问题 Since the Great Depression, the United States government has protected farmers from damaging drops in grain prices.

选项 A、slight
B、surprising
C、sudden
D、harmful

答案D

解析 根据构词法:划线词的前部分是damage“破坏”,即damaging是动词damage的分词,所以推测该词义大概是“破坏的”。而备选答案都是常见词汇,其中只有harmful是“破坏的”,因此可以推断harmful是答案。该句含义是“自从经济大萧条以后,美国政府一直在努力避免农民由于粮食价格的下降而遭受损失”。
