A market is commonly thought of as a place where commodities are bought and sold. Thus fruit and vegetables are sold wholesale at Covent Garden Market and meat is sold wholesale at Smithfield Market. But there are markets for things【C1】______commodities, in the usual【C2】______. There are【C3】______estate markets, foreign exchange markets, labour markets, short-term capital markets, and so on; there may be a market for anything that has a price. And there may be no particular place to which dealings are【C4】______. Buyers and sellers may be【C5】______over the whole world and instead of actually meeting together in a market-place they may deal with one another【C6】______telephone, telegram, cable or letter.【C7】______dealings are【C8】______to a particular place, the dealers may consist wholly or in part of agents【C9】______instructions from clients far away. Thus agents buy meat at Smithfield【C10】______retail butchers all over England; and【C11】______on the London Stock Exchange buy and sell【C12】______on instructions from clients all over the world. We must therefore define a market as any area over which buyers and sellers are in such close touch with one another, either directly or through【C13】______,【C14】______the prices【C15】______in one part of the market affect the prices paid in other parts.
Modern means of communication are so rapid that a buyer can discover【C16】______by asking, and can accept it if he wishes,【C17】______he may be thousands of miles away. Thus the market for anything is,【C18】______, the whole world. But in fact things have, normally, only a local or national market.
This may be because nearly the whole demand is【C19】______in one locality. These special local demands,【C20】______, are of quite minor importance. The main reason why many things have not a world market is that they are costly or difficult to transport.
【C18】
选项
A、definitely
B、potentially
C、incidentally
D、readily
答案
B
解析
篇章题。上下文理解题。此句作者提出了世界范围的市场的形成,后面句首的but引出了与世界市场相反的现实情况——区域性,因此,作者不可能对世界市场的形成抱有绝对的把握,最多只是一种推测。因此,definitely“绝对地”可排除。而potentially“有潜力地,可能地”则符合表达作者不太肯定的推论。incidentally“偶然地,顺便提及”,如:In this discussion grave questions were incidentally brought up.在这次讨论中,一些重大问题被偶然提了出来。readily“乐意地,欣然地”,如:He readily agreed to help us.他欣然同意帮助我们。可见,后两个选项也不符题意。
