In 1999, the price of oil hovered around $16 a barrel. By 2008, it had【1】the $100 a barrel mark. The reasons for the surge【2】from the dramatic growth of the economies of China and India to widespread【3】in oil-producing regions, including Iraq and Nigeria’s delta region. Triple-digit oil prices have【4】the economic and political map of the world,【5】some old notions of power. Oil-rich nations are enjoying historic gains and opportunities,【6】major importers — including China and India, home to a third of the world’s population—【7】rising economic and social costs.
Managing this new order is fast becoming a central【8】of global politics. Countries that need oil are clawing at each other to【9】scarce supplies, and are willing to deal with any government,【10】how unpleasant, to do it.
In many poor nations with oil, the profits are being lost to corruption, 【11】these countries of their best hope for development. And oil is fueling enormous investment funds run by foreign government, 【12】some in the West see as a new threat.
Countries like Russia, Venezula and Iran are well supplied with rising oil【13】. a charge reflected in newly aggressive foreign policies. But some unexpected countries are reaping benefits, 【14】costs, from higher prices. Consider Germany,【15】it imports virtually all its oil, it has prospered from extensive trade with a booming Russia and the Middle East. German exports to Russia【16】128 percent from 2001 to 2006.
In the United States, as already high gas prices rose【17】higher in the spring of 2008, the issue cropped up in the presidential campaign, with Senator McCain and Obama【18】for a federal gas tax holiday during the peak summer driving months. And driving habits began to【19】. as sales of small cars jumped and mass transport systems【20】the country reported a sharp increase in riders.

选项
A、advanced
B、grew
C、reduced
D、multiplied
答案
B
解析
词汇题(词义选择)。空格所在句子主语是German exports to Russia“德国对俄罗斯的出口”,空格之后128 percent from 2001 to 2006“从2001年到2006年增加了128%”,由此可以推断空格中需要“增加”或者“减少”等类似含义。从前文prospered“繁荣”可以确定空格中需要有“增长”含义的动词,因此选项B项grew“增加”为本题答案。A项advance“前进,进步”、C项reduce“减少,降低”和D项multiply“乘以;繁殖”均不符合题意。
