He says it is the poor 【C3】______ would suffer the most from the change. He says heat waves in different parts of the world are making people ill and 【C4】______ many deaths.

Those who depend on agriculture for their 【C10】______ , he says, would be 【C11】______ affected by the decrease. "At the global level, with the decline in agricultural 【C12】______ , in the largest countries of the world or the most 【C13】______ countries of the world, we will find that food stocks will 【C14】______ ," Pachauri said. "And, as a matter of fact, that has already started happening. The result of that will be a(n) 【C15】______ in food prices. Now, 【C16】______ in turn, hits the poorest of the poor very badly.

选项
A、decrease
B、increase
C、inflate
D、deflate
答案
B
解析
语义衔接题。根据上文可知本句的句意是“粮食储备减少的结果就是食品价格的上涨”。因此A decrease“下降”首先可以排除。C inflate“膨胀,通货膨胀”和D deflate“收缩,通货紧缩”也不符题意,只有B increase符合题意。
