The U.S. dollar was supposed to be at the end of its rope. Kicking the bucket. Well, maybe not. The dollar continues to【C1】________gloom-and-doom predictions. After a swoon (低速) last year, the dollar is again enjoying a major rally. The U.S. dollar index, which【C2】________the dollar’s value against other major currencies, is just off an eight-month high.
The main reason behind the dollar’s【C3】________is actually no real surprise at all. There is no alternative able to replace the dollar as the world’s No.l currency. Sure, the U.S. budget deficit is expanding, the government’s debt is increasing, and Wall Street is still【C4】________itself. But the dollar remains the prettiest of a flock of ugly ducklings. Is any other major industrialized economy【C5】________better off than the U.S.? Not really. Just about the【C6】________developed world is suffering with the same problems. That’s why when investors get nervous, they still rush to the good old dollar. The dollar wins because no one else is really in the game.
The euro has been exposed as a【C7】________. Only a few months ago, economists truly believed the euro could【C8】________the dollar as the top reserve currency. Now experts are questioning if the euro has a future at all. The Greek debt crisis has【C9】________that the euro is only as strong as its weakest link.
And after the euro, where do global investors turn? The yen? Japan’s economy, with higher government debt and crushing deflation (通货紧缩), has even deeper structural problems than America’s. Maybe over the next 20 or 30 years, the dollar will slowly lose the dominant status it holds today.
That process, 【C10】________, could well be driven by the appearance of new rivals.
A) absolute E) concise I) recovery M) measures
B) fraud F) revealed J) rival N) partially
C) relieving G) defy K) slump O) repairing
D) however H) entire L) particularly
【C7】
选项
答案
B
解析
根据空格前的不定冠词a可知,此处应填可数名词。下文questioning一词表明欧元的实力受到质疑,而曾经经济学家是相信它成为第一储备货币的实力。据此可推断此处应该想表达欧元是个“骗人的东西”这一含义,fraud符合文意。
