand is strong," says Bernard Baumohl, with the Economic Outlook Group. "Housing probably will continue to climb upwards through the summer,【20】it could slip a little as the tax credit expires. "
选项
A、documented
B、retraced
C、increased
D、tracked
答案
D
解析
空格所在句中主谓宾结构完整,因此空格处及其后面的by the index一起构成主语的修饰成分。由by结构可知这里index与metro areas为逻辑上的被动关系,而且根据句意与常识猜测,空格所填词应含有“跟踪;记录”的意思,四个选项中只有[A]与[D]都含有“记录”的意思。其中document作动词时,一般指的是将某件事情记录成文字、电影和照片等媒体形式,其目的是用来传播所记录的内容。而track一般指的是对某一个事物进行跟踪记录,目的是发现和探索该事物的变化规律或者起因。这里指的是对房价的观察,因此用track较为贴切。[B] retraced与[C] increased与句意不符,因此可以排除。
