Inflation is a problem for all consumers. People who live on a【C5】______income are hurt the【C6】______. Retired people, for instance, cannot【C7】______on an increase in income as prices rise.

Many retired people must cut their spending to【C11】______up with rising prices. In many cases they must stop buying some necessary items, such as food and clothing.【C12】______for working people whose incomes are going up, inflation can be a problem. The【C13】______of living goes up, too. People who work must have even more money to keep up their standard of living. Just buying the things they need costs more.

选项
A、rely
B、rest
C、depend
D、count
答案
D
解析
语义衔接题。Retired people也是工资固定的人,那么他们的收入就不会随着价格的上涨而增加,也就是说他们不能指望工资增加,故答案为[D]count。count on意为“依赖,指望”。rely on强调根据经验判断某人或某物在给予支持和帮助方面不会令人失望:depend on强调由于自身存在弱点或不能自立而需要别人的支持:rest on意为“被搁在,停留在”。
